Overnight Breakfast Casserole with Sausage

I’m sure I’ve shared in the past how much I love breakfast casseroles.  I especially love the ones that you make the night before and just throw in the oven to bake in the morning.  This one is being made for a potluck at church after our Sunday service.  My husband doesn’t really like breakfast…

Frog Eye Salad

Peanut Butter Thai Noodles

I’m a sucker for peanut sauce and like trying different versions of it.  That’s what made this recipe catch my eye.  The recipe itself is from Taste of Home in their Quick & Light cookbook from Spring 2015.  Yes, it true.  I’m a cookbook hoarder.  I buy them and read them for years.  Our house…

Sweet Chicken Meatballs

Hello Everyone!  Thanks for stopping by.  The little lady and I tasted these meatballs for the first time when they were being offered at Costco.  They are called Teriyaki and Pineapple Chicken Meatballs from Chef Bruce Aidells.  They were so tasty they had to be added to our cart.

Refried Beans from the Instant Pot

Our daughter loves beans.  She seriously loves them!  I’ve been wanting to try them in the Instant Pot ever since I made Ham and Beans that turned out so good.  Thanks for the recipe, Jacque!  These are awesome! Let’s Get Crafty! Turn the IP to saute and throw in the pot for a couple minutes:…
