• Quick Ground Beef Stroganoff

    Today I’m back with another quick week night meal. Yes, you can have a delicious homemade meal, with real ingredients, in a short amount of time. You start with simmering lean ground beef in a light and creamy sauce and then serve it over hot egg noodles.     I know some people serve it over mashed potatoes, rice, or even quinoa, but we are egg noodles all the way at our house. And also, why do egg noodles come in different sizes?! I never know what size to buy! I usually just stick with medium since that seems like a good middle ground. Ok, please excuse my bad pun.…

  • Slow Cooker Crispy Lime Chicken Tacos

      For the longest time, I was anti-slow cooker. But over the last 2 years I have done a complete 180 on my feeling about the slow cooker and I’m a total fan girl now!

  • Honey Mustard and Rosemary Grilled Chicken

    Ya’ll it’s finally warm enough that grilling out has become a weekly occurrence. Actually, I’m enjoying the late afternoon sunshine from my back porch as I write this post!   Today we are talking about a fabulous and full of flavor grilled chicken recipe. It’s delicious on its own when served with veggies and rice or pasta. But it’s equally delicious when pilled on top of a big green salad and I might have used it as a topping on my pizza. And the last time I made this I might have snuck a few more bites as I was cleaning up the kitchen after dinner. It’s that good! I…

  • Beef and Broccoli

    I’ve been on the search for a great Beef and Broccoli recipe for a couple years. I’ve tried several slow cooker versions and the best way to describe them was mushy, bland, and overall not impressive. Then I came across this recipe that is made in a skillet in less than 30 minutes and it quickly became one of my husband’s favorite recipes! Boom! Don’t Y’all love it when that happens.   This recipe starts out with marinating flank steak in soy sauce, there is probably some science behind marinating beef in soy sauce, but I don’t know what it is. Because flank steak can be tough, make sure you…
