Skinny Salisbury Steak

ss meal 2Talk about comfort food! I love, love, love this meal.

The salisbury steak is basically like a personal meatloaf patty, and it comes with mushroom gravy that I serve along with some mashed potatoes and a vegetable. Yum.

Chocolate Coconut Dream Bars

platter fullSpring is here which would normally mean that it is time for light citrus desserts or baked goods full of the season’s first strawberries and blueberries, but spring in Colorado usually means more snow. We have snow in the forecast again this week, so a chocolate toasty coconut bar just seemed right.

Carrot Cake

carrot cake 2I had really hoped to post this carrot cake before Easter because it seems like such a fitting dessert for the holiday–it’s what we had yesterday–but the end of the week and weekend were busier than I expected, and I struggled to get good pictures.

Carrot cake is not only good for Easter, though, it is a fabulous dessert for any occasion.

Easter Food Ideas

Lemon BarsSpringtime in Colorado: 70 degrees yesterday, blizzard conditions today. Snow is often the accompaniment to Easter around here; it is not unusual to see Easter dresses paired with snow boots. Honestly, if I think about it, it is like this in Colorado most of the time, not just in the spring. Always be prepared by packing shorts and snow boots.
