Queso is a sacred dip where I’m from (Texas born and bred). Some people like to throw velveeta and rotel together in a crockpot and call it queso, but no mam! I’ve seen an abundance of queso recipes through the years and have continued to tweek mine till I got it just right and this is it.

I shared last month that I’ve been prepping Mason Jar Salads to eat while I’m waiting in car line to pick Jack up in the afternoons. I’m calling this one Fiesta Salad in a Jar.

A friend of mine made a version of this a few weeks ago and I knew I had to recreate it (and add my own spin)! Even better, is that everything is made in one pan, so clean up is a SNAP!

Most days I eat lunch in the school pick up line while I wait for Jack to get out of school. It’s super easy to drive through somewhere on the way to his school, but not always the healthiest.

This recipe is a favorite of my boys. It’s hearty, easy to make and can also be frozen. I like to pair it with an antipasto salad and garlic bread for a great weeknight dinner!

I’m always scouring Pinterest for recipe ideas. Alot of the time, I’ll see one thing and think, “Oh! I can combine that with this and make something new!”

I could eat a baked potato every day. One of my favorite combos is a baked potato and salad. It’s super easy to cook a baked potato in the microwave, BUT if you want a crispy potato skin with the fluffiest potato inside you’ve ever tasted, then you need to follow this recipe!

Nothing says winter comfort food to me like taco soup. It’s one of those soups that is super filling with tons of protein, has just enough spice and is even better the next day!

Baked Chicken Tacos are an easy weeknight meal that the whole family will love.

Making Cocoa Bombs is not for the faint of heart. It’s not difficult, but it is time consuming. Maybe that’s why I made these before Christmas and am just now blogging about them.

As soon as I feel that tickle in my throat like a cold is coming on, I start drinking this tea. The hot lemonade and honey is super soothing on the throat.

Cheeseburger Potato Soup is a winter staple in my house, I make it at least once a week.

One of my favorite Christmas traditions is making Christmas Crack for neighbors, the UPS man and the Post Office. We’ve had lots of neighbors come and go over

This is a family favorite and definitely easy to make and more importantly….easy to clean up!
