    French Onion Sliders

    I think summer is a great time to try new recipes. For us there’s less evening activities and that means I can come home and not have to run here and there before settling in to cook dinner. These French Onion Sliders are so amazing. I’ve seen several other bloggers do similar recipes, so it has been on my recipe bucket list. What I love about these sliders is that you can just use good ole hamburger meat. You don’t have to have the more expensive beef cuts which is great for the wallet. The beefy flavored butter topping that…

    Spicy Barbeque Sliders

    This Spicy BBQ recipe is so amazing and easy. I love throwing a pork shoulder in the oven with just a few other ingredients. This time I made the BBQ and made them into Spicy Barbeque Sliders to switch it up a little. My guys love to put down some sliders and how can they help it when they are so good! Give them a try and see if you don’t agree. Servings: 18+ depending on size Prep Time: 5 minutes Cooking Time: 6 hours depending on size Ingredients: 1 large onion 1 7-10 lbs. pork shoulder 1 can (11…

    Chicken Strip Sliders

    This is more of an idea than a recipe; Chicken Strip Sliders. Sandwiches is an easy throw together recipe often needed for a last minute tummy filler. They can be as simple as a grabbing some slider buns, chicken nuggets, or strips and your favorite sauce (honey mustard, BBQ, etc.) This week, I took it up a notch and made homemade rolls with one of my favorite sauces of all time. A copycat recipe from Chick-fil-a, their Honey Roasted BBQ Sauce. I didn’t have time to bread up chicken strips, so I just used some frozen Tyson crispy chicken strips…

    Hamburger Pasta Soup {Crockpot}

    I love when I’m scrounging around in the kitchen for something for dinner and the ingredients just fall into place. That’s what happened the other night when I was looking for something to make in the crockpot for the next day. Lately I’ve been on a quest to buy 1 new ingredient once a month to try in a recipe. I’ve had this Radiatori pasta just hanging out in the pantry for awhile. I decided to give it a try in this Hamburger Pasta Soup. Have you ever heard of it before? Servings: Prep Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 8…

    Frito Pie

    One of my favorite dishes that my Granddad made growing up is Frito Pie. I mean how can you turn down seasoned ground beef, cheese, and Fritos!

Servings: 3-4 people Prep Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 15 minutes Ingredients: 2-3 cups of Fritos 3 cups of Mexican shredded cheese 1 lb. of hamburger meat 1 small chopped onion 1 can of Texas style chili beans 2…

    Bar-B-Que Chicken

    The other night I had planned to make Buffalo Chicken wraps, but then I realized I was out of Buffalo sauce. I had already cooked the chicken and had already shredded it, so I was kind of left to figure out what to do with the shredded chicken. I had a bottle of Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce waving at me from the pantry and then I got super excited. I also had some buns that needed to be eaten. It was a meal of destiny that ended up being a family favorite. Servings: 8 Prep Time: 5 minutes Cooking…

    Pretzel Breaded Chicken Fingers

    A couple weeks ago I posted the Cheez-It Breaded Chicken and it was so good, so now I’m on a quest to try all sorts of different breading. This Pretzel Breaded Chicken is crunchy and flavorful. My family loves pretzels and go through several bags of pretzel every month, so I was pretty sure this recipe would be a family favorite and it was! They were begging me to make it again the next day. Servings: 4 Prep Time: 25 minutes Cooking Time: 20 minutes Ingredients: 2 lbs. of chicken Breading Ingredients 2 cups of pretzels 1 tbs. garlic 1…

    Bacon Pizza {Homemade}

    The other night, I had some cooked bacon that I needed to use before it went bad. I also had some homemade dough in the fridge, so this homemade bacon pizza came to mind. It turned out amazingly! Who doesn’t bacon? Who doesn’t love bacon? I put this pizza down, turned around to get a drink, and there were just 2 pieces left! Next time, I’ll know to make a double batch. Servings: 4 Prep Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 30 minutes Ingredients: Fresh dough or refrigerated dough 1 jar of pizza sauce (I use homemade sauce) 3 cups of…

    Chicken And Cheese Quesadillas

    This Chicken And Cheese Quesadillas recipe is so easy. I’m not sure how many of you have a panini maker. It was one of those interesting gifts I got from the in-laws which turned out to be awesome! However, I got tired of throwing bread and a different variety of meats in there, so I decided to try quesadillas in the panini maker. So much easier! Even if you don’t have a panini maker, still a super easy thing to put together for a tailgate. Servings: 4 Prep Time: 5 minutes Cooking Time: 5 minutes Ingredients: taco seasoning 1 lb.…

    Buffalo Chicken Roll-Ups

    Recently when I made the Bacon Cheeseburger Roll-Ups, I decided it was too good to limit to just that. I was having a craving for buffalo chicken. This buffalo chicken roll-up recipe is so easy, whether you use the refrigerated dough or pre-make the homemade dough in the bread machine. I love that they are good for a lunch or dinner on the go, which with our busy schedules is wonderful! Servings: 6 Prep Time: 25 minutes Cooking Time: 20 minutes
