While on holiday during spring break there were some things that I really wanted to do and trying several news recipes was pretty high on the list. We had this pizza dip as part of an appetizer dinner on Thursday during March Madness. Stay tuned for the recipe for the pizza crust dippers. They were…

Restaurant Style Salsa
This is a spin on the salsa we had at a restaurant the other night. Quick and easy… barely any dishes. Win Win. I forgot to take a picture of the salsa by itself, so here it is with the rest of the dinner for our middle kiddo. She went back for seconds and liked…
Next Level Banana Bread
Remember a little while back when I had extra bananas and wanted to try my favorite banana bread recipes side by side to see which was our favorite? We did end up making more banana bread and turns out one small twist can make either one the favorite – we sprinkled some cinnamon sugar on…

Mini Banana Bread Loaves

Crispy Baked Tacos
These aren’t fancy but they sure are good. The crispy cheese along with the corn tortilla that gets nice and crunchy really takes these from okay to yum-o. This is more of an idea than a recipe because you can make the filling based on what you have on hand or maybe some leftover meat…
