  • Slow Cooked Chili – Fast, Easy and Delicious!

    While this may not be the recipe for chili connoisseurs, it’s definitely the chili recipe for a busy family! My husband particularly likes this recipe, too, so all the better. It’s got enough kick to be called chili, yet isn’t too spicy for my little guy. Or for me. I’m such a lightweight these days when it comes…

  • Pancakes & Waffles (from Homemade Buttermilk Baking Mix)

    I’ve had numerous requests for recipes using my Homemade Buttermilk Baking Mix. Here are a couple to get you started, and I’ll add more in the future. Remember, if you have any recipe that calls for Bisquick, you can substitute my homemade baking mix cup for cup for the Bisquick. I will admit that I feel…

  • Six Week Raisin Bran Muffins

    Many years ago, I became acquainted with a gal, a dear sister in the Lord, through the church our families attended together. Our lives then were very different, and yet they were very similar. In many ways we were kindred spirits, but the Lord had blessed us each so very differently, it didn’t seem as…

  • Oat Bran Muffins

    These are a healthy, yummy all bran muffin. They are great for the freezer stash, too! (I’ll talk more about ideas for your freezer stash next week.) The recipe makes about a dozen muffins, but you can double it with no problem. Read to the end of the recipe for some good variations, too. OAT BRAN MUFFINS 2 cups…

  • Mile High Whole Wheat (mostly) Biscuit Recipe

    Denise asked me about making big, as in tall, fluffy biscuits when we met at a homeschool conference last July.  I told her I used Bisquick (which is true), and she was hoping for a healthier alternative. I love the ease of making biscuits from a mix, and love using my own healthier alternative to the…

  • Cowboy Casserole Recipe

    We’ve been making this casserole for years. It’s a great one for the boys, but I think that has more to do with the name than anything else! It’s a snap to put together and re-heats well.  It’s a good one to make up early in the day and then put in the crockpot to cook on…

  • Pork Chop and Potato Dish Recipe

    I came up with this dish on a whim while I was making up my menu plan the other day. Seasoned, browned pork chops cooked in the oven over a dish of old-fashioned scalloped potatoes (just like Mom used to make). Comfort food at its finest! This doesn’t take a lot of time to put…

  • Scrambled Eggs Supreme Recipe (lots of variations)

SCRAMBLED EGGS SUPREME Crack enough fresh eggs into a bowl for your family.  Whisk well, until they are fluffly.  Pour beaten eggs onto heated, buttered griddle or…

  • Whole Wheat Cinnamon Raisin Bread (for the bread machine)

    Here’s the recipe for the Cinnamon Raisin Bread we make in our bread machine. This comes out quite nicely, but doesn’t raise into a tall loaf. The texture and flavor are wonderful, though. This is a recipe that Dani and I have adapted to meet the needs of our family. You certainly may substitute regular…
