Philly Cheese Steak Pizza {An Ohioan’s Perspective that is}

On my weekly trip to the store I got the ingredients to make Philly Cheese Steak sandwiches.  Sounds, great right?  Well… I forgot the hoagie rolls and I wasn’t about to put the cheesy deliciousness in between two piece of white bread and there was […]

45-Minute Baby Back Ribs {Instant Pot}

For those of you in the pressure cooker (I own an Instant Pot) world, you have got to try out these baby back ribs (full slab) that are done in 45 minutes (I’m accounting for the NPR -natural pressure release).  I have never once boiled or […]

Banana Nut Chocolate Chip Bread

Banana Nut Chocolate Chip Bread

Banana nut bread really needs no introduction and I’m sure you don’t really need to hear me talk about. I have been making banana bread for years.  I always buy bananas (even with a toddler) and one or two get eaten and then they turn […]

Someone in my family, and it’s usually me, makes this chipped beef and horseradish cheese ball for a family gathering.  I usually have to make a double recipe because if my husband sees me make this he feels entitled to it.  So I put him […]

Dill-Ranch Oyster Crackers (a simple piece of my childhood)

These Dill-Ranch Oyster Crackers bring back so many memories of my childhood at my grandma’s house especially at Christmas time.  It’s funny that I don’t remember much of my childhood until something like this snack pops up.  Each Christmas, Grandma would have a bowl of […]

French Dipped Sandwiches with Pressure Cooker

French Dipped Sandwiches with Pressure Cooker

I have had French Dipped Sandwiches often and they  have always been good but when I made these in my Instant Pot they were AMAZING. The meat was so tender and juicy that is was a win. Soggy bread has always been a negative for […]
