I had a little piece of ham sitting in the freezer that I needed to get out of my freezer. I searched Pinterest but couldn’t find just what I wanted. I did not want bread or potatoes in the dish. All I wanted was something simple that did not have to set for hours before…

Slow Cooker Chicken Stroganoff
We are still in full comfort food mode so for dinner last night I started with a recipe for Slow Cooker Chicken Stroganoff from Allrecipes.com. I knew I would have to a bit of changing to the recipe for my family. The first change I made was substituting chicken stock for butter. I didn’t want…
One Skillet Tortellini & Sausage in Tomato Cream Sauce
Our family had a Snow Day yesterday. It was wonderful. We all needed that day to kind of put ourselves back together. Things have been so busy that everything was just a bit off and the forced down time let us put everything back in order. Now, if we could only find my son’s winter…
Pizza Pot Pie
This is one of those dinners that start out as one thing and ends up completely different from what you imagined. This month is incredibly busy so I am trying to make having dinner not add to the stress of our lives but rather enhance it. Our dinner time is the time we can sit…
Creamy Mashed Sweet Potatoes and Steak
I am in love with sweet potatoes right now. My kids are okay with them. As long as I keep cooking them I think they will start to get used to the taste. I remember when they were little the doctor telling us to have them try food up to ten different times before thinking…
Sausage Hash Casserole
Two more nights until vacation. Two more meals to try to create from my quickly dwindling pantry and refrigerator supplies. We are surprising our son with the vacation so every time he asks, “Why don’t you just go to the store and get x or y?” I have to tell him that it’s not pay…
No Dough Pizza
We are still in a “No-Buy” January mode that is helping me clean out my basement pantry and freezer. We are in full on saving mode for our Walt Disney World trip. So, I need to find dishes that use things I normally stock in my pantry, freezer and kitchen and are fairly simple and…
Scalloped Potatoes with Ground Beef
Things are getting busier day by day here. Another night, another casserole. I am trying to not spend any more money before Christmas so we are going to be using everything I can out of the pantry and freezer. I went searching for a dish that used ground beef and potatoes that I could make…
Berry Cream Cheese French Toast Casserole
We love breakfast for dinner. I had been planning on making this for a couple of days. I just kept forgetting to put it together first thing in the morning so that it had at least 8 hours to sit before I cooked it. I finally got around to making it and we were all…
Pesto Tortellini Dinner
Dance classes are back in full swing so that means more “Dinners-to-Go.” Above is a picture of one of the divided dishes we use. There is no salad or vegetable in the other side yet like I normally serve. I love these dishes because they can be recycled after a few dozen uses and they…
Apple Pie Praline French Toast Casserole
This was an interesting day. I had been planning on making French Toast for quite a few days now but I just never got around to buying the apple pie filling until today. While I was at the store I saw pecans. I love pecans but rarely buy them because they are so expensive. But,…
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…
