Since the snow hit two weeks ago, I’ve totally been in the mood for winter. Except, of course, the last 3 days where the air feels bitter and biting and I have to actually wear a heavy coat when I go outside. I much prefer the type of winter where snow lingers, the sun is …
Ever wonder why some baked beans are rich, thick, smoky, sweet, barbecuey (is that even a word?) and deeply delicious while yours are flavorless and pale? You’ve tried adding some molasses, ketchup, weenies, ground beef or maybe brown sugar to the store bought baked beans but…… nope. No use. Great news! I’m sharing my 7 …
Amidst the festivities I know it seems a little difficult to know exactly what to do when someone says, “Hey, why don’t ya’ll come over for dinner on Friday?” or “Hey, let’s have a potluck for work – everyone bring something”. As for me, I work from home and my coworker is Pete. Pete never …
Weeknight Cheesy Chicken and Stuffing Admit it. It’s Wednesday afternoon at 4:30pm. Almost time to go home. You have the ingredients for two different dishes in the fridge at home but the thought of chopping, cooking and cleaning up after dinner makes your bones hurt. You just want to go home and sit down. After …
I get it. I am aware that the interwebs probably DO NOT need even one more recipe for chili, texas chili, western chili, white chili, chili mac or even chicken chili. I just couldn’t find a recipe that I thought was super tasty and simple and MOST IMPORTANTLY for future weeknight recipes, A ONE POT DEAL! Besides, …
Mr Loaves and Dishes and I have noticed that someone shrunk our clothes. I think it is incredibly rude how my jeans pinch my waist. Sweet hubby doesn’t like for his shirt to touch his belly. It’s touching. This might mean there are more veggies in our future, but I think salads get boring and …

It’s almost time for the Tennessee Titans to take the field! I know ya’ll didn’t peg Loaves and Dishes for a football site – but we gotta be IN THE KNOW about football food – don’t you think? What could be hotter for Nashville’s own Tennessee Titan’s opening day tailgating than Nashville Hot Chicken Wings? …
I DID eat some diet food! While I was waiting for this Pepperoni Meatball Sub Casserole to bake! The diet food is called a salad and it goes perfectly with this Pepperoni Meatball Sub Casserole. The best news is that salads are easy to fix and this Pepperoni Meatball Sub Casserole is too making dinner …
I think there is a rule about how many pork roasts one can make in a single week. I have now broken that rule. I’m embarrassed to say, I still can’t get enough. The Sprakers might be eating Slow Cooked Crock Pot Cuban Sandwich again in the next few days, don’t tell the Sweet Hubby, …

I have the perfect recipe that will allow you to be running around your party filling up drinks, giving directions to the bathroom and making pleasant conversation rather than sweating over a stove or a grill – doesn’t that sound …

As someone who has said, “Fruit in your green salad? …. Ewwww!” or “I think the world would be better without that particular combination of foods – just keep your fruits and your green vegetables separate please”, I should probably be ashamed. I usually fancy myself as a socially liberal but financially conservative person (I’ll …
My cup is always more than half full! Guess what happens when I am sick? I learn about all kinds of new TV programs that I might never have discovered! I think I told you one time before about how I had been binge watching Ramen Noodle cooking shows on Netflix (food GEEK!) and that …
Today, we, (meaning sweet hubby [Mr. Loaves and Dishes] and I ) are on day 8 of what we could lovingly call “a cold” but for these writing purposes, I’ll just call it “THE snotty coughing death”. And while I had some lovely recipes planned that included a new spaghetti dish as well as a …
