Bacon Mac & Cheese

I love macaroni and cheese, especially the mass produced version that you often find in buffets. So I’m always on the lookout for a good mac and cheese recipe. A little while ago, I forget where, the idea of Bacon Mac & Cheese started bouncing around in the house and I knew I had to make it. I had originally planned to use a recipe I found over at Babble.com, but their recipe called for Progresso™ Recipe Starters™ Creamy Three Cheese cooking sauce and I have no clue where to find it.

Chicken & Broccoli Ring

I’ve already made awhile ago the Chicken and Broccoli Ring, but this time around I did a few things different, so I wanted to give it a new post. Honestly, I didn’t realize this recipe had already been published until this morning, otherwise I probably would have used it. As it is, the things I did differently aren’t that big, but I definitely think it made a much prettier product (if you want to read about the first attempt, click here).

Bistro Chicken Twist

I recently bought one of the Pampered Chef cookbooks, All the Best, and there were a few recipes in it I wanted to try. Today, Jesse came me a reason to when he asked for something to take into work with him. A couple of months ago, I was browsing through a copy and found this recipe and it looked really interesting. It didn’t seem like it would be that hard and it wasn’t. Continue reading

Chicken & Broccoli Ring

This is another Pampered Chef recipe that I am trying to perfect since I have to demo it this weekend. Normally, I try and stick to stupid easy recipes to do during the cooking show, but since this one was given to me 5 days in advance, I can’t really change something that has been agreed upon. I will be honest (as I always am), I tried a different variation of this awhile ago and I wasn’t a fan of it.

Spicy Beef & Broccoli Stir-Fry

Talk about fabulous! I never knew stir-fry could be this easy. For some reason, I’ve always been hesitant to try and make a stir-fry. I’m not sure why, but the concept was always intimating, but I finally tried it with this recipe from the Pampered Chef and it was amazing. It only took me 30 minutes to make and everyone loved it. Seriously, Jesse and I are already thinking of making it again, but trying different foods to vary it up a little. Continue reading

Lemon Greek Chicken

I received the Help Whip Cancer recipe card collection from PC today and man did I find a bunch of great recipes. I’m trying one tonight for dinner, it’s Lemon Greek Chicken and I had EVERYTHING on hand. Well, besides the veggies, but those are interchangeable in my opinion. I did make a few changes to the recipe. Not really because I felt the need to, but because it was what I had on hand. Continue reading
