    Taco Baked Potato (Recipes for Two)

    August 25, 2015 - By 

    Sometimes recipes that come from desperation can end up being brilliant…and we won’t talk about the other times! Luckily, this taco baked potato recipe was one of the brilliant ones! I am really focused on simple, quick meals that are really tasty, but different than my usual rotation of meals. Unfortunately, those can get a little boring, which is not good. I am also working to eat far fewer grains (which is much better for my tummy), and still, be able to enjoy some of the flavors that I really love. This recipe was created because I just didn’t know…

    Slow Cooker Beef and Butternut Squash Stew (Recipes for Two)

    March 9, 2015 - By 

    Have you ever made a butternut squash stew? This was my first time, and I was happy that I did! In fact, I only tried butternut squash for the first time a couple of years ago. We never really used any of the winter squash when I was growing up, so I guess I’d never really thought about using them. I really like butternut and acorn squash, though. I have to admit that I haven’t really been using butternut squash a lot in recipes, but I have wanted to include it more. Being single, butternut squash can go a long…

    Shepherd’s Pie (Recipes for Two)

    January 14, 2015 - By 

    I’m always looking for dishes that are really simple to make, but healthy and yummy. I had never tried Shepherd’s Pie before, but it looked really yummy, so I looked at several different recipes, and created mine from there. This is a great cold-weather dish, that is full of great veggies. Shepherd’s Pie is a classic British casserole that combines ground beef or lamb, mixed vegetables, and mashed potatoes. It does have a little bit longer prep time than what I normally prefer, but it is definitely worth a little extra work.  One thing that you can do to speed…

    Ground Beef and Brown Rice Casserole

    January 7, 2015 - By 

    I am so glad to find some ways to use brown rice in this ground beef and brown rice casserole. This dish seems simple, but it’s rich in taste! I know that some people aren’t fond of casseroles, but I don’t belong to that club. I mean, what is better than a whole meal in one casserole dish? Of course, I was raised on a collection of different casseroles, so I think I was taught to appreciate the art of casseroling. These days, I like to give casseroles a makeover, converting them from meals filled with processed foods to luscious,…

    Simple Cheeseburger Frittata

    December 22, 2014 - By 

    I really like this simple cheeseburger frittata recipe a lot! I used to make a version of this many years ago but had actually forgotten about it until recently when I stumbled across an old collection of recipes that I used to make about 10 years ago. It is simple to make and has a lot of flavors and I often use it as a dinner idea, although it is wonderful for breakfast or lunch too! Pair it with a small bowl of fresh fruit and you have a nourishing, fantastic meal! This version will feed two generously. It is…

    Smoked Sausage and White Bean Soup (Recipes for Two)

    February 3, 2014 - By 

    I made an interesting discovery a couple of weeks ago…I really enjoy broth-based soups. So I am using that to my advantage and have been creating different soups using simple ingredients. I literally just sit on my couch at night and think about what ingredients will go well together, and voila…this smoked sausage and white bean soup was created. Now, I’m funny when it comes to soup. I only really like to eat soup when it’s cooler outside. I guess that my sensitivity makes the soup a little too warm for me when it’s hot outside. So I try to…
