Karen’s Killer Fixin’s: Empanadas

Following_RecipeSMALLER   It’s time for Karen’s Killer Fixin’s! Over the years, I’ve filled two 4-inch, 3-ring binders with my own creations as well as recipes my family and friends were willing to share with me. I simply love to cook and want to share that love with my readers. So every Friday, I share one recipe I think you and your family might enjoy. It might be a main course recipe. A cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes my eye and fancy…which today is EMPANADAS!

Empanadas are a little bit of work for a lot of fun and flavor. But so worth it! Who doesn’t like little meat or fruit pies? I think they can be just as good eaten cold for lunch, depending on the ingredients you use. I personally don’t like cold beans but a meat, onion and red pepper empanada is a nice alternative to a sandwich.

I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!

Karen’s Killer Fixin’s: Corn Casserole

A cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes my eye and fancy…which today is CORN CASSEROLE!

I grew up with this staple at barbecues and BASD (bring a side dish) social events. It’s easy to fix and satisfying. This is one of the few ways I actually enjoy corn bread because it’s moist. Instead of bringing the standard green beans or baked beans to your next party, try this corn casserole instead.

I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!
