I’m a sucker for french fries, and apparently so is everyone else – they are one of the most popular foods in the United States, largely due to fast food restaurants. The problem with the typical or traditional french fry, though, is they’re fried in oil. There are some options for baking them instead of…

Easy Fresh Basil Tomato Sauce
I love pasta. I have a batch mushroom marinara recipe that haven’t shared the recipe for yet (let me know if I should share that sooner rather later) that will last us pretty much the entire week, but sometimes I get a craving for a fresh sauce rather than something that’s been marinating with itself…

Easy Mushroom Gravy
Last week I posted a recipe for simple mashed potatoes, so this week I had to post a simple gravy recipe to go with it. I think most people associate gravy (and mashed potatoes) with the holidays, perhaps because they tend to have quite a bit of butter, milk, turkey drippings, etc. so it’s not…
