Last Sunday evening, I went to the store hungry. I had spent most of the day working on last week’s post Peanut Butter S’mores Dip and my people were ready for some relatively healthy food for dinner. Sausage stuffed with tomato, basil, and mozzarella to the rescue! Normally my weekly food shopping includes a trip to our […]
Peanut Butter S’mores Dip
S’mores are as delicious as they are messy. And my husband likes his s’mores with peanut butter smeared on one of the graham crackers. Now that is a mess. At his suggestion, I added peanut butter to a s’mores dip recipe that was glorious in its own right. He simply cannot resist the combination of melty […]
Scooby’s Organic Stew for Dogs
Yes, I cook for my dogs. It started when one of our dogs got sick and wasn’t interested in eating unless it was the good stuff but once you let that “Mommy’s cooking chicken for you” genie out of the bottle, there is NO way it is going back in. (The picture to the right […]
Low Carb Burrito Bowl
Who doesn’t love the taste of a giant burrito loaded with meat, rice, beans and delicious toppings? Have the delicious without the guilt with this better-for-you low carb burrito bowl! My husband has been “watching his girlish figure” since the new year and is spending some more time with his running shoes on. To help […]
Easy Overnight Oatmeal
Oatmeal is a yummy, hearty and healthful breakfast. But unless you eat the instant stuff, oatmeal is probably not on your normal weekday breakfast roster. It can – and should – be with this easy recipe that you assemble the night before. My go-to weekday breakfast has always been a bagel. I’ve been eating bagels […]
Berry Granola Pancakes
Pancakes are the ultimate breakfast comfort food. These Berry and Granola Cakes are healthy, easy to make and delicious. By using a whole wheat pancake mix that is loaded with fiber and protein, you get a cake that is super easy to make and pretty darn nutritious too. Especially this time of year, there aren’t […]
Easy Game Day Guacamole
Guacamole is one of the single most delicious foods made out of vegetables. I do like lots of vegetables but, in my humble opinion, the avocado is among the most spectacular. With a little bit of lemon, cilantro, onion and jalapeno you can turn that avocado into a glorious dip. And since you can make it a […]
Happy Camper Cherry Cobbler
Happy Camper Cobbler is one of the easiest and tastiest dishes that I cook when we are camping. It has literally had people running from nearby campsites for a serving of its hot-from-the-oven bubbly and sweet goodness. Nobody expects a homemade dessert on a camping trip and whether you have a camper with an oven, […]
Peppermint Filled Brownie Bites
One of my most favorite candies ever is the York Peppermint Pattie. Really, how can you not love the rich chocolate flavor paired with a center filled with cool minty creaminess? I set out to make brownies that gave you that rich chocolate and creamy minty flavor in every bite. My first attempt was a […]
S’mores Brownie Bites with Marshmallow Buttercream Frosting
I love s’mores. A lot. S’mores, however, are nearly impossible to serve and enjoy with any amount of dignity…. until now. These brownie bites are not only absolutely adorable but they are a perfect portion of decadence. One brownie bite will give you a “just enough” helping of that perfect combination of graham crackers, chocolate […]
