Waiting For Spring...

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 27 Feb 2014 20:30:00 +0000

Though Fall and Winter are my favorite seasons, I must tell you I am ready for Spring! I am tired of freezing fingers and a chilly nose, not to mention the constant drip of that cold little nose. As I wait for Spring and it's official first day, March 20th, I thought I'd share with you a few new recipes I found on the internet that look especially delicious!

I am excited to try some of these this weekend...and I encourage you to do the same, if you find yourself in a recipe rut carried over from the cold Winter months.

Lucky Salad and Delicious Dessert

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Fri, 17 Jan 2014 17:56:00 +0000

Lucky Black eyed Pea Salad

You don't have to wait for New Year's Day to enjoy a delicious salad. I found this Lucky Black eyed Pea Salad recipe and decided it was scrumptious any time of year, or for any occasion. I thought you might want to try it too!

Pecan Cheesecake Squares

And I couldn't, in good conscience, sign off without sharing this dessert, Pecan Cheesecake Squares. If you enjoy cheese cake I suggest you get to a kitchen near you and try this one. The pecans only make it that more yummy. My only problem with this recipe - the squares are way too easy to pick up and eat.

I Love Crepes!

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 09 Jan 2014 21:00:00 +0000

Nutella Strawberry Crepes

My family thinks I have gone crazy, cray-cray, off the deep end...you get the idea. I am obsessed with crepes. I love them. I would eat them for every meal if I could get away with it. And I figured if I love them this much, surely someone else out there in the interwebs must love them too!

Since I can't get my husband to discuss crepe with me, you are the beneficiary of my two new favorite crepe recipes! First, the Nutella Strawberry Crepes - a true gem in my book. Seriously, what's not to love here? Nutella - yum! Strawberries - yum! Wrap them in a tidy little pancake and voila - mouth made happy! Also, I can substitute just about any fruit in for strawberries if they are not in season here in Idaho, or if my boys demand something else. They are big fans of blueberries and apples too.

Spinach Bacon Crepes

This next crepe makes my mouth water and is very different from the more dessert-ish crepe above. (Yes, I just made up that word, dessert-ish. It's fun though right?) The Spinach Bacon Crepes are possible the most delightful breakfast or brunch meal possible. And my husband will eat them. (He thought crepes were sissy-food, until meeting this one.) Without the mushrooms. But still. He will eat these crepes when he won't eat any other kind. There you have it. Husband approved crepes.

What's your favorite crepe or pancake recipe? I'd love to hear from you in the comments!

Thank Goodness Its Fall!

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 07 Nov 2013 20:55:00 +0000

Fall is my favorite season! I love eating comfort foods, soups and stews, and warm buttery rolls and biscuits. But man cannot live on bread and dumplings alone. Here in the northwest (Idaho) it is a bit more difficult to get super fresh fruits and veggies like cucumbers and broccoli. Yes, we do have large produce sections at the grocery store...but sadly, some of my favorites show up sort of droopy and wilty-looking.

With that in mind, in fall and winter, I have to improvise a little more and get creative about how I prepare and serve fruits and vegetables. Here are just a few recipes to get you started serving fruit and vegetables that are appetizing and creative!

Cucumber Salad

Pasta and Garlic Roasted Broccoli

Rigatoni with Fresh Tomatoes

Banana Buttermilk Cake

Apple Crisp

A Football Feast For The Tailgate

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 19 Sep 2013 17:30:00 +0000

Being close to a state university, we get some spirited football fans and tailgating going on every weekend during the fall college football season - and we love it! Tailgating is one of the highly versatile activities that can be enjoyed by die-hard fans and casual cheer sections alike.

I am always on the look out for a new recipe that can convert to a tailgating touchdown when it comes to good eats. Here is where I give a shameless shout out to Bronco Nation, BSU Broncos and my alma mater!

Mulling It Fall Over

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 29 Aug 2013 18:16:00 +0000

I admit it. I am anxious for fall. It's probably my favorite season by far. I enjoy the blossoms in spring, swimming weather in summer and cozy fires in winter. But there is something about fall that is the perfect blend of apple cider, pumpkins, scarves and hay rides.

I love school carnivals in fall, harvest parties, carving pumpkins and corn mazes. But most of all, I delight in being able to start making some of those heavier dinner and desserts such as chili, potato soup in a bread bowl and carmel apples - you know, the dishes that are just too hot for summer? Anyway...

With that in mind, please indulge me as I share some of my favorite fall recipes:
