This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Hidden Valley Ranch. The opinions and text are all mine. I was really excited when found out that my blog was selected to develop a recipe using one of the many Hidden Valley Ranch products. Immediately I called Bob to tell him the news and the conversation went something like this: ME: Hey - I was just selected to develop a recipe ... Read More Here...
Easy Chicken and Dumplings Being from the south you grown up on southern recipes like chicken and dumplings. It's been a while since I have made them so I started researching recipes and found nothing that sounded like my grandmother's chicken and dumpling. I see so many people cooking them in the slow cooker but I have yet to brave to that method and stick with what I know... stove top. But, ... Read More Here...
I love when potatoes are on sale as they are so versatile I can do so much with them. When they hit $.10 a pound I stock up and it's play time in the kitchen... for Bob! Most gnocchi recipes call for russet potatoes but we like to make ours with a sweeter potato... the Yukon Gold. Don't be intimated to make potato gnocchi as it is not as hard as it looks! Really... I am the gnocchi cook in the ... Read More Here...
We pulled the trigger and are going on another cruise this year --- yea! This time we will be hitting the sea on the Carnival Victory for five days with my family to celebrate a few birthdays. Since my family is new, I decided to post this packing list for a cruise to help them {and you}. I have seen some people waiting to embark with lots of large suitcases and see others with just one medium ... Read More Here...

When we lived in Virginia my garden had many a tomatillo plants. Here in Las Vegas we don't have the room to grow them as they love to grow wide and I never tried to cage them so not sure if it would work. Also, you cannot have just one tomatillo plant since they need to be with others to pollinate. Bob uses tomatillos often in his cooking, which they play the main character in mostly Mexican ...

I finally pulled myself out of a 3 week flu stupor to prepare a Mexican food dinner with a Chipotle burrito bowl recipe. Yes, around this home we eat a lot of Mexican, Italian, and Middle Eastern inspired dishes. Every once and a while we will toss in a curry or two to break up the mundane. What can I say? We are just huge fans of salsas, sauces, and mezes! Creating a copycat recipe for the ... Read More Here...

I LOVE bacon, red wine reduction, and blue cheese so you add some dates to that mix... bacon wrapped dates are a hit for me! I learned to love this dish from of my favorite hangout restaurants in town, Firefly in Las Vegas. Because I am lazy, I don't want to drive to satisfy my cravings so I make them at home. These little guys are crazy good and a hit at every party they are served. And don't ... Read More Here...
