Show and Tell Tuesday - Best Recipes

Happy Tuesday, friends!  Today we're linking up and sharing our very BEST recipes.  I love looking through people's recommendations and trying out new recipes and can't wait for today!



I've shared a lot of my BEST recipes here on the blog over the years and I've been going back and trying to find them all and post them on the recipes tab at the top of the blog.  For today I'm going to share a few of my very favorites (although you should know that any recipe I share is a favorite... a tried and true one that we love!)




A student made me a Dr.Pepper cake one of my first years of teaching and I thought about it FOR EVER before trying it out on my own.  At this point I can make this cake in my sleep!  A family favorite and a simple (and moist!) twist on a regular chocolate cake.  The hint of cinnamon  puts it over the top!

I'm pretty much counting down the days until it's "fall enough" to make these.  They're the perfect size and the cream cheese icing is amazing!  They're cute and great to serve at a party or bring to a luncheon.


One of my very favorite comfort foods - this chicken pot pie has a homemade filling that you'll want to eat with a spoon!



This soup pretty much makes itself.  Seriously.  You just dump the ingredients in your crockpot and you're done!  And you wouldn't guess that AT ALL when you taste it!

This is my mom's recipe and is great because you can use the basic method and then add in whatever you have in your fridge (meat, cheese, veggies).  There's no crust so there's less guilt than a regular quiche and this reheats GREAT for an easy breakfast as well.


This is one of the first recipes I shared and it's one of my most popular blog posts EVER!  
(Note to self... redo this recipe with much better pictures because this pile of meat looks AWFUL!)

This recipe is only a handful of ingredients and the meat comes out super tender and flavorful.  It's great served on a roll, cold on a sandwich, over rice or just straight out of the crockpot.  I bring this to potlucks often and it's always a huge hit.  I love that it cooks all day and there's minimal work for me to do when I get home from school.

Anybody else reeeeeeally hungry? :) 

Link up your best recipes below and happy meal planning!

  9. So excited to read everyone's recipes. I was able to snag an Instant Pot during the Amazon Prime sale and I can't wait to try new things!! I made your bacon ranch potato salad this past weekend and I looooved it! The lemon definitely threw me off, but I love lemon and figured why not. It's a wonderful tang and actually a refreshing twist to traditional potato salad.
