We haven’t made a lot of freezer meals for the instant pot but I’m starting to come around to the idea more and more. A lot of bloggers recommend using 64 oz round containers to freeze the meals. I don’t want to have to buy a bunch of those containers so I tried this trick…

Sloppy Joes – A new recipe that got 2 thumbs up from the kids
As school gets closer and closer – it gets me to thinking about freezer meals. I think what I love about freezer meals is that you do what you can when you can and you make your own rules. If you don’t want to do 10 meals at once. Don’t! I tend to make a…
Taco "Empanadas"
It seems that sometimes my mission is to find something fun to make for dinner that avoids going to the grocery store. I tend to stock up on things like crescent rolls and canned biscuits when they are on sale because they make a quick and easy dinner later on – even if I’m not…
Roast Beef Sandwiches
This is one of the first things I remember making for Mark when we were dating. It’s crazy that we’ve been together for 10 years now! Time surely does fly when you’re having fun. This recipe came from a page I pulled out of one of the many cooking magazines I had on hand. This…
Dilly Pretzel Sticks

We made these on a warm day where I was looking for a tasty dinner that didn’t heat up the house. I love “choose your own adventure” type of dinners and that is what this is. Fill your peppers with whatever you want. We had some leftover, cooked ground beef so I added some enchilada…
Blueberry Muffins Trick
Hi there! Do you love blueberry muffins but feel like there just aren’t enough blueberries? I do. Emily is my little fruit eater and loves them too. This isn’t a recipe as much as a fun little trick to add some freshness to your muffins when you see blueberries on sale for 4 for $10. …
Tamale Pie
My Mother-in-law and Father-in-law and I were looking through cookbooks and one had tamales in it. Someone mentioned that it had been a long time since having a tamale pie. When dinner rolled around – that seemed like the perfect thing to make. Betty found this Betty Crocker recipe online that seemed just like the…
Slow Cooker Breakfast Casserole
I’m late posting this but I wanted to be sure to share the recipe because we loved it and I’m sure we’ll be making it again. We made this as a part of the brunch we had back at our house to celebrate after Haley’s baptism. It worked out nicely that it could fit different…
