Enchilada Sauce Mix
I love food with Southwest flair.  I could eat it every day of the week and not get tired of it.  Enchilada sauce is not just good on enchiladas.  It’s also yummy over eggs and in casseroles.  Each batch yields about the same…

Instant Pesto Mix
With pesto a little goes a long way for a delicious fresh flavor. It’s nice to have a jar of this mix on hand as a pantry staple, especially if you use Pesto a lot.

Brownie Mix
Brownies…..savor the thought for a minute.  They are the perfect accent for unexpected company, potluck suppers, afterschool snacks….any time really.  Had a baby?  Here’s a brownie.  Experienced loss? I’ll bring a whole pan. I can’t think of a time a brownie isn’t appropriate.…
