Crab and Brie Macaroni and Cheese

PollyJune 24, 2013August 28, 2025

Whooooa Nelly!  Crab and Brie Macaroni and Cheese?  Over-the-top decadence in a comfort food?  YEP! And the decadence makes the comfort food even more comforting—like ‘died and gone to heaven’ comforting!  Yet another winning recipe from the Better Homes and…

Peach Iced Tea

PollyJune 8, 2013August 28, 2025

This tea, as is, is not too sweet, and definitely has a pronounced peach flavor; it’s like Snapple Peach Iced Tea, only better!  Make the big-batch peach base to keep in the freezer and you’ll be able to whip up…

Mini Apple Pies

PollyNovember 27, 2012April 26, 2026

I hear mini pies are all the rage now. Bye-bye cake pops and chocolate with bacon; hellooooooo mini pies!  Here’s a great recipe with which to start.  Having made this recipe a few times, I now know a few things…

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…

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…

Blueberry Chip Cookies

PollyJuly 26, 2011August 23, 2025

Hey world, there’s a new cookie on the plate!  It’s sort of like a chocolate chip cookie—it has all the best elements of a chocolate chip cookie—it crunches like a chocolate chip cookie, and is crisp around the edges and…

Chinese Chicken Salad

PollySeptember 29, 2010August 28, 2025

Chinese Chicken Salad: it’s crisp, tasty, and refreshing! My version is made with cabbage, two kinds, which hold up better than lettuce—lettuce is boring, and in almost every other salad—how many chances do you have to eat raw cabbage? Not…

Chicken Enchiladas with Green Sauce

PollyMay 2, 2010April 26, 2026

Mmmm, must have been the thought of Cinco de Mayo, but I’ve finally found a great green sauce for enchiladas! Not spicy—though it would be easy to up the heat—but tasty and tangy, which it should be, having being made…

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!
