Main Dish

Life with kids is hectic, add to that a full-time job, farm and all of the other things quick and easy meals are the only kind we’ve got time for.  Meal time can be stressful, but the recipes don’t have to be! 

A few meals that we serve regularly without any complaints are Spaghetti Pizza, Pizza Sliders, Bacon Cheeseburger Pie and Instant Pot Pulled Pork.

We have a few recipes that feel fancy, but don’t take much time.  Farmhouse Ham Loaf and Ham Balls top that list!  Also on the list is Instant Pot Chicken & Bacon Carbonara.

When our green peppers ripen in the garden these Sausage and Cream Cheese Stuffed Peppers are a regular on the table!

And let’s be honest, we love breakfast anytime of the day.  Whether it’s a basic Egg, Sausage and Brioche Casserole, Bacon Casserole or Quick Oatmeal Waffles, sometimes making brinner (breakfast for dinner) is just easier.

Please let me know if there is a particular type of recipe that you are looking for and maybe we have a classic that could be shared or maybe we can develop a new one!
