Hey There! This is our next set of meals. We just finished a most entertaining staycation with our big little family had a great time!

In the realm of comforting and crowd-pleasing side dishes, few can rival the timeless appeal of a well made potato salad. This is my Moms potato salad recipe. It brings back such fond memories and I love it. Is it the only potato salad I make? No. Is it easy, and requires no planning? Yes. I almost always have the ingredients on hand to make this and it comes together quickly. This recipe has stood the teset of time and it is full of vintage nostalgia. Give it try this summer!

 This simple and refreshing fruit bowl features a yummy honey lime glaze. You can use whatever fruits you like best, but I suggest using atleast three different fresh fruits if you can. Opt for a colorful combination, imagine juicy mangoes, succulent strawberries, plump blueberries, and tangy pineapple. The combinations are endless! I used strawberries blueberries and grapes this time. Its so good and perfect in these hot summer days! 

  Ok guys these are very tasty! Also very easy! I quite literally smashed a package of pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough into the bottom of a sprayed 9x13 baking dish. Added a container of No Bake Cheesecake filling over the dough and then crumbled a second cookie dough package over the top and baked. It had no business being as yummy as it was, for as easy as it is, but we loved it! I should mention that this dessert is an eat with a utensil dish, over a pick up with your hands bar because of the softness of the filling. But Seriously, Give this one a try!  ITS TOO EASY to not!   Have a great day!  ENJOY YOUR KITCHEN!

 Hi! This one is a winner! Its kinda like if a jello salad and a fruit salad had a baby and made this beautiful queen salad! It is easy and delish! My beautiful daughter Lindsay pointed me in this salads direction and she was right! This one is SO good! Its got oranges and pineapple with strawberries and bananas mixed together with a pie filling and jello too! YUM-O!! It would be a great winter dish when fruit is more expensive but it shouldnt be saved for winter though.  Its great year round.
