Waterzooi (Vaterzoy)

I learned this while stationed in the Flemish part of Belgium, in a village called Sint-Hubrechtslille. So tasty good, my daughter still asks me to make it for her 10 years later!

Zucchini Boats

These zucchini boats, with fork-tender zucchini halves piled to the brim with a delicious meaty tomato filling, are a perfect carb-free dinner. Italian seasoning ties the flavors together, and the golden-brown cheese crust adds a nice tang.

Tomato and mozzarella salad served with fresh basil and drizzled with olive oil... There's nothing better! A perfect salad alternative, especially in summer when you can get tomatoes and basil from the garden.

River Road Spinach Madeline

First published in 1959 in River Road Recipes, the Junior League of Baton Rouge's community cookbook, spinach Madeline remains a favorite side dish in Southern Louisiana. Thick and creamy with a hint of jalapeño heat, it's most at home on holidays next to turkey, cornbread dressing, and green bean casserole.
