Pat’s Beach Taco Salad
A favorite beach memory for our family is Pat's Beach Taco Salad. Nothing about it is beachy, but our family always makes this main dish salad on any given beach week during the summer. Since there are four of us girls, there is a good chance we have included this in...
Mustard Pretzel Dip
Mustard Pretzel Dip is a great appetizer or party food! And it's super easy! Rumor has it that National Mustard Day is the first Saturday in August. Therefore, I'm giving you plenty of time to get ready with this Mustard Pretzel Dip! There’s a reason I don’t...
