I have FIVE salad recipes to share with you to kickstart your summer! These are all easy and use pretty basic ingredients you may already have on hand. I hope you enjoy and that your summer is filled with great memories and good food!

I have another quick and popular recipe for you. I made these during a recent Florida vacation, and they were a big hit as usual. The recipe card is for rolled chicken tacos, but I've made almost the same recipe with ground beef so you can definitely mix it up. The original recipe I got this from called for more shredded cheese added before baking, but we find the cream cheese to be plenty for us. Again, you can totally make this thing your own! I hope it's a winner in your h

I have been trying to share ways to save money in the kitchen, and this is another great way to do it. First, there is almost nothing as good as the smell of your home when bread is baking. Such a bonus! But, also, it can really save you serious money, especially if you are one to try and buy bread that has clean ingredients. This recipe is tried and true! My kids are now baking bread with it regularly, and it's amazing. I use a bread machine for it because it's so easy, but

This recipe has been in our rotation for decades in various forms. Judah grew up eating this, probably sparking his love for Chipotle. 😋 I try to share lots of different recipes in my vlogs, as you know, and this is one I recently showed. Also, in case you didn't know, you can usually talk to me in the comments section of my YouTube videos live for the first hour after they post. Videos come out on Mondays and Thursdays at 3 pm Central Time. Hope to see you there and hope yo

We have a large family, but have managed to stay well below the national average per person in our grocery budget. Of course milking our own cows is part of that, but another huge factor in saving us real money is found in our pantry. I hate going to the store for something small only to leave spending way too much on stuff I didn't even need. A great way to avoid this is to be prepared with spice mixes that are ready to go when you need them. The spice recipes I'm sharing h

I recently made this meatloaf and I HAD to share it with you! We have been making Big Mac dressing for a while now--we'll have it on salads and it's a big hit. I'm sharing the recipe for that sauce here, too. But, I came across a video recipe for this meatloaf and it was so good. The sauce is great drizzled all over it. If you try it, let me know. You can usually talk to me in the comments section of my YouTube videos live for the first hour after posting. Videos come out on

Today, I just wanted to share an easy recipe that a friend recently reminded me of. Applesauce! We still have a lot of apples on hand here in Nebraska, and if you're in a similar boat, you may want to give this one a try. I am including the recipe card here for you. One note: I really think the immersion blender is the key here. If you don't have one, they are so great for so many recipes, like soups and different pureed foods. If you throw these in a standard blender, they g
