This week’s meals have lots to love! From a hot & melted cheesy pizza take on the famous Philly Cheesesteak sandwich to a fabulously light & easy entrée salad of pork tenderloin, salad greens and plump berries, everything you need for a delicious week is right here at your finger tips!

These are meals that we enjoy here at The Cottage on the regular. And I know you will too! Their semi-homemade approach and cooking prep short cuts make these family dinners ideal for busy week nights. But they are also put together enough that you will enjoy serving them to friends & family who stop by for a bite and some good company.

Making Breakfast Easy

What good southerner can resist anything named hummingbird? Moist and tender Hummingbird Banana Bread is loaded with sunny pineapples, ripe bananas, sweet coconut and buttery pecans. Just like the classic southern Hummingbird Cake, this dense quick bread will be your new favorite for a little taste of the tropics!

Here’s What We’re Snacking On

Ham & Pineapple Hawaiian Dip is a richly creamy, savory and lightly sweet dip loaded with smoky ham, crushed pineapple, cream cheese, green onions, chopped pecans and a dollop of real mayonnaise. An effortless, make ahead appetizer this dreamy dip delivers a truly delicious wow!

Similar to a cheese ball, these Hawaiian flavors with sweet pineapple and savory ham make for a great make ahead dip

Dessert This Week!

This uncommonly moist and indulgent German Chocolate Cake recipe uses my mamaw’s old fashioned, homemade coconut pecan frosting to create hands down, THE BEST German Chocolate Cake ever!  It’s also a reader favorite.
