Apple Cranberry Pie

Thanksgiving is a couple of weeks away. How this even happened, I have no idea. It felt like 2019 just started a couple of months ago, and here we are, another year has come and gone. Though I hate how fast time seems to have been going lately, I am more than thrilled about all […]

Cast Iron Skillet Cornbread

Cornbread is one of those types of breads that I associate with the colder months that are filled with soups and chili and all things hearty. There are a million different cornbread recipes and some people like it sweet, while others prefer their cornbread savory. This recipe is definitely a savory version, but I have […]

Hamburger Soup

This time of year is kind of blah in the PNW. The time has changed and feels like it is midnight at 4:30 pm. It is gloomy and rainy all day long. And, it is cold. Because of this kind of weather, my heart (and tummy) craaaave soup. Gimme all of the soups! I love […]

Tres Leches Cake

Tres leches cake, which translates to “three milks” cake, is one of my favorite cakes to make. It is also one of my favorite cakes to eat. While meal prepping before Aric returned from his deployment, I just K N E W I had to make this naughty thing. If you were to ask him, […]

Corn Casserole

The holidays are around the corner. Halloween has come and gone, then it’s Thanksgiving later this month, Christmas, and then a new year will be here. One of my favorite parts of the holidays is to be with family, continue traditions for my own family, and well, let’s face it, the food. Holiday food is […]

Croissant French Toast

My husband’s all-time favorite breakfast food is French toast. Sometimes, I find that French toast can get boring and kind of, well, soggy. So, I decided to try and mash up two French items together. Croissants and French toast? Seems like a no-brainer to me. It turned out better than expected and I may not […]

Garlic Smashed Potatoes

These garlic smashed potatoes will be your new favorite side dish.

Sopapilla Cheesecake

Living in Washington, I think one of the thing I miss the most about being in Texas is Mexican food. I have yet to find a R E A L L Y good Mexican food place here, but there have been some decent places. …but, none of the Mexican restaurants serve sopapillas. I MISS SOPAPILLAS […]

Chicken Spaghetti

As we have established many, many times, I am a sucker for all things pasta and all things in the form of a casserole. And guess what, chicken spaghetti fulfills both of those things. Creamy, cheesy, and homey, chicken spaghetti is comfort on a plate. I love to make this dish in advance, pop it […]

Slower Cooker Beef and Broccoli

It’s fall, which means it’s officially Crockpot season. I’ll be honest, I do not use the slower cooker too often though I probably should more since it is so easy! I always find myself not prepping adequately by not starting the dang thing in enough time. But when I do plan accordingly, this is one […]
