(Un)Stuffed banana pepper soup

Creamy, cheesy, hot, and spicy (or mild, if you prefer) - this (un)stuffed banana pepper soup is a hearty and delicious way to enjoy the flavors of stuffed banana peppers.

Mixed berry pie

Mixed berry pie is bursting with summer berries and fresh flavors and is a perfect summer time dessert. Serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra delicious summer treat.

Turkey, spinach, and cheese flautas

Easy meals are what I'm all about right now. Flautas are a favorite of mine since I started making them a couple years ago. The filling choices are endless.

We've done beef filling similar to tacos, pinto beans and peppers, etc. But, these creamy turkey and spinach ones seem to be the winner. The filling is simple to make. Then all you have to do is roll them up and give them a quick bake. 

Perfect for a weeknight dinner and they are sure to be popular in your house, too. Serve these falutas with a side of rice or beans or even some chips and salsa. We like to dip these flautas in salsa verde. Pickled jalapenos on the side are also a nice touch. This recipe will make 8-10 falutas.

Pineapple chicken and snow peas

This dish is a nice spring time meal. It's quick, easy, and full of flavor. I've been craving fruit, especially tropical fruits, so this pineapple dish hit the spot for me. I've been trying to cook as much as possible lately, though it's difficult.

I've entered the third trimester with twins and it's getting increasingly difficult to do even the most basic things like stand for more than 10 minutes, breathe, bend, sit, and so on. Mostly I just want someone else to cook for me, but that's not always an option! 

I'm going to try to get a few things in the freezer over the next couple of weeks to have on hand for quick meals once the babies arrive. They will be coming right in the heat of summer, so I'm not sure what to make -- any suggestions? It's not really prime casserole or soup season then, which are the easiest things to put in the freezer sometimes. 

This dish will make about 4 servings when served with a side of rice or couscous. It's a nice weeknight dish that comes together pretty quickly and makes some lunch leftovers for the next day (my favorite).

Cheesy spaghetti squash

Hot and cheesy spaghetti squash is a delicious comfort food that makes a perfect side dish to so many different meals. It's flavorful and a great way to enjoy spaghetti squash.
