I realized recently that my kids are getting spoiled by my cooking. We went to a Renaissance Fair over the weekend and because my daughter was one of the “entertainers” we got a free lunch. It was very simple meal and meant to feed a large group of people. It was white bread sandwiches with…

Marinated Cucumbers and Onions
It has been hot here. I know hot is a relative term but 85-95 degrees with 85%+ humidity makes us not very hungry at all. We have gone to the beach 7 of the last 8 days to escape the heat a bit. This is one of our favorite easy summer side dishes. It is…
Philly Cheese Hot Dogs
This month we are on the eat cheaply plan. We recently went on vacation and have tons of fun things planned for the month but it leaves little cash for groceries. As a stay-at-home mom I am trying to make my budget stretch as far as possible. Recently they had $.99 hot dogs on sale…
Italian Sausage Skillet Dinner
This is another one of those recipes that I started with what I could find on-line and then ventured off into unknown territory as I was missing some of the ingredients in the original recipe from Pillsbury.com for Skillet Lasagna. This was again a dinner for my family to eat on-the-go. It traveled well although…
Buffalo Chicken Pizza
I thought once school ended things would slow down and we would have leisurely dinners in the evening on the patio under little umbrella lights. Who was I kidding? I think things are busier than ever. I am still having to create dinners to go at least once a week. We are spending a great…
Barbecue Bacon Wrapped Meat Loaf
Recipes for bacon wrapped meatloaf have been all over Pinterest for about a year now and I finally decided to give it a try. My family loves all things bacon. Or so I thought…. I think I may have finally found the one item that contains bacon that my family did not LOVE! They liked…
Steak Hash
So we have been eating steak for the last two days. I had just a tiny bit of leftover steak from making the Steak Marinade that I saw on Pinterest from PlainChicken.com for the Best Steak Marinade in Existence. The recipe for the Steak Marinade is at the bottom of this page. I am always…
Pierogies with Bacon, Caramelized Onions and Broccoli
This meal was just from what I had in the refrigerator and freezer. I am trying to use up all our “supplies” so that I can start refilling this summer. So, other than buying a few fresh items my grocery shopping is extremely limited. I used boxed Mrs. T’s Pierogies in this recipe. They worked…
Beer Brats with Caramelized Onions
So, now that we have completely moved, AGAIN, I have finally found my camera cord and can start posting some of our meals over the past month or so. Life has been insane with packing, moving and unpacking but we did it. We are all moved in (well, except for the 30 boxes in our…
Meatball Mediterranean Pitas
I love quick easy meals and this is one of them that my kids love. Pre-made frozen meatballs, small appetizer size, cooked according to package directions. After they are fully warmed I cut them in half to make them even easier to use. Naan Garlic bread slightly warmed. YUMMY! Diced tomatoes, onions and feta cheese…
Paula Deen’s – Bobby’s Goulash
There is a story for this recipe as there almost always seems to be. I had planned on making Buttermilk fried chicken tonight but when I went to take the chicken out of the refrigerator it was still frozen solid! After two days of “thawing” in the refrigerator I couldn’t even break the chicken into…
