Crock Pot Pizza Soup

Crock Pot Pizza Soup by Carolinaheartstrings

Have you ever looked at a recipe and knew based on the ingredients that it would be good, not great, but nevertheless tasty and satisfying? Probably not a family “favorite”? I thought this recipe was going to be that and I still wanted to make it. After all, it’s soup in a crock pot. That is a winning combination for me. Having…

Tarheel Pie

Tarheel Pie by Carolinaheartstrings

Looky, looky what I found. A chocolate pie that bears the name of my state. Coincidence. . . . . I think not. It’s fate baby. Earlier this month I blogged about the nickname the state of North Carolina carries, The Tarheel State and the “legends” and reasons behind that naming. One of them being the pine forests and large…

Squash Patties by Carolinaheartstrings

So often after Thanksgiving and the holidays we quit thinking of pumpkin and squashes. But with healthy eating on my mind I wanted to incorporate these vitamin rich vegetables into a few dishes. The high fiber content leaves you feeling satisfied and they’re tasty too! Serve as a side dish or make a little larger as a veggie burger.…

Tom and Jerry Batter by Carolinaheartstrings

My parents and aunt and uncle used to drink this every Christmas. My mother even had “special” mugs to serve it in. The was the only use of those particular mugs. Tom and Jerry mugs she called them.

Hot Mulled Cider

Hot Mulled Cider by Carolinaheartstrings

This is a drink The Husband loves and always asks me to make this time of year. I like to get up on Christmas Eve morning and start it in the crockpot and by noon it’s perfect. Nothing better than some hot apple cider while you watch your favorite Christmas movie.

Blackberry Brandy

Blackberry Brandy by Carolinaheartstrings

This smelled really wonderful cooking away in the crock-pot and was equally enjoyable in the glass! A bonus is its pretty color and it looks very festive in your best holiday glassware. However, most of mine will end up in a Solo cup for sipping around a bonfire! Cheers!
