    30 Containers for Covered Porches That Will Thrive in the Shade

    30 Containers for Covered Porches That Will Thrive in the Shade

    Some containers have all the sun. These shady planters, though, are having plenty of fun sans sun. We’ve gathered all of our favorite shade-loving containers to inspire your planting this season. If you have a shady yard or want to perk up a shaded spot in your home, at your front door, on your porch, or around your patio, put together a pretty shade-loving container that’s also easy to care for. Plants like caladiums and creeping Jenny will thrive in the shade, and they’ll also add great color and movement to your planters. If you’re looking for the best plants for the shade and great flowers that thrive in shade, also reach for impatiens, coleus, sweet potato vines, mazus, vincas, torenias, violas, petunias, pansies, hellebores (Lenten roses), hostas, astilbes, and trilliums. They look great and will thrive in full to partial shade. Shade-loving flowers aren’t too hard to find. Ask around at your local garden store, and you’ll be able to locate the ingredients and put together any one of these shade-tolerant container ideas. Also, in regards to your container, don’t forget to think vertical. We love pots and planters, but a hanging basket is another great option, as is an elevated planter, which will make a statement and take advantage of any vertical space.

Sheet Pan Nachos
Credit: Greg DuPree
It wouldn’t be an appropriate game-day spread unless nachos are involved. Trust us, you’d be hard-pressed to find an easier appetizer for your Super Bowl party. Form follows function when it comes to nachos, starting with layers upon layers of crunchy tortilla chips, melted cheese, ground beef, refried beans, and delicious toppings. Nachos are the ultimate crowd pleaser, but the dish is versatile enough to incorporate different flavorful swaps. While there’s nothing wrong with the standard Tex-Mex favorite, we’ve abandoned the nacho norm in favor of new fillings and tortilla substitutes. So go ahead and splurge a little on game day! Try tater tots for the base or eating nachos for breakfast like we’ve showcased here. No matter who you’re rooting for on Super Bowl Sunday, a little football paired with one of these 12 easy nachos recipes is an automatic win-win!

Recipe: Slow-Cooker Beef Nachos

Beef nachos are a go-to, simple meal, and you can dress them up however you like. For this recipe, we take them to the next level by starting with a boneless beef rump roast rather than ground beef. Top your tortilla chips with the beef, cover it all with beans, tomatoes, onions, and cheese, and in a few minutes prepare to be amazed.
