An easy recipe for a soy honey marinade that is perfect for chicken, steak or pork! I’ve been using this marinade for years and I love it. This recipe makes a large batch, enough to fill a quart mason jar. I’ve always just kept it on the shelf and never had any issues. So, I …

I’ve been using the free site Say Mmm for my meal planning up to this point in conjunction with my Pinterest What’s For Dinner page and it is working out pretty well. My friend Robyn asked me about saving recipes in Say Mmm and I realized it was pretty clunky. Maybe there is a better …
I found some great recipes to share with y’all this week from some of my favorite food bloggers. I’m also using the waffle iron again for something unusual – hash browns. I’ve imagined them turning out nice and crispy so hopefully the waffle iron doesn’t fail me. I’ve been harvesting a bunch of salad from …
I am going to work on a post on slow-cooked baked beans this week. I have made them several times before with varying degrees of success! I wanted a step-by-step tutorial on how to make them from dried beans and couldn’t find a good one, so I’m going to try to do one myself. I’m …
A recipe for Jiffy Cornbread Waffles made from a simple muffin mix! My friend Robyn will attest that I was obsessed with cornbread long before I lived in the South. I remember sending her a souvenir magnet with – you guessed it – a cornbread recipe on it back when we were in college. That was looong …

I have stuck with meal planning for over a month now and I plan to continue for the foreseeable future. SO much less stress during the week when I know I already have everything I need to cook dinner that night! Another benefit is because of the meal plan my husband has had leftovers to take …
Well, I am happy to report that last week’s meal plan worked out wonderfully! I really liked not wondering what I was going to make that night when it came time to cook dinner. We had some hits (awesome marinated grilled chicken, Dijon roasted red potatoes and green beans) and some misses (turns out homemade …
We are hosting a little egg hunt at our house this Easter and I am setting out a brunch buffet for the get-together. I wanted to make four interesting and spring-inspired dishes so here’s the menu: Proscuitto-Wrapped Melon Bites from Southern Living (the recipe says mango but I am using the traditional melon in it’s place) …
I made oatmeal muffins with cranberries last week and really wanted to add some form of orange, but we were totally out of citrus. I bought a bag of clementines yesterday so I made more muffins… any excuse to make more muffins! These muffins have great texture without being dry and have lots of flavor …
