That’s how I felt the first time I tasted pork chops cooked on the stove top. In all honesty, I have never been a big fan of pork chops. In my experience, pork chops are typically dry, tough, or bland and they simply don’t interest me. THESE pork chops? I’d put them up next to a great steak any day of the week. The pork chops were juicy, tender and flavorful and the whole family gave this meal two thumbs up!...

He asked me how he could make it up to me and I told him to buy me a ticket to D....

The slow cooker is constant around our house! If you’re loving yours too, try Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff Soup, Best Easy Slow Cooker Ribs, and Slow Cooker Mediterranean Chicken. It’s feeling very Fall-ish around here. The air has definitely cooled off, the leaves are every shade of red and orange you can possibly imagine, and a huge rain storm just rolled through over the past couple of days giving me the perfect excuse to pull out my favorite grey wanna-be-Hunter rain boots....

What is Queso? In Spanish, “queso” translates simply to “cheese.” However, in the United States, queso usually refers to a hot cheesy dip. It’s often made with Mexican spices and served as an appetizer or party food alongside tortilla chips. Queso Dip We devoured this cheesy dip with tortilla chips the first time we made it and I couldn’t resist making it again a few nights later. The first time I made it we dipped the tortilla chips directly into the bowl, scooping up plenty of gooey cheesy goodness and flavorful bites of steak....

If you love this better-than-takeout meal, you’ve gotta try Kung Pao Noodles, Healthy Sweet and Sour Chicken, and One Sheet Pan Chicken Fried Rice. Last weekend we met up with my in-laws for dinner at a Chinese restaurant in the town where my husband I grew up. This restaurant is pretty good. But people go NUTS for this place. I kind of think it’s because there’s only two main Chinese restaurants in the area and the other one (where I happened to work all through high school) is right next to the freeway and a little bit farther out of the way than this place....

See? Told you I’ve had cheesecake on my mind lately. That roundup of 35 Cheesecake Themed Recipes (click HERE to see!) was just the beginning. My favorite cheesecake is traditional New York style cheesecake, with a little drizzle of raspberry or strawberry sauce on top. That’s the best cheesecake. And let me tell you how I feel about chocolate. Dark chocolate = nasty stuff. Milk chocolate = wonderful. White chocolate = absolute bliss....

You can control the sweetness, and if it’s a lazy summer night, no one is going to judge you for adding a splash of vodka to your glass. Spiked strawberry lemonade? That’s a happy recipe for porch-sitting with friends and family on a Friday night. I love mixing drinks, both with and without alcohol, in the summertime. There’s something extra refreshing about holding a homemade soda, iced coffee, or a frozen chocolate milk....

This is pure summertime heaven. I can promise you now that I will be snacking on this combination over any other options in the near future. Perfectly light and sweet enough that I call it dessert. Just a berry or two lightly dipped in this basil sugar completely satisfies my sweet tooth (and that is no small feat!). I made ¼ cup of this sugar mixture and the amount I’ve used is barely noticeable....

Let the meal prep never end! Meal Prep Greek Chicken Gyro Bowls and Meal Prep Chicken Fajitas are great ways to mix it up and keep things fresh. You guys! This might be the first time I’ve shared a ground beef recipe!
