A day off on Monday is a great day to make some comfort food for supper – like these Meatloaf Meatballs with Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes. There’s no rushing home from work, no piano lessons to get to, no schedule at all, in fact, because it’s spring break. What a good day to make some […] Read more…
Turkey Sausage Slab Pizza Pie
I hope you’re sitting down. Because I’m quite sure you have to be shocked — perhaps even gobsmacked — that I actually posted a Turkey Tuesday recipe for Turkey Sausage Slab Pizza Pie.

Most Popular Posts of 2018
I’m not super big into end-of-year recaps, which I may have mentioned before. I find them to be a bit tedious – especially when all I want to do is think ahead to the next year. What’s done is done, right? But … it is fun to look back at my most popular blog posts […] Read more…

This is also a great option for your busy weeknights … a one-pot wonder […] Read more…
Gingersnap Chocolate Chip Cookies
Apparently there has been a huge run on molasses (hello, holiday bakers!) in my town because up until today, all three grocery stores have been out of molasses for nearly the entire month of December. Finally Target restocked (insert praise hands!) and I could make my mom’s recipe for Gingersnap Chocolate Chip Cookies. I don’t […] Read more…
Philly Cheesesteak Turkey Meatballs
I’m always game to try a new meatball recipe. I can’t help it – I just love meatballs. (Plus a Philly Cheesesteak Meatball version? I’m in!) I’ll go to an Italian restaurant and order spaghetti and – wait for it – meatballs. Teacher Man just shakes his head and looks at me funny. He thinks […] Read more…
Cranberry Cinnamon Sweet Buns with Orange Glaze
I’ve been following North Wild Kitchen’s blog and Facebook page for a short time and I’m enamored with her life in Norway, her gorgeous photos, and all those recipes! That’s why I adapted one of her recipes and made Cranberry Cinnamon Sweet Buns with Orange Glaze. Bakers are whipping up all the Christmas cookies this […] Read more…
