This delicious Green Gazpacho is creamy from avocados and full of fresh, healthy veggies. It couldn’t be easier to make and perfect for those days when you want something light, cool and refreshing to eat! My son has been home visiting for a couple weeks now.

Oh pasta and cheese, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways… Baked in a casserole dish like this Mexican Spaghetti Bake is sure to please! Don’t you just love it when you can throw together a yummy casserole with pantry staples? It’s such a great way to use up items that may…
Pasta with Amatriciana Sauce
Pasta with Amatriciana Sauce is a simple, satisfying Italian dish that goes together in a snap! Recently, the folks who make Pomi tomatoes sent me a couple of boxes of their tomatoes to try.
