Here's what's on my menu this week and as always, you can follow me on Pinterest for ideas all week long.

This Week In Dinner: Putting My Slowcooker To Use All Week

I had been doing a great job with menu planning earlier this year, but discovering my daughter's multiple food allergies (wheat, soy, and dairy) took away the fun in it. Now I'm scouring labels, making everything from scratch and trying desperately to get my budget back under control after transitioning to many gluten-free products (which aren't cheap!). But now it's a little better. My kids … [Continue reading...]

Ultimate Pumpkin Pie Waffles – Improved Recipe

Earlier this year I made pumpkin pie waffles for the first time and thought they were delicious. Well, I've been tinkering with the recipe and now have a recipe that beats the pants off my first one.

The … [Continue reading...]

{In The Kitchen} Pumpkin Pie Waffles

I'm a pretty simple woman. When my husband asked me what I wanted for my birthday, I said a waffle maker. I saw one at Walmart for $15 and figured, why not? My son loves waffles and the frozen ones taste like cardboard. I was playing around in the kitchen this past weekend and came up with this recipe for pumpkin pie waffles. I had a can of pumpkin puree in the cabinet that I had to … [Continue reading...]

{In The Kitchen} Italian Turkey Meatballs

I found this recipe on Pinterest and had to try it. I made it gluten-free for my daughter, but even if you're not avoiding gluten, this will be delicious. My batch did not photograph well, so I'm going to use Home Cooking Memories' photo in place of the blurry, cheesy looking picture I took. *sigh* Sometimes iPhone photography is not your best friend. Anyway, onto the recipe! Ingredients 1 … [Continue reading...]
