Best Beef Tacos

Taco Tuesday. Wednesday. Thursday. Friday. I’m happy to have tacos on any day! I always love Asian food, but Mexican is a close second for me. My favorite Mexican restaurant is a place that I have basically committed my life to. I love their enchiladas

Between New Year’s and Super bowl parties, appetizers and small bites take over the whole meal scene. I love a variety, so having a day of appetizers is the perfect party for me. Though, it takes a lot more time to make ten different dishes

The magic of the holidays has faded and now we are on to resolutions, organization, and eating healthy! January can be a difficult month after the high of Christmas-time. I’m sinking into the winter blues, but trying to stay positive amidst the chaos! One way

Pecan Praline Cookies

There are only two or three cookie recipes that I remember making every single year growing up and these were one of them. As I kid, these were not a favorite (more on my picky eating struggles at another time) but now I really enjoy 

Gingerbread Cookies

Gingerbread Cookies

When you think Christmas cookie…you think Gingerbread. Or is that just me? As much as I love all Christmas cookies nothing quite gets me in the mood for the festive season like these delicious little friends. I’ve made many gingerbread cookie recipes where the dough
