Hi, ! Happy Friday! We made it! It was a bit rough this week coming back to winter in Wisconsin after a
fabulous Cooking Mom Vacation to one of my favorites cities, Puerto Vallarta Mexico! It sure has been fun looking at all the pictures! What a great vacation in paradise!
Here are a few of the things we did: - We learned how to make tamales and more in an authentic Mexican cooking class
- We rented a private yacht for whale watching
- We went tequila tasting
- We ate the most delicious food
- We got to enjoy some pretty amazing cocktails too!
Do you want to join me on this trip next January? I'm hosting another group vacation to Puerto Vallarta for 7 magical nights on January 21-28, 2024. We'll be staying at the same fabulous resort! It's THE BEST!
Just 70 rooms, all beachfront with a beautiful view! Plus, all your drinks and all your gourmet cooked to order food at our resort is included. This trip is a GREAT deal and it always sells out! Click here to read all the delicious details and reserve your spot. I hope you'll join me for THE ULTIMATE winter getaway!
As much fun as it is to getaway it always feels so good to come home sweet home. (We sure missed our dog Arlo!) It was fun to be back in the kitchen again too. I've been trying to keep warm this week. It's soup season and I made one of my favorites this week...
My Hungarian Sausage Soup is so easy and it's just something a little different. It's loaded with smoked sausage and potatoes in a lovely tomato chicken broth.
That little bit of sour cream you add at the end makes it extra special. I love to serve it with an extra dollop of sour cream on top and crusty rye break for dunking and dipping. This soup isn't an all day deal. In fact it's done in 30 minutes or less. LOVE THAT!
You gotta try it!
Besides soup, it's casserole time! Okay, I'm the Queen of Casseroles, so I'm always up for making a cozy delicious hot dish! This Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti Casserole is one of my ALL TIME FAVES! Growing up my kids used to beg me to make this. It's that good!
Pick up a rotisserie chicken and make it even easier. This casserole is so good, it's even company worthy. You can make it up to 4 days ahead and bake it when you're ready. It's AMAZING!
The dressing is super easy! I bet you have all the ingredients to make it in your kitchen right now. Why not toss up this salad this weekend? It goes great with whatever you're serving for dinner.
For dessert in winter there's nothing better an an ooey, goey treat nice and warm right out of the oven. My Coconut Peach Dump Cake is perfect.
Just dump it all together and bake. We love it with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. So yummy!
