As fall has hit the PNW I’m craving simple but warm meals. I had saved this recipe on Pinterest a while back but had yet to try it. So glad I remembered it because it’s a winner winner but not a chicken dinner! The recipe says to cook the chuck roast cubes for 3-4 hours…

Pork Chops and Apples
One of my favorite combinations is pork chops and applesauce. For those of you who are old enough to remember, it also is fun to say that “pork chops and applesauce,” like Peter Brady did ;). Kathryn Brunner pinned this recipe on Pinterest last week and it just sounded so perfect; I had to try…
Guinness French Dip Sandwiches
How can you go wrong with these ingredients? I love trying new recipes…I saw this Baked by Rachel recipe yesterday and just knew I had to give it a try. I love a good French Dip and the addition of Guinness to this recipe intrigued me. I followed the recipe to a tea and I…
Beef Stroganoff Soup
Made this yummy soup last night. If you like beef stroganoff…you’ll love this!! I substituted baby bellas because my local grocery didn’t have a great selection of fresh mushrooms.

The one variation I made was to use one of my grill baskets and cook the sliced peppers and onions on my BBQ. I have two baskets; one is sloped with high sides and…
Elaine’s Taco Soup
This week’s post is an original recipe. I probably started with someone else’s recipe a few years back but over time this has become my own :). You really can’t mess this one up! It’s a lot of can opening, dumping, and adding seasonings…then just letting the crockpot do it’s magic. Easy peasy. Although the…
cashew chicken
I‘m in love with my crockpot! For the longest time I’ve wanted to create a blog where I could keep track of my favorites along with any variations or changes I wanted to remember. I pin ideas all of the time on Pinterest but needed a way to make notations or share easily with friends…
