I remember the very first time I tried cheddar bacon soup.

I had spent the day at a fun little place called Wannado City.  It was a fun stop for kids where you would spend the day going to different locations (it was set up like a city) learning about different careers and trying out being a doctor, or employee at a supermarket, or a model or a baker.  The options were endless and it was so much fun to head over there and spend the day pretending I was a grown up with my own career.

After an eventful day in Wannado City where I had decided I wanted to become a dentist (haha, yeah right!) I was starved.  Right outside of the area where this kids place was, there was an Applebee’s. We had not been there in ages and it was a chilly day so my grandma suggested go inside and order soup.  The only option on the menu that day was cheddar bacon.  I thought it was weird to have a soup that was only cheese (what was I thinking? That’s awesome!) but boy was I surprised when I received it.  To this day it is still my favorite soup.

People Will Beg You For The Recipe!

There is just nothing better than bacon, potatoes and cheese… am I right? Ha, well at least that’s how I feel when I’m in the mood for comfort food. And comfort food this is! De-lish.

I think this recipe makes a wonderful side dish for your holiday table as well as a great weeknight meal. You can eat these cheesy, bacon potatoes as an entree because, why not? Whenever I serve the dish as an entree I’ll include steamed veggies and crusty homemade bread.

When it comes to holiday food I like to offer a variety of options. I really do go all out and these cheesy, bacon potatoes are a welcome addition to the table. I mean, really, who doesn’t like cheese and bacon? And if you love cheese and bacon as much as I do then you will really lose your mind when those two items are added to a hot dish of yummy potatoes. Enjoy!

Quick Tip: If the potatoes seem to brown a little too fast, you can cover the baking dish with foil.

I love burgers. American burgers are the best burgers in the world, and the biggest ones too.

They’re juicy and so flavorful. I have been to a few countries and their burgers tasted good, but they were half as small as American burgers. I have always thought that Americans take their burgers seriously. Fish burgers are not new to me. In fact, I always order fish fillet burger from my favorite fast food restaurants. But I have never heard of salmon as a patty. Ever. So when I first tried this I was stunned. My goodness, it’s one of the most delicious patties I have ever tasted!

When in doubt always go with the bundt.

Seriously, you can never go wrong with a bundt cake. It looks great and tastes absolutely amazing. I’ve seen many a bundt cake in my day and this zebra version really makes me smile. It reminds me of those Little Debbie snack cakes. I think they were actually called “zebra cakes”. Well, this bundt tastes way better than a store-bought box of lunch cakes, let me be clear on that notion. Anyway, if you need a fun cake idea I totally recommend making this zebra bundt cake. I mean, just look at it! It’s adorable. My daughter will be getting this cake on her birthday 🙂

Taco salad is the perfect go-to meal when you’re in a bind.

I don’t know how many times I’ve lost track of time and before I knew it my husband was on his way home from work and I had nothing ready for dinner. In these instances, I need to whip up something filling, tasty, and fast. That’s when taco salad comes into play. This recipe isn’t for a giant batch of taco salad where you need to spend an hour in the kitchen chopping up vegetables. I like to think of this version as a more expedited recipe if you will. My husband and kids really like this taco salad and ask for it often. Will you give it a try sometime soon?

Who Else Wants To Eat This Every Day, Holiday Season Or Not?

I love making holiday desserts and I especially love cranberries. You see, not everyone in my family reciprocates my sentiments for the red, round, tart berries. So, in order to get my cranberry fix I have to compromise.

I can’t just serve them straight up cranberry sauce because they won’t eat it. The only way to get my loved ones to eat cranberry sauce is if i buy the overly sugary jellied kind from the grocery store. Not. Gonna. Happen. So, I stumbled upon Good Dinner Mom where I found this recipe for cranberry fluff and all was right with the world!

Tart, crunchy and sweet, this salad is more than just fluffy. It’s super easy to prepare and really packs a punch of flavor. What a great holiday side dish! Another thing I find great about this cranberry fluff salad is how pretty it is. Dare I say that is even girly looking with its pastel pink hue? Shhhh, don’t tell my 10-year-old son that or he will not eat this fluff haha!

A cozy little casserole made with sweet carrots, spices, and lots of yummy butter.

When it comes to holiday side dishes I am always looking for something new and exciting to make. My holiday dinners are quite elaborate and everyone always looks forward to the spread. This year, I am swapping out the sweet potato casserole for carrot souffle. I am a bit nervous about doing this because everyone loves the sweet potato casserole but honestly, they may not even know the difference! Carrots and sweet potatoes are quite similar in taste and texture. Plus, you get to add loads of butter and sugar to the mix. Yummo!
