{Pin It to your favorite recipes board!} I’m not sure what took me so long to figure these out. I recently chatted with my friend in OH who made the “Polynesian Buffet” for us (now, years ago…where does the time go!). After our chat, I was remembering that dinner and decided that we needed to do [...]

Thanks so much to Kristi from Mom’s Confessions for sharing this great recipe with us. I’m still on “leave,” enjoying my time with new baby and settling into life as a family of 6. I’m so grateful for the help and support of my fellow bloggers during this time! ~Erin With cold weather months upon [...]
This recipe is fast and easy to prepare, especially if you use leftovers from your holiday dinners. Shepherd’s Pie is often made using ground beef, but it is an especially delicious way to use up leftover roast. You can also use leftover vegetables and top it with leftover mashed potatoes if you have them on [...]
I’m on a mission here y’all. Our family loves chili…for several reasons. It’s one of the few “soups” that I know that all the boys will eat (even if one still picks around any beans), it’s generally very inexpensive to make, and it makes us all feel warm and cozy inside. So that brings me [...]
It’s always risky experimenting with recipes when you have guests over for dinner. But it’s also good…in that you get great feedback. Good or bad. And this chili…only good feedback We had our family join us for dinner last weekend and this is what I made. I can’t not purchase butternut squash at the store [...]
So this is my first “set” of meatballs since moving to Texas. And I thought making BBQ style ones would only be appropriate…seeing as how there is a BBQ joint on every second corner around here. (At least it seems that way!) I had some dinner rolls I’d picked up “on special” and some meat [...]

I have been making different types of vegetable lasagnas all summer. After the last one, my oldest son said, “your veggie lasagnas are awesome, but I’m wondering when you are going to make a standard lasagna”. Obviously making a “standard lasagna” shot to the top of my to-do list! But our life has been crazy [...]
When life is busy it is even more important for my family to find time to eat together. There is something so relaxing about sitting around the table together chatting, laughing, and reconnecting. However, it can be rough to throw together a family dinner when we walk in the door a few minutes before dinner [...]
The kitchen is not my favorite place to spend time, but occasionally it’s necessary to spend some time in it preparing meals for my family. When this is the case, my goal is {usually} to be in and out of the kitchen as quickly as possible without spending a ton of money on convenience foods. [...]
{Imagine a countertop with 10 gallon size baggies. If you’re curious, they look like this.} In order to prepare for all the craziness that will become my life in the next 4 weeks, I’ve decided to take the stress out of at least 1 area of my life…dinner. Between the contracts, earnest money checks, meetings, [...]
