I needed to bring a Vegetarian friendly dish to a lunch with friends and came across this one from Vegan Visitor for an Avocado Potato Salad. It was delicious but being the lover of meats that I am, I couldn’t help but think… THIS WOULD BE SO MUCH BETTER WITH BACON! Yes, bacon inspiration requires all caps. So I […]
My go-to recipe for chicken pot pie is one that I fall back on all the time. When things are busy and I need a quick meal that I know everyone will enjoy, I go to this one. My kids love those frozen pot pies with the crust that you can get in the freezer […]
