Taste of Home

I'm so excited about this Taste of Home recipe.  One of my favorite party foods, besides meatballs, is chicken wings.  All kinds, all flavors, all spices, all sauces!  The easier to make em', the better!  This recipe is a MUST MAKE!

So, you're house has been designated the "place to watch the big game"! Great!  You love having your friends over, but besides cleaning the house, you have the task of determining what to serve.  Oh sure, you're friends will bring chips, but request they bring tortilla chips and give em' something yummy to put on it, avocado salsa from Taste of Home!

Once the cold snap is over and we can return to skiing, skating, Polar Bear Plunging and other outdoor activities.  After being out in the cold air warm yourself from the inside with piping hot, easy to make, flavored coffee from Taste of Home.

With temps below zero and a wind chill advisory in effect until tomorrow at noon, I thought a hot tasty meal for the family would be a welcome warm up for y'all! Try this Chili-Lime Chicken Toastada from Taste of Home.

The big game is coming up this Saturday, January 5 at 7p.  Will you be ready for a house full of hungry football fanatics?  Relax!!  It will be easy with the help of Taste of Home.  Let's start with this yummy Beer Cheese in a Bread Bowl Dip (sounds kinda Packerish, doesn't it), and I'll keep the recipes coming!  Feel free to share these recipes and ENJOY!

A hot beverage will be appreciated this weekend with the snow expected.  Taste of Home has taken a old favorite, hot chocolate and added a tasty twist.  Maple flavoring, mmmmmmm!  Imagine the taste of rich, creamy chocolate coupled with maple flavoring, it will have the skeptics asking for another cup.  (You might want to make a double batch!)

Unfortunately, neither Ken or I are that great at wrapping gifts.  But, that doesn't stop us from volunteering!  (You've been forewarned), bring your gifts to tomorrow (Thursday, December 13) at the Salvation Army Gift Wrapping booth in the Miller Hill Mall.  We'll be there from 4-6.  Or, if it's been a while since you've hooked up with friends, host a gift wrapping party to get the tedious task c

Ok, I honestly almost deleted this recipe...sounded to hard, then as I read through the directions I realized it wasn't.  They look darling and imagine the oohs and ahhs you'll get when you fill the candy dish with Taste of Home gumdrops and say "oh those?  I made them"!

Tis' the season for the flu, colds and being too busy to make a hearty meal for your family.  That's why Taste of Home's Northwood's Beef Stew is the perfect meal!!!  It's comfort food made in the crock pot so you come home to the smell of a home cooked meal!

Before my daughter grew up and found 10,000 other things to do than spend time in the kitchen with me, I was always looking for kid-friendly recipes to make together.  We'd crank B105, talk and laugh, something that parents and kids should do more often.  Hardest part was coming up with something to make, let me take care of that for you  THIS weekend.  Make Taste of Home's Colorful Peanut Butter

So you've spent time picking out that perfect pumpkin.  You couldn't wait.  Now, it's perched on a post, on your deck.  Waiting, waiting, waiting....until YOU have time to carve it.  WHEN will you have time?  Don't worry, you will.  But, until then, here's some tips from Taste of Home to help keep your pumpkin healthy, until you make it a jack-o-lantern.  (with comments from me, Cathy Kates) Read

I've had ravioli filled with butternut squash and a white sauce, it was delicious!!  I can't wait to get home and try THIS Taste of Home Pumpkin Lasagna recipe and see if it's similar.  I love the fact that I have another way to use pumpkin, besides bread, pie and bars!
