Celebrate National Cheese Souffle Day with my Award Winning Spiced Acorn Squash & Hickory Smoked Swiss Souffle

Celebrate National Cheese Souffle Day with my Award Winning Spiced Acorn Squash & Hickory Smoked Swiss Souffle
 
I recall receiving the oh-so unexpected and exciting email about my cheesy acorn squash soufflés being deemed as the winner of All You's Borden's Singles Sensations recipe contest. I was camping in the majestic Half Moon Bay at Pillar's Point RV Park and had just passed off my little girl, Kaia, to spend the week with her grandparents in Mt. Shasta, California. As sad as I was to see her go, my spirits were risen, as soufflés do, upon reading this news. Perhaps you'll find inspiration using Borden's Singles cheese varieties and share your story...
 
 
My recipe would be the perfect pairing with all the fresh northern-central ocean has to offer, particularly from the one and only Princeton Seafood Market!

Let's Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with Taco Tuesday Dishes!

Let's Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with Taco Tuesday Dishes!
 
Whether it's because I possibly was of Mexican descendant in a past life or if it's just in my nature I embrace many aspects from the Hispanic culture including love for the brightly alive colors, the celebrations, the language, the music and especially the FOOD! A favorite food celebration of mine that is commonly shared by many, regardless of their ethnicity or nationality, is known as "Taco Tuesday". So how appropriate it is that this years Cinco de Mayo falls on a Tuesday? When preparing tacos the possibilities are endless and there are no rules when it comes to using corn or flour tortillas, home-made or store-bought, steamed or fried...
