Southwestern Sweet Potato CasseroleI adapted this from a Stuffed Acorn Squash recipe that sounded great. My kids aren't big fans of squash...but they do love yams and sweet potatoes. I thought this was wonderful served with warm rice. I sprinkled cayenne on mine to spice it up a bit. It was even better as leftovers the next couple of days. The photo did not come… |

Buttermilk Banana BreadI've made dozens of different types of banana bread, and this is one of my favorites. Our kids devoured it! My oldest told me "this is the best banana bread you've ever made, Mom." That's high praise from a 9th grader! |

Bailey's Irish Cream BrowniesI love Bailey's, and these brownies are infused with irish cream flavor in both the batter nand the frosting. I found these irresistable, and so did our kids. They're a perfect treat for St. Patrick's Day or whenever! |

Key Lime CheesecakeMy mom was always trying to find the perfect Key Lime Pie recipe. Though I know it's popular, I wasn't a fan of any that she made. Then she made this Key Lime Cheesecake and I fell in love with it! It's one of those special recipes that I'll be making for years to come.

Easy Pumpkin CheesecakeThis is an easy pumpkin cheesecake. Try it, or my pumpkin cheesecake with gingersnaps and walnuts recipe, as a nice alternative to regular pumpkin pie. Neither will kill your craving for pumpkin pie this holiday season, but they might create a new craving for you! This is adapted from a Paula Deen recipe. Thanks Paula! |
