I was trying to clean out the fridge the other week and found a bunch of different color peppers that we were supposed to make fajitas with, but I had forgotten about them and didn't have the rest of the ingredients. So, I improvised with some remaining ingredients in the fridge and came up with a new stuffed pepper recipe for our family--and I tell you--these Italian Stuffed Peppers are super delicious! Even my pickiest eater (seriously the pickiest!) didn't eat the pepper but he ... View the Post

I even introduced my host family when I was a foreign exchange student in France in college and I think we made them three ... View the Post

We usually end up doubling this recipe and it makes enough for lots of snacks and desserts for lunches. And they are usually ... View the Post

I am hoping by the time they leave the house that they can make more than just ramen and spaghetti--so we have been looking at and making lots of new recipes lately. This apple spice dump cake is one of those recipes that we tried when we ran out of pumpkin while trying to make a Sunday afternoon treat, so we substituted applesauce and it turned out delicious! It's going to be added to our fall recipes for sure! The recipe ... View the Post
