Citrus Pecan Cheese Ball ~ We might not know who’s playing at the big game on February 5th but if your a “planner” like myself it’s never to early to start thinking about your game day menu. Sometimes you want a little more gusto or that little extra something to add to your evening or […]

Vegetable Mini Quiche with Bread Crumb Crust ~ Mother’s Day is such an important day and for me it has truly morphed into something even more special over the years. This has happened not just because I became a mother myself but with the the friendships I have developed with all types of moms from all over […]

Strawberry Shortcake Biscuits with Coconut Whipped Cream ~ Spring is officially here and there’s a lot to celebrate. The weather is amazing in Texas right now, the roads are lined with gorgeous wild flowers, and it’s strawberry season ~ yippee! My oldest son just turned 11 –– holy moly ~ I am not sure how that is […]

Orange Cranberry Bread with White Chocolate Pecan Glaze ~ This week I am all about Texas citrus. One, to hopefully keep everyone healthy this holiday season –– believe me, we’ve had those holidays where we all try to avoid that one sick kiddo coughing up a storm in the house (or worse!) and it’s no fun. AND two, because […]

If you haven’t noticed I have back to school fever. All week I have been talking about it and celebrating. Anyone else? From our Fish & Grilled Rosemary Chips dinner celebration to Natural Back to School Lunch and Snack Ideas with Chef Rachel Zierzow, to my happy dance with Cucumber Mint Wine Slushies it’s been […]

Kale + Three Cheese Quiche ~ Call it a side dish, call it dinner, or even call it breakfast –– Quiche, AKA Egg-y Pie, is a monthly occurrence in our house. I love the simplicity of baked eggs served in a pie shell and the ease of being able to add just about anything to this […]

Mediterranean Risotto ~ You know it and I know it –– it’s here(!) –– so we might as well embrace the incoming fall season. For some, it can be a bit all too overwhelming as the holidays start to stack-up and the pressures that go along with them begin to flicker into sight. For others, it […]

I don’t need to tell you it’s fall because there is really no escape from the autumn frenzy happening across the nation right now. Pumpkins are in everything and pumpkins for breakfast, lunch, and dinner is the new norm. In our house one of the kids favorite things to eat, and boy do I mean […]

For some reason, this year, I didn’t plant any jalapeño peppers in our garden. I really can not remember if there’s a reason as to why? Or if I was just making room for something else to try in our garden? or just my forgetful brain? One of the beauties of planting peppers is that […]

Honey Mustard Broccoli Chicken ~ There has been a slight theme going on around these parts as of late, have you noticed? I’ve been all about the e-a-s-y weeknight dinner. This is not a new trend for me, or anyone for that matter, but I have been trying to add more and more options to our […]
