Pin for future reference!! Spicy Roasted Cauliflower is a perfect side dish for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It takes just five minutes to cut and toss it all together. Pop it in the oven for a flavorful, low carb side that pairs well with everything from poultry to beef and pork roasts. You can make the recipe as is. Or, like me, cut the red pepper flake quantity in half ( or omit it all together.) And use about half the garlic. Because I am a spice wimp! At which point you will have Quick and Easy Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower! At the store, choose a head of cauliflower that is uniform in coloring and free from browning. The cauliflower should be firm, heavy for its size with dense florets. The leaves should be fresh and green, a sign that the cauliflower was recently ... [Read More]

Enchilada Bake
Layered Enchilada Bake is deliciously easy. You get all the goodness and flavor of an enchilada without wrapping and tucking tortillas. And – IF – there are any left overs they are even better than the serving you had when they were freshly made! Begin by browning the ground beef. Drain excess grease and push the meat to one side to lightly saute the chopped onion. Stir in the can of corn and the enchilada sauce (mild or to your taste), plus the Taco seasoning mix. Bring to boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat when mixture reaches a boil. In the meantime, place two tortillas end to end in a 9x13 pan sprayed with cooking spray. Cut a third tortilla into 2 inch wide strips and place around the edges so that the bottom is fully covered. Spread half the sour ... [Read More]

Fall is here without a doubt! It was 96 degrees on Wednesday and has been in the fifties since with a biting wind and rain. The butterflies have been swarming around the flowers this week. Thanks to a butterfly class this past winter, I know the little yellow ones that come in great numbers are sulfur butterflies. There are a lot of painted ladies, not so many monarchs but it is maybe a little early for them. It is a delight to watch them! May you find delightful things this week!

Banana Nut Muffins
Banana Nut Muffins are a quick and easy breakfast, a delicious addition to any meal, a tasty snack and a life lesson. A life lesson?? Muffins are so easy to make that they are often the first baked item beginning cooks learn to make. A muffin recipe teaches how to follow directions, how to measure ingredients, and other basic cooking skills. (These are pretty darn good eating however, even if you are an experienced cook!) To make muffins, the dry ingredients are measured then whisked together in a large mixing bowl. Wet ingredients are measured and mixed together in a smaller bowl or large measuring cup. Then the wet ingredients and dry ingredients are put together and stirred just until they are mixed. Too much stirring makes muffins tough so some lumps are expected. ... [Read More]

Wheels and Bytes are excited to have tickets to the big football game in Capitol City this weekend. Football is a big deal in this part of the country. The whole state wears red no matter where they plan to be during the game. At least half the state packs up and heads east for home games and a bunch travel to every game in or out of state. Conversations for the following week center on football, the coach, the quarterback and how the team could have done better and --- I just smile. I understand none of it. Except the half time band -- that I get! I'm glad they get to go and are looking forward to it. I'm glad that you stopped by to share your awesome posts! Thank you.
