Mussels are something that I didn’t try until I was an adult. I’m all about the sauce and the crusty bread that goes along with them. These mussels are simple and delicious. I wish we had some parsley on hand to sprinkle over the top. That would have added the perfect layer of freshness to…

Creamy Shrimp Dip
Funny story. My husband really liked this dip and similar ones I have made in the past when I throw together shrimp with veggies and different cheeses we have on hand. It wasn’t until we snuck away for a recent date night at the Rio that he got Queso Fundido that he likes served with…

The kids were super excited when I said we would be having donuts for breakfast and then confused when I said we weren’t going to the store to pick them up. These are ridiculously easy and so tasty! I’m sure the tastiness factor increases with the level of butter used to help the cinnamon sugar…
Instant Pot Speedy Mexican Rice
This is a spin off the recipe back in April 2018 using the instant pot. The recipe stays pretty close to the same but the rice to broth ratio is adjusted to account for using regular rice and not instant minute rice this time. It took a couple tries because I didn’t have enough broth the…
