OMG, this stuff is so good. If you like apple pie, you can have it every day on your English muffin. This is also good on ice cream and can be used in cake fillings. Yum! This is a canning recipe that is good to try if you’ve never canned anything before.
Garlic Herbed Butter
If you love fresh bread and butter, you’ll love fresh bread and garlic herbed butter. So delicious and so easy to make.
Clear Fruit Glaze for Cakes & Pies
This is pretty good stuff. It will make your cake or pie look like it was made professionally and it helps keep your cut berries looking fresh until serving time. It tastes pretty darn good, too.
Mexican Casserole
Peanut Blossoms
Umm, everyone loves these cookies. Everyone.
Almond Crescent Cookies
These cookies are favorites of Noelle and Alex over the holidays!
Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
These cookies are Dad’s favorites! Grandma Yo used to make them around the holidays.
Baked Ham
Hams are great for big crowds of if you want to have ham sandwiches for two weeks straight! This recipe is here specifically for my daughters, who have asked for it numerous times (but somehow forget it is here). 🙂
Macaroni & Cheese
Family favorite! Mostly made at Christmas.
Fried Zucchini Cakes
Our friend Bobby U is kind enough to supply us with a lot of zucchini during the summer, and they are HUGE! While I enjoy them braised with other vegetables, this is a really good recipe that is good as patties for a sandwich or appetizer-sized cakes for dipping.
Death by Chocolate Zucchini Bread
Yummy stuff that is a sweet-tooth satisfying tidbit. Easy to make and a good way to sneak a veggie into your diet that you or the family might not like too much. We moms be sneaky!
Real Chinese All-Purpose Stir Fry Brown Sauce
This sauce is AMAZING. Found it here, with a couple of minor changes. Just mix it up and keep it in the fridge for up to as long as your ingredients’ expiration dates, which could be weeks and weeks.
Savory Meatloaf
Comfort food doesn’t get any better than this. Serve with mashed potatoes, gravy and your favorite veggie. Hint: Save the drippings from your first meatloaf, freeze and use to make your gravy next go around.
Spicy Zuppa Toscana with roasted red peppers and gnocchi
Found this recipe here. Modified it a bit to fit Aaron and I’s tastes a bit better. Goes great with bread and butter and a side salad for a complete meal.
Lasagna Soup
Found this recipe here. Adjusted it a bit and it’s freakin good. Definitely a good winter meal.
Chili
We made this for a Sunday gathering with myself, Noelle, Alex, Chris, and Zeke. Added some sour cream, red onion, cheddar cheese, and crackers. Served it with some corn bread.
