The BEST slow cooker green beans you’ll ever have! Loaded with onions and bacon, they are packed full of flavor and so easy to make. Just set them and forget them until dinner time! Growing up, my mom always grew a large vegetable garden that would feed us through the summer months. One of the …
A healthier, low sodium version of everyone’s favorite Vegetable Beef soup. You can make this on the stove top or in a slow cooker. I love eating soups in the Winter time. Unfortunately for me, we haven’t seen much of “Winter” here in South Texas. With most of our daily highs in the 70’s-80’s, it …
A few weeks ago, I experienced life as a single woman. My husband went out of town on business, and I was alone for an entire week. Some women would LOVE this, but I did not. My husband and I go everywhere together, so for him to be experiencing a new state and city, without …
Last week I got a steal of a deal at H-E-B on chicken legs. Oh, the things adults get excited about. Ok, so I hardly ever cook with chicken legs. Most of the time I use chicken breasts, and occasionally, I’ll use chicken thighs. But seriously, I couldn’t pass up this deal and I figure …

I told you guys last week how I spent all day Saturday real food freezer cooking. I also told you that I would give you the details on how I did it and what I made. I was inspired to do this little project not only because I had been wanting to try my hand …
The other day I shared our Meal Plan for Week 2 with you for our 30 Days of Real Food Challenge. You may have noticed that we are eating Spaghetti–again–this week. Since it’s easy to put together, and my hubby is really good at making it, I will usually have him make that for …
Today’s “I Made if From Pinterest” was actually our Easter dinner! The husband–I really should come up with a better nickname– worked all day, so even though it was a holiday, I didn’t want to go to much trouble for dinner. Actually, I didn’t want to go into ANY trouble for dinner–I wanted to use …
My husband and I were so excited for these ribs I made in the slow cooker tonight–the smell in the house was AMAZING! And the best part is, they were SO easy to make and the meat literally falls off the bone! We don’t usually eat pork often, but since we got a TON of …
