Parmesan Roasted Brussel Sprouts
My husband smoked a brisket for our Christmas dinner and made twice baked potatoes to go with it. I wanted to do a side that was a little different than we normally do, so here’s a twist on brussel sprouts that my Mom and I really liked. Ingredients:2 lbs brussel sprouts4 tablespoons EVOO1/2 teaspoon garlic…
Broccoli Rice Casserole
This holiday classic is one of my favorite side dishes. I was super excited a few years ago that it was also a hit for our littlest kiddo that likes broccoli and loves cheese. I’ve tried several versions and this is a tried and true favorite. This poor recipe didn’t get a separate pretty picture,…
Butternut Squash in the Air Fryer

The air fryer is an amazing little gem that is transforming the way that kitchens can operate. Let’s Get Crafty! Ingredients:Butternut squashEVOOBrown sugar…
Layered Nachos Stack
Dips! Yay for football season and happy Game Day to you! The picture below includes the nacho stack with tomatoes, olives and green onions on top.

Creamy Baked Hominy
I had less than half of that mega 110oz hominy can to finish up and made a commitment to myself that it wouldn’t go to waste. Using it with the white chicken chili recipe was good and I wasn’t feeling like making pozole on this day but knew I needed to use it. I was reading Ree…
No Boil Baked Mac and Cheese
You know me and how much I love yummy food made easy. This isn’t a quick one timewise because it baked for over an hour but putting it together was super easy. AND you don’t have to boil the elbow pasta beforehand. WIN!! My husband and father-in-law were also wonderful helpers and my husband reminded…
Vermicelli
This is a little gem that I had for the first time at a family gathering at Mark’s parent’s house when we were dating. It’s so good and there is something special about the tastiness that comes from beef broth soaking into the noodles until they are fully cooked. Let’s Get Crafty! Ingredients: 1/2 lb…
