I have said this before and it bears repeating: I am the queen of comfort food. (This is why Turkey Ham and Cheesy Potato Hotdish is calling my name.) I love bread, pasta, cheese, potatoes, creamy soups, chili, and the venerable hotdish (also known as casserole if you live outside…
Honest truth – I was thinking I wouldn’t have time to do a Turkey Tuesday post this week. I wasn’t prepared, I didn’t have a recipe in mind, I wasn’t even sure I had ingredients on hand. (And certainly creating the Best Ever Turkey Meatloaf wasn’t in the cards.) In…
Here’s my deal with Turkey Tuesday. I want to show you some unexpected ways to switch to turkey in recipes that are not only delicious but also relatively easy to make and (generally) family friendly. Take The Pioneer Woman’s Three-Cheese Stuffed Shells with Meaty Tomato Sauce. I switched out the…
