Cottage Cheese Salad is one of Ryan’s favorite treats.
I learned it from his Mama!
Mix a Can of crushed pineapple, CoolWhip, Cottage Cheese and a box of jello (any flavor) together,
and eat up!
It’s good. Trust me.
Squash and Lasagna Mix Up
As I have told you before, Ryan and I have had to get pretty creative with squash and zucchini this year because we have a ton.
Here is one of my inventions:
I am going to call it the “Squash and Lasagna Mix Up.”
I boiled some squash (I used 2 really large ones) for a few [...]
Easy Blackberry Cobbler
We now have lots and lots of blackberries on top of the squash, cucumbers and tomatoes!
This is my favorite way to eat them, other than straight off the vine, of course.

Fresh Blackberries
Flour, Sugar, Milk and Butter
I doubled the recipe so I used 1 quart of fresh blackberries, 2 cups of flour, [...]

Stuffed Peppers and Squash

I did not use a recipe, but I ‘m going to try to create one [...]

The simplest most delicious way to cook and eat fresh green beans!

Baby red potatoes:

Bring the ham hock and broth [...]
Top of the World Restaurant
I think that having dinner at the Stratosphere Top of the World restaurant could be my favorite experience from our trip to Las Vegas. Not only was the food wonderful, but the experience is amazing.
We arrived at the Stratosphere a few minutes late for our reservation, because we started walking the wrong way when [...]
Grilled Veggies
Grilled Vegetables are awesome!
Here’s what to do, it’s very simple.

Put the Veggies in a ziplock bag with Italian dressing.
Shake it up, making sure all of the veggies are coated with with dressing, let them marinate for 30 minutes, then put them [...]
