Lazy Pierogi Casserole with Sauerkraut and Apple (aka Lazy Perogies)

March 23, 2020 by Faith 41 Comments

Lazy Pierogi Casserole with Sauerkraut and Apple (aka Lazy Perogies) has all the flavor of a delicious perogy, but with a quick, easy, and healthier spin!

Once the crisp chill of autumn settles in, my mom eases back into her routine of making big traditional comfort meals for our Sunday suppers, instead of casual dinners cooked on the grill.

A few years back she started making a dish that she calls Lazy Perogies that she learned from an old friend of the family. (Growing up in Buffalo, New York, this is actually a fairly popular recipe!)…

Chai-Spiced Brown Butter Pumpkin Walnut Loaf Cake

November 20, 2017 by Faith 1 Comment

Richly-spiced and aromatic, this dense, moist Chai-Spiced Brown Butter Pumpkin Walnut Loaf Cake is an easy baking project…and it would be lovely for Thanksgiving morning! If you’re looking for inspiration for your Thanksgiving morning, look no further. I have a festive treat that’s not too over-the-top festive…it contains pumpkin, but it will in no way steal the thunder of the pumpkin pie that you serve for dessert later!...

Braised Beef with Root Vegetables and Red Wine

Vital Proteins provided me with product for the purpose of this post, as well as compensation for my time. As always, all opinions expressed in this post are my own. Braised Beef with Root Vegetables and Red Wine is a hearty, slow food family meal that features a boost of nutrition thanks to added beef bone broth collagen. When you think of Sunday suppers in fall with family, what meals do you think of? For me, to name just a few, chicken pot pie; beef pot roast with vegetables; roast chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy; spaghetti with tomato sauce and meatballs....

Recently finding myself with a lone sweet potato in my fridge and hoping for some inspiration, I did a quick search on my site to see what sweet potato recipes I’ve shared with you. Friends, I am hanging my head in shame....

Cream Cheese Pumpkin Spice Spread

In 10th grade at my high school, health education class was mandatory for all students. In my class, there was a kid named Tim. Tim was a nice enough kid; the sporty type and on the hockey team, but not necessarily overly health-conscious. Every morning the teacher would ask Tim what he had for breakfast. Some days it was cereal with milk, some days it was eggs with toast. (I don’t remember beyond that because honestly, the only one who seemed to be completely enthralled with finding out what Tim ate every morning was the teacher.)...

Autumnal Afternoon Tea

A couple weeks ago I hosted a cozy afternoon tea with an autumnal flair. It was so much fun and there was talk of making it seasonal affair, which I think is a wonderful idea! I’m going to be sharing the recipes I made throughout the next month or so, but for now I’m going to let the photos do the talking....

Pumpkin & Cheese Spice Bread

October 28, 2011 by Faith 183 Comments

Would you rather eat a donut, muffin, or slice of bread if they were all baked (not fried) and made out of the same batter? Hmm…interesting. Last year I came up with a recipe for Baked Pumpkin Spice Donuts that both Mike and I went crazy for. (And this is nothing short of a miracle since he’s a self-proclaimed pumpkin-hater.) Since then, I’ve wanted to re-work the batter into muffins and/or quick bread....
