Who doesn’t love mini cupcakes? I know they have always been a favorite of mine, and these mini Easter cupcakes don’t disappoint. There are so many adorable designs for Spring and Easter cupcakes and I decided to go with a simple grass technique and some Easter candies for my contribution to Easter lunch. I made […]

Resurrection Rolls for Easter
These resurrection rolls are a tasty way to remember the Easter story. I made these a few years ago for Easter lunch and everyone loved them, then I told them what they meant and they loved them even more. It is a very simple recipe all you need is marshmallows, crescent rolls, cinnamon sugar and […]
Personal Beef Wellington
This year for his birthday Hubby asked me to make him beef wellington and a twice baked potato, and what kind of wife would I be if I said no. I had made it a couple times before but it had been years ago. I started looking at all the different Beef Wellington recipes and […]
Tuxedo Chocolate Covered Strawberries.
These chocolate covered strawberries give the look of class with much less effort than you would expect. The tuxedo effect is given by multiple chocolate layers on the strawberry. I have never been a strawberry fan until very recently. I remember a time when I was younger that I was served a big plate of […]
THM Fuel Cycle Review
Last week I tried my second fuel cycle while being on the THM plan. I have talked a little about the plan before here. I want to start out by saying that Trim Healthy Mama doesn’t feel like a diet or very restrictive 90% of the time, but on the fuel cycle it feels like […]

French Onion Soup
Hubby discovered that he really enjoyed French Onion soup while we were on the cruise. My dad has always loved the one he can get at Outback and the best ever at Mermaids in Fayetteville. During my Stocks and Soups class in Culinary School we made this and I knew he would love it. I […]
Roasted Butternut Squash Soup
I love summer so much, but it has a lack of some foods that I love. Soups, stews and chilis are some that I miss the most in those hot months. Thankfully it is just about the right temperature to eat them again. Fall started last week so even though it’s a bit warm still […]
