Between the easy veggie and the stew meat, it’s easy to find the ingredients and the dish comes together quickly. Doesn’t that look delicious? Here’s the […]
Continue readingSauerkraut Pork Roast
Every once in a while my German heritage comes out in my cooking. Not nearly as much as you’d think, but it definitely does with this dish. It’s a sauerkraut pork roast that slowly cooks in the crockpot with brown sugar, apple juice, onion, and a few interesting spices. It may sound weird at first […]

A few days ago I promised my newsletter subscribers I’d share one of the recipe from my latest Kindle Cookbook – Make and Take Meals. I figured I might as well share it here on the blog as well. The recipe is for homemade hamburger stroganoff and it’s a weeknight dinner favorite around here. As […]

This is a very old recipe. Believe it or not, it has been around for over 50 years. It goes together quickly and makes a great one pot meal. It’s a good way to use leftover mashed potatoes. It’s similar to shepherds pie, but we tend to like this version better. If you haven’t tried […]

If you are looking for a basic meatloaf recipe that’s just plain good, this one fits the bill. No need to add gravy, but I do serve it with some ketchup (that’s optional of course). Fix up some mashed potatoes and stewed carrots to go with it and dinner is done. It also makes […]

Growing up in Germany, we didn’t eat sloppy joes. I remember the first time I had these yummy, but difficult to eat sandwiches. It was the first time my husband (then boyfriend) took me to meet his extended family. It was his aunt’s birthday and the whole family got together for a garden and pool […]

We love meatloaf around here and fix it quite often. Each family member has their “favorite” and this particular recipe happens to be mine. I love the flavors of the herbs in here and you just can’t go wrong with adding shredded cheese. I also like that this particular recipe doesn’t call for ketchup. If […]

Beef and broccoli stir fry was one of my favorite foods in college. I would head to the mall and grab a plate in the food court and eat it for 2 or 3 meals. Once I got married and had my own family, heading out for takeout wasn’t usually an option. I missed my […]
