FAGE Yogurt – Diabetic and Gluten Free Friendly

Yogurt is something that, I feel, you have to acquire a taste for.  I have always despised yogurt until recently.  Because of it’s many health benefits, I’m learning to like it.  Then, I was told, by the owner of this ranch, Amy, who is a very sweet woman I might add, about  FAGE, a Greek… [Continue Reading]

Baked Squash Casserole

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]

Breaded Boneless Pork Chops

Another meal here on the ranch, only 5 more days to go.  I NEVER cook pork chops or chicken for cowboys.  We get our beef furnished with our job so I might as well use that right?  But I needed a break from beef and decided to cook pork chops. Now of course, I had… [Continue Reading]

The Best Dinner Rolls – Soft, Sweet Bread!

These dinner rolls are one of the easiest and most delicious bread recipes I have.  I first learned how to make dinner rolls from one of our previous employer’s wife, on the Fulton Quien Sabe Ranch.  She was a great cook and made many things from scratch but boy could she make a bread recipe… [Continue Reading]

Beef, It’s What’s for Dinner

Asian Beef & Broccoli With Noodles

Asian stir fry, never been a fan until now!!!  I have to say that this was my favorite recipe out of all the beef ones I did this week.  I didn’t know what to expect using the ramen noodles but was very happy with this dish!  And it wasn’t just me either, the entire family … [Continue Reading]

Steaks with Mushrooms, Blue Cheese & Frizzled Shallots

Not as healthy as the Beef Rolls but using lean cuts of beef does make a difference.  If you’re not sure on what qualifies as a lean cut of beef, check out the lean beef section at Beef, it’s what’s for dinner.  They have a handy wallet card for download so that you can carry… [Continue Reading]

Today’s recipe was fun to make and very quick. … [Continue Reading]

Old Fashioned Homemade Pancakes Recipe – Basics

We are breakfast eaters around here so I can’t really afford to buy premade stuff like those bags full of pancakes or boxes of waffles.  It’s much cheaper to make my own from scratch and I have to say, much better tasting in my opinion.  They are very simple to make and even had my… [Continue Reading]
