Well, we’ve gone and done it and bought the farm of our dreams! The horses are right out back now, so it’s a lot easier to cook. Back to recipes. It seems fitting that the first one I’m adding to the site is a cake we served at our housewarming party. This is a 10+ year old Cooking Light recipe that always goes over well. It is great for Thanksgiving, or any other fall occasion. It also makes a great coffee cake!
This was a cute pumpkin-shaped cake we had at this year’s Halloween party. A lot of steps, but not particularly difficult…just required two cakes baked in bundt pans. This would also be fun for Thanksgiving. This came from Shugary Sweets.
This was a really fun and tasty way to get some fish in – I’m pretty bad about remembering to defrost it and cook it, even though we both love it! This was a Cooking Light recipe, I used Mahi for the fish, and we had it with brussels sprouts.
My favorite baked ziti recipe – easy and always awesome. I usually just make it with ground beef and season a lot, but it would also work with ground turkey or sausage, as the original recipe (from Smitten Kitchen) suggests. We’ve also done this with shirataki and liked it just as much. 🙂
Quick and easy homemade enchilada sauce that really improves over store bought. This is from Gimme Some Oven. I used this in enchilada soup, and it would also dress up any enchilada or even taco dish. This is a mild red sauce.
Any time these appear on a cookie tray, I have to restrain myself from eating all of them. So I decided to go ahead and make them myself this year – definitely will be a regular addition in the cookie tins. This is from Joy of Baking.
This may be one of my favorite cookies I’ve ever done – but I love all things mint. Definitely a popular one in this year’s cookie tins.
