Schmierkaese (Cheese Spread)
On a recent trip to Austria, this simple cheese ‘spread’ was much enjoyed, spread on good black bread, between hearty swigs of beer, while waiting for our mains to arrive.
Cheesy Smoked Salmon Appetizers
A simple appetizer that always looks impressive. Can be made up to 1 day in advance. Keep refrigerated. This uses one large packet of the smoked sliced salmon that you find in the deli. The appetizers should look similar to small sushi rolls
Panera’s Cream Cheese Potato Soup
This is my favorite recipe for potato soup. It’s a copycat of the one they use to serve at the St. Louis Bread Company (Panera). The recipe originally called for shredding your potatoes, but I never could get them to cook that way. I know they should cook faster, but I never could get it to work.
Crock-Pot Chicken With Black Beans & Cream Cheese
I love this Crock-Pot chicken recipe for two reasons: one, my family loves it and two, it is so easy to make! I got this recipe from my sister. She has two children of her own, and they love it too! It’s also the best leftovers in the world — if there are any!
