Pickled Beef Tongue

When I was a kid, my parents always encouraged me to try many different types of food. I think the only food I didn’t like was onion and green peppers. When my mom made stuffed green peppers, she always made me a separate pot of the stuffing with the green pepper left out. I still do not like green pepper today. Dad was […]

Tortilla Chips

How many times do you have left over tortillas and just throw them out? I decided to turn mine into seasoned Tortilla Chips and were they yummy!

Crab Rangoon

I can never turn down Crab Rangoon! I love how this recipe turned out. I bake a big batch of them and freeze them uncooked.   They are ready to eat in 30 minutes from the freezer to our plates. When I’m ready to fix dinner, I put them on a cooking tray to thaw for about 15-20 minutes and bake them in the […]

Beef Sticks

Every year for Christmas I buy my husband a beef stick from Hickory Farms. It’s kind of funny because I don’t usually care to eat any, however, these were amazing! Never in my wildest dreams did I know how easy they are to make. I don’t understand the process in which the ground beef turns into the beef stick consistency […]

Spaghetti With A Twist

I always look forward to Sundays. My grandchildren (age 2 & 5) visit for about 14 hours. Now keep in mind, I am not a morning person! Yet when the alarm goes off at 6:15 am I have no problem getting up to see their smiling faces at my door. Feeding them throughout the day is no problem, they eat […]
