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!
Lemon Kissed Blueberry Muffins
Is it Spring Yet? My hands say no as they’re still shaking from another white knuckled drive on the icy roads. My toes say no as they shiver, un-pedicured in my fuzzy socks.

Potato Leek Soup
Snow Day = Soup Day!! After some late and early dismissal days from school we finally had our first official snow day! The kids were excited to play in the snow and I was looking forward to making a steaming hot pot of soup! Soup is one of my favorite foods to make and eat, and…
Double Chocolate Pavlova Recipe
Are you ready for some RED-HOT LOVE in the kitchen? I thought so! Well, as you’ll see this recipe brings all that and more! One of the things I LOVE most to do in the kitchen is to conquer. No, I’m not talking Game of Thrones type conquering; I’m talking about dominating your fears in…
Spinach, Mushroom & Pepper Stuffed Shells
These “holiday” stuffed shells are filled with lots of spinach, mushrooms and roasted red peppers…as well as three yummy cheeses! Great to feed your crowd!
Peppermint Bark Pretzels
Salty pretzel rods coated in all the sweet flavors or your favorite peppermint bark candy! Great addition to your holiday cookie tray! Makes a great gift too!
Pumpkin Mousse Trifle with Salted Caramel Whipped Cream
If you were to cross a pumpkin pie with a light fluffy cloud… this is what you’d get! It’s a super easy no-bake dessert that looks great layered in a large glass bowl or spooned into little mason jars. I love the creamy, fluffy texture that is layered with crunchy gingersnap cookies. And…well…salted caramel whipped cream just happens…
