Say it out loud. SAY IT! It's fun to say. It seems like a no-brainer now, but when I thought of it ten minutes ago, I felt like a genius. So in order to spice it up, I'm posting the recipe only in pictures. You are welcome. &nb...

I've started a new spice combination that works really well with chili. I didn't tell Tom what was in it until he confirmed that he likes it, too.Basically, dump this all in and simmer on the stove or go for the crockpot. I prefer it in the crockpot.2 jars home canned tomatoes or 1 can of tomato sauce and 2 cans of diced tomatoes. If you use the home canned tomatoes, run a stick blender in there to break it up to whatever chunkiness your family prefers.1/2 green pepper chopped1/2...

Anyone who ever follows someone else's bread recipe eventually finds that the person who wrote it gave you absolutes instead of telling you all the places where it might vary day to day. Oh, and that they left out a few ingredients. Here is Aaron's recipe the way he actually makes it (now that I have failed at it twice and now went through the whole process with him). Dump some honey in the bowl. It took about four seconds for the right amount to come out of the bottle.Put just under 3 cups of your...

I invented a recipe. It was sort of a Pinterest-inspired amalgam of all my favorite things. Well, all my favorite non-dessert things. Minus potatoes. You get the picture. Speaking of pictures: I took one. Because I made it once and it was so good that I made it again just so I could take a picture (and then eat it again).Ingredients:Pizza CrustPhiladelphia Cream cheese cooking cream (italian...

Yet another recipe from Our Best Bites. It is becoming a mild obsession around here. (And, by "around here," I mean all of the Waseca Branch and any missionaries who pass through it.)I made this for the Easter Egg Hunt, but due to an abundance of candy and other desserts that were more familiar to the kids, not a lot got eaten. So, we brought it to Tom's family the next day.It was supposed to be for dessert. But, a good portion of it was missing before dinner was over. At dessert time, it went...

I used to love it when Mom made cornbread with chili. I tried to make it, too, but it never turned out the same. I remembered Jiffy cornbread mixes in her cupboard, but those were dry and crumbling, and not like Mom's. I tried various homemade recipes that said they were moist, but they weren't like Mom's.Then, one day, while talking with Amy on the phone, she said, "you know how mom uses yellow cake mix in her cornbread?" What??? I had no idea that was the secret ingredient.Sure enough, cornbread...

Enticing, right? Well this is as seen on one of those Food Network shows where the celebirty chef personality goes around to local shops and talks about how great they are. One of the shops made what they called "garbage cookies". They took their extra cookie doughs and added them to a basic cookie recipe along with all of the leftover fixin's from their kitchen. They were throwing everything from...
