My dog turned 1 years old this week!  So I had a party.  We had burgers, hot dogs, pasta salad, and potato salad.  Smores in the firepit My burger was topped with American cheese, bacon, lettuce, mushrooms, bbq sauce, and mayo. Hot dog was topped with spicy brown mustard and diced white onion. Pasta salad was pasta, cherry tomato, broccoli, red pepper, red onion, cucumber, parmesan cheese, and dressing. Potato salad was red potatoes, mayo, sour cream, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, pickle juice, lemon juice, celery, diced pickles, fresh dill, garlic powder, salt, pepper, topped with paprika.

Jerk Chicken and pigeon pea rice

I tried to make this a sheet pan dinner.  I made the rice per instructions, rubbed my chicken in jerk sauce, and added frozen plantains.  My chicken wasn't as flavorful as I thought it would be.  I would add more jerk next time.

Pioneer Women's 7 can soup

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

Garlic Parmesan Chicken

  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
