Carmel Apple Bread Pudding

Who doesn't love a good slice of bread pudding? This recipe just sounded too delicious not to make & it was beyond delicious!! With the little bits of apple here and there and the carmel on top, it was almost like eating a candy apple with gooey goodness all around it!

Granny's Beef Veggie Soup



My husband requested this a few weeks ago and I couldn't deny it to him. I did do it different, since she did it on the stove in a pot, I just tossed all of mine in a crock pot. It is very delicious. I got the recipe from his mother, since his Granny has since passed. All it was meat, potatoes, veggies, and tomato juice. He didn't know that I doctored it up some since it seemed a little too dull for me. He said it tasted just like Granny's so I did something right!!

Baked Mac & Cheese

I found a recipe similar to this on Just-A-Pinch. This is my revamped version of it & is so good. I love the bread crumbs so mine has quite a bit more on it. This is so rich and so cheesy! This was all I had for dinner tonight!

Peanut Butter Oats & Chocolate Chip Cookies

My brother-in-law lived w/ us a few years back and one day he brought home these cookies from a friends house. I tried one and ended up eating all of them before he got any! I wanted the recipe but never got it. Come to find out one of my friends worked at the school w/ the woman who made these and I BEGGED her to get the recipe for me! I had forgotten that I had it till now when I was flipping through a cooking magazine and saw some oatmeal cookies. I rummaged through my little pieces of paper and found it. I realized I had everything on hand, so here they are. Now I'm trying to stop myself from eating all of them!

Cranberry Relish


This is another one of my mother-in-laws recipes. I was craving this so bad a few months after I first had it, but had no clue what it was since she only makes it for the holidays. I now have the recipe and it has become a part of our holidays as well!

Chicken Noodle Soup


MMMMMM...was this a big hit, even our 8 month old had some (of course it was pureed) and liked it! It's thick but not too thick, but not thin like the canned kind. Full of chicken flavor! Very warming and comforting!

Lazy Lasagna

I love this simple dish. It may not look like regular lasagna, but it taste just as great! I add in some hamburger since I don't think it's complete w/o it, however you can leave it out if you like. I double this so I can have lots of left overs. I actually think it is much better the second day!

Twice Baked Mashed Potatoes

This was the winner of last weeks poll and I was really excited to try it! I LOVE mashed potatoes they always have a comfort feeling for me. These are LOADED w/ flavor! I don't think I'll ever make boring regular mashed taters again! However, I don't think I made enough potatoes, once I added in the sour cream they became almost soupy. I would recommend adding the sour cream in a little at a time to make sure it doesn't get this way. Even soupy looking they tasted amazing!


Blueberry Upside Down Cake

This was you, the viewers request on my poll last week. I found this recipe in a Taste of Home magazine. It made the whole house smell like a blueberry muffin to me or a blueberry pancake if you ask my husband! It is amazingly good! I made sure I loaded the pan w/ as many blueberries as I could since I LOVE cooked blueberries. Great summer time treat!
