Food, Family & Finds from A Cowboy's Wife
Tomatoes and onions create some wonderful dishes and this one is no exception. Because it’s nearly impossible to find green tomatoes around here, I used firm red tomatoes instead. This is part two of three of the dinner meal I planned for you guys. You can see the creamed corn I made earlier and stay… [Continue Reading]
Do you know what real creamed corn is? I’m sure you’ve eaten it from the can but making creamed corn from scratch, well, it’s just better. I thought it was interesting to learn that the cream is actually inside the kernels so in order for you to get it out, you have to put a… [Continue Reading]
HA HA. I have no clue what to call this but I know there are folks out there who have eaten this and if you haven’t, you’re missing out on a delicious vegetable meal! We were given a whole bunch of fresh okra and squash and I mean a whole bunch and I knew… [Continue Reading]

Just another side dish idea. We try to cook potatoes in a variety of ways and for everything but mashed, we use red potatoes. Basically you throw all this in a bowl, mix and bake. Pretty simple. I chose to use light dressing and no cheese since I’m trying to lose weight but normally we… [Continue Reading]
I’m actually not a fan of squash but everyone I know loves it. I try to cook it often for my family and for the cowboys but get tired of the same ol’ fried squash. I decided this time around to try some baked squash. I fed the cowboys today and must have done something… [Continue Reading]
Sounds slightly fancy but it’s actually VERY easy to make and really not fancy at all….lol Casseroles are making a comeback which is not a surprise with our current economic situation so when I can find a good casserole that is cost friendly and easy, I run with it full speed ahead.
This recipe calls for… [Continue Reading]

INGREDIENTS
1 pkg. frozen chopped broccoli & cauliflower
1/2… [Continue Reading]

There is a definite chill in the air, and I’m not just talking about the mister opening his checkbook either! Winter is upon us up here in the Great Northwest…no snow yet but when the temperature dips below our average (50 degrees) it’s time to break… [Continue Reading]
A gal emailed me the other day and shared one of her favorite recipes, however, she didn’t really give me specifics so I had to go with the flow. Her name is Sarah from Team Mom and she’s RAWKS! Anyways, she gave me ingredients but not quantity or true directions so this recipe… [Continue Reading]
