Thai Peanut Sauce

In my mind, you can’t have chicken satay without peanut sauce. This sauce is delicious and super easy to make. It isn’t just good with chicken satay, but just about any chicken! I will say that after you mix all the ingredients in the pot on the stove, take it off the heat and let…

Chicken Satay

We love Thai food over here at the Hartlines. It is one of our favorite meals. I love making my red curry soup with mango coconut rice (I can’t really call it sticky rice because I definitely am just using regular rice.) When we make Thai, this chicken satay is always on the menu. With…

Cheesy Potatoes

There are all kinds of names for these potatoes – potato casserole, funeral potatoes, company potatoes, etc. My one beef with the classic cheesy potato casserole is the cream of chicken soup. I really don’t care for it so my version has NO cream of anything, so if that is what you are looking for…

Creamy Macaroni and Cheese

If you are like me, you have tried several homemade versions of macaroni and cheese. Kids love it, parents will eat it – mac and cheese is a win win for the whole gang. I usually have a strict no processed cheese rule. I don’t buy american cheese slices for sandwiches or anything like that.…

Lemon Sheet Cake

When Spring gets here I always start to crave lemon treats. I’m not sure why because growing up in FL with a lemon tree in my backyard, the lemons were usually ripe late summer, fall. However, because of said lemon tree, we had lemon juice in our freezer all year round so if I am…

Brown Gravy Mix

If you are like me, I almost always forget something on my list at the grocery store. For some reason brown gravy mix is one of them. Taco seasoning used to be one of them too – which is why I started making my own! I have started doing this with brown gravy mix too.…

It is slow cooked in a crock pot or pressure cooker in brown gravy. We always like to make rouladen at Christmas…
