Great alternative to potato salad or coleslaw.

I am not sure what it is about macaroni, but I always think of it as something to be served hot and with plenty of cheese.

This recipe has definitely caused me to stop and reconsider. With a variety of color and texture, it is full of all the things I love in a potato salad, without having all the hassle of boiling, peeling and cutting up the spuds.

When you have a bunch of kids you end up going to a lot of picnics and get-to-gethers. Sometimes the thought of making one more dish can be overwhelming. It is nice to have a handful of recipes that are easy to make and most likely you already have the basic ingredients on hand. This is one of those recipes.

Plus, if you have put your families’ favorite ingredients in this macaroni salad, chances are your kids will make sure they get a scoop on their plates before running off for their next activity.

A huge shout out to Jaclyn and Cooking Classy for this fun summer salad.

Quick Tip: This is a great way to utilize a few of your leftovers such as marinated artichoke hearts or sliced olives.

If I Had A Nickle For Every time I Shared This Casserole Recipe…

I love big family get-togethers! Whether it is a holiday, reunion, or just a time when we can all gather round the dining table there is nothing as hearty and nostalgic as a big pan of creamy scalloped potatoes. I usually have to make extra because we love them as left-overs!

The fact that you can make a huge dish is a relief because this is one our kids’ favorite way to fix potatoes and when you can buy a big bag of spuds fairly cheap, this also is budget friendly.

While scalloped potato dishes are not super fancy, there are a few basics that can set them apart from being boring to brilliantly prepared even for those just getting started in the kitchen.

The secret is in details.

This classic side dish that has been a standard next to honey glazed hams for as long as I can remember. Adding garlic and several varieties of cheese make this a perfect side dish for any occasion.

Quick Tip: Since this is a dish that takes a while to bake, make sure to put this in the oven in plenty of time. Let is set for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Voted One Of The Best Potluck Recipes Ever

I was so glad when I came across this recipe on the internet. I almost forgot about it.

I remember when we were visiting our friends, Bob and Ginger, and she fixed it for us along with a garden fresh salad and loaf of garlicky french bread. In fact, our kids even asked for a second helping.

Spaghetti is such a dinnertime staple, but being able to pop it in the oven and forget about it was something that really caught my attention, because instead of boiling spaghetti noodles as everyone was arriving, Ginger had the pan of piping hot goodness already in the oven so it was really easy to serve up hot after everyone gathered around the dining room table.

Getting together with Bob and Ginger felt more like we were with family instead of friends. And now, even though we live two time zones apart, I still think of them everytime I make this yummy meal!

This is one of those recipes that is easy to freeze for later, or to take to someone who may need a hot homecooked meal.

Quick Tip: It can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for a day or so before baking!

I am a such a pushover for anything with lemon in it

When our neighbor’s lemon tree start to show bright yellow dots against the green leafy branches I get ready to apron up and try a few new recipes. They have several citrus trees that are full of fruit, but they can’t use all of it and are happy to have me come and pick the tree ripened fruit anytime I want.

When I saw a recipe for Lemon Magic Cake, let me just be honest, my mouth began to water!

What really captured my attention was that this recipe has only once batter that bakes into three separate layers! Super cute, so easy, and you don’t need to spill the beans on how easy this recipe is.

Simply magical.

Don’t Let This Simple Muffin Fool You.

Perfect for those soccer mornings where just getting out of the house with everyone’s gear in hand is worthy of a trophy..or at least a sticker!

Recently I combined two of my favorite muffin recipes and doubled it. I ended up with a huge mountain of muffins, and my family couldn’t be happier. As a mom of 6 very busy and hungry kids, I know what I am talking about when it comes to feeding your family hearty and healthy food.

I put a dozen in each gallon sized zip-lock bags and put most of them in the freezer so I could just take a few out at a time. Because I substituted most of the oil for applesauce, these muffins are moist without being heavy.

 “As much as I love the convenience of buying cardboard trays of muffins from the large discount warehouses. I know it is so much cheaper, and healthier when I make them from scratch.”

Helpful Hint: If you don’t have buttermilk on hand you can make your own! Who knew?  Pour 1 cup of milk into a bowl. Stir in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes. There you go!

What a Keeper!

A few weeks ago we went over to our son and daughter-in-law’s home for dinner. Aarika made snickerdoodles for dessert. The plate of freshly baked cookies, still warm from the oven were perfect, just like she is.
I forgot how much I enjoyed the simple cookie rolled in sugar and cinnamon until I bit into one. The buttery cookie was baked just right and was perfect with a glass of cold milk. Talk about childhood flashback!
Thanks Aarika for passing along Shelly’s info to Cookies and Cups so I could make a big batch of these as well! I can’t wait to bake a batch of these.

Big, Bold, Flavor, California Style!

When our family moved from California to Minnesota, I was in for a bit of a shock the first time we went to a large potluck, the menu was a bit different from what we ate in California, starting with the vegetables.

Salads could easily range from finely chopped iceberg lettuce to Jell-O with fruit cocktail in it, and a dollop of Cool Whip on top. They thought that a salad could be the main course was a bit foreign. Uff Da!

I am a huge fan of this salad, and this one has it all! In When the weather starts to get a little warm, and the local farmer’s market is full of fresh produce it is time to put away the soup pot. I have to admit, as much as I know having a salad with dinner is a good idea; sometimes I get a little bored with the same veggies tossed together in a bowl.

This is one of my go-to recipes that I never get tired of. Plus, I love the fact that I can cook up a bunch of chicken in the honey mustard glaze and set aside some in a freezer bag so we can enjoy another amazing salad by just popping it in the microwave and putting it over the rest of the garden goodness.

Quick Tip: If you are going to take a salad to a party or potluck but not serve it right away consider taking everything you need to combine later. So much less mess and crisp.
