I got this recipe from my sister-in-law The Girl Who Ate Everything. It’s a Denney family favorite, made by our mother-in-law Sheri. I’ve had her Pumpkin Bread before and it’s soo good I can’t believe I’ve never made it, or that I don’t even have the recipe on hand–especially considering my obsession with pumpkin. Rather…
Main Dishes
Stuffed Biscuit Cups
My 8 month old is on the move. He’s the fastest little army crawler and he moves all over our tiny apartment. Making dinner and chasing him around, I tend to lose focus, forget a step, or screw something up. Needless to say, quick & easy meals are what I’m going for lately, which led…
Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls…..
Is there such a thing as pumpkin overdose? I might find out this holiday season because I’m searching high and low for new pumpkin recipes. These Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls from Taste of Home are the latest find. The pumpkin flavor isn’t very strong, but the caramel glaze gives them just the sweetness they need….
Turkey Sloppy Joes
It’s no wonder where Sloppy Joes get their name. I’ve never eaten one that wasn’t sloppy, have you? Well, meet the even Sloppier Joe. Not kidding, you’ll be licking your lips, fingers, and then licking up all the drippings on the plate. Not that I did.. no… I would never…but my husband…
Turkey & Veggie Tacos
My 7 month old isn’t a picky eater….he wants to eat, and will eat anything and everything. Right now, he loves sweet potatoes, peas, and carrots. I wonder how long it will last? I’m sure someday I’ll have to sneak his veggies in. And when I do, I’ll resort to these babies. I wasn’t trying…
Cinnamon-Oat Pancakes
I’m not a big breakfast person. I’m good with a bowl of cereal, toast, or a shake. I’d much rather have the real breakfast foods, for dinner. Ya know, pancakes, waffles, french toast…that kind of stuff. Probably because I actually really like it and eat way too much, and end up feeling stuffed, slow and…
A Dish that Kicks….
This Spicy Orzo and Black Bean Salad has some kick to it…just the way my husband like its. It’s how he likes all of his food actually. He is the guy that grabs his favorite bottle of hot sauce or crushed chili peppers before he even tries his food. It used to bug me; I…
Salsa Chicken & Flatout Salad Bowls
I love simple meals. This is one is so good we ate it twice last week, and not because we had leftovers, but because we liked it that much. Grab yourself some Jack’s Special Garden Fresh Gourmet Medium Salsa and some Flatout Flatbread (both can be found at Costco and both are favs at our…
Green Smoothie
My old boss used to come into work almost every morning with this funky-looking green drink. It took me a few months of working there to finally ask, “What the heck are you drinking?” When he told me it was full of spinach, I almost gagged. But he told me how nutritious it was, and…
Black Bean Burgers
My husband and I aren’t vegetarians. We like meat! But we were at a barbeque Saturday night and some of our friends that are vegetarians, grilled up some black bean burgers (from Costco). They looked super tasty. I really wanted a bite! I asked them if they ever make them themselves and they said yes,…
