Because it’s fall, we’ve been eating a lot of pumpkin-flavored treats. However, I love a variety of fall flavors, so this past week we tried a new dessert: Snickerdoodle Apple Cobbler. The flavor of this cobbler was incredible! If you like apples and snickerdoodles, then you’ll want to give this one a try … [Read more...] about Snickerdoodle Apple Cobbler

Air Fryer Zucchini Chips
When my parents came to visit us about a month ago, they brought us a zucchini from my sister’s garden. If you’ve ever grown zucchini, then you know zucchinis tend to grow until they are rather large. This was one of those zucchinis. I was pleased to have this giant piece of produce because I’d been wanting to try to make fried zucchini … [Read more...] about Air Fryer Zucchini Chips
Roasted Summer Vegetables
As many of you know, my kids (and husband) aren’t big fans of most vegetables. I often try new ways to prepare veggies in an attempt to find ones they’ll enjoy. My attempt last week was a pan of these colorful, delicious Roasted Summer Vegetables. Ingredients 2 bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange), chopped 1 yellow squash, sliced … [Read more...] about Roasted Summer Vegetables
Slow Cooker Meatball Tortellini
I have a love-hate relationship with slow cooker recipes. They are so convenient to prepare but I find that many taste somewhat bland and contain certain components that are mushy (it’s hard to cook veggies and meats well when they are all in one pot at one temperature). Nevertheless, I’ve been using my slow cooker at least once per week in … [Read more...] about Slow Cooker Meatball Tortellini
Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta
I tried a new recipe earlier this month. Like the Creamy Chicken Caesar Pasta I prepared for the first time last month, this recipe is one that my husband came across and thought sounded good. I’m so glad we gave it a try because it was delicious! It’s a one-skillet meal, so preparation and cleanup are super easy. If you like pasta … [Read more...] about Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta
Air Fryer Steak Bites
I tried a couple of new recipes during the month of June. Our favorite was this one. I’ve made steak bites before, but I had not previously prepared them in the air fryer. It turns out that this is a wonderful way to prepare them! In fact, it will be my default means of preparing them from now on. Check out these tasty, easy-to-prepare … [Read more...] about Air Fryer Steak Bites
Creamy Caesar Chicken Pasta
A while back I shared about how I got my husband to use Pinterest as a tool to save recipes that he’d like for me to try. He doesn’t pin things very often, but a few weeks ago he did pin a couple of recipes that sounded good to him. Because he was excited about these recipes, I deviated from our menu so I could try one. I was also … [Read more...] about Creamy Caesar Chicken Pasta
BBQ Chicken Salad
I love salad. I could eat salad every day of the week and be happy, but my husband definitely doesn’t share this sentiment. Though he will eat it, he doesn’t find it to be as delicious and satisfying as I do. Thus, I’ve been trying a few new salad recipes in order to find some varieties that are hearty and have a flavor that he … [Read more...] about BBQ Chicken Salad
