Like so many other dishes, the variations for deviled eggs are endless. I love experimenting with food, trying new recipes, and combinations. On the other hand, my mom is more on the traditionalist. She says I like to experiment too much, and I have to agree. The kitchen is my lab, and I can't wait to test a few of the following deviled egg recipes.

I've never liked tuna casserole. Coming up, the only way my mom made tuna was, tuna salad. When I met my husband, one of his favorite dishes his mom made was tuna casserole. In almost 22 years of marriage, I've never made tuna casserole, because I didn't like it. The truth is... I never tried it.

I love greens, collards, turnips, and mustard's are my favorite. In the south, we boil our greens, with pork, smoked turkey, or other meat for added flavor, for hours. A good southern cook DOES NOT saute greens!

Tis the season of holidays, and a lot of cooking! I've found one item I use most when cooking this time of year, is chicken broth. It seems like I never have enough.

Food Network star, Aaron McCargo, Jr. of "Big Daddy's House," gave us a demonstration of his bananas foster served along with blueberry and apple compote, instead of syrup. It was delicious.

I pride myself on cooking a wholesome dinner for my family, most of the week. Every now and then, it's not possible to get dinner on the table in a timely manner. This week, dinner is going to be all about the slow cooker.

For years, I've seen plantains in our grocery store. I've even stopped, picked them up, smelled, and felt them. Like a do with most things I'm unfamiliar with, I put them back, and went on my way. Finally, I stepped out of my comfort zone, and tried the banana look alike.

When taco's are what's-for-dinner at my house, I'm the wo-man. It's safe to say my family enjoys taco night.

No matter what soup recipe I try my favorite is still chicken noodle soup. There is something oh-so-comforting about a hearty bowl of chicken, noodles and vegetables. I don't know if it has any magical powers, but this recipe does the trick for me.

If I had a dime for every time I heard, "What's for dinner?" Oprah would be the second richest woman in the world. I used to dread that question. Not because my family asked every day, (and they did), but because I didn't have a clue! Dinner had become so mundane, boring, and uneventful untill cooking was more like an awful chore. Dinners were on automatic repeat, Monday, through Sunday, and I'd start all over again.
