Lentil Stew by Chef Lincoln Collins
Lentil Stew Lentil Stew is one of my favorites. Progresso’s is pretty good, but try this one, it’s better. You could make this with more water and get a soup, but I like it thicker and I serve it with rice or pasta — shells, rotelli or something like that. This dish is good to [...]
Zucchini Pancakes by Chef Lincoln Collins
Zucchini Pancakes I started making these a couple of years ago, alone and mixed with potatoes at first. They are quick and easy to make, are delicious by themselves, but also marry well with lots of flavors. Add fresh herbs, or dried, or not depending on your mood. You can make them low fat, using [...]
Grilled Tuna with Mango Salsa by Chef Lincoln Collins
Grilled Tuna with Mango Salsa This is a recipe I first made on the Blue Charm, Peter & Elaine Pratt’s sloop, on a trip to Nantucket. The next day we had an adventure sailing from Nantucket to Martha’s Vineyard in a Noreaster which whipped up. I almost ended up in the drink in Vineyard Haven [...]
FETTUCCINE WITH WHITE CLAM SAUCE by Chef Lincoln Collins
FETTUCCINE WITH WHITE CLAM SAUCE This is from the Classic Italian Cookbook. I always use canned clams and figure that it must be great to use real clams, but this is a fast and easy dish this way. Try it with a Caesar salad and Italian bread. Excellent for the middle of the week. Don’t [...]
Why should you buy a Fixed Index Annuity?
Many investors approaching retirement think they have no real need for annuities. However the lifetime-income guarantees offered by these insurance-company products can add security to portfolios which are mostly composed of stock and bond mutual funds. A market downturn that hits before or at the start of retirement can leave even conservative investors with far [...]
STOVETOP CHICKEN BARBECUE by Chef Lincoln Collins
STOVETOP CHICKEN BARBECUE Sometimes you just get a hankering for some barbecue, but it’s the middle of the winter. I first made this recipe in Vail, back in my ski bum days. It’s just a quick fry of a boneless breast of chicken, and pour on some barbecue sauce. You can make this with the [...]
Fixed Index Annuity Sales Close 2010 On a High Note

Total annual indexed annuity sales surged 6% this year to a lot more than $31.4 billion while income annuity sales improved 2% to [...]
Bacon, Onion & Cheddar Fritatta by Chef Lincoln Collins
Bacon, Onion & Cheddar Fritatta The difference between an omelet and a fritatta is how fast you cook it. The omelet should be cooked quickly over high heat stirring constantly. When properly done, it has a creamy texture. A fritatta should be cooked slowly. Neither should be overcooked. Overcooked eggs are a crime despite the [...]
Omelets by Chef Lincoln Collins
Omelets I am spoiled for eating omelets in restaurants where, to my taste, they cook them about 5 minutes more than the 30 or so seconds it takes to cook an omelet. The result is a hard chewy omelet. If you want to try a soft and creamy omelet, follow these directions. The favorite in [...]
