Irish Corned Beef Tacos with Guinness Sauce

Another of our most favorite dinners. This is a super easy delicious use for leftover corned beef! I am a bit late today in posting but my son had his 5th Grade Walk-Away Ceremony today.  It was really a beautiful ceremony.  After the awards were handed out they announced each child’s name and then they…

Chicken French

While we are on vacation I hope you will enjoy some of our favorite dinners! This Chicken French recipe is really popular in our house. Chicken French is an a dish that is very popular in Rochester, New York.  The dish which is a version of Veal or Chicken Francaise actually has its own version…

Cheeseburger Burritos

We are on vacation for a long weekend and I am re-posting some of our favorite and most popular meals. Hope you enjoy! Have a great weekend! It has been a great vacation. The kids are returning from 12 days at camp. We got 3 letters from our son. They were cute. He said the…

Pineapple Chicken

We did a small grocery shop this past weekend for some meat and essentials rather than our usual big monthly shop. We have some expenses coming up this month that we wanted to be sure we had enough in reserves to pay for. But, with boneless, skinless chicken breasts for $1.59 a pound? Couldn’t pass…

Seafood Salad

Let’s get this out-of-the-way first. I grew up with “imitation” crab meat. I don’t think I ever tasted real crab or lobster until I was well into my 20s. It was just what we had. Now, I know there is this thing about real crab versus imitation crab. I get it. Real crab is delicious….

Muffaletta

This would make an outstanding addition to a Super Bowl Party! It can be made the morning of the party or the night before and it’s ready to go when the party starts! My kids wanted to try “authentic” food from New Orleans.  Every so often my children decide they want to try food from…

Meal 2 – Chicken, Bacon, Ranch Pizza

So, we started this meal yesterday with Meal 1 –  Baked Chicken Nuggets (click for link to post). I made an extra pound of chicken nuggets so that I could have leftovers for dinner tonight. I am personally NOT a fan of leftovers but if I can make them into something completely new I am fine…

Meal 1 – Baked Chicken Strips

Even though I make many “different” meals for my family they still want “kid” food once in a while. I am not a believer in that there are kids foods and adult foods. Kids menus and foods began back in the 1920s because prior to that time most parents dined out without children. Starting in…

Hollywood & Vine Character Breakfast

First of all let me set the record straight. Yes, we are Disney fans but we are not a breakfast family. Brunch sure, love it. But, breakfast means we have to get up and actually leave the hotel room early (or as in before 9 am). But, we have learned on the day we leave…

Porcupine Meatballs with Gravy

Getting down to the end of the month and grocery day is right around the corner! I do one big shop a month so we are in the last week before stock up day. Trying to use those little last pieces of meat in the freezer and wanting to stretch them farther I added cooked…

Slow Cooker White Turkey Chili

If you have read my blog before you know I am all about using every little last piece of something we have in our freezer, pantry and refrigerator before it spoils. That means I have to rotate my pantry shelves from time to time. When putting away your groceries in your pantry stock them like…
