Lulu's Green Sauce Enchiladas!!


This weekend Ray, my prince charming and I celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary. I wanted to make him something amazing, something that says, "Te Amo!" (I love you!) and "thank you for picking me and for being such an amazing husband!" Well, my good friend Lulu invited us for dinner a few weeks ago and made our taste buds do the happy dance with these amazing enchiladas. So, she was nice enough to share it with me and now I want to share it with you. These enchiladas are so easy and soooooo.....yummy, if you try them I guarantee they will be a hit. Even my picky eater Nathan asked for thirds! So thank you Lulu....you're the best :)

They are creamy and cheesy and so delicious!!

Love Cake Pops!!


Anyone who knows me, knows that I love making cake pops. When I make them I don't really eat more than one or two but I love the smiles I see when my kids, friends, or whoever bites into one of these little delicious wonders. This week I had the privilege of making a lot of these for some very special people and I hope they enjoyed them.

Italian Rotini Salad

It's hot outside and I really don't feel like turning on the stove or oven right now. As I thought about sharing something yummy and fresh this Italian Salad came to mind. This salad once again, is inspired by my friend Diana. She makes the exact same salad except she uses bow tie pasta.  It is very easy to put together and it is very satisfying!

Here is what you need:


16oz bag of multicolor Rotini pasta
2.25oz sliced olives
8oz package of peperoni
(I don't use the whole bag...you can make a pizza with the leftovers)
4 celery chopped celery stalks
2 tomatoes chopped
1 cup mozzarella cheese
Italian Dressing (any flavor will do)

Southwestern Chicken Wrap

Today I want to share something easy and delicious. These Southwestern Chicken Wraps were created by my dear friend Diana. She is always coming up with some good stuff. It doesn't take much time to prepare these wraps and you could add whatever you like to them. I just like the flavors that Diana put together and that's what I stick with.



 Besides one or two ingredients you might already have some of these ingredients
 in your pantry or fridge.

Creamy Spinach Pasta

My kids were at camp last week so to welcome them home yesterday I wanted to make them something that screams, "Welcome Home!" This pasta dish is super easy and very affordable. Since back to school shopping has drained both my energy and wallet this recipe was perfect for the occasion.


The ingredients are few.
And this serves 8-10 people at about $1.38 a serving!!
Love it :)

Spicy Cajun Chicken Pasta

This is hands down one of my favorite comfort foods! I adapted this recipe from The Pioneer Woman Cooks. The kids love it, the hubby loves it, my friends love it! A lot of love with this dish. Well, yesterday we had some wonderful friends over for dinner, Gabriel and  Lulu, with their two beautiful babies. We had some good food and some good laughs. That is what it's all about!



This dish is delicious with a creamy sauce and a little spicy kick.
