Strawberry Upside-Down Cake

Posted on March 18, 2018 by Jamie H

Sweet, delicious but easy to make Strawberry Upside-Down Cake from scratch. Strawberries are coming! I’m starting to see them in stores. And any time I see strawberries, I have to come up with more strawberry recipes! This time I wanted to make a Strawberry Upside-Down Cake. I figured I would just adapt the standard pineapple upside-down cake, but substitute strawberries. However, I decided to run a search for strawberry upside-down cake on Pinterest first. I was mostly let down by the results, since it was a lot of cake mixes, jello, soda pop, and just not the way I like

Healthy Raspberry Oatmeal Cookies

Posted on August 21, 2017 by Jamie H

Fresh raspberries, oats and honey combine for healthy raspberry oatmeal cookies! My parents have thriving raspberry bushes, and every year they are generous enough to let me come and pick as many raspberries as I want. I always end up with plenty of juicy raspberries to bake with, make jam with, and eat fresh on our yogurt or cereal. Fresh raspberries (especially right off the bush) are such a delicious, summery flavor. I found this lovely recipe for healthy raspberry oatmeal cookies when last year’s raspberry harvest came in. I have tried and true raspberry recipes I love and make

Raspberry Lemonade Popsicles

Posted on July 24, 2017 by Jamie H

Refreshingly sweet and tart, these Raspberry Lemonade Popsicles are perfect for the hot summer weather! During the summer, my kids eat a lot of popsicles. I don’t like to buy the ones from the store that are basically just sugar and artificial dyes. And the ones made with real fruit are usually quite expensive, so we make our own, like these simple raspberry lemonade popsicles. Many years ago, I invested in a popsicle mold. I love that I can make my own popsicles with anything I want! After using a popsicle mold for a few years, I realized that I

Raspberry Sorbet

Posted on July 20, 2017 by Kerry

Raspberry Sorbet is a refreshing cold dessert that is low in calories. It is a perfect dessert for hot summer days. It is also dairy free. Has it been as hot as the surface of the sun at your house? It has been here. We’ve even had to bring the outdoor loving dog in during the afternoons. We’ve been eating tons of watermelon, sno-cones, ice cream and sorbet to help stay cool. Earlier this week I shared Chocolate Sorbet which is an amazing substitute for chocolate ice cream. Well, it’s just amazing regardless if you are steering clear of dairy

Triple Berry Crisp

Posted on July 6, 2017 by Lucy

Triple Berry Crisp is full of fresh berries, yummy oats & sweet brown sugar. It’s a perfect dessert for after berry picking or for all summer love! I love crisps! I think it’s the brown sugar or many the combination of the brown sugar & the oatmeal. But I absolutely love crisps! I made Apple Crisp all fall long & am also a big fan of Peach Crisp. {Related: Blueberry Crisp} But since it’s a long time before I’ll be harvesting peaches or apples, I decided to make a berry one. We had picked blackberries and blueberries when we were

Peach Tea

Posted on June 29, 2017 by Kerry

Peach Tea is another great cold drink for the summer. A sweet tea with refreshing peach flavor. You can make this as sweet as you want. When I think summer, I think bbq’s, fresh fruit, salads, and sweet tea. Summertime means hot days. You won’t catch me without a cold drink during the summer. My favorite is sweet iced tea. Our ice maker quit working this week and I was an unhappy camper. I need ice! Fortunately, it was a pretty easy fix and I have ice once again. I am once again drinking iced coffee and iced tea.

Fresh Strawberry Muffins are the best muffins I’ve ever had! * This post is part of our April Top 5. Check out the rest of the top 5. After making these fresh strawberry muffins for many years, I decided they needed updated pictures. These are always a huge hit when I take them to Bible study or a brunch, and people always ask for the recipe. However, my original pictures just aren’t that great. I feel like I’ve learned a bit, so I was able to add some nicer pictures to them and share this fabulous recipe with you again! Here’s

Very Green Spinach Salad

Posted on June 8, 2017 by Kerry

With spinach, broccoli, and avocados, Very Green Spinach Salad is very green. It also has dried cranberries, blueberries and sunflower seeds to add a little color. It’s also very flavorful. Summer has just begun and we’ve already several BBQ’s and all have been potluck style. I have another tonight. Salads have been the best thing to take. They are light but full of flavor. Some ideas of other salads to take to BBQ’s are Watermelon, Blueberry & Basil Salad; Broccoli & Jicama Coleslaw; Layered Salad; Pepperoni Pasta Salad; Nutty Broccoli Salad; Peas, Cheese & Pickles; Southwestern Macaroni Salad; 3 Bean
