I'm a southern gal with a passion for cooking and baking from scratch, the old fashioned way!
Happy Halloween, dear readers! Halloween is a sure sign that fall has arrived, and nothing is better than a hot, hearty crock pot meal on a chilly fall day. I tend to crave chili, stew, and pot roast at this time of year. Here is a pretty traditional pot roast recipe that I think you and your family will enjoy. Happy fall!
We’re nearing the end of peach season in the south, a bittersweet time of year for peach lovers like myself. Bitter because I dread the peach-less months of the year that loom ahead, but sweet because I try to fit peaches into nearly every meal of the day in order to savor the peak of their juicy freshness.
Here is a delicious way to add some fresh peaches into your dinner menu. The grilled swordfish pairs perfectly with this sweet and tangy salsa. Add some fresh diced jalapeno if you are looking for some heat with your sweet!
Every year, we grow vegetables in our garden over the summer. It feels so good to get out there and dig in the dirt every spring, and it is so rewarding when you are able to make dinner entirely of vegetables picked from your own garden! Recent years have been difficult for our garden, as Georgia underwent a severe drought. Luckily, the drought is over (for now), and this summer has been one of the wettest we have had in many years! What did this mean for our garden? An abundance of veggies!
Okay, so I know I didn’t manage to snap a very good photo of this dish, but it was one of the BEST meals hubby and I have made in a long time!! So I just had to share it with you. The flavors and techniques are so simple and straightforward, but the results are extraordinary. I hope you’ll give it a try!
So it’s that time of year again. Despite the snow that is falling here in North Georgia today, spring is just around the corner. Soon we’ll be doffing our sweaters and opting for tank tops and flip flops. So maybe it’s time to watch what we’re eating so that we can be fit and trim for the warm months!
Here is a healthy meal that doesn’t feel, taste, or look healthy at all. It’s colorful and meaty and full of flavor. The spicy heat of the fish contrasts perfectly with the cool, creamy avocado salad. And the leftovers make great fixings for a taco night!
