Breakfast Casserole

My family are not regular breakfast eaters.  Mornings are usually busy, trying to scramble to get to school and to work on time.  At best, my kids may ask for a bagel with cream cheese.  However, everyone likes the typical breakfast foods:  eggs, sausage, potatoes.  This recipe has all those things mixed into one delicious …

Cheesy Beef & Potato Soup

I just love Pinterest!  I can spend hours looking at pins, repinning, and sorting things into my categories.  I decided a couple of months ago, that having a single board called “recipes” wasn’t adequate.  If I ever wanted to actually go back and find something that I had pinned, I had better do a better …

Cheddar Parmesan Potatoes

  When your vegetable dish has potatoes and cheese in it, what’s not to love?  I made meatloaf to serve this with, but I think it would be especially good served with ham or pork chops.  This potato recipe would also be great to take to a potluck dinner since it can be made ahead …

Stuffed Red Potatoes

  We made these potatoes because, well, they are adorable. I’ve given you the recipe straight out of the Taste of Home Cookbook, but really, you could fix up your mashed potatoes any way you like. Next time I probably won’t use the Parmesan because I’m just not a big fan of cheesy potatoes. (What …

Vegetable Tian

  I love summer for its vegetables. A few weeks ago we had a tomato donation from Justin’s grandmother and squash from some local friends. A vegetable tian seemed to be exactly the right way to show them all off at once. Garlic, caramelized onions, Parmesan, and thyme add flavor to this impressive looking dish. …

Lyonnaise Potatoes

  It’s a great day! Tonight I finished my last summer term class, a final in Voice Disorders, and I have an entire week and a half to enjoy with my husband before school starts all over again. Believe me, we’re going to take advantage of all 12 days! We’ll be hiking and white water …

Squash & Potato Frittata

  When there are vegetables waiting without purpose in your fridge, a frittata is always a great way to go. You can use essentially any veggies you like and it’s great for breakfast or dinner. Plus college kids like us always appreciate low cost recipes. Here each ingredient is given individual attention, perfectly cooked before …

Hash Brown Casserole

  The hash brown casserole has been around for a LOT of years.  There are some variations of it, but this one has been my favorite for as long as I have been cooking! Tonight, I served it with a grilled pork tenderloin, but I also love it with ham or pork chops.  I’ve eaten …

Latkes (Potato Pancakes)

  I love cooked breakfast foods. But really, I like breakfast foods at about 11:00am, because it takes me a while to wake up and become functional enough in the mornings to cook. (That’s why Saturdays are so awesome.) Every other day of the week, when I can’t afford the luxury of taking so much …
