Creamy Chicken Chili is a winning recipe for so many reasons. It's easy, delicious, and all cooks in the Crock-Pot for less mess and an easy clean up. During the busy week we all face challenges and activities that make it difficult to have a healthy, hearty meal on the table for our families. At The Maverick Observer we love simple meals that taste amazing and make our lives easier.

Nothing goes better with BBQ pulled pork than these Easy Pickled Onions. This is a simple recipe that is best when it sits overnight. We love to serve them with BBQ pulled pork sliders, but they are excellent with brisket, chicken, or on a burger or sandwich.

When I was growing up, my mom would make German Beef Rouladen on special occasions. As I got older and tried to replicate the dish, it never came out like moms. During COVID in 2020, I decided to keep cooking until I got it right. My husband ate quite a few “experimental” attempts. The recipe below would make my mom proud. It reminds me of my childhood, my German heritage, and wonderful family gatherings.
