This spinach stuffed pork chop recipe yields golden browned pork chops stuffed with a creamy and savory spinach and cheese filling that tastes a lot like spinach dip and is so, so good. My husband told me I shouldn’t add the recipe for these cheesy spinach stuffed pork chops to the blog. He said they are too fancy, too much work. Little does he know that these pork chops take all of about 20 minutes to throw together! I don’t…

 Creamy eggs, tender asparagus, ham, potatoes and cheese make a hearty breakfast dish that comes together in less than 30 minutes. This ham, asparagus, and potato frittata might sound fancy, but really I just had some odds and ends in my fridge that needed used up! And that, my friends, is the beauty of the frittata. You can have a few odds and ends and actually come up with something delicious that will feed your whole family.  Sidenote: We’ll call…

Rich and creamy, cheesy and hearty, this broccoli cheese soup is one of my tried and true favorite soup recipes. I don’t know about you, but sometimes I just have to take a break from the baking and the sweets! Last week I worked and worked on dessert recipes trying to decide what to make for a local charity auction and dinner. If you are a member of my baker’s group on Facebook (Let me pause here to say you…

All opinions are mine alone. #NaturallyCheesy #CollectiveBias Full of Kraft Natural Shredded Mexican Cheese and spicy jalapenos, this Jalapeno Popper dip packs a punch of flavor that your friends and family will love. It’s the perfect dip to help warm you up this winter. I used to host a family get-together every October. We’d have a big meal and let the kids paint pumpkins. We called it Octoberfest. Then…

This garlic cheese focaccia bread is light and tender. Soaked with butter, garlic, herbs and cheese, it’s perfect for sopping up extra marinara sauce or the tail ends of the soup in your bowl. Be careful with this recipe. Fair warning, if you make it once you’ll probably be hooked.  Oy vey. I’ve tried to write the post for this Garlic Cheese Focaccia bread recipe like 4 times, but nothing seems to be right. It’s been a weird week. Monday…

Bad news my friends, I had to disown my children. Yep, all 4 of em. We were talking about favorite foods the other day and I was telling them how I lived off pimento cheese sandwiches when I was little. None of them had ever had pimento cheese! I said,” Hold up, are you serious?” How was it possible that I’d never made them Grandma Fat’s pimento cheese spread? Well turns out I’d missed my window to introduce them to…

I love pepperoni, but I hate it on pizza. Is that weird? My husband tells me that’s weird. You know what I do love pepperoni in? Pasta salad, sandwiches, oh, and these divine little pepperoni and cheese puffs. Little bites of pepperoni with three cheeses that are perfect for dipping in pizza sauce. I have been snacking on, mmkay, scarfing down these things all week.  

Pillow soft inside, crispy, buttery and cheesy on the outside, these asiago cheese soft pretzels come together in 30 minutes. Goodness gracious. I’ve spent this whole week a day behind. I thought yesterday was Wednesday, but I was so rudely roused from that delusion at bedtime, discovering that it was really Thursday. And here I was feeling so proud because I’d felt like I’d gotten so much accomplished. Do you ever have weeks like those?   Throughout the summer, I…

Living in the rural midwest, I can’t say that we have a lot of authentic Mexican food. Now I don’t know, I’ve never been to Mexico so I can’t say that I’m the best judge there ever was. But according to all the southwestern transplants that end up around here our Mexican food scene is kind of…limited, pathetic, sad. Kind of wah-wah. My favorite Mexican dish of all time is chile rellenos. Every time I go to a new Mexican…
