Mandarin Salad and an iPad Giveaway

January 1, 2013

This is another great recipe given to me by my grandma. And since it’s the New Year, I thought we would start it off right. With salad. And sweet sugared cinnamon pecans. Okay, so it’s not the healthiest of all salads, but c’mon people. I’m trying here. Just like in real life, I’ll be back [...]

Shogayaki Chicken and Apricot Rice

March 22, 2012

I always know when I get home and unpack my groceries if I had to stand in the check out lane too long. I come home with magazines. Some girls like People, Us, and Cosmo…I like Saveur, Taste of Home, and Everyday Food! But I found a new one that I had never seen before. [...]

Mini Meatloaf and Corn Casserole

January 3, 2012

Yep, teeth are still hurting. No treats again today! Instead, how about a perfect weeknight dinner recipe? This is my easy meatloaf with a side of corn. Spruced up a little bit for a more filling meal. My really good friend Rhonda made this corn casserole for us many holidays ago. Through the years I’ve [...]

Frozen Cranberry Salad

November 23, 2011

In my family, Jello salads are served at every holiday. Sometimes it is just a classic bowl of Jello, and sometimes it’s something fancier like Pretzel Jello. Grandma always serves something cold with lunch and dinner (at least I sure hope that wiggly cold dish is Jello)! Here’s the problem I have with Jello: there [...]

Best Mac and Cheese Ever

November 22, 2011

In college I was a mac and cheese lover. I made some nearly every night of the weekend. However, I never parted with that blue box. I mean really, it was the cheesiest. I would try mac and cheese at restaurants, but they were always so bland that I never attempted to make it myself. [...]

Pesto Pasta

August 16, 2011

Right now I have basil bushes growing in my garden. Three of them. It’s a lot of basil. One of my favorite things to make is homemade pesto! Well, that and bruschetta. The kids were a little afraid of the overwhelming “green factor”, but it turned out they really enjoyed the pasta! The best part though, [...]

Potato Salad

June 2, 2011

I’m sure every family has their own potato salad recipe. This one comes from my dad’s side of the family. Grandma Bauer. Isn’t it funny how some of your favorite memories of people revolve around food? I imagine one day, long after I’m gone, that may be how I am remembered. Grandma Bauer made the [...]
