Food, Wine, Family. Fun!
I recently picked up a pack of gnocchi at Lidl, but wasn't sure what I was going to make with tit. I had never had gnocchi and after trying this recipe, I'm not sure why I waited so long. This one-pot meal was so good and quick and was easy to make. In about 30… Continue reading White Bean Gnocchi
My family is loving all pickles lately and I have been seeing a lot of my fellow bloggers making a take on this pasta salad.

I love pasta ... my family, not so much. As we continue eating at home, I was looking for recipe to use a block of sweet Italian sausage I had for awhile in the freezer.

After looking through my pantry, I was saw… Continue reading Creamy Cajun Shrimp Pasta

Do you love lasagna? We love it too - it's probably one of my son's favorite foods and something he never complains about eating. We always end up with four empty plates at dinner. I wanted to change things up and make stuffed shells, but in place of my regular filling recipe, I used the ingredients… Continue reading Lasagna Stuffed Shells
This recipe has been on my "to make" list for a while now and I finally got to it! It was really good, despite my kids complaining about it. I think the Parmesan was a little too strong for them.
