Food blogging is changing... and not all of it is for the better. 🚩

You’ve probably seen them: “perfect” food photos and “viral” recipes that are actually 100% AI-generated. They look beautiful, but there’s a catch - no one has actually cooked them.

At Thriving Home, we’re doing things the “old fashioned” way. Every recipe is tested in one of our kitchens until it’s ready for YOUR kitchen.

We’re talking real ingredients, real mess, trusted cooking tips you can trust.

Don’t let a robot tell you what’s for dinner. Stick with the humans who know what a 6 p.m. weeknight actually feels like. 👩‍🍳✨

Oven space is precious - don’t waste it on the ham! 🙅‍♀️🍖

This Crockpot Ham is a total game-changer. It’s “set it and forget it” at its finest, and it comes out perfectly juicy every single time.

Ingredients:
* 7-8 lb spiral-sliced, bone-in ham
* 1 cup water
* Optional: Pineapple or Cranberry Orange Sauce

How to do it:
👉 Place ham cut-side down in the crockpot with the water.
👉 Cook on LOW (approx. 2.5-3.5 hours) until it hits 135°F.
👉 Let it rest for 20 mins under foil before carving.

Hit the SAVE button so you have this ready for the holidays!

Or comment “RECIPE” and I will DM you the recipe to keep in your DMs.

Thinking about your Easter menu? Be sure to add these gluten-free, cheesy scalloped potatoes. Simple ingredients come together in one baking dish for a cozy side that pairs perfectly with a variety of main dishes.

Our recipe is a bit lighter than typical scalloped potatoes since we use a combo of chicken broth and heavy cream (no cream soups!). And by parboiling the potatoes, we cut the baking time down as well.
