20 Tasty Beef Recipes

Hey there, this was posted on May 9, 2013 by Michelle

As I will tell you a couple of times today my husband is a meat and potatoes man, specifically red meat.

I mean he has no problems cooking cheeseburgers and a delicious steak but anything needing more steps than two just isn't going to happen. While I love to cook and am constantly adding recipes to my arsenal it can get a bit mundane in our house. It seems we eat a ton of tacos, … [Read more...]

24 Awesome Crock Pot Recipes

Hey there, this was posted on April 11, 2013 by Michelle

Summer will be here before you know it and for me that means my desire for cooking goes down.
