KETO Quiche
Since I started on my KETO journey I have been seeing egg “muffins” all over Pinterest. I have been wanting to make them for a long time and today was the day. Now I am kicking myself for not making them before now. Options…Options and more Options In my book options are always a good thing. I wanted to have something that everyone would like so I went with a bacon option, a sausage option and an all veggie option with bell peppers. In each option I added in chopped spinach and chopped onion. Personally all were SO GOOD, but the bacon was my favorite… everything is better with…

One Pot Cajun Pasta
I just don’t think you can ever have too many one pot meals in your arsenal of recipes. It is even better when the one pot meal is loaded with TONS of flavor, cheese and is super easy. One pot…thats all The beauty of this dish is that with everything being cooked in the same pot the flavors just keep building as you continue cooking, giving this dish a TON of flavor. First you start with the chicken, spices then the sausage and then comes the cream and pasta. Everything comes together perfectly and then you stir in the cheese to finish off this super easy meal. OH the…

Even better it is loaded with veggies and yummy turkey smoked sausage making this dish not only easy but also delicious and not so bad for you too. Season, Season, Season To make this dish really stand out it is all about the seasoning. To keep it simple though I chose a seasoning mix that brought a ton of flavor but you probably already have everything you need in the pantry. I mixed together salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder and dried parsley. If you wanted to use your favorite all purpose seasoning you could…

a dressing like no other
Are you a stuffing or dressing person? Are you a cornbread or bread dressing person? We are cornbread people here. Well I am here to tell you I have another option for all my die hard cornbread dressing friends. Trust me it is AMAZING! An apple a day… The old saying goes “an apple a day will keep the Dr away”. This delicious side may not keep the Dr away but it will make you feel VERY good. If you would have asked me a month ago if I would put apple in my dressing I would have said NO WAY, but it has changed. Our sweet friend Andrea said she wanted…

Gravy, please
When you ask The Hubby what he wants for breakfast his typical answer usually is biscuits and gravy. Now his new favorite biscuits are these butter biscuits and his favorite gravy is this sausage gravy…so I bring you The Hubby’s Dream Breakfast. Don’t be afraid of gravy (like I used to be)… So when I first started cooking there were 2 things that I just couldn’t get the hang of…gravy and crust. Now I know some of you are probably laughing and shaking your head and trust me I did as well. I would ask myself why I couldn’t get these simple recipes down each time I would try to…

Whats on the grill? Are you doing burgers (like these sliders)? How about those fries I posted yesterday? Maybe some BBQ chicken or fish?

This last week The Hubby branched out a bit and threw some veggies and sausage links on the grill…and it was AMAZING!! Sausage? The Hubby and I love Costco. We get everything from meat…

Summer is definitely here in SE Texas and summer hasn’t even officially started yet. Along with a large part of the country out temps are in the 90’s and feel like the 100’s. When the weather is like this the last thing I want to do is have the oven on for a terribly long time and have a ton of pots and pans to clean up after. This dish is perfect as you cook everything in one pot. Prep & clean-up are super easy, perfect for summer cooking. People make claims that their dishes are one pot wonders and then it turns into one pot, a skillet & few cutting…
