Spaghetti and Meatballs - A Very Simple Guide

Tytus helps me make spaghetti and meatballs for supper. You'll probably be surprised at how easy it is. We have had many compliments over our meatballs BUT it's about as simple as it gets. And watch for the secret ingredients with a tip for parents.

 
Also some bonus family footage of Tytus new birthday gift. It was delivered while we were cooking...so then Tytus bailed on me! HAHAHA

Easy Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnamon Rolls are the greatest snacks, desserts, and breakfast food! In this video, I make them from scratch using my own technique and the recipe for bread dough. https://www.tyronebcookin.com/2009/05/easy-bread-dough.html 

If you would rather not make the dough, buy pizza dough balls from your local grocer.

I do not use a sweetened dough for Cinnamon Rolls because there is enough added sweetness in the filling and glaze.

Easy Cake Hack!

When we were living on a ship in West Africa Stephanie developed a quick cake hack that made a box mix tastes 100x better but still used minimal ingredients. In this video, she makes a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting BUT the technique can be used on other cake flavors as well.

She makes the cake as instructed on the box and then...

See how she uses sour cream and pudding mix (and sometimes espresso) in today's video!

Making Hummus!

Our family spent some time in West Africa and one of our best food memories were these small places that served Lebanese food like shawarmas, falafel, fattoush, and ma'amoul. We found out both our kids love hummus(shocking!). And now hummus is a staple snack food at our house. Pretzels, carrots, cucumbers...We love it with a lot of different things!

Here is a link to the recipe we use - https://feelgoodfoodie.net/recipe/best-hummus/

Peanut Brittle! (and the secret to not breaking your teeth!)

 

We're making peanut brittle with the boys. Steph goes through the steps. The addition of the baking soda at the end creates air bubbles in the brittle. This maintains the crackly goodness of the brittle BUT keeps you from breaking your TEETH! It's DELICIOUS!
