    I’ve been making a lot of things from scratch lately, and learning to use what’s on hand. This is a great recipe for a cheap and easy Chili.
     
    Simple Crock Pot Chili
    Ingredients:
    1 can red beans
    1 can kidney beans
    1 can tomato sauce
    1 can (use the tomato sauce can) water
    1 4.5oz can green chilies
    salt and pepper to taste
    Dash of chili powder
    Sour cream  (optional)
    shredded cheese  (optional)
     
    Directions:
    Add all the ingredients, minus the sour cream and cheese into a crockpot. Cook on high for 4 hours. Serve with sour cream and shredded cheese.
     
    I also made some honey cornbread from Money Saving Mom.
     
    Now on to the fun part! Features from last weeks linky. I always love going through all your recipes and featuring a couple each week. Sometimes I even find the time to try some!
     
    From akawest, Corn Flake Cookies
    We actually tested these out with the box of Corn Flakes no one wanted to eat. We made a slight adjustment and used powdered butter. The kids and I still liked them, but Mark was less then impressed. I’m sure if we used actual butter he would have enjoyed them as well.
     
     
    My Carolina Kitchen made these beautiful Pheasant Eggs on Sausage Toast
    I really really want to try some pheasant eggs now! They look like the perfect little egg.
     
    From A Flock in the City, Home Made Pita Bread
    This is like a little sneak peek, because next week I’m going to share a recipe for home made tortillas! Now I’ll have to add home made pita’s to my repertoire! I do love pita bread.

  • Easy Meals with Progresso Recipe Starters

     
    Some nights I just want something easy. Something I don’t have to spend hours in the kitchen cooking. I do love spending time in the kitchen, don’t get me wrong, but some nights I’d like to just sit back and relax.  While we’ve been trying to unpack and clean this house at the same time, I’ve had many nights where I really just don’t want to cook, or do dishes for that matter.
     
    So I started using Progresso’s new Recipe Starters Cooking Sauce. I love these, and so far the family has loved them too!!  Each can also has a recipe on the label to get you started. Last week alone, we tried 3 of these cooking sauces. The fist we tried was the Creamy Parmesan Basil. WOW! We used it to make some Crispy Garlic-Pamesan Chicken. 
     
    That was some serious melt in your mouth chicken!  The secret for this recipe, I think is the chicken I bought. We live in a small farming/coal mining town, and have a very small market to get groceries. The plus is the chicken. I don’t know for sure, but I’m betting the store packaged chicken was from some local farmer. Oh it just cooked up so nicely!  I don’t think I’ll ever buy brand label chicken again while this is so readily available.
    The Progresso Sauce gets mixed into the breaded chicken, but then also acts as a great topping after it’s been cooked. It was wonderful as a gravy replacement for the mashed potatoes I cooked up as well. Add a green veggie, and dinner is served!
     
    Next we tried the Easy Weeknight Beef Stroganoff. Now I’ve been making Stroganoff for quite some time. It’s probably one of the first dinners I learned to cook. Progresso’s recipe is pretty simple, and easily compared to mine. I know Mark enjoyed this one more, because we used Beef strips instead of ground beef. It did make a nice fancy meal. The Creamy Portabella Mushroom cooking sauce took the place of my condensed Cream of Mushroom soup. This was another winner at our house!  Mark didn’t know I used the Progresso Recipe Starter for this, and was raving about how good it was. He was surprised when I told him it was Progresso! Score one for Mom.
     
    Last, I made the Chicken Pot Pie, using the Creamy Roasted Garlic with Chicken Stock.  For this one, I actually made a few of my own substitutions. Instead of buying a premade pie shell, I made my own. Then I just used what frozen, canned, and leftover veggies I had on hand, plus some chopped up onion.
    Chicken Pot Pie is one of my favorite meals! I just love the stuff. It is one of Mark’s least favorite meals. Guess who ate the leftovers? Mark! Thank you Progresso for making my favorite meal a family favorite.
     
     
    You can visit the Progresso Recipe Starters Recipe Website for these and more recipes!

    Wow guys, so sorry I missed last weeks linky! It looks like plenty was shared over on Diane’s blog though, and I’m excited to go through those recipes, and try some out. While I was waiting for the internet to be hooked up here, I found myself cooking up a storm in the kitchen. I’ve got a lot of fun recipes to share over the next few weeks, but I’ll start with my favorite so far!
     
    Rancher Pork Chops
     
    Ingredients:
    4 boneless Pork Chops
    Wildtree Grapeseed Oil
    Wildtree’s Rancher Steak Rub
    Queso Fresco
     
    Directions:
    Place pork in shallow dish and pour Grapeseed Oil over them.  Rub a couple Tbs of the Rancher Steak Rub on both sides of pork. Let marinate for 30 minutes to an hour (the longer it marinates the more flavor you’ll get).
    Heat 2 TBS Grapeseed Oil in a frying pan. Add pork chops and cook until no longer pink. Flip over once to get both sides. After you flip the pork chops, add a slice of queso fresco to each chop. Once the pork is done, serve and enjoy!  We enjoyed mashed potatoes and corn on the side, but a fresh green salad would also go very nicely.
     
     
    Take a look at these inspiring recipes from last week’s linky!
     
    Little Kitchen, Big Bites shared this yummy looking Baked Salmon with Chunky Guacamole and Cilantro Lime Rice
     
    Gluten Free Food made a Snap Pea Soup with Mint and Garam Masala.
    I’ve heard of split pea soup, but never Snap pea soup. This looks like a great twist!
     
    My Carolina Kitchen celebrated her birthday with an Heirloom Tomato Tart, made 2 ways! These look quite delicious!
     
    I’m looking forward to some more tasty treats! So link up and go mix some yummy food up after browsing around everyone’s recipes!

    Foodie Friday – Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles {Guest Recipe}

    Hosted by
    and

    Well, I’m in the process of moving in, and that leaves very little time for cooking or baking of any sorts. It’s all quick and easy meals until I figure out the best place for groceries, and get settled back into a routine with the new house and the kids.
    Unlike last week, I do actually have a recipe to share this week! Jenn from Terri’s Little Haven and Jenn too, has been so kind to share this recipe for Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles.  She’s got some great photos too!  So this fall as we are all out harvesting our crops (you did plant a garden right)…or in my case, the new owners of our house are harvesting mine, why don’t you try pickling and canning your cucumbers!




    Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles
    7 pounds sliced cucumbers
    2 gallons water
    2 cups pickling lime
    9 cups sugar
    2 quarts vinegar
    3 T pickling spice

    Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles Recipe

    Dissolve lime in water and put in cucumbers.
    Let stand in lime 24 hours. Stir occasionally.

    Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles Recipe

    Take cucumbers out and soak in clear water for 4 hours, changing water every hour.

    Bring sugar, vinegar and spices to boil. Take cucumbers out of water and pour vinegar, sugar and spice mixture over cucumbers. Let stand overnight.
    *I did not have any cheesecloth to put the spices in.

    Next morning let cook 1 hour.

    This post was sent to us by Jenn, co-owner of Terri’s Little Haven & jenn too; of course she had no hand in the actual planting of the seeds, harvesting the cucumbers or the slaving over a hot stove to come up with this wonderful recipe, but kudos to her for her emailing skills. For more delicious recipes that have been tried and tested by Terri, from her farm in Georgia, visit both Jenn and Terri at their blog Terri’s Little Haven & jenn too.

    Simple Living With Diane Balch

    It has been one crazy week here! Mark was offered a job last week, 3 hours away. So on Monday he and I went to find a place to live. We found a house, and now we have just over a week to pack up and move!  I’m trying out some simple recipes over the next few weeks that are made with items already in my pantry.  3 years ago we went to Japan to spend Christmas with Mark’s parents. While there we ate a lot of food fried in a tempura batter. Ever since then I periodically like to buy a box of the mix, and fry something up. It’s simple and the kids love it.

    Tempura Chicken
    print recipe
    Ingredients
    Tempura Mix (I used Krusteaz brand)
    4-5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    Vegetable oil
    Wildtree Moroccan Grilling Sauce (optional)
    Directions
    Follow the instructions on the Tempura Mix to make the batter. 
    Cut the chicken into bite size chunks.
    Heat about 2 inches deep of oil in a large pot. Begin dipping the chicken into the tempura batter. Once the oil sizzles when you flick a few drops of water on to it, start adding in the chicken. Only do one layer at a time, or the chicken will stick together. Cook for about 3-4 minutes to make sure the chicken is cooked through.
    These go great with Wildtree’s Moroccan Grilling Sauce as a dip.
    Here are some of my favorite recipes from last weeks link up –
    Javelin Warrior’s Cookin w/ Luv shared a Roquefort Strawberry Souffles
    Souffles Ready to Serve
    I’ve always wanted to try making a souffle but I haven’t yet. This may motivate me!
    Sweet Smart Vegan shared her Mint Chocolate Chip Milkshake
    Mint Chocolate Chip….and it’s healthy too? Yes please!
    Feisty Tapas shared a recipe for Maple Glazed Roast Chicken with Sesame Seeds
    I’m a sucker for anything covered in maple!

    When we bought our current home, we were lucky to find a great realtor! It’s been over a year since we bought this home, and every month we get a newsletter from our agent. They contain fun random facts, information on home upkeep, and usually a recipe. I just got July’s newsletter, and decided I had to make this months recipe. It couldn’t wait!  I didn’t have the same ingredients, so like always I improvised and used what I had on hand.
    Cherry Gelatin Dessert
    Print Recipe
    Crust
    2 cups flour
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    2 sticks butter
    Soften the butter and mix all the ingredients together. Press into a 9×13 pan. Bake at 350 F for 15 minutes, or until just lightly golden brown. Let cool. Crumble the crust. If you wish to make small servings crumble the crust into 8 10 oz bowls. Otherwise just keep it in the 9×13 pan.  Reserve about 1/2 cup for topping
    Filling
    16 oz cream cheese
    2 cups powdered sugar
    1 tsp vanilla (I prefer Rodelle brand)
    1 tub whipped topping
    Soften the Cream Cheese. MIx in the powdered sugar until creamy. Add vanilla and whipped topping and mix well. Pour over crumbled crust. 
    Cherry Topping
    1 cup water
    1 cup sugar (divided)
    12 oz Frozen Sweet Dark Cherries
    3 Tbs cornstarch
    2 Tbs Black Cherry gelatin
    Mix all but 1/2 cup sugar in a medium saucepan.  Bring to a full boil, and let boil 1-2 minutes. Stir continuously or it will scorch the bottom!  Turn off the heat, and add remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Let cool, and it will thicken.  Once cooled, pour on top of the filling.  Top off with more crumbled crust. Refridgerate until ready to serve. Then Enjoy!

    Before I dive in to this weeks recipe, I want to mention a great opportunity all you cooks have to help raise some money for cancer research.  It’s really simple! If you head over to Giveaway Overload, they are looking for Healthy, Whole Foods, and Gluten Free Recipes to add to a cookbook. All they’re asking for are recipes. Once they compile the book they will begin selling it, and donating the proceeds to CureSearch. I hope you can take a moment to go and submit a recipe. Thanks!
    Stroganoff. It’s such a funny word.  While I was cooking some up for our dinner, I started wondering where the name came from. According to Dictionary.com Stroganoff was named by the French after the Russian Diplomat Paul Stroganov.
    Cool! I love history, and finding the origin of things.
    Mom’s Stroganoff
    Print Recipe
    Ingredients
    1 lb ground beef
    1 can cream of mushroom soup
    16 oz Sour Cream
    1/4 cup chopped onions (optional)
    1/4 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
    salt and pepper to taste
    1lb egg noodles (or any noodles you enjoy)
    Directions
    Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and place in a bowl. Set aside.
    Brown the ground beef in a medium pot. Add the onions and mushrooms when the meat is almost no longer pink, and saute it together. Drain the grease, and return pan to the heat. Add soup, sour cream and salt pepper. Cook until bubbling on top. Pour over the noodles and serve.
    I always enjoy a side of green veggies with my stroganoff. Cooked green beans, or peas are really good!

    We had another great week of link ups!  I thought I’d do it a little different this week, and feature the recipes that had the most clicks! Here are the fan favorites from last week’s linky –

    Carole’s Chatter, Steak Diane
    Hezzi-D’s Books and Cooks, Spaghetti with Pecorino Romano Cheese
    (I have to say that garlic bread looks pretty good too!)

  • Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies

    Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies

    Whether it’s the middle of summer, or you just don’t feel like pre-heating your oven, these Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies are a crowd pleaser every single time. This post contains affiliate links and I will be compensated if you click through and make a purchase.
     
    These are Mark’s absolute favorite cookies! He often asks me if we have any oats so he can whip up a batch.  I once bought a 20lb bucket of quick cooking oats so the answer could always be yes. Now, I just add more oats when the bucket starts to get low.
     
    These were very commonplace in my childhood, and now they get to be a part of my kids’ memories too. Granted, with a recent diagnosis of a nut allergy (both tree nuts and peanuts), Lincoln skips enjoying these with us, but to make it up for it I always make sure to have another treat on hand for him. Or sometimes I’ll even make our Peanut Free No-Bakes just for him.
     
    For other tasty variations, try exchanging the Peanut Butter for your favorite sandwich spread. We love them with Nocciolata, Nutella, Almond Butter, and more! There’s really not a wrong way to eat these cookies.

    and
    Awhile ago I went to my friends Wildtree Tasting Party. It was a lot of fun with some good food. We got to try a myriad of different dipping oils, with grape seed oil as the base. There is everything from natural Grapeseed oil to Hickory Smoked Grapeseed Oil.
    What I truly love about Wildtree is their commitment to healthy products.
    “Every Wildtree product is natural: containing no additives, preservatives, high fructose corn syrup, MSG, or food dyes.”
    Wildtree specializes in Grapeseed oil, but they also have many other products. My favorite is their ranch dip mix. Put that aside though, because today I’m bringing you a recent recipe we tried and loved from Wildtree.

    Pineapple Jerk Chicken Satay 
    (I played around with Wildtree’s recipe, and these are the amounts I used)
    INGREDIENTS
    Wooden Skewers
    2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    1/2 cup Wildtree Natural Grapeseed Oil
    2 TBS Jamaican Jerk Seasoning (Wildtree makes some, but I used Pampered Chefs blend)
    1 Bottle Wildtree Sweet and Savory Pineapple sauce, for dipping
    DIRECTIONS
    Soak the skewers in water.  Preheat the oven to 375 F, or you could grill them up on the bbq! In a large bowl mix together the grapeseed oil and jerk seasoning. Cut the Chicken into 1/2 inch strips and toss into the oil mixture. Stir around until the chicken is completely coated in the oil. Thread chicken onto skewers. I fit 3-4 pieces on per skewer, it just depends on how you thread them.  Line up on a greased cookie sheet, and bake for about 30 minutes. 
    Pour Pineapple sauce into single serve bowls for dipping.

    Disney’s Brave Cullen Skink Recipe

    Last Friday Disney’s Brave came out in theaters. We haven’t seen it yet, but I think we may talk Grandma and Granpa into going with us this week. While we wait though, I think I’ll try making some of Great Granny May Scott’s Cullin Skink.
