Pork Roast with Pineapple Pepper Jelly

March 20, 2022 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

Spring is about to sprung. We’ve had beautiful warm and balmy days, an unexpected early March snow and some grim, chilly days.

We are, however, slightly before the glut of Spring and summer … [Read more...] about Pork Roast with Pineapple Pepper Jelly

I love a good snack board and I love a good theme, so creating a St. Patrick’s Day themed board was a perfect fit. I came up with this while standing in the grocery store trying to find something to nibble on for a book club outdoor gathering.

Sardou Dip (Spinach and Artichoke Dip with Hollandiase)

The inspiration for this dip is a menu. I don’t remember where or when, but some menu I saw online – either Instagram or researching restaurants or something a friend sent me - had a Sardou dip. I didn’t eat at the restaurant, but the dip idea really appealed to me, so I started from scratch. Eggs Sardou is a New Orleans brunch classic in the benedict vein, an artichoke bottom … [Read more...] about Sardou Dip (Spinach and Artichoke Dip with Hollandiase)

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
