French Bread Pizza
French Bread Pizza is the lazy person's way of making pizza. It's so easy and tastes amazing with the french bread. I don't like taking photos of food for my blog when other grown-ups are around. They usually don't get it. Even my husband. He's all, "How many pictures do you need to take?" I mean I was only on my 7th picture or something. He doesn't get that you gotta have lots to choose from in case some don't turn out. Other grown-ups just don't get it at all. "Why is she taking … [Read more...]

Busy Day Lasagna Toss
Lasagna is one of my favorite comfort foods. When I make it, I use cottage cheese instead of Ricotta. It's just the way I've always eaten it. Once, I tried making it with Ricotta cheese and my husband didn't love it as much as he did with the cottage cheese. So I went back to using cottage cheese. Why fix something if it isn't broken and all? But lasagna is not a fast meal to prepare. This skillet version is. While I still prefer the classic version, this is a tasty substitute for when you … [Read more...]
Slow Cooked Sirloin
I am a Taste of Home Field Editor and part of my job is to review 3 recipes a month on their site. What a hard job, let me tell you {sarcasm font here}. This Slow Cooked Sirloin recipe is so easy to throw in the slow cooker and walk away. It's great anytime of year, but in the summer when you don't want to heat up the kitchen it's perfect. Next time I am serving it over thick slices of bread, topped with mashed potatoes and then the sirloin and gravy. I can't wait to make this … [Read more...]

Red and White Pasta
This Red and White Pasta is my new go-to recipe when I want something quick. Normally, spaghetti falls into that category. But even that is a struggle for my Preston who doesn't like many tomato-based meals such as lasagna and spaghetti. Crazy kid. But he likes this meal and I like it better than spaghetti so it's a winner. We normally don't add any meat to this, but you can add ground beef or shredded chicken if you want. Or you could use the spaghetti sauce with meat in it. Serve it along a … [Read more...]
