What do you do when you need to go grocery shopping, but you just don’t want to and all you have in your fridge is a couple carrots, an onion, and a few stalks of celery? I just hate going out and running errands in the cold winter weather. So I knew I would have…

Salted Honey Butter Pop Corn
I guess we all survived the Mayan Apocalypse, which is good because I wasn’t looking forward to giving birth in a post-apocalyptic world…or dying. And hopefully everyone had a great Christmas, too! I know I enjoyed visiting my family in Idaho (even though I had to fly back to Ohio on Christmas Day). Two big…
Spaghetti Squash Casserole
I love this casserole! It’s really easy and the Italian flavors really perk up the squash. I will usually tolerate winter squash, but this in this meal I forget that I don’t really like squash. It reminds me of a yummy baked pasta casserole. Just make sure you plan enough time to roast the squash…
Easy Corn Bread
Last week I posted the recipe for Black Bean Soup and if you looked carefully enough, you could see a thick slice of corn bread in the background of the picture. Corn bread is just one of those recipe’s that you should always have up your sleeve to serve on a cold winter day with…
Healthy Black Bean Soup
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I sure did. My husband and I had 3 other couples over for Thanksgiving Dinner and it was delicious! I know everyone is gearing up for Christmas, now. I know there will be another round sweets and feasting before the New Year detox, but I can’t help but…

Chocolate Chipotle Chili
If you read my previous post, you will know that I competed in a chocolate and chili cook off as a church activity. Every one brought either a chocolate treat or a chili. I brought one of each. Although, I kind of colored out side of the lines and threw a little chocolate into my…
Chickpea Veggie Soup with Smoked Paprika (GIVEAWAY!!!)
I know most foodie bloggers are posting super bowl recipes right now, but most super bowl recipes are heavy, fatty, and greasy. When you think “game day”, don’t you think chicken wings, burgers, chips, soda? I do too, but this year I am still going strong with my new year’s resolutions, believe it or not….
Texas Roadhouse Roll’s
For some reason I panic when people ask me to bring rolls to events. I guess it is because I have had so many flops when it comes to making rolls. For thanksgiving, the rolls that I had made 3 times before with success, turned out hard and dense and flat. I don’t know why,…
