Who doesn’t love 7 Layer Dip? While I love the flavors, I always feel like it’s a little messy to serve. So, I took some inspiration from my aunt’s sausage stars, and decided to make 7 Layer Taco Cups! They are so fun and full of flavor. Your guests are sure to be…

Grandma Carol’s Chili
First of all, Happy Birthday to my little sister! We love you lots and hope your day has been amazing 🙂 On a cold winter’s day, there’s not much like a pot of chili simmering away for dinner. Add a side of corn bread, and you’ve got a meal! It’s an easy soup…
Ground Beef Shepherd’s Pie

Slow Cooked Pot Roast
Growing up, my sister and I had any choice we wanted for our “birthday meal” on the day we celebrated our birthday. It was always the same thing… homemade fried chicken, mashed potatoes & gravy, corn, and some variation of a jello salad. We only ate homemade fried chicken twice a year. Why…
