Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup
I love secret ingredients! Something that makes a recipe really different and stand out. The secret to this soup is… a bottle of beer! Beer instead of broth, now that’s my kind of recipe! (especially if you throw this together in the morning and take a little taster before dumping it in the pot..who doesn’t like…
Lemon Crinkle Cookies – Made with Cake Mix!
I have this pretty amazing kid. Ya, I know, spoken like a Mom, but I do, I do, I really, really do! She is 23, (where did the time go) and she has always had a very natural instict when it comes to cooking and food. She was 5 when she fell in love with Pesto…. so much for…
Skinny Caeser Dressing
Personally, I love Blue Cheese Dressing…Marie’s Blue Cheese Dressing to be exact. However, there comes a time when you have to make a change for the sake of your waistline and arteries….and up until now, I really couldn’t find anything that was a decent substitute. But this stuff is good…really good! 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil in…
Black Bottom Cupcakes
This is a tried and true recipe. It has been around since at least 1982. And how do I know that? I know that because my parents had a small restaurant and I used to bake these cupcakes every morning. Yup, just me and the crickets that found there way under our refrigerator from the pet store next to our restaurant…oh…
Skillet Pasta with Italian Sausage
Another Skillet Dish recipe! The working girl (and guy) has gotta love these. One pan, a few common ingredients and dinner is on the table. I adapted this dish from Country Cooks magazine. A subscription I sometimes love. Not all their recipes works for me, which is a bit bizarre since the entire premise of…

Skillet Italian Chicken with Orzo
I’ve noticed a re surge of the one pan dinner lately. Love the idea! Great for weeknight and a bit healther than the Hamburger Helper I remember as a child…but boy, did I love the Cheeseburger version! I love the idea of everything in one pan and bam, your dinner is done! What I don’t like…
Panini 101 – Make the perfect Panini! No Special Equipment needed!
You can use this basic recipe to make homemade Panini’s that are as good as any fancy sandwich shop or restaurant. I used fresh Mozzarella, Pesto and Roasted Red Peppers for a Caprese style Panini. I substituted Roasted Red Peppers instead of traditional tomato because I think it adds a lot more flavor and tomato’s can make your…
Eula’s Sunday Cheesy Chicken Casserole with Broccoli
Eula’s Sunday Cheesy Chicken and Broccoli Casserole! A no-fail, easy to make dish with ingredients you likely have right now. I’ll bet most people have a ‘go to’ casserole in their family recipe box…they almost all include a can of cream style soup…. and this one is no different! But every time I…
Caprese Pops!
Now how cute are these? Easy, no cook, impressive little appetizers. I put them in a pot of plastic grass…I thought it sounded cute…jury is still out on that one. If you don’t have a pot of plastic grass hanging around..you could stick the skewers in just about anything… get me started! Ingredients and Directions…
