We are all about the easy around our house. I knew there were going to be a few nights of quick meals so I bought several pizza crusts to have on hand. I can make pizza crusts but they never seem to turn out like the pizzeria type that I want. I have tried everything…
One Pan Cheesy Rice and Smoked Sausage
As I watch other families post pictures about the first day of school I am so happy we still have 34 days of summer vacation left! I love fall and back to school time but I also love having my kids around all summer. We still have cello camp, dance camp, a Feis in Milwaukee,…
Macaroni and Cheese topped with Slow Cooker Pulled Pork
I have renewed my Disney blogging by committing to myself to blog at least once a week about Walt Disney World. Most of my posts are about food but some will be about rides, family fun, and as always fun with autism. One of my first posts was about the meal my daughter and I…
Slow Cooker Chicken and Biscuits
Yes, another chicken dish. We still have quite a bit to use. Chicken thighs and drumsticks are $.88 a pound this week so we will be having quite a few dishes using those in the coming weeks. Some days just scream comfort food. This was one of those days. The kids and I started the…
Macaroni and Cheese at Min & Bill’s Dockside Diner
So, I have decided to go back to my at least once a week posts on Walt Disney World. Most of my posts are about our food adventures at Disney but I will be posting about our adventures with rides, changes at the parks and as always fun with autism. My daughter and I loved…
Slow Cooker General Tso’s Chicken
If anyone has been paying attention you will see that four of the last six meals I have served to my family have been chicken breasts. Chicken breasts were on sale for $1.87 a pound this month so I bought 25-30 pounds of it for meals. Not a single person has complained about eating too…
Cheesy Pizza Dip with Pepperoni
We were looking for a fun meal. On some nights during the summer we do movie nights, game nights or just let’s play nights where we go to a movie downtown near the fountain. This was one of those nights. We wanted something that was quick but reflective of the type of day we were…
Pesto Pasta with Roasted Red Peppers and Grilled Chicken
This was a meal I made by opening up the cupboards and started pulling jars. We had friends in town that we didn’t know when they were arriving or when they would be able to see us. They were traveling through town with their extended family and we knew we could have to leave at…
Simple Pan Fried Chicken Sandwich
There are days that dinner needs to be simple and on the table quickly. This was one of those nights. We spent the evening at the beach and were sitting down to dinner at 9:00 pm. This meal took 15 minutes to put together. We could have gone to a Drive Through for chicken sandwiches…
Barbecue Bacon Cheeseburger Handpies
I bought a bunch of canned rolls and biscuits on sale a few weeks ago. I knew time would be tight over the next few weeks and the sale was really great so I thought why not try to incorporate them into some meals. It would save some time and sanity to have easy go…
Easy Chicken and Broccoli
Standing in the kitchen at 6:00 pm with a pound and a half of raw chicken is not a fun place to be when your family is hungry. That is where I found myself the other night. I was looking through my menu options, I make a month of menus to cut down on those…
Greek Spiced Grilled Pork Chops
Some days I am lucky I get food on the table for dinner. This was actually a well thought out meal but the lack of ambition was what was killing me. I was exhausted and wanted nothing to do with cooking. The lure of takeout or going to a restaurant were calling my name. But,…
