Dinner

Hey that sounds like it would be good for my daughter - she is moving into her first apartment. Also another thought would be to check out some slow cooker recipes. I love to come home & there they are - all done. My kids' fav is a roast, throw a can of cream mush suop & package onion soup mix on top. slow cooker low for 8-10 hours & serve with mashed taters yummmmmm - I have a few other if you are interested, including a cranberry porkroast. man now I am hungry!! :lol:

Also if u got to the Campbell's website they have TONS of recipes with all the soups. Most are very easy and very yummy!
Now yall are making me hungry at 7am! ha ha

puddlejmpr - try the Kraft.com website - I've found some great quick meals there - and last week I made some Black Forest Cupcakes that were DIVINE! :D

Oh My Gosh SUE!
I'm gonna be thinking of food all day today! lol
Also, spoke to my daughter last night, she's almost finished her first book and said she LOVED it! She said she has loads of books if you would be interested in them!
Will talk to ya later about this,
Have a fantabulous day,
Ang

Thank you!! I am very interested in quick easy meals. I will check out those websites. Those cupcakes sound so yummy. I LOVE black forest cake :D My very first made from scratch cheesecake was a black forest cheesecake. I took it to a family dinner and everybody didn't believe me when I told them I made it :x

dalfire I would love those!!!

My crock pot is something I use often. I use it alot when I make venison chops, hubby loves it when I make them that way.

I guess we are just getting sick of the usual meals that are being made. I want something different and of course something that doesn't cost a ton to make lol.

Tonight I am making Creamy Pesto Chicken & Bow Ties. From the pic. in the cookbook it looks very yummy. I will let you all know how it turns out. It says pre/cook time is 20 min. How cool is that? :D

I have a Campbell's cookbook too. There is this beef taco bake that is SO good. My mom has a kraft cookbook and the other night I made this Sicilian Supper Casserole out of it that was DELICIOUS! It was really easy to make too. I browned hamburger meat and onion, then added salt, pepper, and tomato paste and simmered. In a seperate pan, heat 1 block of cream cheese and some milk (I don't remember how much) and then add some garlic salt and parmesan cheese and 2 cups noodles. Then I layered all that twice in a casserole dish and baked it for 20 minutes. It was awesome!

I am not really into sweets but I love the easy dinners!!! Ang did you make the pineapple upside down cake?

Sometimes at office parties and picnics I make a taco salad that everyone loves and its very easy to make. Brown one pound of ground beef and drain the fat. Add a packet of taco seasoning, like mccormack or similar, add some kidney beans, onions if you like onions and mix in a bag of shredded cheese then add a bottle of zesty italian salad dressing, it needs to be the zesty, not regular. Mix all that together with your sald and your good to go, it delicious. You can also put the salad off to the side and mix the salad and taco mixture separately as the sald will get soggy if you leave it setting for too long.

ramj, that sounds really good!!! I love taco salad! Over the summer, I had some that was made with a Western dressing also that was really good. I want to make your salad this weekend!! Thanks!

All this food talk is making me hungry- and given me some good ideas!! I do the Taco sald thing too, but sometimes I use Catlina dressing instead, then at the last minute put fritoes in it and toss!!..KAren

ok you guys are making me hungry lol. All of that sounds good.

Sass, the beef taco bake is in my book!!! Looks like that will be one I will have to try. Maybe next week when I go back to work.

I will have to try that taco salad next week also when the temps are going to be in the upper 90's.

Thanks all for your input and ideas!!!!

puddlejumper-am going to have to find that cookbook!! I,also, love crock pot dinners! Tonight we are having BBQ pork loin in the crock pot. I buy the small ones in a package,the mesquite BBQ, and put it in my crock pot with sauce and it just falls apart!!..KAren

puddlejmpr....I think we might have the same cookbook!!! :) I love the idea of the fritos, Karen!

I think we should do a recipe thread!!!

That sounds good Sass-we had a cat thread once-so why not a recipe Thread!!..Karen

Ok I made the pesto chicken...I used garlic chicken and a basil pesto sauce then added some extra garlic (can you tell we like garlic?? lol) It tasted like a spicy garlic chicken I order at a restaurant here. It was soooo yummy and I love pasta so much :) I am very proud of myself on this one and hubby loved it also. My daughter asked me when I could make it again lol. This went very well with a nice tossed salad.
