I wanted to like this recipe, but it isn't good and I'm disappointed the Pioneer Woman would even share this.  I did do the addition of ground beef.  I ate this soup once and it made gallons.  I'll be tossing it :(. It lacks flavor and it's just not good.  My taco soup would have been better and would have used a lot of the same cans.   Ingredients: 1 can black beans, undrained 1 can pinto beans, undrained 1 can chili with no beans 1 can corn, undrained 1 can green chili 1 can diced tomatoes with chili, undrained 8 ounces of cubed velveeta cheese

  This was the easiest meal ever!  Place 1-2 pounds chicken breast in the crockpot, top with a whole jar of Buffalo Wild Wings garlic parmesan sauce, add an 8 ounce block of cream cheese, and sprinkle on half a cup of shredded parmesan.  Cook on high for about 4 hours.  Shred the chicken and add in cooked pasta. I added a touch of lemon juice, sprinkle of red pepper flakes, and dried basil.   We had multicolor pasta shells.  I served with garlic bread, but a salad would have been nice.  I was able to start this after work and eat it in time for dinner.  Highly recommend

This came in a pack of 4 and it made the easiest chicken parmesan this week.  I found it at the Walmart.  I sprayed a baking sheet, placed the chicken on the sheet, and then sprayed the chicken a little bit.  Heated the oven to 425 and cooked the chicken 6 minutes, flipped it over, and cooked another 6 minutes.  We made our usual spaghetti sauce, a mushroom based jarred sauce with sauteed onion, green pepper, garlic, touch of sugar, and italian seasoning.  I turned the oven to broil, topped the chicken with tomato sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, then a circle of provolone, and put it under the broiler until the cheese was melting and started to brown a little.  Serve with some cooked spaghetti noodles topped with your sauce.  I also had steamed broccoli on the side.  No leftovers! Shown is a chicken parm sandwich.  For the leftover chicken parmesan

  Ingredients: 1 package of boursin cheese spread halves cherry tomatoes sliced mushrooms baby spinach trader joes frozen roasted corn cut up andouille sausage refrigerated gnocchi olive oil oregano garlic powder onion powder salt pepper Heat oven to 425 Cover a sheet pan in foil Place veggies and sausage around the pan Drizzle with olive oil Put boursin cheese spread in the center of the pan Sprinkle everything with seasonings Cook for about 25 minutes Add cooked gnocchi and stir everything together.   *Original recipe had the gnocchi uncooked and on the sheet pan with the veggies, but it did not cook through.  I prefer cooking it on it's own and adding it at the end.  

We shopped at Fresh Market yesterday.  It's on the expensive side, but the bakery can't be beat,  Afterwards we went to Applebees for a late lunch.  We did the 2 for $25 option.  They have select appetizers and entrees.  You get 1 appetizer and 2 entrees for $25.  They also have entree options for additional $$s.   We opted for spinach dip which comes with a little salsa and tortilla chips.  It was very bland spinach dip,  Then we got the new burger O-M-cheese Burger.  It comes on a cast iron skillet, cut in half and face down in a pool of cheese.  At least it is supposed to.  We found the cheese on the skillet became overcooked and less like a pool and more like stuck to the skillet.  The burger did taste good, but it was advertised as having a spicy mustard and we couldn't taste it.   Next my boyfriend got the new dirty soda,  He had the berry Mt. Dew with whipped cream and a cherry.  It is a dol...

We had a funeral last weekend and someone brought over Brunswick Stew.  I had never had it before so I tried it and went home to make my own version. Ingredients: Boneless chicken thighs, 1-2 pounds 1 cup frozen corn, I used Trader Joes roasted corn 1 cup frozen lima beans 1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes 1 onion, diced 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 cup bbq sauce, I would use something mild and maybe less next time.  I used Baby Ray 3 cups chicken broth 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 2 tablespoons brown sugar 2 bay leaves 1 teaspoon paprika 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper Salt and pepper Directions:  Place everything in the crockpot, cook on high for 4+ hours, pull chicken thighs out and cut on a cutting board, return to the stew.  Serve with bread and butter.  We had sourdough

  Drizzle sesame oil in a large stockpot. Add ginger paste, scallion whites, grated carrot, diced mushrooms, minced garlic, chopped quarter of cabbage. Add 4 cups chicken broth, lots of soy sauce, sriracha to taste, black pepper, frozen dumplings.   Bring to a boil. Serve with diced scallion greens, extra soy sauce, and sriracha. 

Season and cook chicken tenders in the oven.   Warm spicy butter sauce from Walmart on the stove Microwave 90 second uncle Ben's basmati rice Steam broccoli Add a little butter and seasonings to mini naan and toast in the air fryer. It is so good!  Sometimes we make it with frozen meatballs too.  

 Place a seasoned pork loin in the crockpot.  This one was rotisserie seasoned.  Add 2 cans of saurkraut.  Add a diced apple.  Cook until pork is falling apart.  Mine cooked almost all day.  I did end up making the leftovers into a sort of reuben sandwich.  I used some thousand island and cheese and it was awesome.
