This pizza is fantastic! It has quickly become the favorite in our home. That says a lot since I make a lot of pizza – outdoor pizza oven included. The chewy crisp texture and lacy edges are delicious! I doubted this recipe at first because the 9 inch cake pans […]
Back from another long blogging break- I haven’t stopped cooking and have so many recipes I would love to share but life has taken some interesting, yet exciting, turns. I am homeschooling my 4 children this year and that has been quite the adventure to figure things out and adjust to […]
Lately I have been on the hunt to find great quick, easy dinner recipes. I don’t work a lot outside the home, so I tend to make more time consuming meals. But boy have I been tired and busy lately, so I thought it was good time to find great […]
It has been bitter cold here in the Northeast with tons of snow to go with it. Warm comforting meals have been the staple around here. This chicken corn chowder is warm, delicious, and filling and all my kids love it, so I can’t go wrong. It’s packed with veggies, […]
This cowboy spaghetti has quickly become a family favorite. And to be honest, it’s one of this cook’s favorites too, since it is super easy and quick to make with simple ingredients. I am one who, more often then not, puts a lot of time into every day dinner preparation, […]
Have you ever needed some cooked shredded or cut up chicken for a salad, casserole, appetizer or let’s be honest, one of the other million dishes out there that call for it? If your like me, you don’t like to waste your time or money to go get a store […]
Juicy grilled chicken coated in a garlic basil vinaigrette, topped with grilled tomatoes and marinated fresh mozzarella- what’s not to love.

I know hamburgers are simple and basic, but nothing can beat a perfectly seasoned, tender burger whether cooked on a hot grill or stove top. Over the years I have tried many different ingredients and seasonings in my hamburgers and have finally settled on this version that my whole family loves. […]
Lately, I have been eating eggs on everything. Partly because I have so many fresh eggs thanks to a wonderful friend, but mostly because I love them. I think they are great on leftover veggies like zucchini or roasted potatoes. But lately I have been eating them regularly on asparagus […]
This is the best grilled cheese! My husband proclaimed that I have ruined him for regular grilled cheese forever by making this for him. A grilled cheese made even cheesier with parmesan cheese cooked on the outside- yum! I have had a grilled cheese similar to this at a popular […]
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. […]
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 […]
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 […]
