There’s nothing quite like a juicy burger….especially if you use fresh, pasture-raised beef. Homemade burgers are one of my summertime go-to meals because they are really simple to make. I like that I can make them on the stovetop or grill them. And I have this great countertop grill that I love to use! I’ve been wanting to experiment with some different flavors in my burgers. I wanted…
Some recipes just feel like home. This meatloaf recipe does for me. My mother made it regularly as I was growing up. And it’s funny that when I was a kid, it wasn’t my favorite meal. I just didn’t appreciate it much. I think I would rather have had pizza, hamburgers, and hot dogs. But although I didn’t appreciate it so much when I was a child, I…
Who doesn’t love sloppy joes? They make a perfect casual meal or can be a great simple meal for family gatherings, or when you have a group get-together. But most recipes for sloppy joes really can feed a family…or small army! My mom used to make them for casual dinners as well as for when we had family and friends come together for laid-back events. Of course, back…
I love quick and easy and during the year I love to make a meal of soup and salad. I’ve wanted to make this Tuscan sausage soup for two for a while because it is not only simple to make but really tasty as well. Since I became single again myself I have really wanted to create a whole lot more recipes that are perfect for one or…
Last night I wanted to fix something from south of the border. But at the same time, I wanted to try something different. So the filling for these black bean and ground beef tacos was perfect…and different than just a ground beef taco filling. Adding the beans also added some great fiber as well as stretching the meal a bit! The result was absolutely fabulous! These black bean…
I am a big fan of homemade chicken salad. So when I grilled out the other night, I grilled an extra chicken breast for me to use for my chicken salad recipe. I simply didn’t want to use canned chicken because there are some additives. I just don’t want to consume them! And homemade chicken salad just tastes so much better when you use freshly grilled chicken instead…
I am all for comfort foods. In fact, there are some nights when you just need food that is comforting to your spirit. But being who I am, I am all for comfort foods that are really easy to make too. I don’t want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. There are just too many other things that need to be done! This slow cooker…
I am always on the hunt for interesting side dishes. Especially side dishes that I can pair with recipes like my salsa chicken. But that recipe can be a little more challenging to pair with a nice side dish. So I experimented with a few different side dishes. Most didn’t work well. But I did create this little Mexican Corn and Bean Casserole that did! It has easy…
Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili (Recipes for Two)
April 5, 2016As we move along into the warmer months, I really like to use slow cooker meals. Frankly, I don’t want to heat up my kitchen turning on my oven! That would make the heat of a South Carolina summer even more unbearable! Of course, there is the added benefit of having a meal that is easy to put together, which is always a plus. Since I ascribe to…
