Cooking Tips for Recipe Friday

It’s Recipe Friday and I can’t think of a recipe I want to share. Maybe it’s because we’ve been having the same old thing lately and I haven’t come up with anything that’s really new. Or maybe it’s because my recent posts with pictures have...

Fajita Tacos for Recipe Friday

Growing up, tacos were not one of my favorite meals. There are so many varieties of tacos, though, so just because you don’t like one taco doesn’t mean you won’t like another. Over the years I’ve developed this taco recipe, and now it’s the only...

Lasagna for Recipe Friday

I’ve been thinking about doing this recipe for Recipe Friday for quite a while, and since I made some last week and remembered to take pictures I decided it is finally time. This is my son’s all-time favorite food; it’s what he always wants on...

Toad in the Holes for Recipe Friday

This recipe is what we had for breakfast on Christmas morning. We talked about having French Toast, but we all agreed we had eaten enough sweets lately and didn’t really want something sweet for breakfast; especially since there was pecan pie for dessert later. I...

Baked Chicken Strips for Recipe Friday

Usually when I make chicken strips I pan fry them. But that requires closely monitoring the frying process and if I am distracted by other things can lead to burned chicken strips. My family will still eat them slightly burned, but last night I didn’t...

Shepherd’s Pot Pie for Recipe Friday

I don’t know about you, but I absolutely LOVE leftovers! Just kidding. But they can be pretty good when I can disguise them so that you can’t tell you had them the night before. That is how this recipe came about. The first time I made...
