Coconut Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

The other day I was reading a cookbook (weird I know) and it got me thinking about how different families use different ingredients. Like cream of tartar kept showing up in all these recipes and I was like, "that's so interesting. I don't think my family even has one recipe with cream of tartar in it." You know what I mean?

Chocolate Hell Cake

Say hello to this beauty (heart eyes)! I'm honestly just surprised this recipe hasn't made it on the blog until now! 

December 29, 2017

December 29th, 2017 was one of the most special days of my life. It was the day I was sealed to my best friend FOREVER! After almost 4 months (crazy how fast time flies), I'm still so obsessed with our pictures (by the lovely www.katelynbell.com) and our video (by one of my good friends Hayley at: www.hayleycarterfilms.com).  Today I decided to share some of my favorite pictures from our wedding! It was a struggle trying to not upload hundreds of them haha. Hope you enjoy!

Instant Pot Mac and Cheese

We all know how much I love Mac and Cheese, and now it just got easier! I have made this recipe many times and it always hits the spot! It's the perfect amount of creamy goodness to stay in your memory forever! 

Life Update: October 2017

Well hello! Long time, no posts haha. Life has been crazy. And the blog has definitely been put on the back burner (and turned way down low). But, right now I'm not in the mood to do my American Heritage homework (please no), and I really want to update you all because....

Garden Zucchini Soup

My favorite season is here! Harvest Season! I love when everything in the garden is ready to pick and eat! Especially the tomatoes and zucchini. Lately our family has been struggling to keep up with the amount of zucchini being produced in our small patch. My mom has resorted to throwing them in our neighbors cars as they pass by haha! So if you live close I should warn you, do not stop and talk to my mom if she's standing by the road with her hands held behind her back, hiding something ;)

Honey Lime Chicken Enchiladas

These chicken enchiladas are definitely a family favorite! Last fall we ate them every thursday for a couple months. This recipe comes from a family friend, but sometimes we change it up. We also love to use our pressure cooker (Instant Pot) to cook the chicken because it cuts the prep time significantly! 

Italian Seasoning Bread

Throw back to Winter semester 2016-17. I had a night class on Tuesdays that literally almost killed me every week. I HATE night classes lol. Especially when they are 3 hours long about how to teach people haha! But, turns out the class actually paid off, why? Because my teacher would bring this lovely bread to class randomly and it would make my day 100x better hah! This bread is so delicious, you won't believe it!
