If for some reason or another I only had one breakfast left on this planet to eat, I would have huevos rancheros. Dinner or lunch, I might need to go with fried chicken, but breakfast…most definitely huevos rancheros. I have a rule when I travel: If I see Huevos Rancheros on the menu, I must […]

My Favorite Healthy Breakfast
OK, let’s get real. This time of year it’s about focusing on health, not indulgence. And as much as some people out there would like to cultivate the fantasy that every morning involves either some sort of breakfast casserole or stack o’ pancakes, the truth is we girls on the go need a reliable breakfast […]
Creamed Chipped Dried Beef on Toast—A Real PA breakfast!
Round these parts, go into any good diner worth its PA Dutch salt and you will see creamed chipped dried beef on toast on the menu. It may sound strange, but it really isn’t. In fact, I’ve decided that it’s the kissing cousin of biscuits and sausage gravy down South. Not sure of the relations […]

Unthinkable, right? So, the kids asked for pancakes, and I said yes before I realized I was out of my usual organic mix. And […]
Codfish Cakes (It Must be December)
When I was a kid, codfish cakes were one of my favorite winter breakfasts. I think my mom got the fish from a can. She would slice them into 1-inch circles and fry them up, and I’d gobble them down with ketchup…Heinz 57, of course. You can eat them for dinner, but for some reason […]
