These quick and easy pumpkin cheesecake bars are going to be a hit with family and friends. If someone says they don't like pumpkin, we think they'd still like this dessert. The crust has a savory butter taste. It's gooey, yet crunchy at the same time. Cream cheese and sugar make the filling sweet and creamy. The pumpkin flavor...

The aroma coming from the kitchen while this is cooking is heavenly. We chose to oven roast the recipe and it turned out amazing - perfectly juicy and moist. The rosemary and thyme herb mix is divine. When roasted, it forms an aromatic crust around the outer edge of the roast. Serve with a side of potatoes and carrots for a...

We love how these sweet potatoes are prepared. Cutting into chunks and not mashed, gives the potatoes a bit of extra texture. The sweet sauce poured on top is amazing! Of course, we had to top with a bit more marshmallows. This will be an impressive side dish at your holiday gathering.

My only claim to this recipe is that it was the way my mom made stuffing for our Thanksgiving Turkey and I was lucky enough to find it after she passed away.  This recipe is one of many my mom was taught to make at the Pope School of Cooking.  None of this prepared stuffing mix, this is from scratch, tastes wonderful and is so...

Fantastic meatballs with a holiday flair. Using a combination of beef and pork for the homemade meatballs gave them a wonderful flavor. The seasonings are subtle but keep the meatballs from being plain. The slightly sweet and full of tang sauce is what makes these special. Chili sauce and cranberry sauce are amazing together. We...

When wondering what to make for dinner, give this Alfredo sauce a try. It's a very simple recipe with only four ingredients. It's easy to make and does not take a lot of time. The end result is a rich and creamy sauce. You can put this on a big bowl of pasta or even homemade pizza.

I loved the use of croissants in this recipe.  It made the bready part of the recipe really light and flaky.  And the custard part of the recipe ... well that was just delicious. This would be a wonderful dessert during the holidays.

Not only was this super easy to make it was also super delicious! The top has a slight crunch and the inside is soft and creamy. I tried it at room temp when it was slightly warm with a dollop of whipped cream and it was perfect. I also tried it after cooling in the fridge and it's great that way too.

Sweet potatoes on the holidays are a staple side dish. These candied ones are simple to make and divine. They're filled with butter, sugar, and spice. By cooking in the cast iron, the potatoes are tender and sweet with little crispy edges. If you want to get real fancy, sprinkle with some chopped pecans.

One bite and we see why this is the only banana bread recipe that Jody's family uses. This banana bread is easy, moist, delicious and full of banana flavor. We like the idea of using a Bundt pan. It makes for a beautiful presentation.

Unlike Crawfish Etoufee, this rich creamy dish is so simple, with only a handful of ingredients, yet very flavorful. Some recipes get too complicated and the original Crawfish Monica recipe just didn't have all that stuff in it. Try this for yourself and see what I mean. Use ONLY Louisiana Crawfish - Not Chinese.
