This simple marinara sauce takes only 20 minutes to make, yet is rich and tastes like it’s been simmering all day.  Tomato paste gives this a depth of flavor that is delicious. A few months ago I bought a Vitamix on sale for $249.  I am kicking myself for not buying one sooner – it’s amazing.  Costco sometimes has Vitamix’s on sale too. What is...

This blueberry cobbler was requested by so many people when I asked for blueberry recipes that you wanted lightened up.  So happy because this is delicious! What is a cobbler? Cobblers can vary depending on where you live.  Some cobblers have a biscuit like topping, but I made my cobbler with a cake like base.  Actually I used an old pancake recipe on my blog...

These chicken souvlaki pita sandwiches are my new favorite sandwich.  One reason is that after marinating the chicken, this comes together in less than 15 minutes! Is this a traditional chicken souvlaki?  I am not sure, all I know is that it’s delicious. The star of the show?  The pan fried lemon! Once cooked for about 2-3 minutes per side, the lemon rind becomes super...

Am I the only one that can never cook the right amount of pasta without having five cups leftover?  That’s how this goat cheese pasta with meatballs came about. I am the leftover queen!  A quick search in my fridge and I found an unopened goat cheese.  Then I pulled out the leftover pasta, some flour, and almond milk. One way I save on groceries...

PoppySeed Pancakes with Lemon Curd Last night in our cooking class we made poppy seed pancakes with lemon curd.  It changed Hannah’s life.  Love how Weight Watchers friendly these recipes are! She LOVES lemon curd and had no idea that you could make it in the microwave in two minutes.  Pretty sure she’ll be making this every week.   My friend Vic is the person I...

My Grammy used to make the best zucchini bread.  I ask my Aunt Martha for the recipe. Guess what?  The original recipe calls for two cups of sugar AND 3/4 cup vegetable oil.  No wonder it was so good! How do you lighten up zucchini bread? Two things lightened up this zucchini bread recipe.  First, I reduced the oil to 1/4 cup and secondly, I...

Raising Cane’s Sauce Recipe Not only am I giving you a delicious copycat of Raising Cane’s Sauce Recipe, I am also giving you the best chicken nuggets I’ve ever made. You’re Welcome! Raising Cane’s Sauce Recipe Raising Cane’s is a chain restaurant, and until last weekend, I’ve never tried it.  They are building one in the town next to me that hopes to be open...

These banana bacon pancakes are next level.  They are slightly sweet and have a hint of saltiness from the bacon.  So good! Buttermilk pancakes are the best, but what happens if you don’t have any on hand? How do you make buttermilk if you don’t have any? You simply have to add a tablespoon of any type of vinegar to one cup of any type...

I love all things buffalo! My timehop reminded me that I made these buffalo chicken bombs a year ago, but there was no recipe. Gah! So I recreated it this morning with leftover grilled chicken from our cooking class earlier this week.  Side note, you can also cook this buffalo chicken in the air fryer at 370 for 8-10 minutes. This is so simple and...

Asian Zing Chicken Nuggets The Asian Zing sauce is one of my favorite sauces at Buffalo Wild Wings.  My Asian Zing Chicken Nuggets will taste as if you are sitting at the restaurant! My only complaint is that sometimes the sauce was a bit too sweet for me – and then I would add for buffalo sauce to balance it – ha! Copycat Asian Zing...
