Italian Nachos
Last weekend I had a great “away trip” with my church choir. We took a bus to Cleveland to support one of our young ministers who was going up there to preach at his home church. He’s incredibly talented and we all love him to death so it was worth the 9 or 10 hours we spent on ...
Spicy Tomato Jam
Learning to can has been on my to-do list for years so last year I took a class at Viking’s Cooking school. It was at the end of the Tennessee growing season so there wasn’t much good left to can. I’ve been holding onto all of my canning recipes from class for the growing season to start. ...

Touch Down Taco Dip
This is my version of a recipe I made frequently during my stint as a Pampered Chef consultant. I always got raves on this recipe and it’s super simple to make. This recipe is very flexible. I’ve used fresh pico de gallo in lieu of the diced tomatoes and it adds alot of flavor. Also ...
