  • Sausage, Peppers, and Onions – Pressure Cooking Or Slow Cooker

    I found this recipe and decided to make this for our dinner.  We loved that it was made in a pressure cooker.  Hubby got a lesson on how the pressure cooker works.  He saw how long the recipe was supposed to take so that he could gauge what time dinner was going to be on…

  • Green bean casserole is a frequent dish on many peoples’ Thanksgiving tables.  I’ve changed it by using frozen green beans instead of canned green beans.  So it has more of a fresh taste to it.

On Saturday, I found a ham on sale for $1.19 a pound.…

  • My family usually prefers the blue box for macaroni and cheese, so it’s hard to find a homemade macaroni and cheese they would love.  This is one macaroni and cheese recipe that they enjoyed eating. This recipe makes a LOT of macaroni and cheese.  I made this dish on a Saturday night.  We ate it…

  • I thought it would only be fitting to start the Countdown to Thanksgiving with a turkey recipe. On Sundays, we have a family dinner with my mother-in-law.  Last week, I found turkey breast on sale for 99 cents a pound, so I picked up a 7-pound turkey breast.  I then cooked it up for our…
