If you’re going to make a drink, you might as well make a gallon! This recipe for one gallon homemade lemonade is made with real lemons and sugar. It’s way easier to make than you would think… almost as easy as opening up a can of concentrate! Okay, well not quite the easy, but pretty…
The weather is finally starting to warm up here in Utah. Hallelujah! Bring on the BBQs and outdoor parties! I hope I’m not the only one, but when I get asked to bring something to a party there are certain food items I’m comfortable making and others that I avoid like the plague. “Sure, I’ll bring a dessert and chips and a bowl of fruit, no problem! Oh, you want me to bring a pasta or potato salad? Actually, I’m going to be sick that day…” 😉 Side salads have really never been my thing, and neither have DRINKS. Yeah, I can pick up a few bottles of soda, but I’d rather have it be something special and the drink section in my recipe binder is slim to say the least! If your collection of drink recipes could use some bulking up as well, check out these 22 non-alcoholic party drinks and try one out next time you find yourself saying yes to, “Will you bring the drinks??”
Growing up, one of my most favorite meals was my mom’s Crock Pot Pork Chops. I doubt she makes them anymore, only because she’s moved waaaaaay up in the cooking world. This recipe uses a can of Campbell’s soup. She’s cooking with kale, fresh ground ginger, and flavored salts. I’m not quite there, yet. So,…
Pizza night is a weekly thing at our house. We usually have it on Friday and make it a pizza and movie night and it has been something that the kids always really look forward to and a great way to kick off the weekend. It’s one of my favorite nights to cook because no one whines about pizza–and homemade pizza is much faster and easier than you might think! Chicken pesto pizza is a new favorite in our families, and is worth the little extra effort to make homemade dough.
These Apple Pie Biscuits are super simple to make and are sure to be a crowd pleaser! Hearty, warm, comforting apple desserts are always a winner in my book!
French toast is a classic breakfast dish that’s super easy to make and totally delicious. It’s basically just bread soaked in a mixture of eggs, milk, and cinnamon, then cooked until golden brown and slightly crispy. You can top it with whatever you like – fresh fruit, syrup, powdered sugar, whipped cream, the works! It’s…
Before we get to the easiest chicken and dumplings recipe ever, do you wanna hear about my creepy weekend?? If not, scroll down. The Easiest Chicken Dumplings (the kids LOVE this!!) But first, story time… My creepy weekend (why I need some comfort food…) So, it was probably 10 at night. I had all the…
Hello there! It’s Jana from Double the Deliciousness and I’m so excited that it’s pie season. That is an actual season in my world, and it’s one of my favorites! We even have a family tradition every year around Thanksgiving involving pie …….”We’re Thankful for Pie Night”! Every family brings their favorite pie and we gorge on pie and visit and laugh and have the best time!
We live a state away from family and so on those years we DON’T visit family for Thanksgiving we invite friends over to our home and enjoy pie together. Pie brings people together, did you know? And we love having friends over and eating pie together so much that on the years we DO travel we still have our Pie Night with our friends the weekend before Thanksgiving….and then we have our family one on Thanksgiving Eve. Yes, we end up having 2!:) You can never have too much pie, right? (Except that one year…spent the entire night with my head in the toilet. I didn’t think I’d ever be able to eat pie again…glad I was wrong!:)) It is the best tradition, and how could it not be…pie, friends, laughter, pie, family, visiting, and did I mention PIE?
I had all these big, productive plans for the summer…update my food storage, organize the kid’s closets (out with the old), touch up the paint on my walls (kid damage), catch up on my digital scrapbooks, etc. And, here it is almost August and I have nothing to show for myself…and I can’t explain it,…
Hello! It’s Kathy from Beyond the Chicken Coop! Summer is here and while I always think there will be time to slow down, I find I’m busier than ever. And as much as I love baking, it’s the last thing I want to do on these hot summer days. This No Bake Cherry Delight is one of my go-to desserts during the summer. I love this dessert for so many reasons; it’s fast, it’s versatile, and it’s always a favorite with everyone.
I really had to swallow my pride to get to the point where I could share these sugar cookies from scratch recipe with you. Granted, it’s not MY recipe…I think I found it on the Food Network, back in the days. But, this soft, chewy sugar cookie recipe has made me the “chick that makes…
These jack-o’-lantern stuffed peppers are so easy and would make the most fun dinner for Halloween night or a Halloween party. If you have kids that are old enough, they could even carve a face onto their own pepper! We’re always looking for ways to get our kids involved in the kitchen because they are always more anxious to eat something they helped to create. This is a great recipe to get them involved.
