German Meatloaf

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 […]

Kielbasa Apple Caraway Sauerkraut Skillet

When my kids were growing up they loved this meal. These flavors just go together. Something you might not know about me is I LOVE SAUERKRAUT!!! When I was in grade school one of my best friends Dad and Mom were from Germany. Her Dad made […]

Honey Garlic Roasted Brussels Sprouts

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. […]

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 […]

Double Chocolate Brownies

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 […]

PEACH UPSIDE DOWN CAKE

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 […]

Amish White Bread

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 […]

Crockpot chili for the season with pumpkin, chicken, corn and chickpeas. The pumpkin elevates an everyday, mundane chili into something exciting. Pumpkin is a unique and unlooked for ingredient in savory cooking due to its popularity in desserts. I know it sounds a little strange […]
