Buttermilk Poppy Seed Bread



Remember the blueberry bread I made?
Our friend was over and he kept talking about how good it smelled and kept asking if I was baking it for him?
The answer to that was, "NO!"
But then I started to feel sorry for him.
So I baked him a loaf of breakfast bread.
But I didn't have anymore fruit to do the blueberry bread . . .
 . . .and I wasn't going to the store just for some blueberries.
So I made this instead.
It was equally as easy.

It smelled just as good baking!
I think this is a keeper too!
Buttermilk Poppy Seed Bread
 
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup buttermilk
½ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon extract (butter, almond, lemon, vanilla . . . your choice)
2 tablespoons poppy seed
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Prepare one loaf pan; lightly grease the pan with shortening and dust with flour.
In a medium bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.


In a large bowl, combine sugar, eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, extract of choice, and poppy seed; whisk together until well blended. Add flour mixture; stir just until blended.

Pour batter in the loaf pan. Bake 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Remove pan from oven and let cool about 15 minutes.

Slice and enjoy!

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there. Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe. It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out! But because these are simple ingredients, you'll be able to throw it together in a moments notice!

Creamy Poblano Chicken Dinner

Picture used from "My Recipes.com" My picture didn't look nearly as appetizing! We've been eating this since the late 90's. Oh man!  That sounds like we're really old! This is one of those fantastic Southern Living Recipes that looks really hard, sounds really gourmet-ish, and is so easy! Whenever the Mr. requests his birthday dinner, it's always this meal! He had his 43rd birthday yesterday! To go along with his new "older" age, we recently counted the number of doctors he has. Yes, doctors! Right now in life, it's not his social outlet to visit these physicians on a regular basis . .  .but none-the-less, he has a well-rounded network of doctors that can take care of any need of his, ranging from his head to his toes. What a treat it is to get older. But with getting older comes this meal! Serve this with a green salad and dessert and you'll be the hit of the party! Creamy Poblano Chi
