These are the BEST pork chops ever. I have even braved below zero weather this winter to have these grilled pork chops- Yes, they are that good. My family actually calls them “fake steak” because they almost taste like a really good steak. They are tender, juicy and so flavorful. […]
This is one of those posts that’s more like and idea than a recipe, kind of like one of the first few posts I did for Mexican Rice Bowls. I wasn’t going to post this because of the simplicity, but I figured why not? I am always trying to think […]
Ham in the slow cooker? I never would have imagined- but it was one of those life changing recipes. You will definitely want to bookmark this recipe for Easter! I always loved to cook a nice spiral sliced ham, but it took up my oven at too low of temperature […]
Sorry this post took more than a couple of days since I posted the perfect yellow cupcake recipe…. but our house got hit hard with the stomach bug this week. So, needless to say, I have spent the past several days caring for sick kids (and myself), doing laundry and […]
I have always loved jello when my digestive system is off- from a stomach bug or whatever. Of course, I sadly gave this up when I cut the dyes, artificial flavors and other nasty ingredients out of our diets. Then, recently, I came down with a serious digestive problem […]
I recently found this simple recipe for an amazing Italian dressing and I couldn’t be happier. Ever since I gave up buying pre-made dressings, because of the additives and ingredients in them, I have been searching for a great Italian dressing recipe. My search has finally ended with this recipe- […]
This is my go to recipe for potatoes. My whole family adores them so much that I usually make double batches of it. They cook up crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and are super easy to throw together. I often make enough to have leftovers and […]

It is amazing how we come to rely on and think we need certain “staples” from the grocery store. Bread crumbs used to be one of those “staple” items for me. That was until I realized how easy and cost effective they were to make, not to mention how much […]
I am going to warn you now….. These oats are meant to be used as a topping for yogurt or apples or ice cream, etc. However, I make no guarantee you will not be overwhelmed with the urge to eat them by the spoonful or pick at them all […]
I was actually never a fan of oatmeal. It’s a texture thing, I just didn’t like how mushy it was. Then I discovered steel cut oats and fell in love. They reminded me of a favorite childhood breakfast treat I had eaten. I would warm up leftover white […]
Here is a great recipe that is sure to be a hit for any upcoming Super Bowl feast you have planned. These little sweet bacon wrapped chicken appetizers are our favorite. I mean doesn’t just about anything (within reason lol) wrapped in bacon taste better? These are a staple […]
With all this bitter cold we have been experiencing here in the North East, I have been making a lot of soups. And this is one of the most amazing soups I have had. The cabbage cooks up with a sweetness to it and is not bitter at all. […]
Seasoned chicken breasts smothered in buttery mushrooms and onions, served topped generously with melted mozzarella cheese. Mmmm! This amazing one skillet chicken dish has been in our family dinner rotation for a few years. It is one I turn to often because it is super quick and easy […]
Here is a great recipe to start the New Year with. Homemade Yogurt that can either be made smooth and creamy or, with one extra step, into thick greek style yogurt. It is super healthy and full of that good bacteria that helps keep the digestive system working right, […]
