Anyone who likes to cook will tell you that part of the fun of cooking is sharing good recipes. At TerisKitchen.com, you will find hundreds of tried-and-true recipes from my family and personal collection, plus several hundred shared recipes submitted by contributors. In addition to the recipes, there are menus for every day and special occasions, cooking tips, resources and much more. On this page, I will post featured menus and collections, as well as new content and revisions to the site as they occur. To see more and to find specific recipes or information, you can browse the Recipes, Features and Resources Index or use the search boxes and lists throughout the site. I hope you will enjoy what I have to offer.
These are some of the main dish recipes I love to make in the summer for everyday fare or casual entertaining. Most are light, easy to prepare and budget-friendly. Many of the meats and some of the vegetables are grilled because I enjoy cooking outdoors as much as possible during the summer, although all of the recipes can be made indoors. Additionally, I include seasonal foods such as seafood, summer vegetables, fruits and berries, which are especially tasty and usually less expensive during the local harvest. I hope that you will try some of the recipes and enjoy!
Anyone who maintains a garden knows that, in a successful growing season, there are certain vegetables that produce larger yields than a single household can possibly consume. Many of us look forward to the surplus so that we can preserve it to enjoy throughout the year. Posted on my site are some of my favorite recipes for preserving, as well as those using preserved foods, such as canned, frozen or dehydrated vegetables, herbs, pickles and condiments. In addition, I share tips from my own experiences, as well as suggestions for additional sources that provide extensive information on safety procedures.
