Who doesn’t love quick and easy, especially in the summer I know once June rolls around, I hate the thought of turning on my stove. I also want to be able to enjoy as much of the Summer as I can because it goes so fast, so I don’t want to waste too much time in the kitchen. This quick and easy salad is delicious anytime of the year but a super easy dish to make whether you don’t feel like cooking, or you just need something quick and easy to bring to an impromptu BBQ. The best part is this will literally take you under 10 minutes to make…

A side dish sure to be the star of your dinner table
Let’s talk about my mom’s cooking. Whatever she cooks is always done with such effort and a lot of pride. Anything she makes is always so delicious and screams home cooking. One of my favorite’s is this side dish of her Sour Cream and Onion mushrooms.

A poor mans meal that is the ultimate comfort food
Sometimes I really miss my dad, ok, I always miss my dad. One of the things I miss the most is spending our Sundays with him at his house. My sister and I would go over and spend the day with him.

Bring on the fall recipes with a feel good one pot chicken chili
Yes, Fall is nice and all, especially the fall recipes. But I dread the end of Summer. It feels like it takes forever to get here so I like to hold onto it. And I’m pretty sure I’m headed to basic bitch hell for this, but I don’t like Pumpkin Spice. I said what I said. Maybe it’s because someone needs to pump the breaks on all the pumpkin spice madness in August. Believe me I like Fall, I do. I like the beautiful foliage, the really pretty fall colors. And at the END of September, I’m ready for it. I’ll take the pumpkin décor, and all the Fall things.…
