Those of us that grew up in the southwest know. We get to eat great Mexican food whenever we want. There is no planning a trip here for mouthwatering carne asada or perfectly crafted enchiladas. When you’re in the area, I encourage you to check out local Mexican food restaurants! Today I’m sharing two very…

Tried and true recipes for the RV life.
Lemon Sugar Cookies
This recipe was one of those happy accident kind of things. I made blueberry bars that called for some lemon juice and had 1/2 a lemon left so I hopped online and found this wonderful gem. When I made it the first time, I had already cut and juiced the lemon for the blueberry bar…
Instant Pot Spinach Artichoke Dip
I vowed to use my Instant Pot more this year. Most recipes I’ve found on the internet are detailed enough but I wanted to be better at all of it. Lucky me we have a great little cooking school in our town that offers a wide array of classes. And, lucky me they offer several…
Instant Pot Weeknight Ribs
We love ribs in our house. I mean really love. I love the smell of them on the grill, the pull off the bone, the delightful mess, everything about them. Except the meat in my teeth. Seriously, as soon as the meal is done I’m in the bathroom flossing away. But, ribs on a weeknight? …
Salsa Verde Con Queso Dip
We are chips and salsa people, 100%. We never turn down a second basket in a Mexican restaurant. I guess I shouldn’t say never because we are trying to keep our weight in check. Cheesy salsa, that’s a whole other ball game. You will always find a brick of Velveeta and a can of Rotel…
Instant Pot Green Beans
I am one happy bride right now. Mark now eats green beans. Yes, you read that correctly. My picky super-taster husband is now willingly eating a green vegetable, even asking me to make them! I’ll give you a minute to recover from the shock. I shouldn’t talk so sarcastically. Truth be told, his palate has…
Instant Pot Shredded Chicken
Just about any day of the week you’ll find shredded chicken in our freezer. When our lives were ruled by the boys’ sports schedules, the key to my sanity was found in the freezer and/or the Crock-Pot. I’m still at it, cooking meat and portioning it out for a meal later, with the only difference…
Avocado Fries
I’m so excited to share this recipe with you! We like to trail ride in our Jeep or RZR. It’s a great way to unplug, see nature and some fun other finds along the way. And, it’s a great way to find out of the way local dining gems. That’s how we found avocado fries. …
Cadbury Blondies
I can’t be the only one that hoards holiday candy. I just can’t be. My grocery store always puts the holiday candy on sale 4 or 5 weeks before the holiday. I’m talking a screaming deal sale that when combined with my coupons, makes them super screaming deal. Who doesn’t like a bag of M&M’s…
Lemon Delight
Easter in Arizona is always an adventure, weather wise. After our winters are over, we look forward nervously to the warming temperatures of spring. We don’t want the 90’s to arrive too soon because that means the 100’s are not far behind. If only we could have January and February temps year-round, sigh. Most times…
