Maple Garlic Salmon was inspired by a [...] This is an incredible soup on a cold and rainy day. Because it’s done in the crock pot, effort is minimal. I base mine on the Recipe at All Recipes.com Because I’m so sensitive to MSG, I make my mushroom broth the night before in the crock pot. I chop up an onion, about [...] A family favorite, I just realized I hadn’t posted it! Now, I’m not even remotely Italian, but pretty much everyone loves bruschetta. What’s not to love about tomatoes, garlic and basil???
