One Pot Italian Sausage Tortellini Bake

October 5, 2025 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I love a good one pot pasta. All the delicious flavors of a homey Italian meal without a slew of dirty dishes, steamy boiling water, colanders etc. And man does this one fit the bill. Hearty Italian sausage in a tomato sauce tinged with red wine and herbs with tender cheese tortellini nestled under a blanket of melty cheese. It’s a perfect autumn meal for the family or friends, … [Read more...] about One Pot Italian Sausage Tortellini Bake

New Fashioned Dilly Bread

People of a certain age will have fond memories of Casserole Dilly bread, a round loaf of bread redolent with dill and tender with cottage cheese.

Here’s a real twist for a potato salad, packed with flavor and zing. The traditional filling ingredients for an Indian samosa pastry are tossed in a creamy, curried dressing. Flavorful potatoes, crisp peas, and shaved carrot add texture and all these delicious spices really set this apart from traditional potato salad. It’s amazing with grilled meats or a nice roasted pork … [Read more...] about Samosa Potato Salad

Barbecue Chicken Platter Salad

September 7, 2025 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

A platter salad meal is just the thing for these in between times. Not the full heat of summer, but not the cool kiss of fall either. The bulk of the summer fresh produce is fading but the winter squashes and apples aren’t quite here. Not quite time for soups and stews. And it tends to be the best time of year for eating outside, as the days get a little bit fresher. A big, … [Read more...] about Barbecue Chicken Platter Salad

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.
