Campfire Pies Campfire Pies

There’s nothing like sitting around the campfire, relaxing, while you catch up with friends and reconnect with your family.   Watching the flames, talking, and cooking your favorite campfire foods over the hot coals is a great way to spend an evening.  Campfire Pies is one of my favorite foods to prepare over the coals.  You can choose the... [Read more of this review]


Giant Chocolate Chunk Cupcake Giant Chocolate Chunk Cupcake

I’ve made ‘Giant Cupcakes’ many times and they are always a hit.  I made this one for a small church gathering and thought I’d share it with you.

A little... [Read more of this review]

Mama’s Barbecue Rub What you will need: ½ cup coarse salt ½ cup... [Read more of this review]

This is one of my favorite combinations, a Strawberry-Banana Parfait. My littlest... [Read more of this review]


Mama’s Rigatoni with Sausage and Vegetables Mama’s Rigatoni with Sausage and Vegetables

This is a fast and easy dish for when you are in a hurry.  I had 2 pounds of ground pork in the fridge that needed a home.  I put it in to a large bowl and mixed in some sea salt (1 teaspoon), ground black pepper (1/2 teaspoon) and rubbed sage (1 tablespoon).  This makes a simple, tasty pork sausage. I then split the sausage in to 2- 1 pound portions. ... [Read more of this review]
