CHANGE! This has become my motto lately. I get frustrated when I go into an office or a business to speak with a manager or someone in charge and about an issue I have with customer service or a product and they give me the answer, “But, we have always done it this way.” That…
Chicken, Green Bean and Stuffing Casserole (no creamed soups!)
Casseroles never photograph well, unless they are whole. But, boy do they taste great. I think it is the whole comfort food thing that we are all seeking right now. My entire family has been fighting a cold for about two weeks now. No one has been horribly sick but everyone is just feeling blah….
Three Generations at Walt Disney World
The first picture is 2007 and the second is 2015. This is my father, my brother and my son who all share the same name. I have lots of reasons to love Walt Disney World. But one of the main reasons is all the memories we have tied to it. We have traveled with grandparents,…
Perfect Oven Roasted Chicken
Lately it seems that I cannot get it together enough to cook on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Tuesdays are the worst because from 1:00 or 2:00 pm until 10:00 pm we are in meetings, lessons, after school activities or on the road somewhere in between. Thursdays are okay, but we do not get home until 8:00…
Rachael Ray Inspired Moussaka Sloppy Joes
As I was driving around town today I noticed all the signs for $5 lunches. I thought, “Hmmm, that’s not bad.” But, then the other side of me kicked in. That is lunch for one person. Could someone take that money and make dinner for their family with it? Of course. I started to think…
4 Cheese Tortellini Pizza
I was thinking about creating a Thanksgiving Pizza for dinner but my ever fiscally responsible son reminded me we would need to buy turkey, ingredients for stuffing, mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce. He was right. We should use what we have on hand first. So, we went searching through the freezers to see what we…
Tostachos (Tostados Nachos)
I am all for using up every little piece of food in my refrigerator and freezer before it goes bad. Every time I grocery shop I notice how all the prices across the store are rising so nothing irritates me more than when I have to throw away a vegetable or leftovers that got pushed…
1900 Park Fare – Breakfast Buffet
This is a picture of three generations – my father, my brother and my son. All have the same name. So this was a really special picture for us. We love Walt Disney World dining because we can always find someplace where we are all happy to eat. All three families were traveling together and…
Buffalo Style Mozzarella Pork Chops
Originally posted on What's for Dinner Moms?:
I finally forced my daughter to take a few nights off from dance class. We have been making the hour trip for the past 5 nights and I needed a couple nights off. She also needed to get some homework done as we are now 9 school…
The Best Oven Baked French Fries with Balsamic French Fry Dip
With time tight I decided to try these Al Fresco Grillers that I bought a few weeks ago. I thought with all the busy nights we would be having with dance classes and after school activities that these would be something to try for a quick, easy dinner that I didn’t have to think about….
Simple Slow Cooker Italian Vegetable Soup
Even though my son has decided he will eat meat on occasionally. I am still trying to keep us all eating vegetarian about 90% of the time. I am still buying fish, shrimp and tofu and not buying chicken, pork or beef. If we have any of those it either has to come from the…
Blackened Tilapia and Roasted Vegetable Taco Bowls
We were supposed to go away to a Feis this past weekend but due to car issues and my daughter coming down with a cold we missed for the first time, in five years, a dance competition that we had signed up for. I think that is pretty good considering we attend 10-14 Feis each…
