Grandma Carol’s Peanut Butter Fudge

I have shared a recipe for peanut butter fudge once before, but that was before my Grandma Carol’s recipe turned up after being lost for awhile!  I was so happy when my mom told me she had it. This is the smoothest, most peanut-buttery fudge you will ever taste.  Make a batch for…

Weekly Menu Plan, Feb 9 – Feb 15

What a week it has been!  Last week, we were hit with a stomach bug (unfortunately, no one in our family was spared) and over a foot of snow.  Everyone has regained most of their health, which is good!  And the snow is coming down again today, so we will have to see…

Appetizer Enchilada Meatballs

It’s almost the day of the big game! Meatballs are a fun party food, and it’s always nice to find a new way to jazz them up.  I thought it would be fun to make a Mexican-style meatball dipped in enchilada sauce… Put them on a tortilla triangle, top with a cilantro leaf,…

Weekly Menu Plan, Jan 25 – Feb 1

Are you surprised that I only made one of the new recipes from last week?  I’m starting to think maybe I should call these weekly menu “suggestions” 🙂 We weren’t feeling the soup, so I made shrimp lo mein instead.  We also ended up going out to eat for a friend’s 30th birthday,…

Salt & Pepper Chicken

Salt & Pepper Chicken is yet another dish that I had to learn how to make after working at an Asian/Fusion restaurant in college. It flavorful and crispy, and very juicy as it is made with marinated dark meat chicken.  While this was not one of the menu items at the restaurant, our…
