Welcome

It is too easy to get stuck in a rut of cooking the same meals over and over. I often get requests for my recipes and people ask where I get all my ideas. I thought it was time I compile my recipes, ideas, and suggestions into one place to share with others. In this blog, you will find tips I have for success in the kitchen, kitchen gadgets that I recommend, and recipes. Recipes are tagged with the main ingredients along with cooking style to make searching easier. Enjoy!

Texas Caviar

Before getting married, my Maid of Honor threw me a really nice bridal shower. One of the best things she did was send out 2 recipe cards with each invitation and asked everyone to write down 2 of their favorite family recipes for me. Then she decorated a file box and gave it to me with all the recipes. I love pulling recipes from it to try that I know is a favorite of someone I know. This one I tried last summer and loved it. It is a wonderful alternative to chips and salsa.

1 can whole kernel corn
1 can black eyed peas
1 can black beans
(drain all throughly)

4 roma tomatoes
1 large green pepper
green onions

Chop and add to first three ingredients. Add in 1 bottle of Creamy Italian salad dressing. Mix everything together. Let set overnight for best flavor. Serve with tortilla chips.
