Homemade Pretzel Dogs are always a HUGE hit with my kids! Store bought pretzel dogs don’t even compare to this homemade version. The pretzel is super soft with delicious buttery flavor. Wrap it around a hot dog and you have a pretzel dog that nobody can resist!
Soft Homemade Pretzels are my weakness! These pretzels are super soft and chewy. They are just as good, if not better than the mall pretzels. They are actually pretty simple to make too. Which makes them that much better. You don’t want miss out on these delicious pretzels!
I love a big bowl of Peaches and Cream! Because I only get to enjoy peaches and cream in September, I decided to whip up a bowl of Strawberries and Cream.
Strawberries are in full swing now. Why not take advantage of this luscious fruit while we can. With only a few minutes of prep work, you will be in heaven after one bite!
The best way to enjoy this dish is in the company of your closest friends and family. This way, hopefully they won’t judge you when you feel the need to lick your bowl clean. Yes, it is that good!
With love from my kitchen to yours,

Strawberries and Cream
4 cups of strawberries, sliced
1 cup of whipping cream or half and half
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp. of vanilla
Instructions
1. Wash the strawberries. Cut off the stems of the strawberries and throw the stems away. Slice the strawberries and put them in a bowl. Sprinkle the sugar over the top of the strawberries and let them sit for 5 minutes. Gently toss the strawberries.
2. Add and mix the whipping cream or half and half and vanilla with the strawberries and chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours. I like my strawberries and cream best after they have been refrigerated over night.

Chocolate Chips, Cookies, Cream Cheese
Your family is going to think that you are the cookie whispier. These Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Cookies are so thick, soft, and moist. Seriously, what more can you what in a cookie?
I bought these chairs about four or five years ago off of KSL (a local online classified site) for $50 for the set. They were originally a dark brown stain with a tan microfiber cushion. I have always loved how comfortable and wide the cushions are. Those who know me know that I don’t stick with the same furniture for very long. I either sell it and get something new (new to me) and refinish it. I blame this on my mom. She is always constantly changing out her décor and furniture.
I love light and refreshing salads in the summer. When it’s hot outside and you don’t want to heat up the kitchen to make a side dish, just throw this baby together.
I love this Homemade Red Enchilada Sauce! I included the original recipe from Home Cooking Memories in my 23 Cinco de Mayo Side Dish and Desserts post a few weeks ago. I have been wanting to try it ever since. Let me just say that Brandie is brilliant!
I made these enchiladas last night and they are out of this world! I love how easy the enchilada sauce is to make. I always thought that it would be this crazy long process to make homemade red enchilada sauce. So I have never attempted it until now.
I have been looking for a good Mexican Rice recipe for a long time. I found this recipe in my husband’s family cookbook. This recipe is from his cousin Andrea. I will be eternally grateful to Andrea for this amazing recipe. It is everything I have ever wanted in Mexican Rice and more!
Italian Lemon Pound Cake is the only lemon cake recipe you will ever need! You are going to love the super moist texture and the rich citrus flavor.
Grilled Ham and Pineapple Teriyaki Kabobs are so easy to whip out. It is the perfect meal for those days when you need to hurry and get dinner on the table before you are off to your next activity. You don’t even have to heat up your house. There is just something about grilled food that makes the flavor pop even more.
