Tangy Slow Cooker Pork Roast: Cook Once, Eat Twice!

I had a beautiful pork roast to cook the other night.  It was a To-Go meal night and I had two meeting to attend before getting everyone in the car to go to dance classes.  I needed something super easy and flavorful.  I found the recipe for a Pork Roast Supper at Muffy Martini.com that…

Spicy One Pot Sausage Soup

I needed a quick dish for dinner last night.  I didn’t even start cooking until 6:00 pm.  I had one pound of Italian sausage thawed in the refrigerator and needed to come up with something easy that would be on the table within half an hour.  Sausage soup! Verdict: This dish had tons of flavor,…

Cheese Tortellini and Ravioli with Garlic Brown Butter

What to make when the groceries are running low and the pantry staples just aren’t speaking to me?  I had half a bag of frozen ravioli and half a bag of frozen tortellini.  Neither was enough to feed my family of four, but together?  I could make this work. We do not eat a lot…

10 Delicious Slow Cooker Recipes for Fall

I love Fall!  The great sleeping weather, the crisp apples and the smell of cinnamon everywhere you turn. This time of year my slow cooker is working overtime. I love coming home to a dinner about 90% complete.  Adding a salad, sides or a bit of spices to the pot make the meals complete. These…

Slow Cooker Sweet and Spicy Pork

Back to the slow cooker!  I love recipes that I can just dump some ingredients in my slow cooker in the morning and at dinner time have dinner 90% done before I even walk in the door. A few people have asked about my slow cooker.  I use a 6 qt.  Set it & Forget…

Cheesy Wild Rice Casserole

This didn’t get posted yesterday because I had food poisoning.  I couldn’t believe it.  I still can’t.  I knew when I looked at the words someone used to search my blog and saw Barbecue Beef Cowboy Casserole and started getting sick again there was no way I was doing anything with food. We went to…

Cheesy Sloppy Joe Eggrolls

Day three without a kitchen sink.  It is now glued back on but it needs to dry for 48 hours and then be sealed.  I am getting really tired of not having a sink and running water in the sink.  I can use my dishwasher but I don’t put pots and pans in it.  So,…

Paula Deen’s Pecan Cinnamon French Toast Casserole

First off notice that this is made in a disposable aluminum pan.  No, I am not taking this to an event but rather using it to feed my family.  Our under the counter mounted sink decided to detach from the counter at 7:00 am the other day.  So, we have no water in the kitchen…

Slow Cooker Cheddar, Ale & Bratwurst Soup

I just read the title of this recipe and knew I had to try it.  Slow cooker, cheese, ale and bratwurst – all the wonderful things of life.  That this dish is made in a slow cooker just makes me so happy! I found the original recipe for Slow Cooker Cheddar Ale and Bratwurst Soup…

Caramelized Onion, Bacon and Cheese Crustless Quiche

I love weekends!  Sleeping in, lazy days spent with the family and late dinners happen most weekends.  I LOVE bacon.  But, I am not a fan of cooking it first thing in the morning.  The smell makes me feel nauseated.  My children will tell you they very rarely get bacon for breakfast.  I don’t mind…
