So after a long day of dancing, going to the cider mill and running errands we got home about 8:30 pm. I had nothing prepared for dinner and not even a thought in my head about what to make. I knew we had some gluten-free Tyson Chicken nuggets in the freezer that I could quickly…

Beef Stroganoff – Hamburger Helper Style
A few weeks ago they had beef bottom roasts on sale at the grocery store. I bought three and was going to cut one up for stir fry or stews. When I started cutting though it I saw that this was going to be futile. I had a couple handfuls of bits and pieces when…
Meatball Sub Casserole with Garlic Bread
Things lately have been crazy in our house and I LOVE when I can find meals that look great and seem fairly easy to make. When I saw this recipe on Pinterest it looked delicious and seemed far to easy. Meatballs, sauce, cheese and bread. Okay but will they eat it? I made a few…
Chocolate “Bakery” Like Cake?
I LOVE to cook. I like mixing things together and making them taste amazing. Trying different combinations until it is just what I know my family will like. I don’t bake often. It is not something I enjoy. You have to be so exact in your measurements and there is not quite so much room…
Moo Shu Pork
My family LOVES Chinese food. If they are going to ask to go out to dinner 90% of the time they will ask to go out for Chinese food. I have decided to try to begin making more of it at home. It is cheaper, healthier and did I say cheaper? After searching through hundreds…
Crunchy Baked Tilapia
When I make fish for dinner it is usually Tilapia because it tends to be a milder fish and it is often on sale at our local grocery store. I can usually get a pound for less than $3.00. I usually have 2-3 lbs. in my freezer at any given time. It is my goal…
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…
Slow Cooker Hot Sandwich
When I saw this recipe on Pinterest for Crockpot Grinders from BigRedKitchen.com I was just waiting for a day that I could try it. It looked simple enough and my family loves a good sandwich. The best part was that it could be modified so that each person got exactly what they wanted in their…
Slow Cooker Pork Roast
Pork has been incredibly cheap at the grocery stores lately so my family has been eating plenty of boneless pork chops, pork roasts, pork loins…. You name it we have eaten it. I am trying a different recipe each and every time we cook it. I had this huge roast in my freezer and wanted…
Spaghetti Pie
My family loves Spaghetti Pie but this is not the normal recipe we use. Being on a strict budget after vacation at the beginning of the month I did not have any ricotta cheese in the house and trying to finish out my “No Buy July” (except for fresh fruits and vegetables) I had to…
Italian Sausage Skillet Dinner
This is another one of those recipes that I started with what I could find on-line and then ventured off into unknown territory as I was missing some of the ingredients in the original recipe from Pillsbury.com for Skillet Lasagna. This was again a dinner for my family to eat on-the-go. It traveled well although…
Cheesy Hamburger Casserole
So this was definitely a I am really not too sure what I am making but our refrigerator contents are getting low and all I have is ground beef, meal. My children do not like plain old hamburgers or cheeseburgers and I was running out of time to get dinner on the table. Then the…
