Read MoreBaked Macaroni with Sausage and Spinach
With Memorial Day fast approaching here in the U.S., thoughts turn to a long weekend, outdoor gatherings around the grill, the unofficial start of summer and of course, remembering all those who died while serving to defend our nation. When I think about the countless number of lives that have been lost, I am saddened. I wonder if in my lifetime or if in any, there will ever be a time when there is...

Read MoreGardening, Mother’s Day and Prosciutto & Spinach-Stuffed Shells with Garlic Tomato Sauce
I have to check the calendar again. It is May, right? Reason I ask is that last night, I had to cover up all the herbs and veggies I planted in my container garden since we were facing a night of frost. And to think that this year, I waited a whole month before planting anything. I was a little excited last year and started planting in April since we had an extremely mild winter. I ended up having...

Read MoreThe Perfect Breakfast for Mother’s Day: Stuffed Brioche French Toast
With Mother’s Day this weekend, I thought it would be the perfect time to share this amazingly delicious breakfast treat with all of you. It goes beyond the traditional french toast and is elevated with the use of sweet brioche bread and a heavenly stuffing of two types of cheeses and golden raisins. So for all you Dads out there, round up the kids and serve this to the “Mom” in...

Read MoreMy Quest has Ended, Thanks to Delicious Sweet Italian Sausage with Sun Dried Tomatoes
I have been on a quest. An elusive one that has driven me to the point of almost cheating. But fortunately, I haven’t succumbed to it yet and today’s posting is the reason why. Steam What, you ask? Danny’s on a quest for steam? Of all things…steam? Let me explain. There’s something beautiful about it – the swirls and white wisps dancing over the food ascending...

Read MorePolpette di Melanzane: Eggplant “Meatballs”
I’m thrilled to share another wonderful guest posting with all of you today. Evelyn Pearce reached out to me and came up with this amazing, authentic Italian recipe. She not only came up with one sauce, but two so you would have options. I was so excited after reading the recipe that I decided to whip this up myself (with the Sugo di Pomodoro sauce) and photograph the finished product....

I am super excited to share this wonderful guest posting with all of you today!

Read MoreWhat was I Thinking?
When I made the bold decision to venture off on my own and self-host my blog last November, I also purposely omitted a few of my very early posts from Danny’s Kitchen. I was looking at my photos shot with my iPhone and asked myself “what was I thinking?” The photos were awful! There was nothing wrong with the recipes, but the photos were just sad — poorly lit, bad...

Read MoreCreamy Sausage, Mushrooms and Peppers with Linguine
It’s coming close to that that point when I get the itch to start heading outdoors and getting the backyard ready for outdoor events. The weather finally hit the upper 60s today and so I’m hoping that I can finally empty out the snow blower and get the patio furniture set up — well, maybe next weekend. It is only April so I don’t want to jump the gun — you never know...
