Baked Chicken Taquitos

PollySeptember 25, 2010August 19, 2025

Yes! You can bake taquitos! Who knew? My kids loved taquitos when they were growing up. They were always happy when there was a box of them in the freezer. I wish I knew then what I know now. I could have made batches of…

Veganized! Hoisin Chick’n Lettuce Wraps

JocelynSeptember 23, 2010August 3, 2025

These taste a lot like the lettuce wraps at The Yard House and they are super easy and fast to make. After tasting this, I felt it needed a little heat to contrast with the cool, crispness of the lettuce…

Hoisin Chicken in Lettuce Cups

PollySeptember 20, 2010August 2, 2025

Mmmmm… Hoisin chicken, wrapped in a crispy, iceberg lettuce leaf. I don’t remember where I found the original recipe, it was a few years ago. My daughter and I have tinkered with it a bit over the years and now we think…

Crockpot Pizza Sauce, Bread Machine Pizza Dough, and a Good Cheese Blend

PollySeptember 10, 2010August 3, 2025

I’ve finally found something that the crockpot excels in—excels in! This is not just a recipe that can be cooked in the crockpot, it’s a recipe that should be cooked in a crockpot! Yes, a recipe that tastes best cooked in…

Grilled Orange Glazed Shrimp

PollyJuly 22, 2010August 28, 2025

Perfect! Three ingredients, a bit of salt and pepper, then quickly grilled on a skewer! It’s a pretty simple dish, and pretty simple in taste, too. Sometimes, that’s all one wants! It’s fancy enough to serve to guests, especially to…

Chilled Green Beans for Snacking

PollyJuly 8, 2010August 24, 2025

Move over Doritos! Get out of here Bagel Bites! Got you beat, baby carrots! I find these to be quite an addictive finger food. They are a perfect summer appetizer, seasonal, chilled, and good for you. What’s wrong with a…

Crockpot Bean Dip for a Crowd

Super Bowl Sunday is just over the horizon, and for years, I couldn’t care less 🙂 Yet somehow or another, I managed to raise a football crazy girl who actually anticipates and watches football games, playoffs and bowls! So, through…

Bacon Asparagus Rolls

PollyFebruary 2, 2010August 18, 2025

I found this recipe on the Internet this morning, and I ran out to buy some asparagus to try it! Then I hemmed and hawed about posting the link, the recipe, and my pictures. I wasn’t sure the recipe was…

About Me

polly of the kitchen

It's all about the recipe—really, it is! I have amassed quite a collection of recipes from my favorite cookbooks, food magazines, friends, the Internet, and more recently my adult daughters. I test every recipe I post. Some I've been cooking for years, decades even, and a few I have made only a few times. I don't post mediocre recipes. I don't post good recipes. I post GREAT recipes! When I find a recipe I LOVE, I can't wait to share it. I started In the Kitchen with Polly on January 01, 2010, a joint venture between myself and my non-cooking but most excellent webmaster, proofreader, technical goddess and all-around bestie, ratty (not a joke—ratty is her chosen nickname—her Mama didn’t do that to her, she did it to herself!). Last year we hit a snag—the website went up in monstrous flames. It took a long time to sort out what happened and even longer to recreate what was lost. Hundreds of pictures gone, and every recipe we posted (300+) over the last 14 years had to be reformatted, many pictures retaken. It's done now though, and we are back! I like this brighter version :) Scroll through! Find something you like, and let's get cooking! There’s a search button and there are also tags to click on if you want to find a recipe for a specific food. If you need it, the print button is on the preview page and at the end of each post.

Enjoy!
