Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie

When I first met my husband years ago, one of the things I loved most was getting to know his Grandma Jolley. She wasn’t too sure about me at first, but we eventually bonded over the love of cooking. She was an amazing cook and made everything from scratch, including this amazing pie, which is super light and refreshing.

Picnic Potato Salad Recipe

One of my favorite recipes to make for a picnic is my homemade potato salad. I love going on picnics, especially when we are in Montana spending time at our cabin. We were there a few weeks ago and my picnic plans kept getting derailed with all the thunderstorms we had there at the time so I decided I was tired waiting for the rain to stop and we had the picnic on the front porch of the cabin.

I made my homemade potato salad recipe, a strawberry pudding cake, fried chicken, corn, corn on the cob and cut up some fresh watermelon. Everything was perfect and even though it wasn't the picnic I had planned, the view from our cabin's porch is nothing to complain about!

This easy picnic potato salad is easy to make and you can adjust the ingredients to your liking. It's one of the recipes where you can do that. I like a small amount

This is truly my favorite kitchen tool and it doesn't take up a ton of space and goes right into the dishwasher! Just quarter your onion, drop it into the chopper and turn the crank a handful of times. Thats it! The onions are all uniform in size too and depending on how many times you turn the crank, they can be smaller-sized pieces or larger.

This is also a one-pot

Caramel Cream Cheese Fruit Dip

This is the easiest fruit dip recipe ever!

This recipe is a favorite that came about by accident! Who doesn't love when that happens?! One day I was hosting a baby shower and had bought all the fresh fruit for my favorite fruit dip which was made with cream cheese and marshmallow creme. I had all the fruit prepped and was ready to make my dip, however, when I went to my pantry to find the marshmallow creme, I discovered I did not have any! I hadn't checked in the pantry to make sure I had some before I went to the store and I didn't have time to go to the store again.

As I sat there and tried to figure out what I was going to do, I thought, what else goes good with cream cheese......something sweet always goes good with cream cheese right?! I quickly started looking around my pantry for something sweet to supplement my cream
