Twice Baked Potato? Kind Of! Give This Alternative A Try!

Oven 400 Time: size of potato matters It's no secret, I love potatoes, in all shapes and sizes, fixed any way, sweet, white, purple, and so on. One favorite way is a good ol baked potato, topped with a sauce, sour cream, butter, gravy, you name it, I've probably done it.

Oh So Simple/Good Roast Chicken, Simple Sauce Too!

Oh So Simple/Good Roast Chicken, Simple Sauce Too!

Oven temp: 400 Time 50-55 minutes We love chicken in our house. Any way works for us, but sometimes it can be rather bland. I favor dark meat because I feel it has more flavor, is hard to overcook, is usually cheaper to buy, and it has more goodness health wise.

This recipe/post is for some of my vegetarians I have on my blog, as well as the rest of us! It is no secret I am not a fan of kidney beans, dark or light. Therefore, you will not see them in any of my recipes. However, if you are, any bean is interchangeable in any recipe. My favorite are chic peas, cannellini, and a black bean now and then is fine. I am a huge fan of beans cooked from scratch, because, I am lucky enough to have the time. I do, however, keep a few cans on ha

My Kids Always Approved, Am Sure Yours Will Too!! Try These Rollups!

Once again, I first off need to say, thank you to several more new joiners in the last few days to my blog. It is a simple blog, for fun, no ads, no videos, and hopefully easy to follow instructions, that's about as technical as we get at my house. Welcome! Today I am blogging a simple idea, a blast from my past as they say. I may have mentioned this in the past or not, but when my kids were little they were brought up with a mother who was always on a diet, yup and still am
