Chicken Enchiladas

November 29, 2009

This is a recipe I have developed over the course of a lot of years. Sometimes I put in a lot of cheese, sometimes not much at all (depending upon the current size of our waist lines…and how serious we are at that point in time about shrinking them!) The chicken is very flavorful and [...]

Homemade Won Tons with Dipping Sauce

November 28, 2009

These fabulous homemade Won Tons are a great Eskelson Family Tradition. My father in law Mark, spent 2 years as an LDS missionary in Japan, and MyHandsomeHusband served a mission in Korea.

Quiche

November 23, 2009

However, I wouldn’t dare make it without a lot of cheese and some sort of meat. This recipe calls for bacon and Swiss. Sausage or ham would also be great. I [...]

Mint Oreo Cookies

November 19, 2009

These delightful treats are super super easy. The cookie dough is made from a devils food cake mix. How easy is that! The frosting is homemade with a hint of mint. Gotta LOVE chocolate and mint. Love may be too light of a word. I think I might be down right obsessed with chocolate and [...]

Adam’s Bottled Cranberry Sauce, makes 10 pints

November 17, 2009

This recipe was developed by MyHandsomeHusband. He is a wiz with all kinds of sauces and gravy’s. I am often calling him into the kitchen to help me season up all kinds of things. Just another one of his talents. How does one guy end up with so many? Just lucky, I guess. This recipe [...]
