Best Coleslaw Dressing

I am a southern girl at heart. Coleslaw is a side dish often made in my house. I have never bought a premade coleslaw dressing. I’ve always made my own which consists of simple ingredients. Vinegar, milk, hot sauce, mayo, and seasonings. My dad has been making vegetables in sauce lately and that sauce is…

Chicken Enchiladas

Something I absolutely love is enchiladas! I figured out the hard way that red chile enchilada sauce gives me acid reflux and heartburn, so I turned to green chile enchilada sauce and it doesn’t make me so sick. This recipe calls for the green chile enchilada sauce which you can buy any kind in the…

Homemade multi-purpose cleaner

I am an essential oil maniac and have spent the last year or so slowly ditching chemical based cleaners/products. One that I use for my kitchen/bathrooms/anything is a vinegar based cleaner.

I followed loose guidelines of a “chicken pot pie soup” but I always deviate and change it up. So maybe it best be called “Creamy Chicken and Vegetable Soup” but that’s not cool or catchy. But…

Mild Salsa & Hot Salsa

I love homemade salsa and I think I have like 100 different recipes but my two most recent recipes have been favorites! I’m about flavor with salsa and not heat, whereas the hubs is all about heat, so when I make salsa I have to make two batches. Becomes a lot of work but since…

Kids in the Kitchen

I feel so strongly about teaching kids to cook and getting them involved at such a young age. For starters, it teaches them great life skills, but it is such good quality time together. I strive to make 9 out of 10 meals home made and not store bought (we do splurge on pizza and…
