For years, the perfect, fluffy, buttery rice of my dreams eluded me. I eventually gave up on stovetop rice and bought a rice cooker (or two). One of them cooked rice, and that’s just about the best thing I could say about it. The other one did a pretty good job, but it just took […]

Lately I’ve noticed that I’m craving Pho all the time. It’s so delicious and healthy, it’s no wonder that I wish I could eat it every day. This isn’t a true Pho, but it comes together ridiculously quickly and certainly satisfies that craving. The veggies in this soup are totally based on preference. I […]

These little spaghetti cups make the perfect game day snack! They’re also perfect for kids (or anyone that loves to eat with their hands). They’re fun, tasty, and magically hold together without all the cheese that the traditional recipes call for! I honestly wasn’t sure that this recipe would work when I decided to make […]

I love cooking and baking for my loved ones, and that includes all the furry friends I have in my life! It’s so fun to make these dog treats, mostly because of how much their cute puppy eyes light up when I do. They love these delicious treats, and I love knowing that there’s no […]

Have you ever had homemade enchilada sauce? Oh my goodness, if you haven’t, your tastebuds will be thrilled when you try this. Once you have homemade enchilada sauce, you’ll never be able to go back to canned sauce (trust me, I’ve tried, and it’s impossible). This sauce is so easy, and comes together in a […]

Whenever I stumble across that combination, it automatically becomes a staple dish in my house. I love having something I can whip together in a flash to elevate a meal I’m preparing, and this dish definitely […]

I love using my crockpot on busy days so that I don’t have to worry about making dinner later. Since I’m using it to make life easier, I definitely prefer recipes that don’t require any sauteing before putting everything into the slow cooker to cook. That’s what I love about this recipe. It’s delicious, filling, […]

Did you know that broccoli stems have the same delicious flavor as the florets? It’s actually my favorite part of the vegetable. I always used to munch on the stems while cooking when I was using the florets in a recipe. It dawned on me that since they’re so yummy, and since I love being […]
