Tater Tot Casserole is similar to Shepherd’s Pie, but with tater tots instead of mashed potatoes. The sauce also has a cream base instead of a tomato base. I like this version because it does not call for a can of “cream of” soup (which I rarely buy or have on hand).

Mediterranean Tuna Noodle Casserole
With fish being a popular menu choice at this time of the year, I thought it would be fun to bring this recipe to the front again. I would like to note that it also freezes quite well! Tuna and noodle casserole is one of those dishes that can be… let’s face it……
Peanut Butter & Chocolate Pie
It’s pretty hard to top the combination of peanut butter and chocolate in my book. This Peanut Butter & Chocolate Pie is so rich and delicious, and it is a great dessert to serve to guests. There’s a thin pure chocolate layer topped with a creamy peanut butter filling, and to top it…
Vanilla Bean Custard Pie
If you are a fan of “old fashioned” desserts, you are in for a treat with this Vanilla Bean Custard Pie. My husband happens to love custard pies, and this one is no exception. If you don’t have real vanilla beans, you can use pure vanilla extract. It will still be delicious!

It’s that time of year… Time for Pumpkin Everything! Bake up a couple of these subtly spiced loaves, drizzle with glaze, and share with your family and friends! They will be so happy you did.

Sandhill Plum Jelly
Have you heard of a sandhill plum? These plums are small (about the size of cherries or large marbles), grow wild in some parts of the midwest, and are super sour. Just about the only thing I know to do with them is make jelly! It so happens that Sandhill Plum Jelly is…
Pear-Berry Crisp Pie
One of my favorite summer desserts is a Mixed Berry Crumble Tart. The only thing is, I don’t grow any of those fruits here on our acreage, so I don’t get to make it as often as I would like. About this time of year, though, we have an abundance of pears from…
Classic Egg Salad
Egg Salad sandwiches don’t have to be boring. This egg salad adds the zip of hot pepper sauce. Even if you’re not the biggest fan of hot pepper sauce, just a few shakes is enough to bring out lots of flavor. My favorite way to enjoy these sandwiches is alongside a bunch of…
