Lemon Lime Cake with Fresh Lime Whipped Cream. This normally isn’t my kind of thing. Fruit for dessert? What is that all about? I usually go for something much more rich. Something rot-your-teeth rich, to be exact. But after eating this cake, I’m sold on fruit for dessert. Since it has the word “fresh” in it, I’m pretending it’s healthy. This cake is definitely on the “lighter” side of decadence. It is sweet but not too sweet, and tastes… refreshing. In fact, for the perfect breakfast I recommend two slices.

Italian Lasagna (with meat) My FIL absolutely loves my lasagna. I wish that I could take credit for putting it together, but that would be a lie. many years ago I had followed the recipe on the back of the Creamette lasagna box and was sold. However, each time I wanted to make it, I just looked on the back of the box, always throwing the one away before it. Well one day I was in the grocery store picking up the noodles. I looked on the back of the box (I always bought the groceries I needed from the recipe as well) and it had VEGETABLE lasagna on the back. WHAT?! Oh no! I checked almost every box on the grocery store shelf, but alas, no Italian Lasagna recipe. So I hoped and prayed that I still had a box in the cabinet. This is the best lasagna recipe ever. :) Italian Lasagna This recipe is now available for download on Kindle or you can get 6 recipes (5 baked pasta recipes and my favorite regular pasta recipe of all time as a bonus) in my new ebook series, Bite Size Ebooks.

Italian Lasagna (with meat) Ingredients. Moist treacle gingerbread. Just Brownies. As a food blogger in constant search of a new recipe to invent and make your own, you often run the risk of overloading your senses. The need to conquer new ingredients often makes life in the kitchen and in your belly a little bit complicated, a little bit chaotic. When things keep adding on to your life, the only way to restore order is to start subtracting. I find this mantra extremely wise and useful, not just in my kitchen but in every walk of my life. Earlier this week, my heart wished for a slice of brownie. Now I have baked brownies before. A lot ofdifferent brownies. And they made me wonder Why?

Kristin Eldridge » Pulled Pork with Homemade BBQ Sauce [In the Kitchen] After church on Sunday everyone is hungry and lunch usually goes something like quesadillas or turkey sandwiches. What is the quickest thing I can throw together!?! Unless I can manage to put something in the crock pot before we leave. This requires a. thinking ahead, b. pulling myself together to look presentable before heading out the door and c. making sure my children have the essentials done like umm, hair combed, teeth brushed, a pair of shoes on, what else am I missing? Soooo, the crock pot thing doesn’t always happen. This last Sunday I thought ahead. Yeah, me! I got myself and the kids ready to go…AND put a big hunk of meat into the crock pot. Anyway, on to the meal.

When you arrive home after a few hours, the meat will be in lovely shreds that you need to sauce and add to a bun. This makes a LOT of sauce. My sandwiches were more like sliders because I used Hawaiian rolls, but you can serve the pulled pork on regular sized buns too.
