Pumpkin Walnut Spice Bread

November 7, 2011 2 comments

I simply love this pumpkin spice bread recipe!  It has the perfect blend of spices and is so moist.  I’m a huge fan of a good banana nut bread but I’d say this pumpkin walnut bread knocks that out of first place. The original recipe doesn’t call for nuts but I decided to add a small amount of walnuts to half of the recipe.  The recipe makes two loaves so I made one with walnuts [...]

Cheese Broccoli Soup

Oh yeah, I know you want some of this!  With all it’s cheesy broccoli goodness! So creamy and oh so good.  I made broccoli cheese soup last year at this time but I like this recipe more I think.  Last year’s called for sharp cheddar cheese while this one uses creamy Velveeta.  I think that’s the difference.  Velveeta definitely makes it better!
