I love a good, hearty tomato soup, especially this time of the year. I’ve seen so many good recipes for soups lately and had to give this one a go. This recipe has my favorite pasta, Tortellini; three cheese at that! It’s a smooth and creamy consistency with a delicious jolt of tomato tang and flare. Continue reading
Red Velvet Cake is one of my favorite cakes of all time. I even made red velvet cookies a few months back, and they were a real hit! This past Christmas I decided to bake a homemade Red Velvet Cake for the first time ever. The night before Christmas Eve I did my first run through of a recipe I’d found on Pinterest. Needless to say, it was a fail…for many different reasons. The main ones being that the recipe said to cook the cake on 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 35-40 minutes. This couldn’t have been more wrong! I should have skimmed a few other recipes, and compared (which I later did). Continue reading

I absolutely love seafood gumbo! I’m not a huge fan of the traditional tomato based gumbo, but I am of the seafood one.

I absolutely loved this gumbo! It was so savory and rich, that I ate on it for a week straight. This recipe makes a pot-full, so its great for serving for a large party of people. Its also good if you want to have a meal that will last you all week, because it will definitely give you a break from having to cook.
By far, this is one of my favorite soaps/stews I’ve ever prepared. Do you have any favorites? Go-tos that you like to serve for your family? – I would love to add to my repertoire, so let me hear it!
xxoo,
Savory, cheesy, and creamy! These are the three words that describe my Chicken Penne Alfredo. I had to share the recipe with you all, because it was just too good not to! Continue reading
If your from the South, odds are that you know what grits are…and that you love them as much as I do. Down here we eat them pretty much anytime, whether it be breakfast or dinner, although they are a traditional breakfast food. I thought I’d share my super quick and easy recipe for how I make my delicious and insatiable cheddar cheese grits. You only need a few ingredients and about 10 minutes. Continue reading
