Porcupine Meatballs in Sauce

Date: 2015/02/09

Almond Bark Christmas Mix

Date: 2014/12/26
"An easy holiday mix to make and the kids liked it better than some of the other cookies and candy during Christmas. I think it would have been better without the oil in the almond bark but maybe it would have stuck together too much."

Gingerbread Cookies

Date: 2014/12/15
"A warm cookie that has the perfect spices. My kids did decorate these as it is our holiday tradition. They are delicious without anything, though."

Halloween Bark

Date: 2014/10/29

Simple Rice Pilaf

Country Vegetable Soup

Date: 2014/08/21
"I am trying to watch what I eat. This was good but I thought it was missing some beef flavor or something, too tomatoey for me. I think I would add a can of beef stock in place of some of the water next time."

Brownie Cookie Bar

Date: 2014/07/31
"The kids LOVED this! I couldn't believe how easy it was. Error on the side of undercooked because when the brownie is soft and gooey...oh my!"

Ham Delight Sandwiches

Upside Down Pizza

Date: 2013/10/15
"There were 5 of us and we ate almost the whole dish so it was a BIG hit. I used spaghetti sauce instead of pizza sauce since that's all I had. I will make this again."

Homemade Cracker Jacks with Peanuts
