Farewell, blue box. You have been forever replaced. I don’t care if you are ready to eat in less than 30 minutes. Your successor boasts gooey, real cheese bubbling underneath a breadcrumb topping… I’m melting just thinking about it.

Whole Wheat Pizza Dough
Next time you make a pizza at home (such as Honeymoon Pizza!), I would like to encourage you to make your own dough. It isn’t incredibly difficult; it just requires some forethought and time. I think you will enjoy the taste of this homemade whole wheat pizza crust! And it tastes so much…
Honeymoon Pizza
You will love this pizza. My mouth waters just thinking about it… And the story behind it is just about as good!
Lettuce Wraps
Savory and slightly sweet… Crunchy and tender… Lettuce Wraps are great as both an appetizer, or a main course. They are not elegant by any means; don’t expect to eat these without getting sauce all over the place!
Stuffed Shells
When I put together the ingredients for this dish to be photographed, I thought, “Surely I’m forgetting something!” But I wasn’t. Stuffed Shells is a simple pasta dish that looks and tastes like you spent a lot of time in the kitchen. It’s also a meal that can be prepared in stages, which…
Cheeseburger Soup
One more soup to help you warm up during the chilly days leading up to spring… This is a delicious variation on your classic potato soup. It actually smells like a cheeseburger while you’re cooking it! My Aunt Cindy shared this tasty soup with us years ago, and we’ve been making it ever…

I have found many good recipes through the years from this magazine, as it is perfect for the everyday home cook!
Italian Sausage Pasta Sauce
Looking for a meat sauce that’s not ground beef-based? I think you’ll like this one… Italian Sausage Pasta Sauce. It’s chunky and full of flavor. Perfect with penne or spaghetti. Just like many of my Italian recipes, this is one which I think tastes as good (if not better!) the next day.
Spinach Lasagna
I don’t make many lasagnas. In fact, I think this is the only recipe I’ve ever made. It began with a recipe which my sister found on the internet, and I have tweaked it to our liking. I started by making it smaller, as the original recipe made a 13″ x 9″ pan…
Cheesy Potato Soup with Bacon
This is one of my husband’s favorite soups. I like that it is easy to make, yet it is still tasty. One of my favorite ways to stay warm on a snowy day is with a hot bowl of hearty soup. This definitely fits the bill! If you like chunky potato soup with…
