While Scallop and Corn Chowder might sound like a fancy recipe, a lot of the ingredients for this chowder come from an average pantry. Onions, potatoes, chicken broth and corn (canned, frozen or fresh) are staples in most kitchens. What I love about the cooking method for this recipe is that nothing is complicated. You are in and out of the kitchen within the hour. Enjoy with your favorite crusty bread. Scallop and Corn Chowder Makes 4 servings 5 slices bacon 1 1/2 pounds sea…

Here is a tutorial on making homemade baby food that I created back when my son was a baby. I promise it is not difficult and does not take much time. This tutorial is for carrots, but you can use the same method for all fruits and vegetables. HINT: I do not skin anything until after I steam it. The skin will literally fall off the fruit or veggie after steaming. NOTE: for this tutorial, I used organic baby carrots, that were already peeled when…
