Pumpkin Pecan Waffles with Cinnamon Whip Cream

Ok, so I'm a little nutty for pumpkin right now.  My kids have started a revolt with all this pumpkin, but I still love pumpkin anything so the cooking will go on. I couldn't believe I hadn't posted these last year on the blog.  These waffles are a favorite of our family this time of year.   This recipe makes a TON of waffles, but they freeze really well, so cook them and have a quick breakfast during the busy week.
Feel free to use maple syrup, but I liked the whipped cream on these.  Not to sweet, but a wonderful cinnamon flavor on top of these pumpkin treats.  Enjoy the pumpkin, for soon it will be gone, so sad!

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Fruit and Almonds

Chicken salad sandwiches seem to be the go to item for baby and bridal showers.  I wanted to make some for the baby shower, but had a dillema.   While I like the main components in the salad, I really do not like the taste of raw onions and celery.  However, I still wanted some crunch and flavor in the salad.

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

The name says it all. These cookies are my (and my husband's) favorite cookies! Not just your average chocolate chip cookies, these babies come out of the oven with a slightly crisp outside while still remaining soft on the inside. Use Ghiradelli Milk Chocolate Chips and you will have achieved chocolate chip cookie perfection!
