Welcome to Tonja’s Table. I have been inspired by many friends and family to share my recipes and love for cooking.
If you know me personally, you know I’m not a very “crafty” person. For example, I think they invented scrapbooking just to make me feel bad. But these mason jars make me want to be crafty because everything just looks so cute in them! An easy, everybody-will-love taco dip recipe is what I am making…

After listening to Bon Appetit’s podcast on David Grohl’s (Nirvana and Foo Fighters) BBQ obsession I am absolutely craving anything BBQ. He has mastered the grill like his music. I wanted this to be easy, tasty, and without a lot of hands-on time so I put together a killer seasoning rub and amped up the…

Memorial Day kicks off the summer season and that means just 15 weekends until labor day for us to pack it all in with friends and family. Start the celebrations with my favorite zesty grilled pork chops. They are marinated ahead so you can toss them in your cooler and head to the lake. If…

Fontina cheese has a mild, somewhat nutty flavor, while rich, herbaceous and fruity. It’s a great melting cheese. Serve these with a crisp dry Rose’ and…
My Mom is everything to me. She’s my champion. She’s always there for me–for my husband, for my kids. She is the definition of self-sacrificing. She also has a sense of humor that makes me laugh like no one else. Mother’s day is a time to be grateful for all those amazing Mom’s out there. …
Going to a Derby party this weekend? Hosting one? None of the above but you just want a really good slider to make? These Kentucky Hot Browns are an obvious choice for the Kentucky Derby. They were originally created in 1926 at the Brown Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky. They would feed late-night revelers at the…
…Not to be confused with Ina Gartens Engagement Chicken. Are you trying to get out of the dog house? Or maybe trying to woo someone special? This chicken dish really is worthy of marriage.
