I don't like most sandwiches.I guess I am strange that way, but I am just not a big fan. I do love a grilled or hot sandwich though, and when we camp, I love to make my version of a Croque Monsieur. Last night we made these for dinner at home, but I do it the... Continue Reading →
Soup-er soup! Zucchini-Basil Soup
I love soup. Especially in the winter, but every so often I get a hankering for soup in summer too! My husband is good with whatever I make, but my son has not been overly keen on soup for some reason. I was blessed with a child who is one of the least picky eaters ever,... Continue Reading →
Recipe/How To: Beef Jerky
I make beef Jerky a few times a year. We love it while camping and we love it for skiing. There is just something about it that gives you a little extra energy. I tell myself, if I can make it to the top, my Jerky prize is waiting! It is silly, but the salt... Continue Reading →
Recipe: Pasta Salad version 2!
I love a good pasta salad and usually make them much bigger than we need for one sitting, because they keep in the fridge well, are filling, and often taste even better for the second meal.

Recipe: my version of Pigs (or chickens) in a blanket!
On our Yellowstone trip, I was realizing I had a few things in the fridge that we needed to eat up or toss pretty quick. I had some Aidells Chicken Apple Sausages, some Immaculate Baking Buttermilk Biscuits, and several veggies that were in need of consuming. I decided to get a little creative and mix...

Recipe: Pasta with avocado, sweet grape tomatoes, mozzarella, & bacon

Recipe: East meets West Cold Noodle Salad
This is an easy recipe I make all of the time at home, thanks to my sister-in-law for introducing me to the idea! I am going to be taking it on the road with me this summer on our camping trips. Before I leave home I am going to make the dressing in a jam... Continue Reading →
Recipe: Apple Gorgonzola Proscuitto Pizza
We got back almost 2 weeks ago from a camping trip, and I got knocked down with a really nasty stomach bug. The bright side of that down time was that I came up with a few new blog posts! I am getting started with this one. I created this recipe here at home, and... Continue Reading →
