This is one of my very favorite recipes, because not only is it quick and easy to make, but it seriously tastes like it has been simmering over a stove the entire day. Chicken noodle soup doesn’t need to do that to be amazing. It is homey and comforting, and one of my very favorites.… Continue reading Weeknight Chicken Noodle Soup (still as good as Grandma’s)
Can we really call these brownies? I suppose they could be called blondies instead. There was a lot of quibbling over the title in the reviews I read for this recipe. Semantics, really. These perfect apple cinnamon-y bars are definitely delicious, and you know that’s all I care about. Honestly, it’s a dangerous recipe for… Continue reading Good ‘ol Fashioned Apple Brownies

I’ve made candied walnuts in the past, and it has always involved toasting nuts in the oven, complicated syrups, candy thermometers, and breaking apart stuck together nuts tediously with a fork. No thanks. I’d way rather just buy the $6 bag of them near the croutons at the grocery store. I have to say though,… Continue reading Candied Walnuts for Salads
