Upgraded Ramen

Ramen is super easy and cheap, but personally I do not find it a satisfying meal. I need more flavor in my life than instant ramen. My husband is the exact opposite, he could eat ramen plain and have no complaints. Recently with the cold weather, he has been eating so much ramen, we jokeContinue reading “Upgraded Ramen”

Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Creamy, garlicky, tangy, and salty – this is how I would describe this dish! The sour cream adds a creaminess with a tangy kick that really brings these potatoes to a new level.

Sausage Stuffed Shells with Pumpkin Alfredo

I usually get inspiration for a dish based on what I’m craving, something in my pantry/fridge, or something I see in the grocery store! This dish came about just from that.
