This recipe is my easy,  weeknight , time crunched, crowd-pleasing salsa recipe. This recipe is almost my Aunt Jana’s recipe. Her recipe actually calls for garlic powder but after multiple attempts with the powder we’ve decided we prefer fresh garlic but if you happened to be out, use about 1 tsp of powder. This is [...]

I’ve already blogged about Roasted Tomato Salsa before. That recipe is still our favorite.

I’ve been craving spinach dip so decided to whip up a batch as a little appetizer before dinner tonight. I definitely prefer hot spinach dips over the cold, which is what I’ve always made in the past. I’m not a big fan of all the mayo and sour cream in the cold dips. And I [...]
