Green Chili is truly its own separate love language in our household. I have so many wonderful memories of trying different green chilis from different places with Mark as we started dating. It was the beginning of a wonderful future! Over the last few years we’ve played with the recipes from our Moms. Let’s Get…
Chicken Tacos on Naan with Peanut Sauce
Happy Sunday Funday! I’m excited about the recipe I’m sharing today because it evolved from one that I wasn’t super excited about into something quite tasty. I made Hawaiian chicken in the crockpot. It’s a frozen meal that I made two of… my family wasn’t a fan of it served over rice but I didn’t…
Everyone's Favorite Chicken – Recipe from my Mama
My Mom gave me this recipes maybe 10 years ago. I think she clipped it from a newspaper- that sticks out to me because it doesn’t seem like newspapers have that many recipes in them. This one is truly so delicious that I can understand why it was in the paper for everyone to see….
Carnitas from the Crockpot?!
This is a two step process that starts with the crockpot and then ends in the oven to achieve that crispy carnitas texture. It was very tasty and a big hit to the kids because they could put whatever they wanted on theirs. Let’s Get Crafty: 3lb pork roast (I just bought whatever was on…
Dinner at the Yardbird
We joined some friends for a birthday celebration over the weekend at a new place called Yardbird off Pearl Street. It was comfort food at it’s best in a cozy, comfy atmosphere. They also serve breakfast all day! I had the Birdblat that was a BLT on a croissant with avocado and some chipotle aioli…
Dinner at Shanahan's Steakhouse
Mark and I went on a date weekend to Denver and kicked it off with dinner at Shanahan’s Steakhouse on Friday night. As we were waiting for our reservation we ran into Mike Shanahan himself! He was so friendly… I still miss seeing his face on the Bronco side of the field. He’ll always be…
Pizza Soup
I love soup season and we are definitely smack dab in the middle of it. The inspiration of this recipe came from a Taste of Home Soups magazine 2017 Edition that I picked up at Costco. It was on that same trip of wonderfulness that a big container of mushrooms and 6 pack of colorful…
Tuscan Ragu
My brother-in-law and sister-in-law made an awesome dinner last night to celebrate my mother-in-laws birthday. I told them it was so delicious that it was absolutely going on the blog! This recipe comes from the Good Housekeeping February 2017 issue. I’m cheating a little bit here and including the pictures of the recipe because I…
Do you like to be crafty in the kitchen?
Hello friends! Sorry I haven’t posted for so long… Papercrafting time eludes me these days. Another form of craftiness close to my heart is trying new recipes that I think my family will like and want to eat. My blog is going to start including kitchen craftiness that has gotten two thumbs up from our…
Christmas Cards
Good Morning! I decided to take a couple minutes while I sit by my beautifully lit Christmas tree with my puppy (and before the kiddos are up) to put together a blog about some fun Christmas cards. These are using the Deck the Halls Cut Above card kit. What I really like about Cut Above…
