One evening I had chicken I needed to make before it went bad in the fridge. I had no idea what to do with it so I made this up and my husband liked it so much he asked me to make it again 3 days later. So I did. I decided to write down…

Continue ReadingI discovered blender muffins this past year and I’m in love. These Whole Grain Chocolate Banana Blender Muffins are one of my favorites I’ve made. No worries of over mixing the batter and added bonus of it being gluten free with whole grains rather than flour. They’re much healthier for you than a normal muffin.…

If you live next to a Zupa’s you should first say a prayer of thanks and second go and eat there for me but don’t tell me you did or I’ll be jealous. I was craving their soup and decided to try and make it. I honestly haven’t had their cauliflower soup in forever so…

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…

Because of this, I typically don’t make a normal Rice Krispie Treat because they don’t taste as good. However, I really love fun…

This is a recipe for the best buttermilk fried chicken. Finland doesn’t do fried chicken. Anywhere. That’s not true. At a mall just outside of Helsinki there’s a fast food supposed-to-be-knock-off of KFC and it’s….. so not good. Like at all. So I’m not counting that. I made fried chicken only a few times before…

This fudge is a take on a family fudge recipe but tweaked to make it possible to work with ingredients I can find readily in Finland. When we move back to America I will make and post the original recipe too. They are both delicious and both should be enjoyed! I love fudge so much.

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…
