So remember those simple holiday meals (St. Patrick’s Day and Easter) I have mentioned before? Halloween is when we get to have Count Chocula for breakfast. Lunch is usually the fun meal for the kids. We make mummy dogs, which are hot dogs wrapped in crescent dough, orange jello and…

Remember my previous recipe about what to do with all that garden zucchini? Well, this is another favorite of mine but a little healthier. Many years ago when I was going to college, there was a Carl’s Jr. on campus. Every once in awhile I would treat myself to their…

Easter is a holiday that I don’t have a “fun” menu planned. Breakfast is simple and quick (hard boiled eggs and English Muffins) before heading off to church. Years ago I mailed away for jiggler egg molds through Jello. The kids and I did them when they were younger but…

I like to keep my holiday menus simple for me and fun for my kids. Being Irish I’ve never made and honestly don’t remember ever eating Corned Beef and Cabbage. On St. Patrick’s Day we had Lucky Charms for breakfast, lime jell-o for lunch, potato soup for dinner and mint…

I wanted to start with a classic. Who doesn’t love a good salty snack every once in a while? Party Mix used to be one of those “treats” that was made only during the holidays. I remember my mom making this when I was young. The whole house would fill…
