Oh Em Gee, These Are Incredible!

I’m so excited about today’s recipe that I almost can’t sit still! I’m crazy about potatoes, any way you make’m, so I have collected a vast amount of potato recipes over the years. I didn’t think it was possible to top them – you see, I figured I had already found and perfected the best of the best recipes out there. It turns out I was wrong, and I’m actually really happy about that!

I came across this caramelized roasted potatoes recipe on Vegan Food Lover’s channel, and it is TO DIE FOR. Honestly, I could eat these potatoes seven days a week and twice on Sunday! Vegan Food Lover really has found a heavenly combination of ingredients for that marinade – and I didn’t even realize you could marinate potatoes!

I highly recommend checking out all of his recipes; that’s what I’ve been doing for the past couple of days, and I’ve found quite a few favorites already. Let’s just say I’m going to pamper my family with these incredible dishes for the next couple of weeks, and you all should do the same!

Quick Tip: Even though these are basically a side dish, I wouldn’t mind having them as the main course, with some tasty dip!

Have You Tried These Yet? You REALLY Should

My mother-in-law makes killer pork chops. There really is no other way of describing them; they are the most delicious, mouthwatering and addictive pork chops I’ve ever tasted. I was surprised when my husband told me he has actually gotten a little tired of them – he said they used to have them for dinner every single Sunday, and “enough is enough”.

So, even though I think her pork chop recipe is amazing, I had to find a different one if I was ever going to cook pork chops for my own family. And I gotta tell you, these Southern fried pork chops from Patrick Barton are pretty darn awesome, too! If you ask my husband, he will tell you these are the best on the planet. I kind of agree with him… but please don’t tell my mother-in-law I said that!

Patrick has come up with the perfect method to create that scrumptious crust. I highly recommend having a look at all of his recipes – there are plenty and they are all delicious! Thanks, Patrick, for sharing them with all of us!

I Wouldn’t Mind Eating This For Two Weeks In A Row!

Being the work-from-home parent in our house, I’ve decided it’s my job to plan the menu and take care of all the dinner preparations.

My husband would be more than happy to take turns, but since I personally hate grocery shopping I’m just letting him do that, instead! To me, that’s a big win! To be honest with you, ever since I got my first slow cooker, making dinner has been a breeze. I didn’t think meals would turn out as delicious in the crockpot but I was so wrong! Some of them turn out even better than their stovetop counterparts, and I guess that’s because they get to slowly cook to perfection, for hours.

This recipe from the Slow Cooker/Crockpot YouTube channel is one of my favorites. I had made Salisbury steak a hundred times before, but never in the crockpot. Once I tried this recipe, there was no going back. I’m so glad I came across their video, you should check it out, too!

Everyone Should Know How To Make This Meal!

Do you ever get the feeling you’ve made ALL your recipes a thousand times already, and you just don’t want to make any of them, ever again?

Well, I do, and apparently my kids feel the same way, too… I have taught them to be grateful and appreciate everything they have, including a warm meal every day. But I totally understand that they roll their eyes, when they find out we’re having some form of chicken and noodles for the third time in two weeks. So lately, I’ve been on the lookout for easy weeknight dinner recipes that would be both, healthy and inexpensive.

This traditional carrot rice loaf recipe from Lois’ wonderful blog Stuffed At The Gill’s is pretty awesome! This would make a tasty side dish but it is rich in protein, so you could just as well serve it as the main dish, too.

I have been looking for healthier dinner ideas that would get me back on track, after all this holiday meal craziness. This carrot rice loaf is something I plan on making very often, over the next few weeks! Big thanks to Lois for sharing this!

I Like To Spell It D-i-v-i-n-e

Struggling with two very picky eaters I’ve realized you can never have too many delicious and easy chicken recipes. For some reason it seems that these “refined taste buds” accept chicken better than they do any other kind of meat. Or maybe it’s just that way in my family – what kind of dishes and ingredients work best for your picky eaters?

Although my kids could eat the same chicken dishes over and over again, it gets a little boring for mommy and daddy at times. That’s why I’m always searching for meals I haven’t tried before. I came across this easy chicken divan over at AllRecipes and I thought it looked really inviting.

It was so awesome! My kids wanted to have seconds, which is a big deal! Somehow I had this idea that all chicken divan recipes would be really complicated of time-consuming but apparently it isn’t true. This was really quick to prepare, probably around 15 minutes, and it makes a great meal for the whole family.

Here’s Our Secret To The Perfect Holiday Mini-Dessert!

These cute little holiday treats are as easy to make as they come. With fresh strawberries, and a little dash of creamy goodness, they’re nutritious and delicious!

Not to mention the brownies, which makes these perfect for all chocoholics, too! This recipe uses a store-bought brownie mix (which makes this even easier) but feel free to make your favorite homemade brownie batter instead, if preferred. Buy some pretty little boxes, and give them away as gifts, for the holiday. Whatever you do, they’re cute, creative, and a crowd pleaser!

I’m so glad I came across Jen’s recipe and I’m pretty sure we are going to be making these Santa hat brownies every year, from now on. The kids were crazy about the test batch I made! I can’t wait to give these as gifts to our neighbors and friends over the holidays.

This Classic Recipe Never Goes Out Of Style!

Hi everyone! I hope you’re all doing great and having fun trying out new recipes! I sure am, and that’s why I decided to introduce you to my latest favorite.

Just recently I came across this wonderful crab cake recipe and I just knew they were going to be a hit! It took me a few days to find the time to make these, and I swear just looking at that picture and thinking about making them, made my mouth water.

I think my husband got a little tired of me going on and on about these crab cakes because one day he said; “Honey, today I’m taking care of everything for you. I’ll do the laundry, walk the dogs and go grocery shopping – so could you please just make those crab cakes before you’ll go crazy?” Haha, bless him! He really did do all those things for me, so I had plenty of time to try making these. Not that I really needed that much extra time for these – 25 minutes was all I needed!
