Crispiest Home Fries Recipe

April 12, 2016 by overtimecook 14 Comments

Whether you're looking for a delicious breakfast or a quick-and-easy side dish, this Crispiest Home Fries Recipe is going to hit the spot! Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! This recipe is long overdue. And by that, I mean at least a year. It definitely started on Pesach, I'm just not sure if it was last year or the year before. Anyway, let me explain. In our kitchen, every pesach, we always try to keep on hand two things that are at the base of many pesach recipes: fried onions and boiled potatoes. (Side note: this is a great tip. Keep both of those around at all times to make your cooking easier.) … [Read more...]

Homemade Beef Chili is the ultimate comfort food - with so many great serving options! Do you receive the Overtime Cook newsletter? Full of recipes, kitchen tips and deals and more! Click here to signup. To be perfectly honest with you guys, I had no intentions of posting this recipe. For this year's family chanukah party, I decided to make a burger bar. I saw the idea in a facebook group, and decided to run with it: burgers, buns, salads, and loads and loads of topping options. Aside from the usual toppings (lettuce, tomato, pickles) I made some "gourmet" toppings too. Sauteed onions. Roasted Mushrooms. Fried Eggs. BBQ Shredded Beef. And of course, chili. Really good chili, I might … [Read more...]

Mini Pumpkin Pie Trifles

November 24, 2015 by overtimecook 2 Comments

Mini Pumpkin Pie Trifles are a decadent and creamy twist on a classic treat. Do you receive the Overtime Cook newsletter? Full of recipes, kitchen tips and deals and more! Click here to signup. Here's a little secret. I've never had pumpkin pie. Crazy, right? Well. What can I tell you? Growing up, pies were usually fruit based. We'd have apple pie, cherry pie, and others. Occasionally, we'd have pecan pie. But somehow, I never had a slice of pumpkin pie. And because, as an adult, I enjoy creating twists on traditional favorites, I didn't bother with pumpkin pie. Instead, I made Pumpkin Pie Trifle. Are you ready for the next shocker? Here goes: I don't love heavily flavored … [Read more...]

Grilled Corn and Pastrami Salad

August 18, 2014 by overtimecook 21 Comments

Grilled Corn and Pastrami Salad has an amazing smoky flavor, bringing together all of the best things about summer food! I'm feeling deja vu here. I know, this recipe is brand new, but I really dreamed it up a while ago. In fact, this salad was the original inspiration for this grilled chicken and corn salad. The recipes both started to run together in my head, what with the whole grilled corn (yum!) thing going on, and it's kinda confusing. Especially because my head is pretty confusing as it is, with multiple cookie recipes being formulated at any given point too. But despite the similarities between the recipes, I decided to just go for it and share this one. Mostly because...um, … [Read more...]
