 New Potatoes and Peas in Cheddar Sauce.......
......mmmm, mmmmm,  GOOD

A great side dish for a cold winter meal.  I mean it's in a cream sauce for heaven's sake.  Make this in the fall!  With a roast.  And pumpkin pie.

I recieved this cookbook for Christmas.  Add another one to the list  (I'll never get it down if I keep this up)

It was a great appetizer...I'd make it again.  In fact, maybe this weekend.

Raspberry Salsa Black Bean Dip

I think it must be 218 and counting down.....
(what can I say?  I like to buy cookbooks.)
But today was the first cookbook recipe in "Cook from the Book".  A Challenge I joined last week.
We will cook from our cookbooks and post about them as we count them down.
Just 2x a month.

I made "Raspberry Salsa Black Bean Dip".  It was a hit at the party.

But this Dip is really good.   You can check out my original post by clicking the link below.
