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,…
Every Thanksgiving I get asked to bring a side dish to Thanksgiving dinner; this is something I am very thankful for! I’m going to let my mom and mother-in-law handle the heavy duty Thanksgiving dinner items for as long as possible. Preparing and cooking a turkey for 20+ people is not a skill I’ve developed yet, but side dishes? Those I can handle.
My son, Shane, has been on this pasta salad kick. So, we went on the search for exactly the kind of recipe that he would love… and, we found it. Pasta, packed with meat, olives, cheese, green peppers, and drizzled with Italian dressing! We found the recipe on All Recipes, but ended up changing the…
Happy July, everyone! It’s Samantha from Five Heart Home, and I’m always happy to have the chance to visit with y’all when my monthly Or So She Says post rolls around! Today I brought over a to-die-for seasonal side dish that showcases prime summer produce in an unbelievably tasty way.
These Balsamic Roasted Tomatoes are beyond delectable, y’all. Fresh ingredients and a simple preparation often yield the most delicious results, and that is certainly true of this recipe! All that’s required is to thickly slice some ripe, plump tomatoes, scatter a bit of minced garlic on top, and then sprinkle them with extra-virgin olive oil, flavorful balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and sugar. After roasting at a high temperature, the finished tomatoes become caramelized with an intensely concentrated tomato flavor that is simultaneously sweet and savory. The garlic plays off of such flavors beautifully, as do the chopped fresh herbs that garnish the finished dish.
Good morning to all my friends at Or so she says !

I don’t know about where you live but in my neck of the woods, the days are getting longer and the temperatures are starting to warm up! Yay. It’s time to pull out those grills and get some fun in the sun going on!
This Roasted Garlic Herb Butter recipe is so versatile that you can serve it toasted on a baguette under the broiler or wrap the baguette up in foil and throw it on the grill to steam through!
I’m a little snobbish, when it comes to Potato Salad. I don’t do sweet pickles, sweet anything, or onions. I’m all about lots of dill pickles, hard boiled eggs, and red potatoes. Mmmm, baby. And, my mama makes it right. All the good stuff, PLUS her secret ingredient, Salad Supreme Seasoning. Lots of it. I’m talking the whole dang bottle, hence the orangey-yellow color. Don’t let it scare you. It’s the best. I could make a full meal out of this potato salad, forget the whole ‘side dish’ thing.
I hated baked potatoes as a kid. Whenever my mom made them, they were met with groans and eye rolls. Poor Mom. Now, as so often happens, I love baked potatoes, especially twice baked potatoes. These potatoes are a Southwestern-inspired twist on twice baked potatoes. Instead of the usual butter and sour cream, these guys…
It’s Ruthie from What’s Cooking with Ruthie, here to share another delicious recipe with you! The other day I was watching the Paula Deen Show and she made these fun little “Sausage Balls” she called them. So, I jotted down the recipe to give them a try AND to see if I could make them…

This is such a busy time of year isn’t it?! We’re all trying to squeeze in work, family and all kinds of activities into our days! Sometimes things can get so hectic that meal planning gets overlooked. This can make dinner time one of the hardest times of the day. Some days we barely have…
Wow, can you believe it’s September already?! I love everything that comes with this time of year: the colours, the cool feeling in the air, and especially the food! Lately, I find myself turning towards fall inspired meals! I love the cozy feeling that comes with the heartiness of autumn recipes. So I find myself…
