Tex-Mex Enchilada Casserole

Tex-Mex Enchilada Casserole

63 Comments April 29, 2013
Before we even get started, let me just say that I know many of you (don’t look away, I’m talking to YOU!) are going to dismiss this recipe because of the ingredient list. And while I admit, it’s on the long side, I have to implore you to dig deep within your cooking soul and [...]

Lefse

Snapshot Saturday

27 Comments April 27, 2013
Fully embracing where I live means embracing lefse. Do you know lefse? It’s a super thin Norwegian flatbread. Made from potatoes and cream and a few other simple goodies, it is soft and delicious. Traditionally eaten with just a bit of butter, I have to admit that it’s dreamy with a touch of sugar, too. [...]

Creamy Tuscan Pasta Sauce {Quick 20-Minute Dinner}

29 Comments April 26, 2013
Raise your hand if being able to make dinner in 20 minutes fills your heart with joy? Now that the weather is {finally} warming up and we are spending more time outside remembering what fresh air feels like, dinner prep is being cut to a minimum. I love my kids. I want to serve them [...]

Buttermilk Biscuits

35 Comments April 25, 2013
Before we jump into the biscuit-loving realm of things, let me address a few hot topics: 1) There’s a giveaway. A fun one. To celebrate the redesign of my site, the fact that I’ve been blogging for over 5 years now (huh, what??) and because my Facebook page surpassed 15,000 crazy likes this [...]

If words could adequately describe the deliciousness you see before you, it would be summed up in the words I’ve translated from my eloquent husband while ice cream and caramel dribbled down his chin: “Uh, seriously, Mel, these are unreal.” And then he proceeded to steal my firstborn’s caramel sauce and eat five more. After [...]

Mel’s Kitchen Cafe: Redesigned!

119 Comments April 21, 2013
It’s here! You guys, it’s here! My new look, er, I mean, my website’s new look has officially launched and as you are reading this, I’m doing heel kicks and high fives in my 1-inch square kitchen. Seriously. I’m just so giddy about it. I’m pretty sure I have a dorky perma-grin plastered on my [...]

Italian Lasagna Rolls

19 Comments April 19, 2013
For a girl that loves lasagna with the entirety of her whole soul, it was just a matter of time before lasagna rolls came to be. You might wonder what the purpose of lasagna rolls really are since it’s basically traditional lasagna ingredients – just layered a bit differently and rolled [...]

Wheat and Wheat Grinding 101: The Wheat {Types, Where to Buy, and What to Make}

63 Comments April 17, 2013
I’ve alluded to this post/series for a while now but I’m more excited than should be deemed rational to finally be bringing you the first installment of the official Wheat and Wheat Grinding 101 series. Perhaps I’m the only one that gets giddy when talking about wheat (Huh? Weird? Me?) but alas, I do and [...]

First, a little business. A week from today, things will be looking a little different (and so, so much prettier) around here. Website redesign by the phenomenal ladies at Wooden Spoons Kitchen. And it’s so incredible, I want to weep. However, my website will be down/offline/inaccessible Saturday (the 20th) and Sunday (the 21st) [...]

Snapshot Saturday: Baby Bedhead

31 Comments April 13, 2013
Get a load of this little girl and her bedhead. If there is any indication I am a mom of {mostly} boys, it is the state of Cam’s hair any given day. I try. I really do. I even have used many of your suggestions. But alas, I have a hard time committing to [...]
