Chicken is the meat of August I guess. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts were $1.69 a pound on sale so of course I had to buy over 12 pounds of them. I never could resist a sale. For some women it is shoes, for me it is meat. So I have cut some up into chunks,…

Slow Cooker Potatoes Au Gratin with Kielbasa
This dish didn’t turn out like I expected it to at all. It was actually better than what I thought it would be! I am trying to use my slow cooker as much as I can right now. The grocery store had 2 lb. bags of frozen diced potatoes on sale this week. Of course…
Crispy Parmesan Zucchini Chips II
My daughter had a friend over for dinner last night. I asked if there was anything she didn’t like and the only answer I got was spaghetti. Well, I wasn’t going to serve that anyway so I thought I was fairly safe. But, I don’t do kid food very well. We are not a hamburger,…
Slow Cooker Hot Sandwich

Pan Fried Pork Steaks
Things are finally starting to slow down here. School will start a month from today. Boo! I love having my kids home for the summer. This is the first time they have had 12 weeks off for summer vacation. Usually we get about 7-8 but since we moved and the school year here is shorter…
German Style Pigs in the Blanket Casserole
As you can probably tell from most of my posts my favorite things to cook are casseroles, skillet dinners and slow cooker dinners. They let me mix all the ingredients together, walk away and let it cook. Yes, I enjoy the fancy dinners once in a while, but right now my family life comes first…
Slow Cooker Sausage Breakfast Casserole
My family loves breakfast for dinner. They would like it if I made breakfast for them 3 times a day. I like breakfast foods just not as much as they do. I had a package of breakfast sausage I wanted to use so I searched for a recipe that thought everyone would like and would…
Pepperoni and Sausage Calzones
I like to make things easier on myself when I can. A few months ago I bought a Fleishmann’s Italian Herb Bread Mix when it was on sale and I had a coupon. Yes, I try to shop as cheaply and simply as I can. But, it has been sitting in my cupboard since…
