A Basic Mornay for Macaroni and Cheese

A Basic Mornay for Macaroni and Cheese Mornay sauce = becahamel sauce with cheese, usually swiss or Gruyere. Mornay sauce = perfect sauce for vegetables or noodles. Morney sauce = the sauce that gives mac ‘n cheese life. We grilled steaks and I didn’t want an ordinary French fry or baked potato. I know, so unlike me. Instead I made a very unhealthy and quite tasty macaroni and cheese composed of elbow noodles, spinach, bacon, and...

This Is Not McDonald’s Special Sauce

This Is Not McDonald’s Special Sauce Labor Day is coming up and that means you’re most likely going to grill. You gotta get at least one more summer meal in…right? Since rediscovering our grill (We moved and now have the space!), we’ve had about every type of grilled meat available…including burgers, of course. To spice up the ordinary burger, I whipped up my own version of McDonald’s Special Sauce. Not sure what...

Anyway, about that cucumber sauce. Sauce recipes don’t come much...

Horseradish Stinks.

Horseradish Stinks. But horseradish tastes good once you get past the burning in your nostrils. Last week I wrote about the best French dip and au jus of my life, and you may remember me mentioning the horseradish. Is it only me or is a meal not complete without some kind of topping, spread, sauce, or dip? Horseradish is a great condiment to have on hand during the summer. It goes great with all those barbecues you’ll...

Slow Cooker French Dip and Au Jus

Slow Cooker French Dip and Au Jus A few days ago I made the best French dip of my life. Actually, I think it’s the only French dip I’ve ever made. Either way, I’m certain that this recipe will make its way into the rotation of meals here at the Lancaster house. After smelling the delicious meat scents all day and enjoying a great meal, I was psyched to see so many leftovers. Leftovers are my friend. I decided to let the...
