It’s another cold, snowy day in Colorado and chili feels like the perfect dinner! Each of us eats ours differently and I thought it would be fun to take pictures. There aren’t any special ingredients or tricks to the recipe. We had this on another cold night where some warm comfort food was needed. This…

Mississippi Roast with a Twist
Okay. Here’ the thing… I’ve seen this recipe on Pinterest on so many sites for years and thought it looked delicious. Why haven’t I made it? Because- seriously! A whole stick of butter! What?! Looks delicious? Absolutely. Healthy? Not so much. I followed the recipe in general and then did a little trick at the…
Turkey For Christmas?
Our tradition growing up was having turkey for Thanksgiving and then ham for Christmas. I actually made this turkey the day after Thanksgiving but have been waiting to share it closer to another holiday where someone might be excited to see. I have a secret – I love roasting turkeys. Love it. When they are…

Doritos Chicken Casserole
This recipe was shared with me by someone at my first job out of college. I remember making it for the first time and loving the process of preparing it as much as I loved eating it. We’ve had it so many times over the years and it’s still a big hit. Let’s Get Crafty!…

Oven Fajitas – Round 2 and 3 and 4!
Here’s Tuesday! We used up our leftovers from the oven fajitas in a few ways by making some queso to eat with naan bread turned into “chips” and inside burritos. I even set aside 1/2 cup to take to work for a salad! Let’s Get Crafty! Preheat oven to 350 For the queso: 1 1/2…
Oven Fajitas
Who loves fajitas? I know I do. I especially love them at a restaurant when they come out of the kitchen on a sizzling skillet. These aren’t on a sizzling skillet but they are quite tasty and I love the way some of the onions caramelize and get crispy edges in the oven. It takes…
One Pot Sausage and Pasta
Well… it could be one pot. But I was trying to bust it out faster and sometimes having the veggies cook with the turkey sausage takes longer… So tonight this was a two pot meal. Let’s Get Crafty! Saute together until softened: 1 tablespoon butter 1 onion, diced (I used half of an onion because…
Texas Ranch Chicken Casserole
This is an oldie but goodie from the Six Sisters’ Stuff blog. This recipe was made on a night where we were running behind and kept running into obstacles getting dinner on the table. This recipe is pretty close to theirs with some small adjustments. Emily and I went to the grocery store after work…
