Squash was on sale a week ago (well it’s usually on sale throughout the summer), so I decided to make a squash casserole since I haven’t had one in awhile. I have been using this recipe for about 7 years. It is quick and simple and would be great to take a summer get together….

Cheesy Italian Meatballs
I can’t remember the last time that I made homemade meatballs. I was trying to think of what I could make for dinner this past Sunday and had almost all of the ingredients for this recipe. It was quick too, as I try not to spend as much time in the kitchen since it is…

Pork Chops with Lemon and Capers
This entree has numerous ingredients, but the end result tastes so good. I was searching around for recipes that I could use some excess lemons with and stumbled across this one on my Whole Foods iPhone app. I made some big adjustments so I wouldn’t need to go to the grocery store. I served the…
