Slow Cooker Banana Foster Pudding

Simple. Sticky. A little Southern. A whole lotta comfort. Let me tell you something real — I did not grow up with fancy desserts. No crème brûlée, no layered trifles, no tarts with delicate swirls. But what I did have? Banana pudding. Sometimes with vanilla wafers, sometimes without, always warm and sweet and made with love. The kind of dessert that gets plopped onto a plate with a big spoon, no measuring, no precision, just heart. Now, this Banana Foster Pudding isn’t exactly what my grandma made — but oh my goodness, it tastes like something she would’ve. It’s my …

Slow Cooker Herb-Infused Chicken and Potatoes

Let me be honest for a second: by 4:30 p.m., I’m usually standing in my kitchen with no clue what I’m making for dinner, a laundry basket in the hallway, and at least one person asking me what time we’re eating.

Slow Cooker Beef & Noodles

There’s something about the smell of beef and noodles simmering away in the slow cooker that makes everything feel alright again, isn’t there? I grew up on this dish. It was a regular sight on my grandma’s stove — always on Sundays, always with bread warm from the oven and corn frozen from the summer garden. She’d toss everything into the pot early in the morning before church, and by the time we came home, the house smelled like home itself. Warm, savory, just a little herby. It’s the kind of food that doesn’t just feed your belly, it feeds …

The Crispiest Potato Latkes (Just Like Grandma Made)

There’s something about the smell of onions and potatoes frying in oil that takes me back to my childhood kitchen. My grandmother would stand at the stove, her apron smudged with flour, flipping latkes with the kind of care you reserve for something sacred — and, honestly, in our family, they were. She never measured anything, always going by feel, but somehow they turned out perfect every single time: crisp on the outside, creamy in the center, and just the right amount of salty. I used to think there was some secret magic behind them — and maybe there is. …

Tennessee Peach Pudding: A Southern Hug in Dessert Form

Let me tell y’all something — when I was growing up in East Tennessee, summer always meant two things: the smell of fresh-cut grass and baskets of peaches from my aunt’s orchard. Sticky fingers, warm sunshine, and that soft fuzz on the skin… we’d eat them standing right there in the field, juice dripping down our arms. But the real magic happened when Mama pulled out her big stoneware dish and made peach pudding. Not cobbler — pudding. A warm, cakey, caramelly hug of a dessert that somehow got crispy on top and stayed tender underneath. The whole house smelled …

Strawberry Ice Cream Bites with Chocolate & Mint — A No-Bake Dessert Everyone Will Beg For

I still remember the first time I made these little frozen bites. It was one of those sweltering Saturdays in July where the air conditioning couldn’t keep up, and my daughter had about eight toddlers running wild through the house for her son’s third birthday. I needed a dessert that was easy, fuss-free, and could survive the heat—and I’ll be darned if these didn’t steal the show. They’re creamy, fruity, just sweet enough, and wrapped up in a nostalgic strawberry ice cream hug. And the best part? No oven. No stress. Just a big pan of freezer magic you can …

Ooey Gooey Butter Bars: A Sweet Hug in Every Bite

I still remember the first time I made these ooey gooey bars. It was a chilly fall evening, the kind where the oven does double duty as both heater and heart-warmer. I had a yellow cake mix in the pantry that needed using, a block of cream cheese begging for attention, and a craving for something sweet but not fussy. Thirty minutes later, the house smelled like home — buttery, warm, and sweet with the faintest whisper of vanilla. My husband wandered into the kitchen with that “what smells so good?” face, and my youngest was already dipping a finger …

Amish Country Casserole — The Comfy Classic You Didn’t Know You Needed

Okay, listen. I’ve made a lot of casseroles in my day—some flops, some keepers, and a handful that downright saved my week. But this Amish Country Casserole? It’s the kind of dish that sneaks its way into your regular rotation before you even realize what’s happening. The first time I made it, I’d just come home from running errands all afternoon—hadn’t even thought about dinner. It was hot, I was cranky, and I was this close to handing everyone cereal and calling it a night. But I poked around the pantry, saw some pasta, a can of soup, and ground …
