Creamy Mashed Potato Casserole gets a little flavor love with the addition of sour cream and cream cheese.
This recipe is the perfect make ahead side dish that can be reheated in the oven or the microwave.
These creamy potatoes are fluffy with a nice buttery flavor.
Perfect if you ask me!

We decided to host an Oktoberfest themed dinner and knew Creamy German Cucumber-Dill Salad would be on the menu.
The ingredients are simple yet the sour cream & fresh dill dressing brings a lovely full flavor to this chilled salad. This salad, also known as Gurkensalat is fresh and light and makes a perfect side dish.

There’s quite the story that goes with this Loaded Baked Potato Tots Recipe.
Last week I shared what would be the first recipe in a new series called College Cooking. My 21 year old bonus-son and his roommates requested some recipe inspiration.

Sharing Fresh Mexican Street Corn Dip You’ll Love. Your family will request. And your neighbors will covet.
We’ve taken classic Mexican street corn and cut it off the cob. Because scooping corn chips through creamy fresh grilled corn that’s bursting with chili and lime flavors …is FUN!!

This recipe yields 4 dozen Double Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins!!
Does anyone else buy boxes of “Little Bites” muffins for their kids (big or small)??
I can’t believe I’m admitting it – not because I’m a packaged food snob, but because muffins are so darn easy to make at home!

Vegetarian Black Bean Chili begins like many of our soup and chili recipes….with a medley of carrots, onions and celery.
But that’s just the beginning of this flavor journey.

There was a time when French Onion Dip was the go-to staple for Game Day or family gatherings.
A packet of onion soup mix, a tub of sour cream, and a big bag of ruffled potato chips and we were in dip heaven.
Just think how far the dip world has come, evolved if you will.

This Smoked Steelhead Trout Dip is wonderful! I mean spread it on a cracker or eat it with a spoon. It’s downright addicting!
