Christmas Chocolate Truffles

I made some of these simple truffles with my daughter this pas weekend. We had a blast making them and rolled them in cocoa powder, sprinkles, chopped nuts etc. They are pretty and colorful, not to mention very tasty. They’ll make a nice addition to your Christmas cookies and desserts. A small container of these […]

Pumpkin Bars

My daughter’s Christmas party is later this coming week. I’ve been thinking about what to make to send in and have come up with these yummy pumpkin bars. They’re tasty, festive and not all that bad for you. Plus it’s easy to cut them into smaller or larger squares depending on how many people you’re […]

Christmas Morning Casserole

A few days ago I shared a Fritatta recipe with you that I was thinking of making Christmas morning. I’m considering changing my mind and making up a breakfast casserole the night before instead. I’m thinking it can bake up while we start to open presents in the morning. How about you? Any special breakfast […]

Christmas Sausage Cheese Balls

I remember the first time I made these. I had just gotten married and we were invited to a holiday get-together with some friends. I wanted to bring a little snack and my mother-in-law come up with the idea to make these. She showed me how and they’ve been a holiday staple around here ever […]

Christmas Morning Frittata

With young children in the house, you don’t usually get much of a Christmas morning breakfast. Hubby and I usually just grab a cup of coffee and munch on a few cookies while we open presents. Once things have settled down a bit, I make a big frittata that we have as a late breakfast, […]

Spiced Pineapple Pork

If you’re getting tired of having the same old ham or turkey for Christmas Dinner, or are looking for something simple but impressive for a Holiday party, give this spiced pineapple pork a try. The tenderloin is always nice and tender and the fruit and spices add a lot of extra flavor. Of course this […]

Holiday Sausages in Homemade Barbecue Sauce

I’m sure you’ve come across a variation of this recipe or tasted something similar at a potluck. This little smoked sausages in barbecue sauce make a perfect holiday treat. You can serve them right away, or pour everything into a slow cooker to keep warm. Either way they are very delicious and always a crowd […]

Pumpkin and Leek Soup

I’ve made potato and leak soup for years but thought I’d try making it with pumpkin instead. I don’t cook very much with it, except in the weeks before and after Thanksgiving. I guess just seeing pumpkins everywhere inspires me to cook with them. The leak in this soup adds just enough mild “oniony” flavor […]
