QUICK AND EASY HOMEMADE CORNBREAD

February 18, 2021 by Lovoni | Leave a Comment

Forget the packaged stuff that’s about as dry as the box it came in, instead make your own cornbread. Quick and Easy Homemade Cornbread, as the name would suggest, is very simple to make and the results surpass any store-bought stuff. This is best eaten warm with a smear of butter and a drizzle of honey; if you’re into the honey drizzle on your cornbread.

Don’t just serve cornbread with chili, it’s great with soups, stews and roasts too. Pre made food has its place and I get that it’s convenient but the time it takes to throw a packet cornbread together versus the time it takes to make Quick and Easy Homemade Cornbread are so comparable, why would you even bother with the boxed stuff? Just saying. Love and social-distancing hugs, Lovoni xo

Some foods’ appearance beguiles the taste & text Some foods’ appearance beguiles the taste & texture. This is one such dish. Super Crunchy Herb, Lemon & Parmesan Chicken served with a lemony, garlic, caper butter. Breaded chicken & fish are favorites of mine. Served simply with some sea salt & lemon wedges or with this lemony butter sauce. Serve with creamy mashed potato & steamed green beans & call me; I’ll be there! I’ll even bring wine xo

Happy March 1st. The start to a new month needs ca Happy March 1st. The start to a new month needs cake - One Bowl Banana Cake with Caramel Drizzle. There’s something warm & comforting about this cake, especially today. Spring briefly revealed herself to us this past weekend & then she slinked back into the abyss.  Soon. 
Meanwhile I’m still wanting warm & comforting foods making use of the seasonal foods. What are you excited to make as the seasons transition?

Salmon, Leek & Ricotta Tarts because yesterday & t Salmon, Leek & Ricotta Tarts because yesterday & today we got a little taste of spring & I think these tarts are just that - a little taste of springtime. Mine you, we still have a foot of snow in our backyard but this time last week it was more than double that so I’ll take this. Only 20+ days until spring. Hang in there!

Oxtail in Red Wine: when I first added this to my Oxtail in Red Wine: when I first added this to my website & shared it on Pinterest, I almost blew up my Pinterest account. It was so popular. I was shocked. Really I made it for my husband a couple of times and the recipe was so nice I had to share. I thought here the words “ox tail” might turn people away. I was wrong, quite the opposite. Nowadays it’s beef tail not ox because oxen numbers, as far as I’m aware, have been on the decline and is the reason for beef tails being used but they’re still referred to as ox tail.
