Ham Bone Bean Soup

Photo by Home & Plate I love Honey Baked ham.  Love it, love it, love it! But have you heard the definition of eternity? Two people and a ham!  Thank goodness I have a panini press for grilled ham and Swiss sandwiches. Thank goodness…

Four Cheese Spinach Manicotti

PollyMarch 20, 2012July 24, 2025

I must admit, I make a pretty mean manicotti. I’d forgotten how good it was until I made some on the spur-of-the-moment this week. My manicotti is probably not very authentic, seeing as I have no genuine Italian reference point…

Salmon-Spinach Breakfast Roll-up

PollyMarch 18, 2012August 28, 2025

My friend Karin made this for our Cookbook Club’s Snow Holiday.  I ate it the morning she made it, and had it again for the following three mornings…loved it! She learned to make this from her cousin in Germany; she’d…

Quesadilla Pie

I definitely need a better picture. Looking for something new for lunch? I have the perfect thing!  This lunch has to be baked, so it’s a great fall-winter recipe. I found it at Simply Recipes awhile back—picture cred to Simply Recipes,…

Fried Chicken

PollyAugust 2, 2011July 23, 2025

I know this chicken leg has a waffle under it, but this recipe just focuses on the actual fried chicken. Chicken n’ waffles will come later 🙂 Frying chicken wasn’t just another hedonistic pursuit, you know. I had a good reason—a…

Beef Skewers

PollyJuly 23, 2011September 16, 2025

Meat on a stick! Is there anything better? When I was pregnant with my first child, my cravings were iced tea, tomato soup, and “tasty chunks of beef”! Twenty-six year later, I still crave tasty chunks of beef! This is a very…

I am sooooo bad. I KNOW I shouldn’t cook like this. I know it, I know it, I know it! But I did. And my little experiment turned out too wonderfully well 🙂 Who knew homemade corn dogs were so easy to make?! I…

I had no idea it was so easy to fry cheese! I also had no idea fried cheese was so delicious. Dang it. There’s no looking back now, unfortunately. Fried Mozzarella sticks are here to stay and they are my 2011…

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!
