One of our favorite things to do when having friends over is have a cookout! Me, being raised in a traditional Mexican home, we never grilled burgers or hot-dogs. Our cook outs consisted of fajitas, beans, and rice . I actually was always surprised when people would invite me to a cookout and there ...

Garlic Beef Enchiladas
My husband and I are huge Mexican food lovers. One of my favorite dishes to order in a restaurant are enchiladas. I typically stick to the green sauce, but this recipe may have changed my mind. The sauce on these enchiladas was so yummy. My kids typically do not care for these types of dinners, but ...
Beef Stroganoff
When my husband and I first got married, I was NOT good at cooking. I tried to stay with boxed dinners, sandwiches, Ramen noodles, etc. Slowly, we both got tired of those dinners, and then the kids came along and I decided I needed to expand my skills.

I ended up tweaking it a bit since I was missing some of the ingredients but the outcome was oh so good! My husband and I love soup year round, especially since we live ...

Let me assure you I have come a long way from that time. Ha ha. However one of my first recipes that I mastered ...
Beef Bundles (aka Beef Stuffed Crescents)
Yesterday, with the weather being so nice, the kids and I wanted to spend as much time outside as possible. I put these together during the kids nap time, and was able to enjoy the afternoon in the sun. Around dinner time, I popped these into the oven, and 12 minutes later, dinner was served. The ...
BBQ Beef Biscuit Cups
A few weeks ago I saw a picture of "sloppy joe cups" floating around on Pinterest. I was super intrigued and immediately pinned it to my board.
