My children LOVE corned beef. They get so excited when I make it. I love making homemade corned beef hash with the leftovers (when there are leftovers!)

These were so good. I think what I liked about them was the lack of green pepper – green pepper throws the taste of baked beans off for me. I think some beef bacon would have been good in them as well, but this recipe is entirely vegetarian. The flavors were wonderful. Because there are no meat or dairy products in it, this is a perfect dish for a Daniel Fast or for Lent.
Pin ItI’m a big fan of simple is better. Since Gregg’s favorite cake is red velvet cake, I’ve tried many cream cheese frosting recipes seeking the best one. This recipe, with its four simple ingredients, is the best I’ve ever found. It’s light, creamy, and beyond delicious.
Pin ItHere’s the menu for my family for the week of March 14th. This is an unusual week for me. Our church is taking part in a call to 40 days of fasting and prayer. I’ve decided to do a Daniel Fast throughout the 40-days, and that begins on Wednesday. Gregg’s food options in Afghanistan aren’t great, so he will maintain his weekly day of a full fast. Kaylee is going to be fasting from refined sugar. Scott and Johnathan will not be fasting.
On top of that, I have a Kentucky Romance Writers Workshop this weekend that will involve eating dinner out three times, and the children eating elsewhere.
Pin ItHere’s the menu for my family for the week of March 7th. As far as desserts go, my cookie jar sat empty for so long that I finally removed it from the counter, and my husband hasn’t had homemade cookies from me in WEEKS. Consequently, I’m declaring this week to be cookie week. My husband is getting Oatmeal Raisin Cinnamon Chip Cookies, and my kids are getting Whole Wheat Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies. That jar will be refilled! It’s also Kaylee’s birthday party Saturday. She wants a tiered zebra striped cake. This oughta be fun. :-)
Pin ItHere’s the menu for my family for the week of February 28th. As far as desserts go, I have some peaches unthawed that I used to make Scrumptious Cookie Pizza, so I’m going to make a peach cobbler or a Peach Pie with Whole Wheat Crust with those. It is also my birthday week, so I’m going to help the kids make me a birthday cake! I’ll likely splurge and go chocolate chocolate. This weekend we will be celebrating my niece’s 4th birthday, and she has asked me to make her a Wonder Woman cake. Yay me! How exciting! I’ve been working on ideas for a few weeks.
Pin ItI try to keep chocolate chip cookies in our cookie jar all the time. My kids love them. Sometimes I’ll spread them into a jelly roll pan and cut them into bar cookies, other times I make traditional cookies. I love them with pecans or walnuts. Molasses keeps them chewy and gives them a more brown sugar flavor than most recipes.
Pin ItThese are good with a toothpick at an hors d’oeuvres party, or added to spaghetti sauce to as a wonderful topper for pasta. You can cut the meat in half with ground turkey.
Pin ItThis is the perfect recipe to make for a breakfast or brunch. They are packed with flavor from all of the spices, and the cream cheese is a beautifully decadent addition.
Pin ItI love making this and taking it to events. It’s attractive, striking to the eye. It’s delicious. And, as far as desserts go, it’s moderately healthy compared to what desserts could be.
