Weekend lunch 1970-01-01 00:59:59 For lunch I made hot dog crescents and ambrosia fruit salad. Just cut the hot dogs in half,make a slit and fill with cheese (I use medium cheddar),wrap in a crescent roll and bake on a cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.The kids love these.The salad is a can of drained mandarin oranges, 1 cup grapes,1/2 cup maraschino cherries ,1 Braeburn apple peeled and diced,3/4 cup mini marshmallows and 1/2 cup shredded coconut.Mixed gently in a bowl.

Baked Oatmeal 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I must admit that I never tasted oatmeal until about 8 years ago when my husband made a bowl for me. Growing up I ate grits slathered in butter,salt ,pepper and bacon. But oatmeal has become a weekend morning breakfast that we all enjoy.I make baked oatmeal and usually serve it with a simple fruit salad of banans,apples and strawberries. Sometimes I will serve turkey bacon as well. My husband and I love this stuff,especially on cold mornings like the one we are having today.This recipe came from an old PA Dutch cookbook .BakedOatmeal
1/3 cup butter2 large eggs3/4 cup brown sugar1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla1 teaspoon nutmeg or cinnamon1/4 teaspoon salt1 cup milk2 tablespoons milk3 cups oatmeal (regular or quick)Melt butter.Grease 1 1/2 quart baking dish and drop in eggs and beat well.Add brown sugar, baking powder, vanilla, nutmeg or cinnamon, and salt. Mix well, no lumps.Whisk in butter and both measures of milk, then add oats.Stir well, and refrigerate overnigh
Spaghetti Sauce 1970-01-01 00:59:59 This is my absolute favorite meal. My nana's spaghetti sauce. I make a big pot of this stuff about once a month and everyone loves it. It reminds me of home and big dinners with my family.All of my aunts and cousins make this recipe too. I serve it with simple garlic bread.The kids eat it willingly,even the picky ones,which is a miracle in itself! The key is to make it earlier afternoon and let it simmer on the stove for a few hours. I have altered her original recipe to included the minced fresh garlic, but otherwise I never alter this recipe!Nana's Spaghetti

Chocolate Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Frosting 1970-01-01 00:59:59 These little yummies are addicting! I wanted sweet cupcakes today and was searching through my cupboards and remembered I had a huge container of peanut butter. So I made a batch of peanut butter frosting and my old fashioned chocolate cupcakes.They turned out really good.The peanut butter frosting has just the right amount of sweetness. If you are a peanut butter fan you will love this icing.I found the frosting recipe on the Food Network website .Tyler Florence.Yummy! (the cupcakes and Tyler Florence! LOL)PeanutButterFrosting

Venison Stew 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Another cold snowy day.The boys spent most of the afternoon playing in the snow so I made a venison stew to filltheir bellies.This is a great stew andyou can substitute beef in place of the venison. I serve it over rice or egg noodles.Tonight was the latter.Very filling.Great winter comfort food.INGREDIENTS:2 tablespoons vegetable oil2 pounds venison stew meat3 onions, chopped2 cloves garlic, minced1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce1 bay leaf1/2 teaspoon dried thyme1 tablespoon salt3 cups water7 small potatoes, peeled and quartered1 pound carrots, sliced1/4 cup all-purpose flour1/4 cup waterDIRECTIONS:In a large soup pot, deeply brown the meat in oil.

Snickerdoodles 1970-01-01 00:59:59 My fellow blogging supermom Kristen over at Dine and Dish http://www.dineanddish.squarespace.com made snickerdoodles recently and I decided to use her recipe to make up a batch for us this morning.It is cold and snowy here so me and my three year old made these to keep busy.Kudos to Kristen for a yummy snickerdoodle.When my 3rd grader comnes home from school to find these he will be very happy!

Meme about me 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Seems I have been tagged by Stefanie of Cumin and Coriander http://www.cumicori.blogspot.com so here it is. I warn you I am a stange human being........Five things most people don't know about me:1.I can't sleep in a bed that has not been made that day. Something about is freaks me out.I will sleep on the couch if the bed happens to not be properly made .2.I drink sweet iced tea every day.It has to be made by me in a special pot exclusively for tea and it has to be Tetley Tea. No other tea tastes right to me.3.I hate Coca Cola.It burns my mouth and makes my eyes water.But I love Pepsi. flat Pepsi with lots of crushed ice.4. I check my mini van many times a day to make sure the doors haven't been opened by small toddler hands that have found my key ring.I am paranoid the doors will stay open all day and night and stray animals and bugs will crawl in and make themselves at home and will introduce themselves to me when I am driving.5. I hate socks and shoes.I am barefoot by choic
Cornmeal Crusted Tilapia with Salsa 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Tilapia has become a staple dish in our house.It is a mild white fish that my husband and I as well as the children love. I usually bake it with fresh herbs and lemon but tonight I pan fried them. The cornmeal paprika mix was really good. The salsa made the dish in my opinion.And while the black beans and rice were cooking I fried them in olive oil.I added a side of corn and dinner was on the table in about half an hour with minimal effort.This recipe will definitely be one that we use again.Cornmeal-Crusted

Monkey Bread 1970-01-01 00:59:59 This is a repost recipe from last year,but I have new readers and the picture I took this morning begged to be posted.Huge kid pleaser,but I do not make it as often as my boys would like because of the nutritional content.But this morning I wanted to make this for the boys and I am glad I did.I usually do not add the pecans unless we are having guests or I make it for a friend or neighbor.Cutting the biscuits can be a bit time consuming first thing in the morning but preparing it the night before and popping it in the fridge works too! Monkey Bread

Nutella Hot Chocolate 1970-01-01 00:59:59 This morning we woke up to another frigid day. Wind chill was well below zero. I made a pot of coffee as usual but decided on a treat for myself...Nutella
Hot chocolate.For those of you Nutella virgins out there you must try it.It is a hazlenut spread that is awesome on most anything. I was iontroduced to it in high school by a friend who's family traveled extensively and they always had the best food and drink at their house.I made excuses to go over there just for this hot chocolate and Orangina (a whole different blog on this stuff coming soon) . This hot chocolate is super creamy and is so easy to make. It has made me smile many mornings. Try it,you will like it too. NUTELLA HOT CHOCOLATE3 tablespoons nutella1 1/3 cups milkPut Nutella and 1/3 cup milk in small saucepan over medium heat.Whisk until blended.Add remaining milk, increase heat to medium-high, and whisk until hot and frothy.

Bourbon Chicken 1970-01-01 00:59:59 This is hands down one of the best kid friendly recipes that I have that kids and adults alike rave over.And it is fairly easy to make on a weeknight. Just serve over rice or egg noodles and you havea great tasting, filling meal. There is never any left over.You could substitute applesauce for the aplle juice, as I did last night because I was out of juice and it worked out fine.I always use low sodium soy sauce and add a sprinle or two of arrowroot to the sauce to thicken it up nicely.You can control the heat with more or less red pepper flake,depending on your preference. This recipe was sent to me from the web by a friend a few years back,so I do not know the origin,but I am glad she sent it!BourbonChicken
2 lbs boneless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite size pieces (I use thighs)2 tablespoon olive oil1 garlic clove, minced1/4 teaspoon ginger3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (or more to up the heat)1/4 cup apple juice1/3 cup light brown sugar2 tablespoons ketchup1 tables
Herbed Tilapia 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Easy to do.Everyone loves it.Tilapia
is mild enough to make the kids happy.They eat it without complaint! You can add and delete herbs and spices to your liking.I served this with rice and green bean casserole. 1 cup dry breadcrumbs1/4 cup parmesan cheese1/2 teaspoon sage3/4 teaspoon oregano3/4 teaspoon basil1 teaspoon onion salt1 teaspoon garlic powder1/2 teaspoon black pepper6 tablespoons melted margarine1 package fish fillets, thawed1/2 cup milk1/2 cup butter, melted Mix all dry ingredientsin a shallow bowl.Dip each piece of fish in the milk and dredge in the crumb mixture.Place fish in lightly sprayed casserole pan.Drizzle with melted butter and Bake at 475 degrees 7-10 minutes or until fish flakes.
Red Velvet Cupcakes 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Happy Valentines Day! I made red velvet cupcakes for the boys last night using Kristen's recipe www.dineanddish.squarespace.com. She found it at www.recipezaar.com . These cupcakes were easy to make and came out moist. The cream cheese icing is such a complement to the cake. I will definitely be making these again.Red Velvet

BEEF PORCUPINE BALLS 1970-01-01 00:59:59 These little meatballs are really good.I remember going to my aunt's house and her making them when I was a little girl. And they are super easy to make and fast to get on the table.The Rice A Roni is the best part.Gives a nice salty flavor. And super kid friendly. I always serve with mashed plain old fashioned mashed potatoes.Just butter ,salt and pepper to pour the gravy over.The meatballs will cook and soften and some of the rice will fall into the sauce. I lat them simmer for about 35-40 minutes on low with a lid to make sure that the rice gets soft, so if the broth reduces just add more water and stir.These are a great variation on the traditional white rice and tomato version. Beef Porcupine Balls1 pkg. beef Rice-a-roni1 lb. ground beef1 egg, beaten2 1/2 c. hot waterMix together ground beef, Rice-a-roni and egg. Shape into small balls. Brown on all sides in skillet. Combine contents of beef seasoning packet with hot water. Pour over meat. Cover and simmer 30 minutes. Thicken gra
Banana Oatmeal Cookies 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I had very ripe bananas that I wanted to use up so I made banana oatmeal cookies. I usually make banana muffins or bread but wanted something different.These cookies are so good.They are cakey,so they remind me very much of banana bread. I omitted the nuts because I couldn't find any walnuts or pecans in the cupboard ( even though I know I have a bag of both!) but they weren't missed .And the kids would prefer them without anyway.I cooked these at 375 instead of 400 because my oven gets hot,and they cooked for about 11 minutes and came out perfect.It made 36 cookies .INGREDIENTS:1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour1 cup white sugar1/2 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon salt1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon3/4 cup shortening1 egg, beaten1 cup mashed ripe bananas1 3/4 cups rolled oats1/2 cup chopped walnutsDIRECTIONS:Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Coconut Cupcakes with Almond Cream Cheese Frosting 1970-01-01 00:59:59 It is yet again cold,windy and snowing here in Pennsylvania and I wanted to make a batch of cupcakes.I googled coconut cupcakes and I found this one.

Cordon Bleu Casserole 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Ok, this recipe is a keeper.I diced the cheese,ham and chicken when the baby was down for his nap and it took me about 15 minutes to bread and cook the chicken and put it all together.It baked for half an hour and dinner was on the table. All plates were cleaned. I figured all the boys like cheese,ham,chicken and Ritz crackers so it was bound to be liked by all.It was. I served it over rice,which was a good idea because the sauce was very good over it.I rate this recipe as one that I will make again.It was very easy with minimal preparation and the taste was good.And I didn'thave to pound,roll and bread chicken breasts for the very time consuming chicken cordon bleu.CHICKEN CORDON BLEU CASSEROLE2 lbs skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size chunks1/2 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed1/2 cup milk1 egg, mixed with the milk8 ounces swiss cheese, cubed8 ounces ham diced1 can cream of chicken soup1 cup milkDip chicken in egg and milk mixture, then toss with cracker crumbs, coating well.Bro Read more:Casserole
Spinach Salad with Raspberries 1970-01-01 00:59:59 yum.I could eat this salad everyday.Well, every other day.Odd days I would add fresh strawberries instead of raspberries.The dressing is light and goes very well with the spinach.The boys ate all of their raspberries.The spinach...... not so much!1 pint fresh raspberries20 0z washed and trimmed baby spinach leavesRaspberry Vinaigrette1/2 cup raspberry vinegar1/4 cup chopped fresh shallots2 crushed garlic cloves1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard2 tablespoons minced fresh tarragonSaltFreshly ground black pepper3/4 cup olive oilIn a bowl whisk together the vinegar, shallots, garlic, mustard, tarragon, and salt and pepper to taste.

Homemade Croutons 1970-01-01 00:59:59 After making my own croutons I will never buy store bought again.I use them in soups,salads and as snacks for the kids.They are very versatile.The herbs and spices that you could use are endless. I usually use just garlic but have added cilantro for taco salads and italian seasoning for minestrone and wedding soup. And it is a great way to use up bread. 3-4 pieces day old italian or french bread,cubed3-6 tablespoons olive oil o1/2 tablespoon garlic powderCut bread into cubes.Place pieces in a bowl and drizzle oil over as you stir to coat.Sprinkle with garlic powder.Bake at 350°F for about 15 minutes, stirring once.

A Menu this week 1970-01-01 00:59:59 After reading Kristen's blog ( www.dineanddish.squarespace.com ) I decided to once again try a weekly menu and stick to it. Problem is as the week winds down I get tired and burned out and prepare what is easy and readily available in the fridge and pantry. But when I do have a menu I tend to spend way less money at the grocery store and preparing the meals is a little less stressful because I know what I am making.So here is the list.Pictures and recipes to follow this week.Monday : Penne with Vodka Cream Sauce , Spinach and Raspberry saladTuesday : Chicken Cordon Bleu Casseole, saladWednesday : Herbed tilapia,baked rice, lemon broccoliThursday : Porcupine Meatballs,garlic mashed potatoes, steamed green beansFriday: Greek Turkey Burgers,baked fries,tomato and feta saladSaturday: Grilled steak, baked sweet potatoes, caesar salad,tomato and carmelized onion foccaccia breadSunday:Lime Chicken Tacos, mexican rice,refried beansDesserts this week: Snickerdoodles,
Penne with Vodka Cream Sauce 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I love this sauce.I had it a few years ago for the first time and loved it. I made it tonight and it was very good.And fairly easy to prepare. I was rushed with 3 kids ,baths and a Boy Scout Meeting and I made it without any problems. And.....the kids ate it.No wimpers or rolling of the eyes.In fact when the sauce was simmering my 9 year old walked into the kitchen and asked if we were having Spaghettios!!!!!! for dinner. I don't think it smelled like spaghettios but he ate it,which is another yay for me.I served a spinach and raspberry salad with this. Let's just say that I had much spinach left over.But not one raspberry! Great weeknight meal.PENNE WITH VODKA CREAM SAUCE1 tb butter1 tb olive oil1 onion, chopped28 oz can Italian plum tomatoes1 c heavy cream1/4 c vodka1/4 ts dried crushed red pepper1 lb penne pasta1/4 c ParmesanDrain, seed and chop the tomatoes.

Banana Bread 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Always eaten in this house. I like to bake it in a bundt pan.Easier for me to handle and pretty to boot. I don't add nuts because generally the boys would prefer the bread without.

Country Style Steak 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I know to some of you healthier eaters this looks really gross. But it is comfort food to us.My grandmother and mother made this often when I was growing up. And every man that I know loves it. I will try to come up with a recipe and post it asap.I make it from memory,so I want to make sure I have the right measurements. I made celery and onion mashed potatoes and garlic green beans, which is what I always make to go with the steak. I only make this about twice a year because of the nutrition factor,but is has been so cold and snowy here lately that I crave comfort ............. ok-here is the recipe.

Vanilla Cupcakes with Cinnamon Buttercream Frosting 1970-01-01 00:59:59 My oldest son loves anything with cinnamon so I decided to make him these cupcakes as a snack when he got home from school. They turned out really well. Not an overly sweet frosting and it goes great with a big glass of milk. I added an extra 1/8 tsp of cinnamon and it still came out well. I just added the cinnamon to my buttercream frosting recipe.CinnamonButtercreamFrosting

Waffles 1970-01-01 00:59:59 My fellow food blogger Katie over at http://www.littlespatula.blogspot.com posted an overnight waffle recipe a few weeks back that I got around to trying this morning. I have a waffle maker and the kids love waffles, so last night before bed I prepared the batter and popped it in the fridge. Easy .Got up this morning,stirred the batter and oila.....it made 4 large waffles.Katie, my children thank you. This picture shows the last waffle that is underdone on the edges.I have a baby that still needs soft food so he got the soft outside and my 3 year old got the crispier inner piece.I will definitely be making these again.The taste was great and the recipe couldn't have been easier.

Cinnamon Oranges 1970-01-01 00:59:59 This is a very simple after dinner snack that I make often for the boys.I add apples and bananas as well if I have them,but the oranges are great by themselves.And so easy to do.The cinnamon and oranges pair nicely together.I try to dust the cinnamon on as lightly as I can,but my son prefersmore of a cinnamon taste.Adjust the cinnamon to taste.A different take on oranges that works!CinnamonOranges
2 oranges, the sweetest you can find1 tablespoon cinnamonPeel oranges, then slice crossways into rounds and arrange on a pretty plate.Lightly dust with cinnamon and serve immediately.
