Cauliflower Soup

I am obsessed with this soup!  It is so easy to put together, and it is delicious!  I have made it twice this last month.  I think (correct me if I’m wrong) it would be easy to make it GF if you have a flour substitution you trust with which to make a nice roux.  cauliflower soup

If your kids don’t like cauliflower, you could puree it all for a creamy soup that they might like without knowing there’s cauliflower in it.  We love it chunky (in fact, I usually at least double up on the veggies) and we especially love it served with several dashes of chipotle-flavored Tabasco sauce on top!

Pumpkin Lust Pie

This stuff is so good, sometimes we have it in the middle of the summer.  The pumpkin spice pudding mix can be hard to find, so be sure and stock up during the fall holidays when you see it.  My dad, who has eaten a lot of my cooking, proclaimed this dessert “the best thing you’ve ever made”.  It has pretty much replaced pumpkin pie in our house!pumpkin lust pie

Slow Cooker BBQ Pork

I got this recipe when I was in a freezer meal cooking club. Oh how I LOVE meals that are easy, can be prepped days, weeks or months before. It is even better when it is a crowd pleaser.

When pork is on sale I buy extra and through everything a gallon freezer bag, label and freeze.  On the day that I’m going to cook it I just cut open the bag and dump everything into the crock pot. If I put it in there completely frozen I usually add about an hour to the cooking time.
