Italian Meatballs

April 10, 2013 by Admin Leave a Comment

This is a quick meal to prepare that will fill the family up. They load the cheese on and I like to add fresh basil to it but no matter what there are never any left overs with it. Makes the messy production of making the meal worth the empty plates after dinner.

2 tbsp. freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 / 2 tsp. salt

Rice Broccoli Pot Pie

March 20, 2013 by Admin Leave a Comment

I adapted this recipe from my all time favorite dish my Grandmother has always made. Lately with spring rainy weather and some colds in the house I needed , hearty, warm comfort foods. This Rice broccoli casserole usually is topped with crackers, but I topped it off with a pie pastry to make a “pot pie” version and added in chicken pieces. My kids loved it!

Ingredients

2 packages frozen broccoli ( each 10 ounces each)

2 cups shredded cooked chicken

1 stick of butter

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 large onion

1 cup mushrooms

Slow Cooker BBQ Chicken

March 15, 2013 by Admin 7 Comments

For those really busy days or when you just can’t decide on what to make barbecued chicken in the slow cooker should hit the spot! Easy, and little fuss all you have to do is come up with a few side dishes and dinner is complete. I didn’t use a broiler chicken, so it doesn’t matter what kind you have on hand, just adjust your slow cooker to the size. Smaller sizes obviously cook quicker. You can also do this in the oven , again adjust the cooking time it will be anywhere from 40 minutes to an [Read more…]

Stir Fry

February 2, 2013 by Admin 1 Comment

I was in a rush the other day to get dinner done and threw together a last minute stir fry. Didn’t even have the right ingredients, like peppers (how could I not have peppers?) We all have these days, but you don’t have to worry, stir fry is like another one of those dinners you can throw almost anything at and it’ll come out great. Play with flavors and have fun with it! I used this simple quick recipe this past week.

Stir Fry-

1/3 c. chopped onion

1 clove garlic, crushed

1/3 c. soy sauce

2 tbsp. oil

Chicken tenders or beef strips

Vegetables to add (you some, [Read more…]

Barbecue Beef Chili

January 9, 2013 by Admin 2 Comments

I normally make this chili with beef brisket but this time around I only had beef on hand. It comes out great each way but I do prefer the brisket over anything. Great for a busy day you can toss all this into a slow cooker and forget about it till it’s dinner time. Since I’m also a huge football fan, this is a must on Sundays!

Ingredients

6 tablespoon chili powder

4 garlic cloves minced

2 teaspoons celery seed

1 teaspoon ground pepper

Komodo Dragon Cake

January 7, 2013 by Samantha 5 Comments

First- let me say that I am not one of those people that can just “whip something up”, nor am I a fantabulous baker. This took me a LONG time to do, haha. Not perfect, but hey! (it tasted good, so shhhhh on the non-perfection, lol)

Second- I don’t like fondant. It’s gross. I made icing and covered it with green sugar and dyed green coconut, and it turned out pretty well I think, for a non-master-baker like myself.

What I Used

Two nine-inch round cakes. Cakes made from scratch will be denser and stronger than a cake mix- just be forewarned that the time you save using a mix will be spent cursing during the frosting crumb coat.
