Most Delicious Life
Food * Family * Fun
A mother and daughter sharing our best food, and our secrets to living the happy life with the goal of helping us all create a stronger family unit.
Orange Swirls
These are MY FAVORITE sweet rolls. As soon as I see snow in the forecast I buy oranges, I have to be prepared! It's also my favorite way to use my mother in law's recipe for Roll Dough. This recipe is cut down from the original to make 2 9x13 dishes of rolls or 24...
Bruschetta Dip
Bruschetta Dip is a good way to trick your friends and family into believing that you put forth a lot of effort into being so fancy for them! A spreadable cheese layer topped with tomatoes, fresh basil and a balsamic glaze. DONE! The colors are gorgeous and it really...
Lentil Soup
Do you like lentil soup? Have you ever tried it? You really really should. I have noticed lentil soup on more restaurant menus in recent years. Lentil Soup is truly a throw-back to a time when soaking beans for dinner was a regular thing. My grandma Mott used to make...
Southwest Hot Beef Sandwich
This is great for any lunch, game day or party! So filling it can make a whole meal. Steaming the pot roast is a great way to have shredded beef on hand and can be used for so many things! For this sandwich we are going to add some southwest ZING. Place the roast in a...
Sweet and Sour Meatballs
I have made this dinner since I was a newlywed and it is still one of the best things I make. It has become a family staple and we LOVE it. It's a fabulous family dinner but also great for company! These meatballs are PERFECTION and I use this same recipe for basic...
Cranberry Walnut Oatmeal Cookies
Oatmeal cookies are always good, but these are GREAT! Loaded with extras they are almost like a homemade granola bar! My daughter eats them for breakfast. If you are like me you will throw in some white chocolate chips while you're at it! Just whip the shortening and...
Irish Stew
This delicious and hearty stew has the most wonderful tomato undertones. I usually make it on the stovetop, but I also love to have it quick and ready in the Instant Pot, or slow cook it all day in the crock pot. I have been messing with this recipe based off of half...
Cinnamon Rolls
It's a snowy day in Denver, Colorado. The kids are all home for Spring Break. A perfect day for Cinnamon Rolls. Cinnamon Rolls are a big tradition in our family. My mom rarely made them. Her thing was Sticky Buns. My mother-in-law has handed down the cinnamon roll...
Roll Dough
This is a Myrna Ritz Approved recipe. This is the recipe that people most often ask me for when they find out I am her daughter in law. It became "famous" when my husband was young. Their church congregation needed money to fund a new building. Many of the women, men...
Fresh Broccoli Salad
This is one of the BEST salads I have ever tasted! Wherever we go, it always becomes a favorite for everyone who tries it. This is a recipe I grew up with. It's something my mom, Colleen Mott used to make. The combination of the four ingredients; broccoli, grapes,...
