I love recipes. I have a cookbook addiction and I probably get 6-7 cooking magazines every month. I love food, and I love great recipes. Here you’ll find some great options to put a quick meal on the table, or a great recipe for Sunday dinner or entertaining. I live in a fairly rural area, and our grocery stores don’t promote gourmand tastes. Simple ingredients, great and easy techniques, lead to fabulous meals. Give them a try and please feel free to leave a comment!

I found this recipe on Pinterest and adapted it a bit from the one Damn Delicious posted. Hubby had his with a fried egg on top, and really enjoyed it. Runny egg yolks are not my thing without toast, so I skipped the egg and enjoyed mine with a sprinkling of fresh grated parmesan cheese. […]
We try to do vegetarian meals once a week, some weeks we’re pretty good, some weeks we are not – at all 🙂 I was a bit apprehensive about this one – the flavors from the feta are pretty strong but Hubby really liked it, so that’s a win in my book. The picky boy […]
This. Was. Great. I love lasagne but its time consuming and expensive to make. This Deconstructed Lasagne Soup Recipe was the answer to my dilemma. I adapted a recipe from PeggyUnderPressure.com to fit what I had on hand and our tastes. She made balls with the ricotta and mozzarella and I just put spoonfuls into […]
