This is a recipe handed down from generation to generation in my family. I have changed it for my family but it is still almost the exact same recipe my great-grandmother used. Do you have a dish like this in your family? This is the dish we make for holidays in our house. It is…

Cheesy Sloppy Joe Stuffed Potatoes
This past weekend my partner and I had to go to two different places for the weekend. My daughter and I headed to a Feis (Irish dance competition) in Detroit, MI while my partner and son headed to Rochester, NY for a family baby shower. Both weekends were crazy so meals are going to be…
Slow Cooker Cincinnati Chili
We still need some real easy slow cooker dinners for the next month or so. As I was looking through Pinterest for inspiration I found this recipe for Slow Cooker Cincinnati Chili on Half Hour Meals.com. (click for link to original recipe) Now, you know I don’t follow recipes but look at them for suggestions….
Steak, Roasted Red Pepper, and Feta Pizza with Balsamic Reduction
Well, the Unofficial Start to summer has come and gone. That four-day weekend seemed to pass by in a flash. From now until Labor Day our little town will be bustling with tourists. We tend to avoid the local beach and downtown area from now until after Labor Day. They get so busy and there…
Smoked Sausage and Bean Slow Cooker Soup
Another slow cooker day! I am trying to get my freezer cleaned out again this month as two weekends away and one birthday already this month have put a dent in our cash flow. Tonight is my daughter’s birthday party and next week is her actual birthday. So, we are trying to limit our spending…
Cheesy Tater Tot Casserole
Wednesdays are one of the few days that we actually eat dinner at a normal time. We are late eaters. We like to have dinner together so we are sitting down to dinner any time from 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm. But, Wednesdays are generally a bit earlier as no one has anything after 6:00…
Steak Pitas with My Menu Plan for the Week
Do you menu plan? I never used to but now I cannot live without it. I plan for about 1 month because we get paid once a month and I do my stock-up shopping then. But, if one week or two weeks may work better for you, give it a try. My menu for the…
Baked Turkey Sloppy Joe Egg Rolls
So Feis (Irish dance competition) season has officially started for us. We attended the Dayton Feis in Dayton, Ohio. This was the first time for us attending this Feis. It was in a large airport exposition warehouse which meant there was lots of room and it didn’t feel crowded at all. We didn’t get to…
Garlic Butter and the First Outdoor Grilling of the Year
So, the weather has finally turned here in Michigan to the mid 70s. It has been gorgeous the past few days and has allowed us a chance to finally start grilling outdoors. We love to grill out but it always takes a few times to get back in the groove. Where are the tools? How…
Meatball Subs
I am in a comfort food mode if you can’t see it by looking at my last few posts. I seek out the creamy, savory, flavorful meals I remember from being a kid or that make me feel warm and good inside. I know food can’t solve everything but right now, it is okay. Sometimes…
Italian Sausage Stuffed Peppers
When you need dinner on the table quickly having frozen dinners in your freezer can really help make the dinner process go much smoother. Casseroles, stuffed peppers, soups and lasagnas freeze very well. Make a double batch of dinners either on a weekend or when you have extra time to make dinner one evening and…
Lettuce Wrapped Tacos
I love this picture. I can tell we are in Spring and Summer mode for dinners as we start to look for more vegetables and less meat in our meals. I went to the grocery store yesterday to pick up the lettuce and a pepper for dinner and everything looked so good. I was sticking…
