Whoohoo! It’s grilling season again! This recipe was a chance to play with a chicken marinade that could be used to put on salads or topping for a Thai pizza that I’ve so been wanting to try. Let’s Get Crafty! Whisk together until well blended: 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar 3 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 tablespoon…

Crazy Easy Chicken Tacos in the Instant Pot
I haven’t been planning ahead with meals here lately. Each weekend I buy a few staples that I know we’ll need for the week and then work with whatever else we have in our freezer and pantry. This has been mostly a fun approach to use because it feels like I’m saving money when I’m…
Impossibly Easy Cheeseburger Pie
This is one of those meals that doesn’t look amazing but tastes delicious. I also believe that adding pie at the end of the name makes anything sound better. This is a classic Bisquick recipe that can generally be found right on the box. We added in some mixed vegetables – I may have been…
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. Let’s Get Crafty! 23 oz frozen…
Chicken Cordon Blue Casserole
One of the first meals my husband made for me when we were dating was chicken cordon blue. I remember being impressed with his cooking skills and over the years – I’ve appreciated how he always loved to go the extra mile to make things delicious. I had him in mind while I was making…
Hamburger Sammies
This recipe is a twist on one I posted not that long ago. (For the ham version – take a look back at my January 10, 2018 post.) This change-up was inspired by my son who really likes the ham ones but we didn’t have any ham on hand. Adding the green chiles to the…
Eggroll in a Bowl
Wow! I haven’t posted in almost 3 weeks! Don’t worry! We’ve still been eating! 😀 Right out of the gate – I want to share a recipe I’ve been wanting to try for a while. I honestly kept postponing it because I knew it wouldn’t be a household favorite. I took the plunge and made…
Do you plan to buy an extra ham while they are on sale? I do! Maybe two!
Ham is about to be on sale as Easter gets closer and closer. I came across this trick on Pinterest and just had to give it a try. It’s too easy not to share! All you do is dice up the ham and spread it out on a baking sheet. Put it in the freezer…
Cold Crab Salad
Full disclosure… this is imitation crab. My son loves imitation crab and that’s why there are a few pieces sitting to the side of the bowl that haven’t been cut and incorporated with the rest. I remember watching Bronco games as a little girl at my Grandma and Grandpa’s house when we lived in Denver and…
