In this recipe I'm unveiling one of my little secrets: I love to add a cup or so of pumpkin puree to soups and strews. It adds an amazing richness to the broth and makes it creamy without adding milk or cream. It also means we're packing in some extra nutrients from vitamin-rich pumpkin. Yes please! Pumpkin and pork stew is similar to beef stew with your standard ingredients: meat, potatoes, carrots, and onions. But the addition of the pumpkin to the broth takes this to the next level.

Chicken Parmesan Gnocchi Bake
My wonderful husband of 5+ years, Kevin, has two favorite foods that I make: chicken fajita burritos, which we nickname "farritos," and chicken parmesan. There's a reason that these are his two favorite dishes. When we first met, we were brand new Military Police officers. Young second lieutenants who were training at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, which is basically the middle of nowhere. Kevin has a lot of skills, but cooking isn't one of them. He's a grill master, but in a kitchen with a stove ... continue reading...
Orange Chocolate Chip Scones

I've been brainstorming new ways to use winter citrus since I had to bid farewell to summer berries. Thankfully, orange is ... continue reading...
Sweet Potato, Cheddar, and Spinach Quiche
Quiche might be one of my all-time favorite meals. I remember after Easter every year, my mom would make a quick with leftover ham and asparagus and I would love having it as a simple dinner. Of course I love quick for breakfast too, but it's also one of my favorite easy dinners with a side salad. When I tested this recipe, I knew that it was up to the kids and I to finish it since Kevin doesn't like sweet potatoes. Thankfully I had nothing to fear because our one year old, Easton, was devouring ... continue reading...
Crock Pot French Onion Soup
Yes, you read that correctly, French onion soup in the crock pot! French onion soup is one of my absolute favorite soups, but to bring out maximum flavor, you really need some time for the onions to caramelize and for the soup to come together. Sounds like a task for one of my favorite appliances, the Crock Pot! I mentioned on the blog a while ago that I'm a forever customer of Crock Pot due to their amazing customer service. Not long after Easton was born and I was back in the kitchen, a ... continue reading...
