Hopscotch Crunchies
My mom has been making these delectable squares since I was a kid!! It’s a crunchy, nutty, butterscotch square with fluffy marshmallows. They’re delicious! My mom got this recipe for Hopscotch Crunchies (that’s what they’re called in the cookbook!) from a Ukrainian cookbook called Baba’s Cookbook (pictured below), and I slightly adjusted the recipe (mainly…
Avocado Pesto Pasta
We bought a small bag of avocados, and have been eating them all week in bbq chicken rice bowls, chili and we decided to use the rest up on this delicious avocado pesto pasta. It’s like guacamole on pasta — it’s so good! And a dish I’ll make any time we have a bunch of…

Spaghetti Pizza
I made plenty of pasta and sauce yesterday so I could freeze some sauce, and have leftovers to make spaghetti pizza which is one of our favorites! We had spaghetti pizza at a local pizza shop and it was simply delicious that we often make it at home. It’s hearty, filling and oh so good,…
