Growing up my family wasn’t really a cake eating family. When we celebrated birthdays or holidays it was inevitably with pie, brownies, or ice cream desserts. One of the family favorite desserts was peanut buster parfait ice cream dessert. When this would be pulled out no one skipped out on dessert. Peanut buster parfait ice cream dessert is a 13X9 ice cream cake with layers of crushed Oreos, vanilla ice cream, peanuts, and homemade chocolate sauce.

This dessert for a person who wants to prep before holidays or family gatherings. Make this peanut buster parfait before the mad rush of the event and pop it in the freezer so you can be the dessert hero when the big day comes.

Everyone has their secret to the perfectly cooked steaks. It can be the pat of butter at the end of cooking or a special blend of herbs and spices or even the art of choosing the perfect steak. For me, it is cooking it properly to leave it full of flavor. I want flavoring added to the outside of a steak to complement the beef, not overpower it. All-American Steaks require two simple ingredients of Italian dressing and Worcestershire sauce to form a marinade that does its job in 30 minutes and ready for a hot grill.

These steaks are full proof. You can guarantee the money you put into the steaks will turn out just fine when you use this marinade combination to make these All-American Steaks on the grill.

Chili is an easy go-to meal at our house. Everyone in our house loves chili. When eating low carb things like chili can become a challenge. Here in Indiana lots of people put pasta in their chili. Everything from spaghetti noodles to macaroni can be found in a traditional Hoosier chili. I was raised on a bean and ground beef chili. Beans can also be a carb killer. This is why I had to figure out a way to have low-carb chili or I wouldn’t make it through an Indiana winter.

Low-Carb Chili is the perfect combination of flavors with a base of smokey bacon, onions and ground beef that becomes perfection with the addition of tomatoes and chili seasonings.
