I love to cook and bake for my family. I'm learning more and more about nutrition and implementing it into our diets.
One of the foods my oldest daughter misses from our BV (before Vegan) days is macaroni and cheese. I’ve bought vegan mac and cheese foods, different “cheese sauces” etc and she’s been less than impressed. (My other daughter doesn’t like mac and cheese so she usually doesn’t vote, lol) So, the other day we thought [...]
So I had a serious craving for my dad’s potato soup the other day. I’ve never made this soup myself, never served it to the family, and haven’t had it in years but I had a fairly good idea of how my dad made it. So I kind of had to guesstimate it, replace the [...]
Super Yum! I ♡ soup! This was just something I threw together yesterday for the fridge. (quick meals) 1 large onion, chopped 4-6 cloves of garlic sliced 3 large carrots, chopped (I like them cut into thin half moon shapes) 3-4 celery stalks, chopped (I had the centers, so it was probably a little more) [...]

How beautiful is this?! It was so lovely and wonderful. My best friend is the queen of interior decor! Fall and Halloween being her favorite season and holiday of the year.

I bet I know what you are thinking… but no, it’s not a cinnamon roll. It’s pizza… Oh yes, that is cheese and herbed french bread you see before you, with hidden layers of pepperoni! Now I bet you are thinking, I want that recipe…. okay. If you insist… 2 cups warm water 2 Tbsp [...]
Doesn’t that look yummy? It was super easy, just a little time consuming. Hubs and the kids loved them! I think next time I want to make a double batch and try freezing them! So the first time I made these I made them with ground beef and steamed tortilla. The problem I was running [...]
Okay so I don’t have an exact recipe for this… I was winging it. First I fried up a whole red onion, 4 stalks celery and a few cloves garlic in some melted shortening. Then I tossed in about a pound of stew meat and let it get browned on the outsides. (mostly cause I’m [...]
