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…
Dorito Tilapia
I needed a dinner within half an hour on the table. Standing in front of the open refrigerator and freezer (I now know where my children get it from) I finally gave in. I tried the Cheeze-It Chicken a week or so ago after seeing it on Pinterest. Now, the snack food fish. My son…
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,…
Overnight Slow Cooker Chicken Stock
This has to be one of the best lessons I have learned using my slow cooker. My family loves chicken soup and whenever I roast a chicken during the winter I always get out my soup pot to boil the carcass and gizzard to make soup. I also buy 2-4 cartons of chicken stock every…
Sausage Alfredo Pizza
The weather the past two weeks in Michigan has been down right Fall like. I have been craving pizza and needed to make something other than plain, old red sauce with sausage. I found this recipe for Deep Dish Alfredo Pizza on Allrecipes.com. I knew I wasn’t going to make a deep dish pizza as…
Easy Beef and Broccoli
My son had a friend over for dinner who, to say the least, is a VERY picky eater. I decided to treat him like one of my own children and just make dinner as usual. He told me he didn’t like steak or broccoli when I served this but, he asked for seconds. This was…
Sweet and Sour Ham
My kids go back to school the day after Labor Day. We are trying to take advantage of every minute we can at the beach and playgrounds. So, that means we often don’t even think about dinner until 8:00 pm or later. I tell my children we eat like Europeans. This was one of those…
Slow Cooker Creamy Tortellini
I LOVE my slow cooker. I use it as much as possible and am always scouring the web for new recipes. This recipe is a mixture of several different recipes. I wanted something creamy but not soup, which was most of the slow cooker recipes using tortellini, and no meat. So, I tried this. It…
Slow Cooker Pineapple Chicken over Wild Rice
I have passed over this recipe for Crockpot Pineapple Chicken on Pinterest at least one hundred times. I kept thinking how can this be good? There is nothing in it. Sure, it looked easy but … would it be tasty? Finally I had to give it a try. I needed a quick easy dinner and…
Cheez-It Chicken Fingers
I think everyone has seen all the variations of this recipe on Pinterest lately. You can have Pretzel Crusted Chicken Fingers, Doritos Crusted Chicken Fingers, Potato Chip Crusted Chicken Fingers and now Cheez-It Crusted Chicken Fingers. Basically any crunchy snack food you can crush you can coat your chicken with. I have always said I…
Pepperoni Pizza Stuffed Chicken
Chicken is the meat of August I guess. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts were $1.69 a pound on sale so of course I had to buy over 12 pounds of them. I never could resist a sale. For some women it is shoes, for me it is meat. So I have cut some up into chunks,…
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…
