Exploring Culinary Delights and Unforgettable Destinations.
Alright, confession time. I’ve been to Chicago twice and both times I ate deep dish pizza until I thought I’d explode. Worth it. When I got home, I couldn’t stop thinking about that thick, buttery crust and all that melty cheese buried under a mountain […]
These simple lemon bars are slightly sweet and tart. Full of lemon flavor and sure to win your heart. We all probably have a recipe for lemon bars, or two or maybe even three recipes but these are the best I’ve ever made. Creamy Tart […]
Who doesn’t love a bowl of warm from the oven macaroni and cheese? If you raised your hand, read on. If you prefer chocolate, stay tuned. The original recipe we used for years was from The Vegetarian Epicure by Anna Thomas. Our copy was an early edition and […]
As usual, I had chicken in the fridge and didn’t know what I would do with it. For once, I wanted something that would make leftovers. So chicken pot pie popped into my head. But I didn’t have any pie crusts. Ugh. However, I had […]
You can eat it with any side or cold the next day on a slice of toast. I’ve got my Meatloaf recipe from my grandpa (like probably many of you use a family recipe). He just made the best Meatloaf of all time. I’ve never […]
When my kids were growing up they loved this meal. These flavors just go together. Something you might not know about me is I LOVEÂ SAUERKRAUT!!! When I was in grade school one of my best friends Dad and Mom were from Germany. Her Dad made […]
Sooooo, I have a confession to make. I’ve never cooked with brussels sprouts until this week. Crazy, I know. There has just always been something about them that not only didn’t make me want to cook with them, but I also really didn’t eat them. […]
Let me tell you, last week were able to go to Lake Powell with my Aunt and Uncle. We were celebrating their anniversary. Usually Charlotte does these delicious Paleo desserts for our trips. But this time I was able to surprise them, it was their […]
Did anyone else ever realize how much fun it is to wrap things up in egg roll wrappers and then eat them? Like, I just discovered this is a thing, and want to wrap everything up in egg roll wrappers now. Egg roll is the new […]
Chicken & broccoli is not only a staple in millions of households across the country, it’s also a staple in my heart. As in, if one day I woke up and found out that chicken & broccoli was no longer “a thing”, well, I’d go […]
Need a crazy good holiday breakfast recipe? If you miss Krispy Kreme, you might find these kind of the same only different. The dough is not as light, and they are baked, not fried, Â but they are so very similar to that Krispy Kreme flavor […]
My rich and fudgy grain free brownies are 100% flour free – meaning you won’t find anything like almond flour or coconut flour in this recipe! So what other ingredients can you make grain free brownies out of, you ask? NOT BLACK BEANS, you guys! Not that […]
Lemon is so refreshing! When I start thinking about desserts for spring and summer, my mind naturally goes to lemon. It just seems right. I was a little late to the lemon dessert game. Treats made with chocolate, mint or berries tended to capture my […]
Golden peaches caramelize under a buttery cake topcoat in the oven. This Peach Upside Down Cake beats them all. no contest. I make this for a dessert but secretly always hope there will be a leftover piece for breakfast. The buttermilk cake is moist and […]
I love this bread! It’s a bit dense, sweet, and tastes great with butter. However, I am one of the few people who had difficulty with the recipe. It took me three times to get it right. My yeast didn’t rise at all. Since I […]
