Sandwiches can be a meal saver on a busy weeknight. My kids always frowned when I would mention sandwiches for dinner. Then I realized that they were thinking plain white bread and cold cut sandwiches. That is boring. I found out if I spiced up ordinary sandwiches with pestos, seasoned mayonnaise, or even mustards the…

Turkey, Cheddar Cheese, and Apple Grilled Cheese
Do you know how to make one of the perfect comfort foods? Surprisingly most people get it all wrong. Low and slow is the way to cook it. It will get that golden, crispy, crunchy outside while having beautifully melted cheese inside. You have to be patient and not turn up the heat no matter…
Breakfast Sliders
My family loves breakfast for dinner every once in a while. I like breakfasts for dinner because they tend to be super easy and everyone loves it! These sliders are a take off on several other sliders I have made including Meatball sliders, Reuben sliders (one of my most popular recipes to date), and of…
Lasagna Bread – Revisiting an Old Favorite
This was one of my first recipes posted and one of my families favorites. Quick, easy meals are always tops on my list. This meal can be put together and baked in about 30 minutes. Just enough time to have the kids help you put together a salad and vegetable while the bread is baking!…
Italian Sub Pizza
In a blog post earlier this year I wrote about how I get inspiration for dinners. One thing I said was I try to take something we like and turn it into something new. Make a favorite casserole into a sandwich, a sandwich into a pizza or a soup into a casserole. This is one…
Giant Italian Sandwich – For Home or To Go
I haven’t talked much about our To-Go meals this year. We are coming back into the time when we will be having more of our meals on the go. This past Friday we were headed Lansing for the Michigan State Science Olympiad so I decided it was time to pull out one of our favorite…
Black Bean Burgers with Garlic & Cracked Black Pepper Aioli
Isn’t that a beautiful sight? I drove down by the beach while I was out running errands and the winter snow fencing is down. Here that is a sure sign summer is coming! Already the nights are getting longer – because we live so close to the Central Time Zone but are still in the…
White Barbecue Chicken Sandwich
All this traveling has really thrown me off my menu planning. I had to sit down last night with my calendar and a grocery list. We went through the pantry in the basement to see where we were with our groceries. We have been trying to eat as much as possible out of the pantry…
Grilled Pimento Cheese Sandwiches
I had never heard of Pimento Cheese until my sister-in-law made it for a Super Bowl party we were having at Walt Disney World. My family loved it. Then when we visited family last Christmas she made a whole dish just for us! The other night I was trying to think of something simple to…

Italian Stromboli
I had some frozen bread dough and needed something simple to make for dinner. My kids had a bit to eat at their choir rehearsal so they didn’t really want to eat a big meal and we had a large lunch so I was really not too hungry too. We needed something that was just…
A Plan B Dinner – Chicken Parmigiana Sandwiches on Garlic Bread Rolls
We all have those nights. Last week I told you about my daughter burning dinner (and my favorite pan) and the freezer leaking all over the kitchen floor. That night we ordered out. Emotionally there are nights I just can’t deal. But, most nights I have a Plan B in the background. When I do…
