Corn Chowder
I don't know what kind of winter weather you're experiencing in your neck of the woods, but ours has been brutally cold for nearly a month. It's the kind of cold that reminds me of my Air Force days in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. OK, it's not really that bad, but it is the kind of cold that calls for a nice hot bowl of hearty soup. Corn chowder is a beautiful and glorious thing. It's rich, thick, creamy, and of course corny, with just a hint of bacon. What's not to like?

Dormet: Spicy Chicken Noodles
I'm starting a new class of "dormet" (dorm gourmet) recipes that cater to college kids and military dorm rats (of which I was one for several years). These recipes will use common simple ingredients, brain-dead easy preparation, and microwave cooking. The goal is to produce near-restaurant-quality dishes with minimal expense and effort. It may be shocking, but dorm rats are generally poor and lazy. I can't believe that it has taken me this long to start posting recipes like this.

New Year Stew
Ringing in the new year calls for blackeyed peas, greens and pork. Oh, and that means that we must include cornbread on the side. This might just be a new tradition here at Daddio's house. I call it a stew, but it's more like a really thick soup, or I suppose you could even call it a form of chili. No matter what you call it, I call it good and the family concurred. It's one of those simple hearty comfort foods that fills the house with airborne deliciousness even before you eat it.
