I also made tater tots for dinner last night. It’s a recipe I saw recently on Heavenly Homemakers. I grew up eating tater tots a lot. But I haven’t had one in many many years. And this sounded like a fun finger food to go with our chicken nuggets. These are pretty simple to make. …
Chicken Nuggets
Last night for dinner I made chicken nuggets. This isn’t a new recipe for me. And I’ve actually posted this recipe before as fried chicken. But the last time I made chicken nuggets I made them this way (instead of just a simple breading and baking them) and we all LOVED them. And it’s super easy. …
Cat in the Hat Cake
My nephew just turned 3. This year he wanted a Cat in the Hat party. This is the cake I made for it. Turned out pretty well I think. A 12″ white cake with sprinkles. It was fun to get to be creative and do some drawing. And I used healthier ingredients in the cake. …
Whole Wheat Beer Bread
One of the first recipes I “posted” on my blog was beer bread. I guess I never actually posted the recipe…just a picture and a link to my cousin’s wife’s blog. Her blog is now by invite only, so that doesn’t do much good 😛 I haven’t made this bread in a long time because …
Crispy Hazel Nuts
In addition to macadamia nuts I soaked/dried some hazel nuts. I’m not sure I’ve ever even had a hazel nut. But I wanted to try it. Same process. And another yummy snack 🙂 I’m having fun experimenting with different nuts (since I LOVE nuts). Maybe next I’ll try Brazil. I hear those are quite healthy …
Crispy Macadamia Nuts
This week I tried soaking a couple new kinds of nuts. One was macadamia. After doing my post on nuts and reading about how healthy they are I wanted to try some right away. I don’t think I’ve eaten one in years. Boy are they good! I only did a small batch to try them …
Grain Free Muesli
I recently made muesli for the first time. And it was really good! But my tummy doesn’t handle oats very well. So I can’t eat that. Then I came across this recipe on Gluten Free Diva for a grain free version of muesli. I tried it this morning. Awesome!! It’s basically the same ingredients I …
Goulash
Last night I made an old classic for dinner. It’s one of those recipes that’s not really much of a recipe…just beef, sauce and noodles. But it’s my mom’s recipe for goulash. We ate this a lot growing up. I haven’t made it in a long time. But it’s always good and easy. I prepped …
Green and Yellow Deviled Eggs (Packers Eggs)
Since my husband is from WI and is a huge GB Packers fan…and they were in (and won!) the Super Bowl yesterday I wanted to make something fun for the occasion. I decided to make yellow and green deviled eggs. I made regular deviled eggs for the yellow. And I added avocado for green. Again, …
Grain Free Salmon Cakes
Yesterday I wanted something light for lunch since I knew we’d have a bigger, snacky dinner. And I’m trying to get more seafood into my diet right now. So I decided to make salmon cakes. I’ve made them before…but a recipe that takes some extra work and prep ahead. I wanted something easy. So I …
