Orange Cookies

"These orange cookies are soft and tender with plenty of fresh orange flavor, thanks to both zest and juice in the dough, and finished with a spooned-on orange icing that sets beautifully on top.  

A combination of butter and cream gives them a rich, bakery-style texture, while a touch of almond extract adds a little extra depth without sealing the spotlight from the citrus."  Comment from Bake or Break

Citrus pastries are among my favorites.  These orange cookies sound delicious and I need to make them.

Old-Fashioned Cabbage Rolls

"Our version of the traditional cabbage rolls borrows most heavily from the Polish style, which is tender cabbage leaves enveloping a savory mixture of meat, pork, and rice. But to make it Southern (because that's what we do), we've spiced up the tomato sauce with a bit of Creole seasoning. We've also added body and flavor to the tomato sauce with the holy trinity, a mixture of bell pepper, onion, and celery."  Comment from Southern Living

Cabbage rolls are one of those meals I have never had and would love to make.  I like the combination of classic and creole.

Crockpot Chili

"This chili isn’t your typical “dump and forget it” crockpot recipe like recipe like most on my blog.  It’s better because it’s slow cooked.

Slow cooking is the first secret to award-winning chili. It blends flavors, tenderizes beans and veggies, and makes the meat juicy and tender.

The second secret is browning first. Sautéing the veggies and browning the beef before adding them to the crockpot adds layers of flavor."  Comment from Chelsea's Messy Apron

Everything about this recipe gets my attention.  Slow cooking is becoming one of my favorite ways of cooking, I love the ingredients and I'm currently in search of a good chili recipe.  I'll let you know when I find it, but this is the first one to get my attention.

"When it comes to comfort food only a few dishes hit the mark quite like these oven-baked smothered pork chops. This recipe turns out subtly seasoned chops nestled in a rich, creamy sauce that’s just begging to be mopped up with a slice of bread or a forkful of mashed potatoes. And the best part? It all comes together in one pan. That means less cleanup and more time to savor every delicious bite."  Comment from Taste of Home
