This slow cooker beef and vegetable stew is my very favorite way to eat a lot of vegetables. If you’ve read aby of my other soup posts you know how much I love a good hearty and chunky soup. This soup is basically the heartiest of all the soups. I love this soup because I…

I really love fudge, but when you make a batch and there’s only 3 people in your family eating it, there’s too much to eat before it gets a bit dried out. I wanted to make another Christmas treat and decided to make a take on the peanut butter cookies that have a Reese’s in…

Raise your hand if you love a good salad with a ton of veggie toppings?! I love a good salad. Tons of different flavors and textures in the same bite. I love that the dressing and marinade for the chicken and salad are the same thing making this even easier. Homemade salad dressings are honestly…

This recipe comes from a Macfarlane family cookbook my mother-in-law gave me when I married into the family. It’s my husband’s Aunt Megan’s recipe (tweaked a tiny bit) and it says on the recipe that it’s Martha Stewarts recipe.

This is what my mom has made for breakfast for at least 15 years. Honestly, I don’t remember what she did for breakfast before this dish. She always made 2. One with ground sausage and one with bacon. Christmas Breakfast Casserole is a great Christmas breakfast because it can be made a day before so…

One of the recipes I’m most excited to share on this blog is my mom’s sausage gravy recipe. I need to have her make it in front of me while I’m measuring and writing it down thought because she doesn’t ever use a recipe. When I make it I don’t either so I need to…
