Quick Dinner Rolls

Here is a recipe that will put dinner rolls on your table in about 30-40 minutes (including baking time). These rolls were so soft and puffy – perfect to accompany nearly any dish. I baked 9 of them in a square, glass casserole dish. The remaining 3 I put in a muffin […]

Green Beans and Peppers

This is a lovely side dish. You could use a quart of canned beans to cut down on the cooking time. The taste will be a bit mellowed because the beans won’t be cooking in the flavorings but it still works out to be tasty!

Ingredients:

1lb green beans, trimmed and cut 1c onion, sliced […]

Roast Zucchini

This is a very simple dish that can have so many variations. Preheat your oven to 450F, slice zucchini and toss in a bowl with enough olive oil to coat. Pour into a greased casserole dish or roasting pan, sprinkle with salt and pepper, cover and roast about 15-20 minutes. Play around with adding additional […]

Ranch Chicken Patties

These started off as a kebab type dish – ground chicken and other ingredients mixed together and formed into a ball, skewered and grilled. But mid-dish I realized I didn’t have one ingredient that was a main player and by the time I was finished searching for it the kids were starving (at least they […]

Bourbon Chicken

This recipe was originally a crockpot recipe but I wanted to try it and forgot to put it in the crockpot this morning. So as with most crockpot recipes, you can tweek it and cook it on the stovetop or in the oven. It was delicious. It will be made again. My husband said that […]

Limited Time & Scratch Cooking

The past few months have been crazier than I think I have ever known. It wasn’t my intention to post recipes so infrequently on Scratch Cooking with the Concord Country Cook, but with this being our first season on our new farm, trying to balance everything has been quite the experience. It’s silly, because I […]

Mulberry Pie (and other things to do with mulberries)

It’s Mulberry season here! It’s exciting because I recently found out we actually have mulberry trees (two weeks ago I took a walk around the property with a friend when we spotted a heavily loaded mulberry tree. Upon further exploration I found about 9 in various forms of development- and I still have exploring to […]
