Moist Lemon Bundt Cake

I came up with this lemon cake after being inspired by this wonderful recipe for Old Fashioned Hot Milk Cake (and my love for lemon 🙂 ). I have been looking forward to Spring to arrive here in the Northeast and lemon is just one of those flavors that reminds me of spring […]

Maple Brown Sugar Slow Cooker Ham

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 […]

Homemade Jello

   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 […]

My Favorite Roasted Potatoes

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 […]

Seasoned Bread Crumbs

  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 […]

Cinnamon Gooey Butter Cake

Caramelized Oat Topping

  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 […]

Easy Steel Cut Oatmeal

     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 […]
