Everyone has their classic favorite food. Pizza, fried chicken, spaghetti, tacos I bet you could name 50 others. Mine is lasagna. Actually my dad and I both LOVE lasagna; my family always jokes about how my father and I have the same taste buds. All of my favorite food seems to be his and it…

Aunt Ann’s Baked Chicken Superb!
Winter in Michigan is cold and grey and extenuates the need for good heart warming comfort food. While my grandma only spent a short time here in the mitten, she was always a midwestern lady. Residing mostly in Wisconsin and frequenting Minnesota to visit Aunt Ann, Grandma Bev was familiar with the cold. Thankfully her…
Homemade BBQ Ribs
There is nothing really like an old hand written family recipe. Caked with some sticky substance that you can only assume got there from the last time someone cared enough to take the card out and read the instructions. I wondered the last time someone might have used this one. You can tell by the…
Chicken Alexander

Easy Chicken and Rice!
You know what the definition of comfort food is? THIS. First of all it’s grandma’s recipe so right away this has gained a point in the comfort section. However we then check off creamy, warm and gooey, and of course made with love. Ingredients: 3 boneless/skinless chicken breasts cubed 1.5 cups of raw rice 2…
Grandma Bev’s Venison Hobo Supper
If you come from a household like mine every year come October/November you start collecting as many venison recipes as possible. To some girls nothing says fall like a pumpkin spice latte, to me nothing says fall like my freezer packed to the brim with my husband’s most recent deer! Growing up I did not…
