NO BREAD! Prep ahead as this one sits overnight – you don’t HAVE to let it sit – but if your potatoes are still frozen when you put it in the oven, plan on a bit of extra baking time. I really don’t like soggy bread bake things – including french toast – so finding […]
Recipes
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!

Dad’s Chili
Can’t believe I’ve not posted this recipe yet. Daddy’s in town for a few weeks and I decided to make a pot of chili today. I know the recipe by heart, but couldn’t believe I hadn’t posted it on the blog. Chili is one of those things where everyone has their own version. This is […]
Chorizo, Potato & Green Chile Breakfast Burritos
It’s hunting season again, and the guys asked for breakfast burritos they can heat up on the camp stove griddle or right over the campfire for breakfast, lunch or dinner while they’re in camp. I cobbled together some ingredients and was pleased to hear that they are EXCELLENT additions to their camp staples of hamburgers […]
