Pumpkin Fondue
I did a guest post for October Unprocessed over at Eating Rules! The photo above is of a dreamy, smooth Pumpkin Fondue that is packed with all kinds of goodness. It also taste FAR more evil that it truly is! Take a moment to take a look!
Bacon and Egg Breakfast Casserole
I love a good casserole. Really, what’s not to love? They are, with a few exceptions, easy to prepare, they can be made up in advance, and they are comforting. When the weather turns chilly there is nothing I like better than a cozy casserole. So, one morning a few days ago it was just a little chilly. Not co but the wind had a little bite. Obviously it was time to make a casserole! While perusing a casserole cookbook,...

If you are going to feed me salad there are a few requirements that must be met (not that I am difficult to live with). First, it has to be hearty. Steak, chicken, eggs, or even beans are a must on a salad because I need protein to keep...
