1 can (16 oz.) diced tomatoes, drained and rinsed (actually, it’s better to use fresh tomatoes if [...]

A return to cooking, to hosting community dinner, and to blogging on Needs More Butter! This recipe is easy, easy, easy (hence why I thought I could swing it for community dinner).

Ham & Swiss Stromboli

Another recommended recipe, this time from the kitchen of Bethany Hansen (formerly of Koenig fame). B noted that the stromboli “will be MUCH more bready if you use frozen bread dough.
