• One Pan Mexican Quinoa

  My dear friend, Carol Jewell brought this over to my girls when my husband was in the hospital. She brought it in the pan and left it on the stove. She said as she was leaving she turned around and saw the girls eating it right out of the pan! There was none left when…

• Monster Cookies

  I started making monster cookies when we were building our house. I baked for my builders all the time, and they loved Monster cookies, so I decided to try them out. I tried 3 or 4 different recipes and never really loved any of them, so I made up my own version to make the…

• Sugar cookie cut outs

  I really do not like the time and effort it takes to make cutouts, but I like having them. They always look good and taste wonderful! I’m very fine motor challenged, so I stick to frosting and using sprinkles. I was asked to make cookies for an MSU graduation so I decided I would do…

• Peanut butter cut outs dipped in chocolate

  If you are fine motor challenged like I am, there are other ways you can decorate your cookies instead of using the royal icing to make them look nice. My friend Joyce brought me these cookies when my youngest child was born. She used pillsbury peanut butter cookie mix and Meijer brand candy quick. How…

• Sourdough bread and pizza dough

  My daughter and I tried to make a sour dough starter over her Christmas break. When the directions said it was ready to use we made sour dough bread. When we opened the jar – it smelled so sour, but we thought, it is sour dough, right? We made the bread and it was an…

• Super Awesome Breakfast Muffins

  This is a great recipe made with no flour! You just mix the ingredients together in a blender and pour into the muffin tin. I sprayed the tins instead of using a cupcake holder. The recipe suggests adding toppings after you pour the batter into the pan. This is what I did and I made…

• Rhubarb cake vs Rhubarb bread

  I found these two recipes and thought I’d make both to see which I liked better. Both were super easy to make, but they also had almost the exact same ingredients. The amounts are different and one calls for butter, the other oil. I made them exactly as the instructions said. I was lucky to…

• Strawberry Rhubarb Coffee cake

  When I saw rhubarb in the grocery store, I had to get some to make my strawberry rhubarb coffee cake! It’s a family favorite! I like to make a couple batches of the filling and freeze it so I can make the coffee cake when rhubarb is not in season. Good to save the filling…
