This simple recipe for chicken & noodles in the slow cooker comes out tasting like old fashioned comfort food. Almost in chicken & dumpling territory, this dish is certain to hit the spot.
This recipe is stupid simple.
And it is so, SO good. My eyes are closed and I am sighing a little thinking about it. That’s how good it is.
You need to make it.
These cottage cheese oat pancakes feel too simple to taste as good as they do. They are quick to whip up in the blender, and are a good source of protein.
I was talking with a friend of mine recently about milk. Specifically, foods that kind of require an ice cold glass of milk alongside them. What would be on your list? Pancakes were at the top of ours.
I have a recipe for the perfect pancakes, and I stand by that. But sometimes you want the comfort of pancakes, but are trying to slip a little more protein into your day. This is the recipe for those days.
These oatmeal creme pie sandwich cookies are a special treat that are filled with sweet gooey nostalgia. Brown sugar oatmeal cookies with a marshmallow-ey filling. They’re easy to make, too!
Sometimes you’re looking for a quick cookie recipe to knock out a sweet treat. Other times, you want to take the time to make something a little more involved. These special goodies are for those days. Not that they’re difficult. They’re cookies. But sandwich cookies simply have a few more steps…steps that are worth it.
I made this recipe a long long time ago, and then it drifted to the back of my recipe box. (Anyone else have a recipe box, or are you pretty much all digital now?) Somehow I didn’t make them again until last week.
My sweet daughter-in-law and perfect grandbaby spent the day with me recently. We made a couple of changes from the original that, I think, take them through the roof…and I think I’ll be making them more frequently now.
Super simple chocolate cake with fudge icing made ‘magically’ with no eggs. Perfect for a birthday cake or a sweet snack.
Chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. Pretty much every birthday until I discovered German Chocolate frosting and switched things up on occasion.
And this was the recipe my mom made. When I was old enough to read and saw that the recipe was called ‘Magic Fudge Cake’ I asked her why. “Because it doesn’t use any eggs,” was the answer.
Unimpressed, I wondered why that mattered. Big deal, who doesn’t have eggs.
Fast forward to 2023, and here I am regretting not having chickens anymore. Yikes, right?!
So…with the price of eggs at a premium, perhaps you’ll enjoy having this little baby in your back pocket.
This honey bun cake is moist, sweet, and sticky… and incredibly simple. Prepare to be asked for the recipe every time you make it.
There are some recipes that every time you make it, someone asks you for the recipe and you think…why don’t I make this more often??
This is one of those recipes.
I found it a lot of years ago in a cookbook called The Cake Mix Doctor. (This recipe and one for a cream cheese pound cake were the real standouts in the book, most of the others I tried were kind of meh).
As you might guess from the title of the cookbook… this recipe uses a cake mix. If you’re a from scratch only kind of cook, feel free to pass on this recipe. If you, like me, are okay with the convenience of mixes now and then…keep reading.
This simple homemade oatmeal sandwich bread smells amazing baking, is easy to slice, and soft and delicious to eat. You’ll be glad the recipe makes two loaves!
Sometimes you just want a good, sliceable, toastable, loaf of bread.
This is that loaf.
It’s perfect for slicing and serving fresh with just about any meal. We like it with butter, honey, or my dad’s homemade strawberry freezer jam. Mmmmmm…
It’s also totally delightful sliced and toasted with Nutella, or peanut butter, or lots of butter and cinnamon-sugar or more jam or honey.
I’m not particularly good at thinly slicing homemade loaves, but if you are…this would make fantastic saandwiches as well. Yum!
