I have a feeling I am going to be making lots of soups and casseroles until after Christmas. Time seems to be slipping away from me. I am thankful that I had almost all my Christmas shopping done before Thanksgiving. I like to have it all done and wrapped by December 1st so I can…

Hoisin Barbecue Hot Dogs
This is a very strange picture. I get that. But, this dinner was one I needed to get ready on the fly. They look much better in a hot dog bun, but we were out of those. Every once in a while I need to make hot dogs. Not my first pick for a meal…
Barbecue Sauce Hot Dogs with Various Toppings.
Barbecue Hot Dog with Caramelized Onions and Broccoli Slaw I try to make dinners for my family that are different and tasty. I try to round out each meal with a salad and vegetable. To be honest I try to get 2 vegetables at each meal I can in addition to the salad. But, we…
My Take on James Beard’s Recipe for Beef Hash
I had about 3/4 of a pound of Slow Cooker German Style Beef Roast leftover from the other night. I am one to use every little last bit of food possible and let nothing go to waste. Lately I have not done such a good job as I had to throw out an entire roast…
Slow Cooker German Style Beef Roast
I had another beef roast in the freezer. The first thing I thought was “Oh no, not again.” It seems we have a beef roast lately at least once a week and I was running out of ideas of what to do with it to make into a different meal for my family. Well, back…
Slow Cooker Hungarian Goulash
My slow cooker has been working over time lately. I love that I can put a bunch of stuff in it early in the morning and then not have to think about dinner until I come home or I am getting the kids ready for our to go meals. I found this recipe on Pinterest…
Ravioli Casserole
Time seems to be slipping away lately. I need to stretch the 24 hour days into 30. But, since I don’t think that is going to happen I need to work smarter not harder. So, to that this uses frozen ravioli with a homemade sauce. Yes, you can used jarred sauce or whatever you like…
Balsamic Onion Slow Cooker Roast
Last night being Halloween I wanted something extra easy to have for dinner. This was it! I took our favorite flavors and blended them with a beef roast in the slow cooker. I only had to add mashed potatoes and carrots for our comfort food dinner before heading out on the spooky, cold evening. Verdict:…
Soba Noodles with Spicy Ground Beef Sauce
Last night’s dinner was another – Oh no! I need to find something quick meal. What I thought was Italian sausage was really ground beef. A quick look through Pinterest, because that is what we all do when we need something quick, and I found Szechuan Noodles with Spicy Beef Sauce from Food.com. I did…
Steak with Butter and Garlic Sauce
This has been a pork month. When I grocery shopped the first of the month every store we grocery shop in had pork on sale. We have had pork roasts, pork chops, pork ribs and ground pork. The other thing that was on sale was smoked sausages. We are tired of pork and sausages. I…
Pizza Hot Dogs
We just returned home from a week vacation back to New York. Though it was a fun time it was BUSY! We visited friends and laughed until our faces ached and our sides hurt. The kids danced in a Feis. We went to a 96th birthday dinner for my mother-in-law. Had an orthodontist appointment for…
