Soup that is easy, fast, and filling. Not only will my kids eat this, but they love it!…
Becky’s Creamy Italian Chicken
My kids absolutely love this. They actually love anything my good friend, Becky makes. This can be served over rice or noodles. I try to use healthy versions of the Italian salad dressing mix and the condensed soup. Both found at our local whole foods store. The substitutions cost more but I have less guilt….
Slow Cooker Lemon Pepper Chicken
All the meat-eaters in my family told me this was amazing! I served this with Au Gratin potatoes and salad. Photo and recipe courtesy of the Recipe Critic…
Viv’s Peanut Chicken (Or Salmon)
This is not a picture of Viv’s recipe but it looks close. Viv (my sister) made this one summer while we were all at Ft. George (family summer home on Pend Oreille lake in Northern Idaho). It looked so good I decided to try making it substituting the chicken for salmon. It was amazing! It is labor intensive, but perfect for a special meal or when you are trying to impress someone….
Chicken Pot Pie
The smell of this cooking reminded me of the days when my mother worked so my sister and I enjoyed “TV Dinners”. Our favorite choice being Swanson’s Hungry Man Chicken Pot Pies. This, I’m told is better than those, but has the same homey aroma. I may not eat meat anymore, but that doesn’t change the fact that some things just smell sooo good!…
Awesome Slow Cooker Pot Roast
“This is a very easy recipe for a delicious pot roast. It makes its own gravy. It’s designed especially for the working person who does not have time to cook all day, but it tastes like you did. You’ll want the cut to be between 5 and 6 pounds.” (I have done half this amount)

BBQ Pork for Sandwiches
My family loves this super easy sandwich. A cheaper cut of meat works just as well….
Make-ahead Marinade for Kebobs
A very simple marinade that can be made the night before a camping trip. Add veggies in one bag for the vegetarians and meat and veggies in another for the carnivores. We all enjoyed the results on our spring break camping trip last year to Southern Utah. The children liked building their own kebobs and cooking them on an open flame gave them a great taste!…
The Only Marinade You’ll Ever Need
From Epicurious.com: “If I could use only one marinade for the rest of my life, it would be this one. Redolent with garlic, piquant with fresh lemon juice, and fragrant with extra virgin olive oil, it instantly transports you to the Mediterranean. I can’t think of a single food that doesn’t taste better bathed in it. You can use it as both a marinade and a basting sauce. If marinating poultry, meat, or seafood, simply set a portion aside for basting.”…
Cafe Rio Sweet Pork
My son craves this! Sweet shredded pork made in the slow cooker, inspired by the popular Cafe Rio restaurant!…
