After a long weekend of being sick and not being able to tolerate any solids I am at least back to cooking. Not eating but cooking. This was a dish that my children helped create because we needed to get everything ready to go to dance class and I was trying to figure out how…

Pizza Lasagna
This has been a rough week. I am not motivated to cook or be creative at all. I am waiting to the last possible second to start dinners and I end up scrambling around to see what we have to make. I am thankful for my list of monthly meals to choose from but sometimes,…
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…
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…
Spaghetti Pie II – with Ricotta Cheese
This is normally how I make Spaghetti Pie. I tried the sour cream and cream cheese version that I found on Pinterest a few weeks ago (recipe here) but I prefer this Spaghetti Pie. For my family it was a toss-up. They liked them both for different reasons. My son hates ricotta cheese so I…
Manwhich Casserole
So during the school year we travel an hour, each way, to dance classes 3 days a week. That means after school we immediately get in a car and head out. Even now during the summer we are still heading out 2 days a week. So, I need meals that are quick, easy and can…
Spaghetti Pie
My family loves Spaghetti Pie but this is not the normal recipe we use. Being on a strict budget after vacation at the beginning of the month I did not have any ricotta cheese in the house and trying to finish out my “No Buy July” (except for fresh fruits and vegetables) I had to…
Italian Sausage Skillet Dinner
This is another one of those recipes that I started with what I could find on-line and then ventured off into unknown territory as I was missing some of the ingredients in the original recipe from Pillsbury.com for Skillet Lasagna. This was again a dinner for my family to eat on-the-go. It traveled well although…
Cheesy Hamburger Casserole
So this was definitely a I am really not too sure what I am making but our refrigerator contents are getting low and all I have is ground beef, meal. My children do not like plain old hamburgers or cheeseburgers and I was running out of time to get dinner on the table. Then the…
Cheeseburger Frittata
As we are finishing eating out of our pantry, refrigerator and freezer to clean them all out it is getting harder and harder to come up with meals. The only thing I am buying is a few fresh fruits and vegetables and dairy. Other than that ingredients must all come from staples found in my…
Tater Tot Taco Casserole
So lately dinner has been taking a “surprise” meat, I didn’t label anything in the freezer (oops) and we are in the process of cleaning out the freezer and pantry by eating only from them for a few weeks, no new groceries except for fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs and milk; then opening it the next…
