Lots of ground beef to use right now so I am trying to make different things so the kids don’t realize the meat is the same thing every night. This recipe for Saucy Asian Meatballs is from Bear With Me at Chef Jenny.com. I must confess that I followed the recipe just as it…

I am a Mom of two that loves my family and all things Disney. I have been playing a game to see how many different meals I can make each weekday. These are our adventures in food and life.
Individual Barbecue Cheddar Meat Loaves
Though the temperature on our vacation in Florida left me feeling limp and tired all the time the cold here is not helping anything either. It has warmed up a bit lately but the dampness is still leaving me with that feeling of deep inside my bones cold no matter what the thermometer says. So,…
Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken
I realized as I looked through my Pinterest account for dinner inspirations that most of my pins lately have been Chinese/Asian influenced dishes. I think because they are usually fairly simple to prepare and I can add vegetables of my choosing as a side I am drawn to them. This Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken…
Spaghetti Squash and Meatballs
So, after our last check ups we are trying to change our diets a bit. We are not making any big changes but trying to substitute brown rice, vegetables and sweet potatoes for white rice, pasta and potatoes two to three days a week. Not a huge change but this was one of the first…
Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie
I love, love, love, love my slow cooker. I love that I can put the ingredients in the crock in the morning and by dinner time I have this delicious dish. Everyone came in the house this evening and commented on how wonderful dinner smelled. If you are not using your slow cooker at least…
Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken with Loaded Tater Tots
Happy Valentine’s Day! From the frying pan into the fire. We are always busy but on the day after we got home from vacation my daughter had a choir concert. I needed to have dinner ready to go and be able to serve it to three different people at three different times. We usually don’t…
Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza
Returning home after a wonderful vacation is never easy. It was tough coming back home after two weeks away in sunny Florida. When we left it was about O degrees, normal temperature with a windchill about -20. When we arrived in Florida they were having record tying or higher temperatures of 88-89 degrees with 90%…
Pork Fried Rice
One last To-Go dinner before vacation! I am ready to burst with excitement. We are heading to Walt Disney World. I am a master planner so I have breakfasts and dinners booked for our stay. Half are our old favorites such as Biergarten, Crystal Palace and Cape May Cafe’ and the rest are new to…
Sausage Hash Casserole
Two more nights until vacation. Two more meals to try to create from my quickly dwindling pantry and refrigerator supplies. We are surprising our son with the vacation so every time he asks, “Why don’t you just go to the store and get x or y?” I have to tell him that it’s not pay…
Meatloaf Parmesan
We are leaving in just a few days for a two-week vacation! I can’t wait. I have been following the temperatures in Orlando, Florida and although they have been colder than normal lately next week is predicted to be highs of 70-80. That is almost 100 degrees warmer than it is here right now. I…
The Imagine Award
I was amazed when Meagen, from Chaos and Cookies, http://chaosandcookies.com/ nominated me for the Imagine Award. I have been writing this blog for two years now an wasn’t even sure people understood what I was trying to do for my family. This is an amazing way for bloggers to show support and appreciation for…
Ranch Baked Boneless Pork Chops
Friday was another Snow Day. It wasn’t so much for the snow but the negative wind chills that had them closing schools. When it starts to get down to -20 I want warm comfort food. I had a package of boneless pork steaks in my refrigerator. I started searching the web for a recipe that…
