Sausage Dressing – Thanksgiving Must
Sausage Dressing is hands down our families favorite dressing. How do I know?? After 4 dressings, a blind taste test and an overwhelming vote… the winner has been named!! Changing a Texas Girl’s World Being a good Texas girl I grew up eating cornbread dressing every Thanksgiving. The very traditional version of cornbread with onions, celery, and cornbread. My mom would bake the cornbread days in advance and prep anything she could to make her cornbread dressing. This Texas girls life was changed though a couple of years ago, I was introduced to bread and sausage dressing and it changed my life. It was full of flavor, the bread…

Wesley’s Breakfast Casserole
I always love my time with my AMAZING Niece and Nephew and this weekend was one of the best. Not only did we get a lot of “chill time” but we played a ton of games, laughed until our bellies hurt and we also cooked… rather the kids cooked. First they made dinner (stay tuned) and then breakfast. My niece, Audra, made French Toast Casserole (recipe coming soon) and Wes made this delicious Breakfast Casserole. Start Your Day Off Right! They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and my nephew loves a good hearty breakfast… sometimes he even has two. So when we started talking about…

Stuffed Honeynut Squash
Honeynut Squash is my new favorite squash. Not familiar? I wasn’t either, until last week. They are everything you love about butternut only smaller, sweeter, more tender and perfect size for individuals sides. Honeynut = Cuteness & Yumminess I was walking through Trader Joes looking at the produce and came across these super small butternut squash. I was intrigued as I had never seen one so small. Just then an employee walked up and asked if I had ever had a butternut squash and pointed at these adorable little beauties.

Gluten Free Thanksgiving Dressing
Thanksgiving is just around the corner… like literally AROUND the corner and I have the BEST dressing recipe ever (& it is gluten-free)! Yep I said… THE BEST! It is all about the gluten free bread… In my opinion what makes this dressing the best is the bread! Surprise, surprise it is made with gluten free bread! I know I was shocked as well. The gluten free bread is naturally already drier in consistency and once you toast it to a golden brown it truly does become the perfect bread to carry all the dressing seasonings without getting too mushy. So how did this dressing happen you ask? Well, last…

Italian Sausage & Brussels Sprouts Skillet
Italian Sausage & Brussels Sprouts skillet is a must make. I am getting ready to jump back onto the KETO bandwagon and this will be on my food plan for sure. Skillet Meal in NO Time One of the best things about this one skillet recipe is how quick it comes together…in 30 minutes you can have dinner on the table. The sausage cooks down and gives you just enough grease to sauté the shaved sprouts in, and it adds a TON of flavor to the dish s well. I purchase my brussels sprouts already shaved which saves a TON of time, if you cannot find them already shaved then…
