If you’re a fan of mouthwatering meat, with juices that drip off the fork as you’re taking a bite then you have to try this Mississippi Roast. It’s phenomenal, and I couldn’t stop eating it. I ate it when it was close to the end of cook time, you know, I had to try it. Then I ate it at dinner, then for an evening snack and yes, in the morning with eggs. It’s an addictive flavor and it is so versatile for leftovers that you can throw it together with any sauce or toppings and it’ll seem brand new.

This is an easy one to please anyone, because it has basic flavors. One time, we even added some salsa to leftovers and had tacos. My husband had a huge hunk of this meat and actually raised his fork with it on there and stated, “I’m in heaven!” It made me laugh, he’s so silly. But you get the idea! This meat rocks!

Quick Tip: There are great liners that make crock pot clean up easier – check them out!

How good, no… how GREAT does it feel to get dinner prepped and out of the way in the morning so at the end of the day you can just serve it? That is why I love my crock pot and use it year round. I don’t know why some people consider it a winter only tool. It’s actually much more pleasant than standing over the oven, stove or grill. I make plenty of meals in the summer that are enjoyed by all and I put in minimal effort! That’s winning in my book.

The sweet and tangy flavor of General Tso’s chicken has been a favorite in our household for many, many years. So you can imagine how thrilled I was to discover I could make this in my crock pot and get all that flavor and goodness right at home – no takeout needed! My kids were super excited to try it. It smelled amazing too, but my only concern was the consistency and if it’d be too soggy after cooking for so long. It actually came out perfect! I couldn’t wait to eat it again in an hour when I was done!

Meat and taters, that’s what’s for dinner! You simply can’t go wrong with the combo whether it’s a juicy steak and baked potato or a casserole like this one featuring lean ground beef and scalloped potatoes. There are only six ingredients in this quick throw together dish but it packs a lot of flavor and is definitely a family pleaser that’s approved by kids and adults alike. What more could you ask for?

I have had many a crab cake in my day, usually at the various restaurants in my area, as we live right near the ocean – lucky us! I’ve found they come in a wide variety of flavors and consistencies. I wanted to make them at home for my adoring fans, aka. my family, so I began scouring the internet for the best recipe. Whom other than Paula Deen could get it right? She absolutely did! These are on par with the best crab cakes I’ve ever had.

I was walking in the grocery store a couple weeks ago when I came across Berry Crème Oreos.  Normally I grab some DoubleStuf and I’m on my way, but these Berry Cremes caught my eye and I paused for a much longer time than was normal.  I debated which flavor or Oreo to get (have you SEEN all the options now?)  Nevertheless, I felt I had to have them.

I hate the mornings.  And it’s sad because the mornings truly are such a peaceful time.  You know when you wake up earlier than anyone else in the house, and it’s just…. Quiet.  You can sit by your favorite window and enjoy a book, or perhaps lounge in the kitchen and listen to your favorite radio show? Now, usually when I sit quietly by myself in the morning, I have a piping hot cup of coffee in one hand and a juicy blueberry muffin in the other. Talk about pure, unadulterated bliss!
