    I am so anxious and excited waiting for your cookbook to come out on sale. I can’t save all the emails or print them all out. Your book will be my Cooking Bible.

    I love the Barbecue Meat Loaf. It is the only meat loaf I make now. I put ketchup on at the table. Some habits die hard.

        I used to make a meatloaf with a topping of mustard, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce. It was just the right sweet and savory together. I’m a ketchup girl but no ketchup needed on this one. I’d have to look it up as I haven’t made it in a long time but I think it was put on top of the meatloaf at half time so the sugar wouldn’t burn.

    They honey mustard chicken was soooooo gooood. I used sweet and spicy mustard to get a different flavor and it’s going into the monthly rotation bc it was delicious and easy for a busy school/work day!

    Help. In the recipe for Instant Pot Greek Chicken Pitas, does the nutrition count include the cream cheese or is it strictly for “chicken only”? I have a good recipe for low carb pitas and this will be an awesome filling, even if it doesn’t include the cream cheese.
