Quick and Easy Breadsticks

February 14, 2008 by Mel and Boys Kitchen + 12 Comments

My boys LOVE these easy breadsticks and they really are fantastic.

I got this recipe from my friend Starlie...she is a gem!

Back and White Bean Dip

This Black and White Bean Dip is a very easy and tasty dip for tortilla chips.

Tribute to my sweet Mom

I developed my love of cooking at an early age “helping” my Mom bake cookies, make dinner, and knead bread. She had quite the well of patience! She is the one that taught me about measurements, leavening agents, egg-washes, the basic white sauce, and numerous other mysteries of the kitchen!  I cherish the memories I have of learning to cook at her side. Thank you Mom! You instilled in me a respect for work as well as a joy in creating delicious things. I love you! xoxo
