So this has been on Pinterest for about a year now. Fill your taco shells with meat and cheese and then put them in a 350 degree oven for about 3 minutes for the cheese to melt and the shells to freshen up. I never bothered doing this as by the time the tacos are…

Tilapia over Wild Rice and Spinach Casserole
This recipe started as a Creamy Chicken, Mushroom and Wild Rice Casserole from Womansday.com. As you can see from the title I did not use chicken because in the process of trying to clean out my freezer and pantry by instituting a personal No Buy Month I had no chicken in the house. I always have…
Kielbasa, Potato and Cheese Casserole
I am trying to use up everything in our freezer, refrigerator and pantry this month so I have instituted a No Buy Month for groceries this month. I am allowed to buy fresh items like milk, eggs, vegetables and fruit but even those I am trying to limit so that I can use all the…
Marinated Steak over Green Salad
So this all started because I saw a recipe on Pinterest for the Best Steak Marinade in Existence. You know I had to try it. “The Best?” Really? So, I made steak one night. Used the recipe from PlainChicken.com for the Best Steak Marinade in Existence. It was REALLY good. My kids ate it up…
Pepperoni Pizza Casserole
I needed a quick dinner so that I could get the family out the door and to the Science Fair for my son and middle school scheduling night for my daughter. So, this was another to-go dinner. As anyone who has read my posts in the past knows, at least two nights a week my…
Chili Rellenos Casserole
I am not a fan of chiles. Ever. I don’t like overly spicy or hot things but when I saw this recipe I knew that my children would love it because they are always asking for authentic ethnic foods. Although I don’t make authentic anything I thought this would make them happy. I found this…
Mexican Stuffed Shells
This recipe started from a Pinterest recipe for Mexican Stuffed Shells from The Girl Who Ate Everything. As you know if you have read any of my other posts or recipes I tweak my cooking to what I have on hand and what I know my family will eat. I loved the idea of this…
Buffalo Chicken Wing Casserole
Still on my Pinterest theme today. This was one of those recipes that I had almost everything I needed but still had to make a bit of substitutions. I NEVER use cream of something soups or premixed dressings if I can help it. I started with this recipe for Buffalo Chicken and Potatoes at Holy…
Chicken Tetrazzini
My mom used to make this all the time when we were children. As an adult I never quite understood how she made it until I ran across this recipe on Pinterest for Martha Stewart’s Chicken Tetrazzini. I tend not to even attempt Martha Stewart recipes because I think they are too fussy and time-consuming…
Feta Cheese and Bacon Stuffed Chicken Breasts
This is another Pinterest recipe. I have been really interested in Pinterest lately. Okay, obsessed with Pinterest lately. But this has all the flavors I knew my family would love. Feta and bacon. My children eat feta cheese right from the container. I can’t keep it out or it will be gone within 5 minutes….
Zucchini/Squash Parmesan Crisps
I am fortunate in that my children really do like most vegetables. But, I am searching for new ways to serve them as we are getting tired of the same boiled or roasted vegetables over and over again. I saw this recipe on Pintrest and had to give it a try. The Zucchini Parmesan Crisps…
Pork Stuffed Eggplant
One of my New Year resolutions is to add more vegetables to my family’s meals. When I saw this recipe for Pork Stuffed Eggplant with a Caribbean influence from La Tartine Gourmand I thought it would be a perfect way to add several vegetables at once. Of course as with all the recipes I make…
