White Pizza with Bacon and Tomatoes
A pizza-lovers dream! Loaded with cheesy Alfredo sauce and topped with fresh, delicious tomatoes, onions, basil and savory bacon, this pizza is perfect for pizza night or for an easy dinner solution any night of the week! Is it me, or do I have the only kid in America that doesn't eat pizza? Isn't pizza one of those foods that kids go crazy for? My husband and I love it, but our 6-year-old son would rather go without eating than grabbing a slice. Therefore, it has become a small mission of mine to create a pizza that my son will enjoy just as much as his parents. I decided to make a pizza that uses an Alfredo sauce, instead of a red sauce (which is what he says he doesn't like.) Topped with some seriously delicious toppings: cheese, bacon, red … [Read more...]
Cherry Almond Crumble Tart
Even easier than Cherry Pie, this Cherry Almond Crumble Tart is fabulous! Loaded with fresh cherry flavor, this super-simple tart recipe, uses store-bought pie crust, along with fresh or frozen cherries. Makes an amazing Thanksgiving or Christmas dessert or just a simple weeknight treat!

This week my local market had a huge amount of fresh, sweet cherries on hand. I grabbed a couple pounds and decided to make this delicious, easy Cherry Almond Crumble Tart. I … [Read more...]
Ardelle’s Rhubarb Delight {Remembering Ardelle Davis}
My family and I just returned from spending two weeks in our native South Dakota, were we got to see many family and friends. We were able to help Jason's cousin Stacy and new husband Aaron celebrate their wedding, and catch up with family members that we don't usually get to see but once a year. We were both very blessed to be brought up in small communities in South Dakota where friends and family are the cornerstone of the community itself. Communities like the one I grew up in (Burke, SD) are made up of some truly phenomenal people. Today I am honoring the life of one of these amazing people; Ardelle Davis. Ardelle was one of those people who you see walking down the street...she see's you, and she would immediately speed up to come greet you with a hug. Ardelle was known … [Read more...]
Thin Crust Smokehouse Pizza
Smokey bacon, ham, red and green onions and plenty of cheese top this delicious thin crust pizza! The perfect dinner option for any night of the week! Well, I don't know about you, but we've had quite the winter! Multiple snow days for my son, (so many they are having to make up days on previously scheduled holidays!), lots of snow, and some treacherous, albeit, quite beautiful icy days. Here in the mid-atlantic part of the country, when the forcast calls for snow, even just a little bit, people get a little nuts! They storm the grocery stores packing their carts full of milk, bread, toilet paper and beer, planning for the worst. Today we had another snow storm. This storm was easily the biggest of the season, and as far as snow fall is concerned, we got around … [Read more...]
