$$ Frugal Friday – Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza
Tara on Aug 25th 2011
I debated wheather to let this post stand alone as a regular, or include it as a Frugal Friday post. Now I know you can drop by Little Ceaser’s on Friday evening and pick up a cheap premade pizza. And there are times when we all have to do so. However, the males around here […]
Tracy’s Texas Caviar
Tara on Jul 11th 2011
The first time I ever had Texas Caviar was on a camp trip to the lake. My friend Tracy made this and shared not only the dish, but also the recipe. And I am so glad she did. If you can open cans, squirt dressing, and chop cilantro – you can have a winning recipe […]

Cheese Dreams
Tara on Dec 14th 2009
Here’s another recipe from my mother-in-law. I don’t think I’ve had any other treats similar to these. They are fantastic and easy to make. Although Cheese Dreams compliment many soups and chili when served in place of crackers, they are delicious by themselves. They make terrific gifts too, when wrapped in clear bags and tied […]
Salsa
Tara on Aug 4th 2009
This is a recipe I got from a good friend whose family resides in Utah. So it is an authentic western dish. Salsa is a versatile condiment and a staple for cooking around here. We love it and have found many ways to use salsa. I’ve made western dressing by adding equal portions of salsa […]
Camping Dip
Tara on May 6th 2009
When dear hubby and I were dating, his mother would make this unique sandwich spread. I think the first time I sampled her spread was when I accompanied them on a camping trip. My future mother-in-law would offer a variety of breads and crackers with her spread. Eventually I had to get the recipe from […]
Mango Salsa
Tara on Jan 28th 2009
My wonderful friend Karen introduced me to her Mango Salsa. I’d never heard of Mango Salsa and I must say – I’ve been missing out. I serve this along side the Chicken Quesadillas or on tacos or as a dip with corn chips. Yum! 2 15oz cans Del Monte Petite Diced Tomatoes with Mild Green […]

Game Day Guacamole
Tara on Jan 21st 2009
This past May our home school group took a cruise to Cozumel and Cancun. If you are ever near Cancun – spend a day at Nachi Cocum beach. The food there was incredible and our kiddos discovered fresh guacamole while visiting. I know there are many variations when making guacamole, but often the taste of […]
