A turkey is nothing but a big bird. Treat it like a chicken, and you'll have no problem making it. Just follow the instructions on the label.

This was suppose to be an appetizer, but turned out to be part of the main dish!

I took this photo with the shredded Mozzarella cheese on top to remember that I put it in the salad, but as always, a salad can be a meal by itself.

I'm not a Southern Bell, I grew up on West Indian food, but I just never learned to cook the way my mom did. I usually season my collards with meats, sometimes I leave it in, and other times I take it out.

I will turn a salad into a meal! Hard boiled eggs, grapes, apples, cheeses, black olives, and the list goes on!

This is the family favorite I get the most phone calls on, "Mommy, how do you make your macaroni and cheese?"

My niece told me about "Oven Ready Lasagna Noodles, I was hesitant.....What was I thinking? Without sacrificing quality and taste, I've given up some time!

Cooked to perfection - not over-done, if you really want to enjoy plump juicy shrimp.

I was introduced to Swai fish about 8 years ago. The only fish in my freezer is Swai and Tilapia. Why? Because it is absolutely delicious and it does'nt matter how you make it!

Chicken tenders, this means you cook it low and slow, and make sure it's golden brown.

I created my own seafood soup loaded with shrimp, seafood medley, scallops, squid, crab meat, broccoli ......

Cabbage is our family's favorite vegetable to have at gatherings, need I say more?

Battered, double dipped and delicious!

I make so many different flavored rice, that no one ever taste the same. This rice is seasoned with green olives.

I used the crab meat in the can to make these, and seasoned it with eggs, bread crumbs, shrimp, garlic, peppers, and other seasonings.

This chicken was seasoned over night and oven baked. It was based every 15 minutes to keep it from drying out.

Although I use the same seasoning, my macaroni and cheese can taste slightly different based on the cheeses used.

I like to add fresh seafood to dishes like seafood soup, or seafood salad..

This is only requested by my Hubby when he wants me to make Chili. He loves Chili and Rice. It may have something to do with the fact that it was the first dish I every cooked for him, 37 years ago!

Pizza is a favorite of my teenagers in our home. It is the go to quickie dinner when we are too busy to cook a meal. I made this pizza using the King Arthur Flour, but the Boboli pizza dough, we buy regularly.

In my family, we love seafood, so crab legs is also apart of our favorite meals.

For a quickie appetizer, I make Pigs in the Blanket, and "Angel" (not deviled) Eggs! I changed the name about 25 years ago, so my family has been spreading it around.

I could give my turkey broth a darker consistency, but I like to separate the two when I'm making them both. This way they don't taste the same.

It's during the holidays that I go over, above, and beyond in the kitchen. This is what my homemade chicken broth looks like.
