Drizzle Cake
I originally got this recipe many years ago from my mother-in-law Lela, who called it "Drizzle Cake" . I later heard that these types of desserts were also called poke cakes or dump cakes. Whatever it is called, this is a really quick and easy dessert to whip up in a hurry.
Harvest Pound Cake with Divine Caramel Sauce
Your mouth will be in ecstasy! Such a wonderful fall dessert. This cake will not last long. My best friend, who is an amazing baker, shared her recipe with me the first time I experienced this mouth watering goodness.
Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars
This recipe is one I used often when my kids were in school and had team dinners. The kids, as well as the adults loved them!
Great for Taco Tuesdays and is so easy and yummy!
Costa Rican-style Shrimp Ceviche
This recipe was shared with me by a fellow teacher, who spent a lot of time in Costa Rica. A quick, refreshing go-to appetizer that I often use for impromptu get-togethers, that will leave your guests with an OMG experience.
Creamy Cowboy Caviar
Planning on having a group over? This is a great make-ahead dip that your guests will not be able to walk away from!
Potstickers
My family loves to get together for a fun afternoon of laughter while we assemble masses of potstickers for our various homes. These can be frozen for a quick option during the busy weeks or impromptu get-togethers.
Pintxos (Tapas) of Grilled Shrimp, Mushroom, Leek, and Romesco
These are amazing! They taste as good as they look with all the flavors melding together to dance across your mouth. Have as an appetizer or add a side salad for a meal. Serves 8-10.
Ashlee’s Taco Ring
The first time I ever had the Taco Ring was at a Pampered Chef party. I fell in love and have been making it ever since. My son requests it weekly! It is so yummy and so easy. The Taco Ring is great for BBQs, Superbowl parties or an easy dinner instead of traditional tacos.
Scrambled Egg Pizza
Hungry crowd on a Sunday morning, try this pizza with a bunch of different toppings. My family also loves these pizzas as a leftover on a busy Monday morning.
Pork Fried “Rice” Cauliflower
Busy weeknight on Keto calls for a fried "rice" meal. This dish comes together easily and with whatever ingredients you have in your refrigerator. Try it with your favorite seasonings for different spins on an old favorite.
