This one pot dinner (well, two I guess because of cooking the pasta) is absolutely delicious. That is, assuming you love Italian staples like sausage, green peppers, garlic, onions, and of course spaghetti. I came up with the idea this morning, knowing Kevin had mentioned sausage as a desired main dish for the week. Ingredients […]
Buttermilk-Oatmeal Bread
I plan on making most of our bread (at least for the time being) simply because it is extremely inexpensive and also it happens to be totally delicious. It’s so nice to have a bread machine because I can just toss the ingredients in, hit “dough” cycle, wait 1 hr. 50 minutes and then bake […]
Whole Wheat Oat Pancakes
I combined two recipes from my Taste of Home recipe card catalog to come up with these filling, nutritious, and de-double-licious pancakes. Fast and easy. These are a must. Ingredients 1 cup oats 1 cup flour (ap or whole wheat) 2 Tbsp sugar 2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp cinnamon 2 eggs, […]
Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
I am extremely proud to announce that this cookie recipe is a product of my own imagination. This morning while I was showering I had this light bulb moment–“What if I put cocoa powder into my chocolate chip cookies?” I love chocolate chip cookies and I LOVE chocolate so doubling up seemed like the perfect […]
Pumpkin Spice Granola
I love granola. I love all of Annie’s recipes. I have been loving pumpkin. Hence, when I was looking for ways to use up the remainder of my can of pumpkin puree, I knew this was a must. The hardest part (for me) about any granola is making sure it’s cooked thoroughly so it’ll be […]
Vegan Pumpkin Walnut Bread
I wasn’t necessarily looking for a vegan recipe. But when I saw Joy the Baker’s pumpkin bread, I knew it was the perfect way to use the remaining pumpkin puree after I had made her Pumpkin Spice Pancakes. Recipe makes 2 loaves (I cut it in half) Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 cups […]
Roasted Chicken, Potatoes, Onions, and Peppers
This dinner idea came to me as a plan B when I realized we were out of sausage and the original plan was roasted sausage and potatoes. The meal was perfectly complimented and juicy and delicious. It’s simple to throw together in a pinch and is reminiscent of camp cooking (which we absolutely adore!) (I […]
Whole Wheat Banana Walnut Pancakes
Oh. My. Gosh. These are seriously the best and most fluffy pancakes I have ever had the privilege of eating. It’s everything you want out of a pancake you might order in a restaurant only better and healthier and homemade! Kevin’s not a huge fan of nuts in his food, and though I loved the […]
Pumpkin Pancakes
When I saw Annie post this recipe yesterday (and realized they were originally posted by Joy the Baker, another favorite of mine) I really wanted to try them. I love pancakes and with a recent change in my diet (that is, I’m not going to be gluten free for the time being. It doesn’t seem […]
Crockpot Barbeque Chicken
I have made a recipe similar to this using pork shoulder but I am a personal fan of chicken breast. I decided I would make up this recipe this morning after thinking of it in the shower. What a great place for ideas. :) Kevin and I both loooooved this meal. It’s fast and easy […]
