We’ve been on a cabbage kick lately–something I never thought I’d say. :) The stuff is great fresh and crisp on top of a sandwich or cooked and added to a myriad of dishes. It’s mild flavor is the perfect accompaniment to flavorful meals. With the addition of cooked sausage & onions and finely the […]
Deep Dish Sausage and Pepper Pizza Recipe
Pizza is a Friday night must-have in our house. No questions asked. Most of the time our pizza is the same. (I like routine). Crust a la bread machine, sauce, cheese, green peppers, pepperoni, onion. The result is a nice crispy crust on the thin side. We love it. But every once in a while I […]
Summer Squash and Sausage
When I received a few homegrown summer squash and zucchini from our neighbors, I knew I wanted to find new and creative ways of incorporating them into our meals. We didn’t have much time before the first night of VBS, so I started chopping vegetables before I had any clear idea of the direction I […]
Eggplant, Sausage and Peppers {Italian Style}
In my refrigerator sat a beautiful eggplant, just asking to be eaten. I don’t always never know how I’m going to use an eggplant when I buy it.

Baked Penne Pasta with Sausage (Slow Cooker)
I have never experimented with cooking pasta in the Crockpot, but tonight was the right time to try! I didn’t really have a dinner plan (or even a dinner thought) until almost 3pm. My first piano student was arriving at 4pm, the last would leave around 5:35pm and we had to be at church for […]
Spicy Italian Sausage Chili
I was heading up a big fundraising event for our youth group. The Church-wide Chili CookOff and Softball Night. Everyone was encouraged to bring their best pot of chili. And winner would go home with a $10 Applebee’s gift card! Though I had been planning and plotting this event for months, one thing never occurred […]
Jambalaya
As Kevin and I were out shopping Monday and he saw a box of Jambalaya. He goes through these craving moments that pass quickly, but I thought he was on to something. I wasn’t about to pay for some sodium laden box of Jambalaya mix so I decided to make my own. I came up […]
