Happy Mothers Day to all the mothers, but especially the grand mother of our house, as we celebrate with her retro “Butterscotch Bliss” recipe- I mean there’s Cool Whip and instant pudding in it! This recipe is right out of her recipe box (and the 1950s) that we cherish and are so lucky to have. The recipe box is a dying breed, but see if there’s one in your family and cook something from it for or in memory of your mom to celebrate the day and feel all the good memories that come back as you cook, eat and share your mom’s food! Detailed recipe, the story of our family’s recipe box and much more coming soon to dadsdinnerdiary.com.

My Pop’s Tofu, The Dad’s vegan take on the spicy good and popular dish from China’s Sichuan province, Mapo Tofu. It’s not as seamless a Dad Joke as DDD’s “Dad Thai”, but, My Pop’s Tofu is, nevertheless, a quick, easy, provocative and accessible bit of tasty plant based cooking and eating. And look at that picture too- very artsy, don’t you think? Detailed recipe, fun Sichuan flavor facts and more coming soon to dadsdinnerdiary.com.

“Beet On Weck”- the classic Beef on Weck from Buffalo, NY reworked for my plant eating family and friends. Detailed recipe, how to make a quick version of a kummelweck roll and much more @ dadsdinnerdiary.com.

Happy Pi Day! Like any good Dad would do today- I give you a recipe for “3 Bite Apple Hand Pies” to celebrate! Just the right amount of pie, in a convenient package, to eat at the table or on the run- eat 1 or 3.14 of them! Detailed recipe, that includes a recipe for home made pie crust, and much more @ dadsdinnerdiary.com.

This “Maine Wild Child & Blueberry Bread” is a liberal re-creation of the blueberry bread our family would devour at the Maine country kitchen we affectionately called “The Wink”. The detailed recipe, the story of one of the most notorious childhood meltdowns on the East Coast, and much more coming soon to dadsdinnerdiary.com.

“My Kids’ Favorite Soup- Potato Leek!”- the soup with a colorful history in our house, which became famous, or perhaps infamous, long before it captivated audiences in Disney’s “Ratatouille”. Detailed recipe, the story of the Big Soup Con and much more @ dadsdinnerdiary.com.
