Perfect Chocolate Cookies

June 4, 2013 By: Lisa5 Comments

These cookies are fan- tastic!  And my oldest son is becoming the best cookie baker on the planet.  He made these the other day.  Some little girl is going to be very lucky one day to get him:)  I mean if a man can make a perfect cookie, he is the perfect catch.  Jed's had a lot of practice over the last 6 months.  He was the main cookie maker at Great Harvest when we had a 28,000 cookie order during the month of Dec.   And he just made 600 of ... ...continue reading

Chicken Tortilla Soup

May 31, 2013 By: Lisa4 Comments

Delish!  It's the only word to describe this tasty little soup.  It's been a little cooler and rainy at my house the last few days, and I wanted something warm, but light as well.  Can I just say this soup really is SOOOOO GOOD!  I love it!!  I made good use of a whole rotisserie chicken for this recipe.  I may just suggest that that is the way to go.   Real convenient, and quite easy too.  The base of the soup is a homemade stock, but really, ... ...continue reading

Chipotle Honey Grilled Corn

May 28, 2013 By: Lisa6 Comments

This recipe is from my brother Josh.  I do believe it's the first recipe courtesy of Joshua since starting this blog.  I've had a few from his lovely wife, but not him.  He's actually a great cook.  A fun cook.  I'm talking Ceviche from Ecuador with popcorn.  Delish!  Josh found this recipe years ago in the pages of Sunset Magazine I believe, and it has been a hit at many a Bear Lake BBQ since.  It's super easy, but packs a lot of flavor.  I love ... ...continue reading

3 Cheese Au Gratin Potatoes

May 20, 2013 By: Lisa8 Comments

Call these potatoes whatever you like.  These tators come with many names.  As a kid we called them Rotten Potatoes, or Dutch Oven Potatoes and we absolutely loved them.  My mom made them with Velveeta, and bacon and they are still some of my favorite potatoes.  Don't let the fact that there are three cheeses in this recipe throw you.  It really was just a "clean out the fridge" kind of night, and I just happened to have 3 different types of ... ...continue reading

Thai Pasta Salad

May 6, 2013 By: Lisa3 Comments

I've posted this salad before, but it's such a good one, AND I took a better photo of it this time. It needed a repeat:)  It is such a standout salad at any gathering.  The colors are beautiful, and the salad is so fresh, and light.  You could turn it into a main dish item by adding the meat from a rotisserie chicken, or maybe some grilled shrimp over the top.  Yummy!!  Again, thanks to my sister-in-law Susan who introduced me to this salad.  And ... ...continue reading

Hollie’s Grape Salad

May 3, 2013 By: Lisa1 Comment

You know I have a sister.  She's fabulous!  We're only 18 months apart, but we are definitely different people.  We don't look much alike.  She's dark with dark brown eyes and resembles my mom's side of the family, and I'm lighter with blue eyes and look just like my dad's side of the family.  My kids say our voices sound alike, but that's about it.   We do like a lot of the same things.  If I read a good book it's usually because Hollie did.  If ... ...continue reading

Green Papaya Salad (Som Tum)

April 26, 2013 By: Lisa3 Comments

Sometimes I think about the things my family eats for dinner, and it makes me laugh.  I've said before how many times my mom has come to my home to babysit or stay for a while, and she always comments on the strange ingredients that have become staples at my house.  Fish sauce, 3-4 different curry pastes, black bean paste, sriracha sauce, pesto, and the list goes on and on and on.  I've had this discussion with James many times how the most ... ...continue reading

Breakfast Pizza

April 23, 2013 By: Lisa2 Comments

This was pure loveliness in every sense of the word.  Two of my favorite things rolled into one delicious dish!  Relatively quick, easy, and it produced tons of yummy sounds when served.  I'm sure there's many out there in the great big world who are big breakfast fans.  If you were to offer me a huge  surf and turf buffet or a glorious breakfast buffet, I bet you can tell which one I'd choose.  Breakfast for sure.  Easter Sunday for this little ... ...continue reading

No Bake Cheesecake

April 15, 2013 By: Lisa11 Comments

So I'll just put it out there in the great big world.  I really really really like No Bake Cheesecakes.  I like them better than the baked kind.  I probably shouldn't.  It's not very sophisticated, or gourmet, or refined.  It's just FLUFF!  Pure, luscious, simple, fluffiness in all its 3 ingredient simpleness.  And to be strictly honest, and transparent...........everyone who eats it loves it too.  You will never get more yummy sounds coming out ... ...continue reading

Lemon Poppy Seed Cake

April 8, 2013 By: Lisa6 Comments

Have you ever felt like you were chasing something elusive?  Something that maybe you just made up in your mind and it doesn't really exist?  I've been chasing this cake since I was 12.  That's a long time.  But with the Easter holiday just passed the quest for this cake came around again.  You see, most years when I was a child, my family would spend Easter in St. George Ut.  Granted this is the same location that gave me my intense dislike of ... ...continue reading
