Hello Bundt Cake! I’m glad we’re friends again… Quite a few of my previous Bundt cake efforts have ended up in flow-over/smoke-up-the-kitchen incidents and many, many stuck-to-the-pan cake crumble disasters. I almost gave up on Bundt cakes altogether, but I sure am glad I didn’t cause this triple chocolatey cake sure was worth the wait!!…
DIY Mason Jar Lemonade Kits – Summer Party Favors
The perfect summer sipper! My girls love drinking from Mason jars lately – maybe it makes them feel a little country in our suburban jungle. So, for a party my daughter was planning, she came up with this lemonade kit party favor idea. Each guest took home a Mason jar with a straw top lid, straw and…
Red, White and Blue Flatbreads
What’s the difference between pizza and flatbread? I wondered this myself and found through a little online “noodling” that there are no hard and fast rules for the two although some say a flatbread is usually: – Not round – Very thin – Flat all the way to the edge – Not covered in sauce…
Oreo Upside-Down Sheet Cake
Mmm…delicious moist chocolatey cake, studded with unmelted Oreos, topped with an Oreo crust, drizzled with icing and sprinkled with more Oreos. Ding, ding, ding – we have a winner!! My girls request this for their birthday cake every year!
Slow-Cooker Salsa Chicken Rice Bowl
This is one of our favorite easy weeknight recipes! We make it 1-2 times per month year round! Everyone loves it and it’s great for busy nights when everyone is eating at different times. Set up a toppings bar, and everyone can top their bowl with whatever they like. The chicken mixture freezes well too!

Strawberry Lemonade Brownies
Sweet, Tart & Fruity! I had the best strawberry lemonade at a family birthday party last weekend! We were celebrating my daughter and my niece both turning 13 this spring! The lemonade was sweet and tart and fruity – kind of like thirteen year old girls – hehe! (Love u girls!) Well anyway, Stacy, my cousin-in-law…
Roasted Cauliflower and Cheddar Soup
D#$% you Panera Bread! Based on heredity my kids should be soup lovers. I’ve been trying to win them over for years and sometimes they like it, sometimes they don’t, sometimes they just humor me and stir it around in the bowl willing it to evaporate. But take them to Panera Bread and suddenly soup…
Cornbread and Taco Stuffed Peppers
Stuffed Peppers (Piñata Peppers) filled with taco seasoned ground beef and a cornbread topping is baked right on the top! These are a family favorite at our house! They’re fun to cut into and see the filling spill out like a piñata! We serve with yellow rice, sliced avocado and some toppings!
Roasted Cabbage Steaks with Prosciutto and Balsamic Glaze
I love cabbage when it’s roasted…and…topped with shallots, crispy prosciutto and drizzled with balsamic glaze and some freshly grated Parmesan cheese…mmm!
