I’m sharing my “Nest’s” favorite dinner roll recipe! It’s a copy cat of the Lion House recipe that my sister-in-law, Debbie, shared with me years ago. It makes the most wonderful traditional dinner rolls you’ll ever have! They are huge, fluffy, and melt in your mouth moist! Slap some butter and raspberry jam on them and it’s the next best thing to heaven on earth! The best part…you make the dough in your bread machine! WoooHooo! You remember bread machines right?

It’s Monday and time to share my all time favorite summer “go-to” salad! Fresh tomatoes are in season! This salad is perfect for helping you use up that garden overload! It’s simple, it’s easy, it’s full of flavor, and it makes any level cook look like a gourmet chef! If you love fresh tomatoes,avocados, and have a secret love-affair with cheese…this simple beautiful salad is for YOU!
I. Love. Pastries! Especially French Pastries! Too bad I can’t just pop on over to France and grab a box full! The great news is with this awesome apple danish you don’t have to. With just one can of crescent rolls and this quick easy fresh apple filling you can bring the “danish love” to your Nest’s kitchen! You are going to love how easy this recipe is and how delicious! With apple season right around the corner you’re gonna want to make this delicious breakfast treat often!
Tuesday Tips is a post I will be doing on the 1st Tuesday of every month! So mark your calendar’s! (wink, wink) Today’s tip is for all you mommy’s out there with little ones. It’s summertime and we are all craving cool treats! From Ice Cream cones to Popsicles, and my favorite, Snow Cones. What about our “littles”? Don’t they deserve a treat too. One that won’t melt all over them and you before they can finish it? I’ve created these healthy yummy “Baby” popsicles! Perfect for baby, toddlers or even your smaller kiddos. Perfect for those “teethers” too! Best part…they are made with fresh fruit and 100% baby fruit juice and they’re super duper easy to make…come take a peek! My model is pretty darn stinkin’ cute!
After a weekend spent with my favorite Carb buddies I decided it was time to find my inner carnivore! I’m sharing one of my all time favorite pork
recipes! Parmesan Crust Pork Chops. They’re ready in minutes from stove top to table! They have a wonderful golden crispy coating outside, and are tender and juicy inside! The perfect recipe for novices or experts chefs alike.
It’s the weekend! Time to celebrate with this easy breakfast treat! These delicious raspberry chipotle filled sugar donuts are just what this weekend calls for! They are super easy to make with only 5 ingredients and you can fill them with whatever you like! If Chipotle isn’t your thing…no sweat! Come join me and my “carb lover’s” addiction by whipping up a batch of these amazing gems! You’re gonna thank me! Come on…ya know ya want to!
I love sticky finger licking, lip smacking, buffalo chicken tenders. The kind they serve at a certain “wing” place…yeah, those! Well, I’ve taken those and added them to a salad (that just erased all the guilt..it’s in the handbook…mix fried foods with greens and greens win!) and used all my other favorite wing sides to go with it! It makes for one mouthwatering salad that is perfect in this killer heat! I don’t know about you but, I really think I’m melting! Which makes this salad just the dish to make for dinner. It quick and easy… and it won’t heat up your kitchen…even better!
Last week I needed to come up with a dinner in a hurry! I had a hangry man coming home and I forgot to pull something out of the freezer! Yikes! (This ever happen to anyone else?) So, I went digging in the fridge and this is what happened! One AMAZING hot sandwich that is a quick, easy, and fantastically delicious meal!
To round out this week I wanted to share one of our favorite new frozen treats! Hand dipped chocolate frozen banana’s with toasted almonds! Usually a treat only found at fairs or amusement parks, I decided it was about time we brought this special treat home to roost! They are so “a-peeling!” (You didn’t think I could resist that pun did you?) You are going to love how simple these are to make and you are REALLY going to love how heavenly they are on a warm summer night!
This week is living proof that sometimes things just don’t go as planned! (Like a trip to the Emergency Room! Ugh!) When that happens you just have to pick yer’self up by the boot straps and keep on moving forward! So, when things aren’t going exactly how you planned, and you need a little sunshine in your life, I say start from the very beginning…Breakfast! What d’ya think? Would this beautiful mixed berry stuffed french toast chase away your blues? (Even though they’re “black”berries? Hmmmm!) It worked for me! I think it will work for you too!
