This recipe is my version based on my dad’s original recipes he taught me when I was younger. I use my family’s technique of cooking the meat first to prevent the fried wrapper from getting soggy.

You know what that means… I have a fun new recipe to share with you! This Lemon Chicken Taco Dinner can be as easy or homemade as you want. This is a no-shell taco dinner (but of course you easily put it all in a taco shell and it would also be AMAZING). I have included the recipes for each element of this dinner, but if you prefer, you can simply buy everything pre-made (except the chicken), and just assemble it after you grill the chicken.
I remember what it was like coming home from work and just wanting dinner done. So of course, I don’t want this to be daunting for you. If you happen to have the time to make it completely from scratch, I promise you won’t regret it. Price-wise, it is cheaper to make everything instead of buying it pre-made; but do what is best for you, your family, and your sanity.

This is the ONLY recipe I was able to get from my grandmother (my mom’s mom) herself. This is the very recipe she used for my mother every year for her birthday. The only issue… when I talked to my grandmother and got all the ingredients, but she didn’t give me measurements. She told me what she used, and what to look for as I was slowly adding in things. So this was interesting to figure out to say the least. I like to have at least an idea of what the measurements are.
I am a huge Mint Chip Ice Cream fan (as is my oldest whom I made these cupcakes for). My oldest just had a birthday party recently and wanted some kind of fun cupcake for the party. Enter…. mint chip milkshake cupcakes. A fun play on basic cupcakes with a milkshake flair.
Last year, I made a cake that looked like a dragon (yes this kid is also really into dragons). But that was a lot. I had to bake the cake, freeze it, cut it, “glue it” and then frost and decorate it.
The weather is starting to cool and the leaves are changing color here in Wisconsin. As baking in my house becomes more abundant, thanks to the cooling weather, I can’t help but start experimenting.
I love pumpkin and apples and RIGHT NOW they are in abundance! From local farms to farmers’ markets to grocery stores. This just means this is the perfect time to make (and create) all kinds of yummy treats with both. Today it’s Apple Pumpkin Muffins.
The lightest and crispiest Beer Battered Fried Fish recipe. The baking powder and carbonation in the beer make the fish batter delicate and puffy, just like a good ole fashioned Supper Club.
This recipe truly reflects more of a bruschetta feel. Lazy summer days that beg for moving slowly and snacking often. Chop tomatoes, slices of avocado and mozzarella cheese. What more could a girl ask for???
