Mini Cheeseburgers (aka Sliders)

A friend had made these recently for a party and she said they were a huge success, so I thought they would be great for Ian’s 2nd birthday party. They’ll be the perfect size for his little hands and the adults can enjoy them as well.  However, since I haven’t made them before, I tried […]

30 Minute Chicken & Vegetable Dinner

Since I’ve gotten my new Deep Covered Baker, I’ve been wanting to try some recipes and tonight was the 30 Minute Chicken.  Supposedly, I can cook a whole chicken in the microwave in 30 minutes.  This is my first time cooking a full chicken, so we’ll see how this works.  If this works, I’m going […]

Country-Fried “Steaks” with Chipotle Gravy

I’ve been looking for something more to do with hamburger and I think I’ve found it.  Supposedly, this recipe only takes about 28 minutes (it’s from the Pampered Chef 29 Minutes to Dinner Vol. 2), but it did take me a little longer to do.  Granted, a lot of that had to do with me […]

Hearty Lasagna

This is a great simple recipe for lasagna. It is quick and delicious. By using the sausage instead of the traditional hamburger certainly added great spice to it! A few changes I made was that I added a little bit more of the 5-cheese blend in each layer. Also, I used whole milk ricotta cheese […]

Red-Wine Flank Steak

This is *very* good. The hubby and I love this recipe, however, we generally only make it for special occasions due to the price of flank steak. However, the red-wine sauce gives the steak a simply delicious flavor. Ingredients 1 Beef Flank Steak (about 1 pound) 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper 2 teaspoons olive […]

Crispy Chicken with Sweet & Spicy Dipping Sauce

The dipping sauce for this, we use Thai Sweet Chili Sauce. I am not a fan of hot sauces, however, this is not too hot, but just right. Plus it helps that it is a dipping sauce so you can adjust your intake if need by. Ingredients 1 pound think sliced boneless, skinless chicken breasts […]

Pot Roast with Twisted Potatoes

Pot roast is such an easy meal to make since it requires little effort to get it going and it cooks all day. The only problem we run into is what to do with all the veggies that are placed in the slow cooker to help flavor the beef. Usually, I serve them as a […]
