December 31, 2022 By Lisa 2 Comments

Sausage Frittata I LisaGCooks.com

Sausage Frittata Here it is, New Years Eve. I often find myself nostalgic on this day, almost sad to see something go. With that said I must say I have a great feeling about 2016, I think it’s going to be a wonderful year. I have prepared a recipe inspired by New Years Day Brunch (I thought of breakfast but who was I kidding!?!). Serve this ...

Chicken and Dumpling Soup I LisaGCooks.com

Chicken and Dumpling Soup   This is what we had for dinner tonight and Mike loved it :) I can’t help it, it’s winter and it’s cold and crappy and I love soup.

Nacho Cheese Sauce I LisaGCooks.com

Turkey Ala King

December 27, 2020 By Lisa Leave a Comment

Healthy Turkey Ala King I LisaGCooks.com

Turkey ala King  This recipe is another great example of how a 'cream' sauce doesn't have to be fattening.  I've used 1/2 a tbsp of butter only and that really is enough to give off that great flavour.  Plus, this recipe calls for cooked, lean turkey breast (a shout-out to our thanksgiving dinner) AND it starts with a MASSIVE pan of vegetables!!!  ...
