There are so many ways to make a salad, but one of the best ways by far, is with bacon and noodles. This salad just tastes like a summer picnic where you hunt down the person who brought it and get the recipe for your family recipe book. Enjoy!

The weather is getting warmer, and what says summer better than ripe peaches and sugary goodness? There is something about a cobbler that makes you feel like you are home again - plus you can add ice cream to it, and who doesn't love things that pair with ice cream?

Some recipes earn a permanent spot in the rotation not because they're fancy, but because they're the answer to the eternal 5 o'clock question of what can I make right now that everyone will actually eat. These are exactly that. Make them for a snack, an appetizer, or honestly just because it's been a day and your family deserves something that tastes like effort without actually requiring it.

There is nothing better first thing in the morning than a warm, super-sweet carb overload. This one has a really weird name, but trust me, you will want it in your recipe book. It's not hard at all to make, and will get you rave reviews at the church potluck!

As a Missourian, I would be remiss if I didn't mention something that originated here, and with Memorial Day just around the corner, I thought some deliciously marinated pork chops (or chicken) sounded like just the thing.

This one is one of my favorites, and super simple to make. Plus, it is full of veggies, so if you don't think too much about all of the cheese in it, you could argue it is really good for you. I mean, your mouth will definitely be arguing about how good it is for you...

I'm not a fan of the super spicy, but you add a little kick to a smooth and creamy recipe and I'm doing the happy dance. This recipe is sure to make you wiggle! Plus I heard somewhere that spicy foods burn fat - probably not when paired with cream cheese, but we can pretend, right?

Muenster cheese is the quiet star of Chicken à la Gloria, melting into a rich, creamy layer that wraps the chicken in a smooth, buttery finish. Originally inspired by European-style cheeses, Muenster is known for its mild flavor and excellent melting ability, and it creates that irresistible, golden topping without overpowering the dish.

Basil is a great and tasty way to support your cardiovascular health. It lowers your blood pressure and cholesterol, aids in digestion, reduces oxidative stress, and may even help manage your blood-sugar levels. Try this delicious dish to make your heart and your mouth happy!
