Stop Spending a Fortune On Store-Bought!

Our local outdoors & sports store is going to take a massive financial hit now that I have this awesome recipe for homemade beef jerky!

My husband practically eats beef jerky for breakfast, lunch and dinner. So far he has picked up his favorite brand from that local store of ours, but after I made this the first time he said there’s no going back. I have to admit; I’ve never been that big of a fan of beef jerky but this one was super delicious!

Don’t worry if you don’t have a dehydrator. Yes, it would come in handy when making this, but you can make this in your oven, too! In fact, that’s how I did it and it turned out perfect. I did check on it a few times while cooking, and you should too. Even though you’ll get instructions on the temperature and time, all ovens are a little bit different and you can also adjust the time based on how you like your beef jerky.

Feel free to adjust the seasonings, too, but I would highly recommend trying the recipe as is, first. For us it was perfect!

I Never Knew It Could Be This Delicious To Shed A Few Pounds!

I enjoy spending time at church events; especially if it’s a potluck-type of thing, haha! Not that I wouldn’t enjoy going to church events, anyway, but every time there is food involved, I’m definitely there. The holiday cookie exchange is always a massive success, but I’m looking forward to our annual winter soup potluck. You wouldn’t believe how many great recipes I’ve gathered from there, over the years.

This cabbage soup is one of them, and it fits my post-Christmas mood perfectly. Sometimes I wonder why it is so hard for me to try and resist all the incredible desserts (and chocolate!) over the holidays. It’s virtually impossible – but at least I have this recipe to turn to, when the chocolate season is over!

I have worked my way back to my old jeans with the help of this soup, more often than I would like to admit. But it’s not just for those of us who like to watch our figure – by adding some chicken or ham I’ve served this as a hearty dinner for my family, and they all love it!

Even The Picky Eaters Will Be Fighting Over The Last One!

When I was growing up, we never used to have hot and spicy food at home. I guess my parents were used to milder, traditional dishes and they weren’t big fans of spicy flavors. I never really thought I would like spicy food, either – my cousin made me try plain hot sauce when I was about 8 years old and I thought, that was it. I didn’t want to have anything to do with spicy flavors after that!

It wasn’t until I was about 20 when my boyfriend, now husband, lured me into having some spicy food. He was smart enough not to scare me with a bunch of extra hot chili – he just made me a dish he thought had a little bit of heat in it but not too much to make me cough.

Things have changed a lot since then! These days whenever we get takeout, I choose the spiciest option there is – and probably still drizzle some Sriracha on top of my serving at home. I’m always trying to find new dishes I could try; like these super delicious stuffed jalapenos from Hilah Cooking. These are amazing!

This Classic Recipe Never Goes Out Of Style!

Hi everyone! I hope you’re all doing great and having fun trying out new recipes! I sure am, and that’s why I decided to introduce you to my latest favorite.

Just recently I came across this wonderful crab cake recipe and I just knew they were going to be a hit! It took me a few days to find the time to make these, and I swear just looking at that picture and thinking about making them, made my mouth water.

I think my husband got a little tired of me going on and on about these crab cakes because one day he said; “Honey, today I’m taking care of everything for you. I’ll do the laundry, walk the dogs and go grocery shopping – so could you please just make those crab cakes before you’ll go crazy?” Haha, bless him! He really did do all those things for me, so I had plenty of time to try making these. Not that I really needed that much extra time for these – 25 minutes was all I needed!

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.

This Chicken Is So Amazing, It’s Almost Surreal!

Hello, friends! I hope you are all doing well on this chilly fall day. Maybe some of you aren’t cold because you live some place warm. I’m jealous of you! LOL Anyway, who here is planning on overindulging in sweets and yummy foods over the holidays? I’d be lying if I told you that I have no such plans… So I’m kind of trying to eat lean and healthy before we get to the feast! The right way to do this is by making good foods that are healthy but still taste good. This baked chicken does just that.

The following recipe calls for low-fat Swiss cheese. Some might think this chicken will turn out dry and tasteless, but it’s not true at all! You are really going to enjoy this tasty chicken and how it is prepared. Plus, it won’t encourage the expansion of your waistline. Score! My husband and kids enjoyed this dish, too, which is amazing because they usually are more worst critics in terms of new foods, especially the healthy ones.

The Creamy Sauce Really Takes This Meal To The Next Level

I always make this wonderful chicken alfredo when I feel like having something tasty, super fast, and easy to put together. We often have dinner parties with friends and take turns bringing side dishes, entrees and desserts. This makes the perfect meal for those occasions because it’s made in a slow cooker!

I work from home, but I still don’t have too much extra time to slave away in the kitchen for these special dinners. So the slow cooker comes in handy – and when the meal is done, I can carry the whole thing with me and serve it hot, straight from the crock pot.

This creamy chicken alfredo recipe is the best one I’ve ever tried – and trust me, there have been many! This reminds me of the dish my grandmother used to make – although she did not use a slow cooker back then… I guess many things are a lot easier these days, than they were all those years ago!
