Animal Fries {Totally Tasty Tuesdays}
I caught wind of these on The Girly Girl Cooks and she had me reeled in. The recipe uses Ore Ida Fast Food Fries. I've never heard of them, but now that I have, I plan on using them to dip in my homemade Frosty. I love doing that at Wendy's. Without the cheese and stuff, obviously. Try it sometime. Nevermind the weird looks you'll get. It won't matter. On to the fries...I've only been to In-N-Out Burger once. In Vegas. I don't remember these, but I love them in my kitchen. I didn't have Thousand … [Read more...]

Recipe Round-Up {Strawberries}
Hey everyone! I am loving this spring weather that we finally have in my neck of the woods. It is a gorgeous 73 degrees outside and I am heading out to mow my lawn. Before I do, I wanted to round up my strawberry links. Strawberry season is here in full force and I love it! I made some jam last week and I bottled it this time. I usually freeze it, but wanted to try something different. Success! I have to thank Brandie for the recipe round-up idea. I've seen it other places, but she reminded me … [Read more...]

Choose Your Flavor Cake
Choose Your Flavor Cake is one of the best cakes you make because you can make it into any flavor. It doesn't even need frosting! My sister-in-law brought this cake to dinner one day and I love it. It is more like a quick bread/cake. And the best part is that you can choose how you want it to taste. You just pick your cake mix and a pudding mix and there you go. You can simply dust it with powdered sugar and be done or drizzle it with a glaze that matches. Lemon glaze, chocolate glaze, … [Read more...]
Greek Souvlaki aka Pork Shish-Kabobs
These sound fancier and harder to make than they are. It's basically marinated pork on a stick. Not too scary. I wanted to share these before it gets too cold to use your BBQ grill. You could also cook these in your oven. They are delicious with lemon juice squeezed over them before serving.Greek Souvlaki2 lbs. pork roast cut into bite sized chunksAccent or Season Salt1 1/2 tsp. salt1/2 tsp. pepper1/2 Tbsp. garlic powder1 1/2 tsp. garlic salt olive oilwhatever veggies you want to addMix all … [Read more...]
