I had no idea what to call this recipe. This is the best I could come up with. I used crescent rolls and breakfast link sausage to make a pigs in a blanket more breakfast-y. To make it even MORE breakfast-y, I added fluffy scrambled eggs and melted cheddar cheese. These little bites are delicious.… Continue reading Fully Loaded Pigs in a Blanket

Bacon Cheeseburger Mac Skillet
I'd love to meet someone who has never made Hamburger Helper. When I was in college, Hamburger Helper was my dinner savior. I made so much of it that I think I made myself sick. My favorite, of course, was the stroganoff (both pasta AND potatoes) and cheeseburger mac. That last one is also my… Continue reading Bacon Cheeseburger Mac Skillet
Zucchini Crescent Pie
This recipe comes from a decades-old church cookbook aptly titled 'Look n Cook'. A ladies group at a Methodist church compiled the recipes in the 1960's, but I didn't find the book until this summer. There are no pictures, no special introductions and no information about the history of the church. It simply contains basic… Continue reading Zucchini Crescent Pie
Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches
There are a lot of regional sandwiches I've never had before. I've never tried beef on weck, a classic hoagie, and I hate to admit it---I've never tried an Italian beef sandwich. Pretty much any sandwich hailing from the upper midwest or northeast I've never tried. I'd like to change that, though. My husband and… Continue reading Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches
Green Chile Sausage Quiche
This isn't your normal, frou-frou quiche. The French would be aghast at the sight of this. Brunch fanatics would probably talk about this quiche behind its back. This is a tried-and-true Southwestern/Texan quiche. With the use of green chiles and sausage, you get a spicy punch every time you take a bite. Quiche is usually… Continue reading Green Chile Sausage Quiche
Seven Layer Dip Burrito
Taco Bell is the OG when it comes to fast vegetarian food. That's all thanks to BEANS. When vegetarians in the 90's and early 00's needed a quick fix, Taco Bell was the place to go. You can order just about anything with beans instead of meat: tacos, burritos, quesadillas, etc. Now, are the beans… Continue reading Seven Layer Dip Burrito
Easy Stromboli
To say I'm addicted to Italian food is an understatement. I probably make more Italian dishes than anything else. Making a pasta entree is just second nature at this point. My husband and I love to make "homemade" pizzas. We utilize shortcuts for those, though, like using pre-made dough and sauce. As much as I… Continue reading Easy Stromboli
Mini Tuna Melts
Tuna does not photograph very well. I've been taking pictures of food and blogging about it for 10 years now, and I've found a few things I like to steer clear of because of how ugly it turns out in pictures. Meatloaf is a big one. I've got so many delicious meatloaf recipes I want… Continue reading Mini Tuna Melts
Sausage Fettuccine
Everything is dead or dying in Oklahoma. Oklahoma's summer this year has been far too hot. We had a long spate of 100-degree days and went weeks without rain. Because of that, everything from the grass to the trees is dying. It's been hard to keep my first-year garden alive. I surrendered early to the… Continue reading Sausage Fettuccine
Cheeseburger Bake
I'm an avid collector of cookbooks. I'm not picky, either. I'll collect old cookbooks, new cookbooks, cookbooks from recognizable chefs, obscure cookbooks, church cookbooks, cookbooks that are falling apart...you name it. My FAVORITE cookbooks to find in the wild, though, are Gooseberry Patch cookbooks. Gooseberry Patch started in the late 80's as a mail-in recipe… Continue reading Cheeseburger Bake
