Speedy Scalloped Ham and Potatoes
This is a twist on the recipe my Mom used to make as we were growing up. I remember her saying this was my Dad’s favorite. I think about him every time I make it. I should make it for him someday and see what he thinks. What are the twists? To cut down on…
Ham and Beans – Slow Cooker or Instant Pot
I LOVE ham and beans. The recipe is so easy that I wasn’t going to post it. I took pictures to send to my Grandma Jean because pairing it with cornbread will always make me think of her making it for us while growing up. So many of my best memories growing up were at…

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…
