Roasted Fingerling Potatoes with Loaded Dip

May 26, 2019 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

The British have a brilliant tradition of savory pies that hasn’t quite translated to the American menu.

Cooking with beer is an October tradition.  While it is just cool enough to have one last outdoor event, it is fun to put together an Oktoberfest celebration. The weather is beautiful and the food is comforting, perfect for a gathering of friends.  Warm sweaters and warm colors, leaves turning, a nip in the air and of course, plenty of beer. This recipe was born because it … [Read more...] about Bubbling Beer and Bacon Cheese Dip

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.
