As a young girl, I can remember my grandma making rice pudding to eat in the morning for breakfast. She would typically do this on a Sunday before church. Sometimes, grandma would make rice pudding when she made a big dinner. Everyone always loved it. Leftover rice pudding was my favorite. You would add a little milk to your bowl and warm the pudding up in the microwave. Absolutely delicious! And you know what? Rice pudding is incredibly easy to make, too!

There are many variations in the way rice pudding can be made, but this recipe seems to be my favorite. it’s warm, creamy, and very dreamy! I just find something extremely comforting about rice pudding. I enjoy its overall texture, the tastes, and how filling it is. I think rice pudding makes a wonderful breakfast options because it’s a heavy dessert and sits in your tummy keeping you full until lunchtime. Kids love the stuff, too!

If you have a hankering for some good Southern cookin’ and the convenience of a fast one-pot meal, give this Quick One-Pot Red Beans and Rice recipe a try. It’s great flavor without much hassle or time investment.

I love red beans and rice. It’s a classic Southern meal, particularly good for the cooler months. The traditional method involves cooking the beans with some good herbs, spices, and various types of pork until the beans (and other ingredients) practically make a gravy. It’s delicious, but it takes an incredibly long time, and then you have to cook the sausage and rice separately. This recipe lightens things up a bit (some people who aren’t fans of creamier or soupier beans may actually prefer that; I like them both ways), and even more importantly, it combines everything into one easy pot and speeds everything up while still bringing that great Deep South flavor.

Quick tip: If you like extra spicy food, add some red pepper flakes!

Casseroles make weeknight dinners a whole lot easier to put together. This Stuffed Cabbage Casserole is on the leaner and healthier side but still packs a nice cheesy and savory flavor. You have to love one-pot dinners that are ready in half an hour, taste great, and give you plenty of vitamins, dietary fiber, and lean protein without overdoing the less-healthy stuff. Suffice it to say, I will be making this one again. It’s a good go-to meal for the busier days, and of course a one-pot dinner means less cleanup afterwards!

Whenever I have more time I use fresh onion, garlic and herbs instead of powders, but it’ll be delicious either way. I also like to make a larger portion so that I’ll have enough leftovers for the next couple of days – they reheat beautifully so that’ll make lunch so much easier for me!
