Cheese Drop Biscuits
Soft, cheesy pillows of deliciousness packed with extra protein from the Greek yogurt. These are a great accompaniment to any soup.

Biscuits
Ingredients
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 1 Tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 5 Tbsp unsalted butter Cut into small pieces
  • 1 Cup Greek Yogurt Plain
  • 2/3 Cup milk
  • 1 Cup Cheddar Cheese Grated

Ingredients
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 1 Tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 5 Tbsp unsalted butter Cut into small pieces
  • 1 Cup Greek Yogurt Plain
  • 2/3 Cup milk
  • 1 Cup Cheddar Cheese Grated
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  2. In a large bowl, combine Flour, Baking Powder and Salt.
  3. Add Butter and used a pastry cutter to combine with the dry mixture. You can use your fingers if you don't have a pastry cutter. The mixture should be crumbly with the butter distributed throughout. Add Cheese and mix until distributed evenly.
  4. Combine Greek Yogurt and Milk. I usually do this in a glass measuring cup with a spout so it is easy to pour.
  5. Add Milk mixture to Flour mixture and stir just until combined. It will be sticky.
  6. Use a ice cream scoop (1-1/2 Tbps to 1/4 cup depending on how big you like your biscuits) to make mounds on greased or parchment lined sheet pan.
  7. Bake for 14-15 minutes. We like ours lightly baked so I keep an eye on them around 12 minutes.
  8. Serve warm or room temperature.

Creamy Mashed Potatoes
Nothing says comfort food like warm, creamy mashed potatoes. My mom used to always whip them with a hand mixer and that is still my preferred way to eat them.

Ingredients
  • 3 pounds russet potatoes
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup milk I use whole
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt
Instructions
  1. Prepare potatoes by cleaning and peeling them. Cut into 1-1/2" chunks. Place potato chunks into 5 qt pot filled with cold water. Give enough space at the top of the pot to allow for boiling without overflow.
  2. Bring to a boil over high heat. When the water begins to boil, add 3 Tbsp of kosher salt and reduce heat to medium high. Take care to not allow the water to overflow. Boil 10-12 minutes based on the size of your potatoes, stirring occasionally. Drain and place potatoes in a bowl.
  3. Add butter, milk and salt. Beat on low speed with a hand mixer until all ingredients are combined. Turn mixer to high for 30 seconds or until potatoes reach the consistency that you prefer. Serve warm.
Recipe Notes

Starting the potatoes in cold water insures that the potatoes cook evenly.

Steamed Cabbage
This recipe I developed about 10 years ago. We ate it on a pretty regular basis served with "sizzled" kielbasa and mashed potatoes. When my daughter was born and was nursing, I stopped making it because it would hurt her little tummy and totally forgot about it. I am excited to bring it out of the vault and add it to meal rotation again. It tastes amazing with sour cream or plain Greek yogurt and mashed potatoes.

Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 onions large
  • 1 head of cabbage medium-large
  • 1-1/2 tsp kosher salt divided
  • 1/4 cup water

Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 onions large
  • 1 head of cabbage medium-large
  • 1-1/2 tsp kosher salt divided
  • 1/4 cup water
Instructions
  1. Heat olive oil in a large dutch oven over medium heat. Cut onions into large dices. Saute onions in olive oil with 1/2 tsp salt until softened.
  2. Meanwhile, prepare the cabbage. Remove outer leaves from the head of cabbage. Cut into quarters and then cut at an angle to remove the core.
  3. Cut cabbage into 1" slices and add to the dutch oven with the onions. Stir to combine and break up the cabbage. Add 1 tsp salt and 1/4 cup of water. Cover to allow to steam. Cook for 15 minutes. Serve as a side dish.
Recipe Notes

If you add 1/2 cup of water instead of just the 1/4, there will be a little more liquid goodness when you spoon it over mashed potatoes.
