It has become a tradition in my house that every Christmas morning while we are opening Christmas presents and stockings that we enjoy homemade pumpkin bread and coffee with the girls enjoying a cold glass of milk.

My all-time favorite Christmas cookie!

This pizza is perfect for late summer or early fall when the Palisade peaches are in season.

One of my go-to recipes when I’m short on time but don’t want to serve something that is short on flavor!

I’ve served this dish for breakfast, lunch and dinner (obviously not on the same day) and it is especially tasty if one is perhaps suffering from a hangover!

Over the years my family has developed a tradition of having pizza on Friday nights. In the beginning we would sometimes order the pizza but as time progressed, we started making our own pizza and now we hardly ever order out.

The recipe is wonderfully simple but can be tweaked as needed. For my rendition, I decided to through in some cut veggies on the bottom which included onions, butternut squash, a parsnip and mushrooms, then I placed the chicken on top of the veggies.

If you are interested in making your own bread and in the market for a useful book, I highly recommend this one and the recipes that are in it!
