I feel so generous to share this with you. Because it is a gift — a really good one. I made this recipe up years ago, and have watched my family turn into Dill Pickle Dip monsters. I wish I had video taped some of the scenes around the pickle dip bowl. Have you had […]
Luscious Lemon Cake
If this doesn’t make your mouth water, you may want to get that checked out. :o) This is how you throw together a dessert for family or friends and stop the show with old-fashioned, lemon-packed flavor. A rich, moist, decadent dessert — this is one you’ll turn to, like I do, time and time […]

One Pan Crispy Chicken and Potatoes
Friends, I’m all about making complicated food completely from scratch and all the work that entails. But sometimes you just need that meal that you pop into the oven and it’s done. Three ingredients (plus seasonings), less than an hour, and one pan to clean up. And you can completely customize the amount to the […]

Pork Tacos (Carnitas)
I have been looking for just the right recipe for Mexican style pork for quite some time–ever since I fell in love with the cheese enchiladas covered in pork and salsa verde from my local Mexican restaurant. Nothing has quite hit the spot. Until these. The word Carnitas means type of “little meat” that has been […]

Hearty Vegetable Soup with Barley

Savory, flavorful soup packed with veggies, made hearty by barley, and featuring ground beef or leftover beef or pork roast. This time I had leftover Beef Roast, but if you like to buy cuts of meat that you can use […]

You just get a warm, lightly salted, crispy potato chip that will change the way you look at chips forever. Shown here with Creamy Garlic Dip, these beauties […]

Creamy Garlic Dip
Perfect in its simplicity, this three ingredient dip is classy and delicious. We first ordered this loveliness at our very favorite restaurant ever. And then ordered it again, and then I just had to make it. I’ve now been making and serving this for probably 15 years and it’s just one of the most delicious […]

THE Banana Bread
I heart anything made with bananas. Banana pudding, Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins, bananas sautéed with honey (more on that later), bananas dipped in the best hot fudge that ever happened — with or without ice cream, and of course, banana bread. I have made and enjoyed many varieties of banana bread over the years. It’s the perfect […]
