Oven Roasted Red Potatoes and Onions
Oven roasted vegetables are so delicious and easy to serve. No matter what it is, as long as the oven is hot, there’s good olive oil on hand and you season it with plenty of coarse salt and fresh ground pepper…you cannot go wrong.
HERE’S A GREAT VEGGIE COMBO
red potatoes, cut into 1 inch pieces

Fresh Cucumber Pickle Slices
Don’t these super fresh fruits and vegetables look so lovely? Good enough to eat!
Our good neighbor, Randy, brought them over. They were still hot from the morning sun when I shot this photo. Over the next few posts, I’ll show you how we ended up eating this flavorful bunch from Randy’s [...]
Sloppy Joes and Country Bobs
My kids have been begging me to make Sloppy Joes. It’s been SO long since I’ve made them, how could I say no? This time, I had something new to add to the sauce that made my family go back for seconds.
HERE’S ALL IT TAKES
1 pound of fresh, lean ground beef
1 teaspoon salt

4 tablespoons oil

Homecooked Purple Hull Peas
Fresh Purple Hull Peas are hard to come by around these parts. If you ever run across someone who grows them, I highly suggest that you get chummy with them.
Purple hull peas are very filling served on top of rice for a light lunch. They are usually eaten as a side veggie with [...]
Pineapple and Pork Stir Fry
This dinner is so quick to cook up, I can’t believe I don’t make it more often.
Naturally, my kids go for the pork, pineapple and rice and completely steer clear of the onions, mushrooms and red bell pepper. Oh well, it’s all good to the grown ups and everyone is happy to have something [...]
Fresh Fruits are Just More Fun
I couldn’t resist picking up a bag of cherries at the grocer the other day. It’s been so long since I’ve eaten them and it was time my kids discovered their sweet flavor. While I was at it, I picked up a big bag of seedless black grapes.
When I got home, I washed [...]
Black Bean Snack Bites
Black bean nachos are served regularly round my house. Well, the other day, I didn’t have my normal flat, restaurant style chips and I had to use scoops. The kids loved the variety (they thought I’d made something new).
I kept them simple for Max and Mag, but topped mine with chopped chicken, sliced [...]
Fancy Biscuits and Honey Butter
This is the simplest treat for kids, family and new friends. In my efforts to explore and compare honey, I needed a foundation to carry the honey from plate to mouth. I decided on using Pepperidge Farm puff pastry.
Of course one sheet made MORE than enough for my taste test. So, I [...]
Kid Comfort Foods
My little man, Max, was feeling low the other day. When I asked him what he wanted Momma to fix for him he said, “I want that red soup from the can, goldfish crackers and a hot cheese sandwich.”
What can I say? We all have our comfort foods that get us out of [...]
King Ranch Chicken Casserole
This is the MOTHER of all recipes ever posted on Simple Daily Recipes.
Anyone who’s been around here long enough, knows I don’t cook meals that call for too many steps. In fact, I’m pretty sure the only other extensive recipe I’ve ever posted was Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas.
Even though this recipe has a lot of [...]
