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

Ms. Lucy’s Dessert
This is the easiest, most delicious, most –press the crumbs with your fork– moist cake, you will ever eat!

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 [...]
Tuna Salad for the Ladies’ Luncheon
Nothing says Ladies' Luncheon like finger sandwiches, ice tea and rich desserts. Last week, I signed up to make tuna salad sandwiches for my Community Bible Study class. I love a GOOD tuna salad sandwich. No other sandwich is more filling.

Spinach Salad that Stands Out at Parties
The first time I read this recipe, I wasn't so sure about it. I knew if I served it up to a group of women, it would go over just fine. However, this would be to my couples Sunday night life group. This was a group that had burly men and picky eaters all mixed [...]

I remember the pang of guilt that shot through me, when I considered that [...]
Aunt Deb’s Layered Salad
My Aunt’s layered salad YUMMY! Our family eats it every time we have Italian meals. It’s great to make for pot luck gatherings and can easily be made ahead. In fact, this layered salad tastes better when made one day ahead of eating it.
This recipe makes A LOT of salad, perfect for potluck, holiday dinners, [...]
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 [...]
