This one is simple, really simple. The key is to have fresh, sweet peaches. I have never made a peach cobbler or peach crumble with canned peaches. I’m not knocking it if that’s your thing, it’s just not mine. My Grandma Kay loves this peach cobbler while my friend Gwen prefers the peach crumble (I’ll […]
It’s hot in Texas. Triple degree hot and y’all, it’s not even officially summer yet! When it’s this hot outside, nothing hits the snack spot like a nice cool cucumber and tomato salad. What makes it even better? Grandma’s garden fresh tomatoes! Now I realize not everyone has access to tomatoes fresh from the garden […]
This ONE is fun, mostly because you can change up some of the ingredients that you or your family will love. I get that not everyone likes goat cheese or tomatoes…maybe not a huge fan of avocado? No problem! If you stick with the basics of this pasta salad, you can easily add or take […]
I love apples. I love sugar. I love cinnamon. I love butter. I love just the right amount of crumble. I think you’re probably picking up on a theme here. Now, a lot of people think of this dessert with oats and nuts. You know what I don’t love? Oats and nuts. However, you can […]
I’m actually not sure about the lean or mean part of these beans but it’s the first thing that popped in my head. I AM absolutely sure these beans are not only delicious and full of flavor but super easy to make.
Although there is absolutely zero Italian blood running through my veins, I have adopted the country….and the food as my own. I love, love, love Italian and everything it represents. Also, cheese. This recipe will be a crowd favorite and it’s one of my more simple go to dishes. Need to impress that date….or shine […]
Chicken and dumplings are pretty much my go-to during the winter months. I watched three generations of women in my family make them and I always wanted to create my own version. Below is my recipe after years of practice….with some major fails along the way. This is the easy, shortened version. Enjoy!
What a perfect time to post my pot roast recipe for the first official day of fall, the start of the comfort food season! Actually, it’s always a good time for pot roast but there is something about the fall that makes this dish even more savory. This recipe does require a dutch oven as […]
Yes, yes, it’s obvious…by my recipes and my stories…and my heartburn, I LOVE SPICE. Hatch green chile season in Texas is a close second to college football season for me. Naturally, I knew my next steps (after purchasing an insane amount of hatch green chiles) was to create recipes in which I could incorporate this […]
My cousin Shannon is the one we should all thank for introducing me to this casserole…a casserole that will complete any backyard BBQ. I have made this for years with only one recent addition which I think really completes the dish- pan roasting the corn. Shannon is my fellow Longhorn fanatic in the family. We […]
