Recipe Favorites Over the Years

In honor of our 20th anniversary I thought I’d highlight some of our very favorite recipes from years past.  When I looked at some of the posts I noticed that I still make a lot of them in exactly the same way.  The rest have evolved over the years because I don’t always look at the written recipe.  See if you can find a couple that might intrigue you.

Fried Potatoes, Onions and Zucchini
