Texas Chicken Chili

I haven’t made this recipe in a very long while.  Honestly, I forgot all about it.  I found the original recipe, Arizona Chicken Chili, off the back of a can of corn, many, many years ago.  But seeing how I don’t live in Arizona, I live in Texas.  I’m calling my version, Texas Chicken Chili.
HERE’S [...]

Sloppy Joes

The kiddos love this quick, delicious Sloppy Joes recipe.  I’m cooking them tonight to get away from the Thanksgiving leftovers.
Do you happen to have more desserts leftover than other foods?  Our fridge runneth over with sweets.  Last night, I had the hardest time deciding which pie I would eat again.  So I compromised, I sliced [...]

Traditional Roast Dinner

I love my crock pot or slow cooker, as some say.  It is the perfect plan ahead meal tool anyone could use in the kitchen.  So long as, I plan ahead in time.
I’m always torn as to how long I should actually cook my roast beast, 4-6 hours or 8-10 hours.  When I loose [...]

Friday Night Pizza

Just about every weekend, we eat pizza. To keep the meal fresh and fun, I mix up the toppings from week to week. Pizza out is okay every once and a while, pizza at home is the best! I buy the ready made crispy crusts. We like Mama Mary’s Pizza Crusts [...]

Roasted Chicken Breasts

I’ve been watching so much Barefoot Contessa on TV. I decided to copy her roasted chicken technique. It’s so simple, I had to make it. I admit it! I get in cooking routines and forget to try something new.
Now, this ‘technique’ is not new to the cooking world, it’s just new [...]

Beans n’ Cornbread

“Beans, beans, the musical fruit!“
Tuesday night, we had friends over to the house. You remember from the Simple Cocoa Brownies recipe? For dinner, we ate baked ham, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes. I heard that! Yes, I know I served two starches. Half the crowd consisted of children that I [...]

This is an easy chicken pot pie recipe that anyone can bake.
Homemade chicken pot pie is a favorite comfort dish for my whole family.  This particular recipe came from my Memaw, she was a comfort food queen!  (Man, I miss her cookin’.) You will want to plan a whole morning or afternoon in the kitchen, [...]

Camp Burritos, the Original Recipe

Camp Burritos were created on a family camping trip, some 8 years ago.  The burritos are hardy, filling and AWESOME any day of week!

Camp Burritos are the first meal I serve all my new friends, with and without kids.  It’s a winner with everyone no matter what their food preferences happen to be.  The dish [...]

Chicken Spaghetti with Black Olives

Are you like me?  Could you eat pasta dishes everyday, if your waistline would allow?  I always tell my husband that whenever we do get around to visiting Italy, I’m losing my passport after we get there.  I’ve dreamed of eating in Italy ever since high school.  All I want to do is eat when [...]

Saturday Night Lasagna & Sunday’s Lunch

Again, I’m sorry there’s not a photo of this DELICIOUS recipe.  Good food and hungry families don’t wait for photo shoots.
Let me begin by saying that my daughter is not a tomato sauce fan.  I usually prepare something different for her when we have Italian food night.  Yes, I know there are white sauces, but [...]
