Bloomin’ Onion Tear and Share Loaf

PollyJanuary 26, 2024July 17, 2025

You know how you read a recipe and you just KNOW it’s going to be good?  This was one of those recipes—a Sourdough bread round, cheese, butter, green onions and a sprinkling of poppy seeds, baked.  What’s not to like?…

Did the name of the recipe entice you click on this?! Well then, that makes us friends forever! When my friends from Southern France were staying with us, they offered to make a side dish for dinner.  They didn’t use a recipe. They…

I love muffins and I love all things coconut! I can’t think of anything better on a cool Sunday morning than a warm coconut muffin, a latte, some social media, something to read, jammies, and fluffy slippers. This recipe makes…

Chicken Pot Pie

PollyOctober 4, 2023March 7, 2026

This is a pretty simple Chicken Pot Pie.  Absolute comfort food!  No spices other than salt and pepper, so the true taste of sauteed chicken and fresh veggies shine whilst snuggled up in a smooth gravy and encased in pastry.  Yummmm!…

Bread baking is my Everest—meaning I haven’t conquered it yet! I’m not even at base camp so the bread recipes that appeal to me are easy and pretty much foolproof 🙂  Here’s one of my favorites! The recipe is so…

This recipe is rustic, quick, and done in 20 minutes!  But once made, the bars have to sit in the refrigerator to harden up a bit 🙂 The finished product also freezes well, so it’s okay to make ahead or…

This recipe is from the back of the bag of Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips.  The cookie is fabulous!  It’s like a peanut butter cup in cookie form 🙂 My daughter made these cookies for a Back of the Box themed Cookbook…

Sometimes, I don’t want to cook in the morning.  Sometimes I don’t even want to make toast.  I just want a lovely latte—I am always willing to make a latte—and something on the side, while I casually drink my coffee,…

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!
