If you love sweet onions with buttery potatoes, this dish is for you! Every time someone asks for the recipe they are pleased to hear how simple it is!

I came up with this recipe for strawberry cookies when we were given a lot of fresh strawberries and I had to figure out what to do with them! I hope everyone likes these cookies as much as my kids did.
Toad in the Hole
You know that something with a name like this is going to be good and this truly is! The traditional recipe itself is very simple but the method for making it is not, so I developed this "cold oven cheater method" which is much safer and easier. The end result is an amazing flavor and texture combination of juicy sausages, crispy, puffed, and tender Yorkshire pudding, and delicious onion gravy. And the gravy is so good you'll want to eat it on just about anything (and everything!)
