This is the fastest and easiest dip, but taste like you worked on it for hours. Here’s a tip –  I like to bake mine in two smaller dishes (reduced cooking time a few minutes) I like the dip best when HOT and cheesy right out of the oven.  If I cook it in two pans at different times I can put one out at the start of the party, and pull the second one out once the first one is gone. Enjoy…

We all have nights where we just want something quick and easy for dinner but don’t want to spend a lot of time or money.  This Easy Pizza Pasta Bake is ideal for saving money, satisfying a crowd and throwing together in minutes.  My favorite part about this meal is how flexible it is for individual family taste buds.  We use basic ingredients for our kids that prefer fewer veggies and traditional “pizza” taste of cheese and pepperoni but we also split it and make half with just those ingredients and the other half chock full of bell peppers, onions, mushrooms and even zucchini for the adults who want something more substantial.  Using easy to pick up on sale with coupon items it typically becomes a $5 dinner for us that feeds everyone and has leftovers for the next day! Enjoy….

Ingredients:

  • 1 Pound Pasta (we like the veggie spirals)

Optional (for toppings):

  • Bell Pepper
  • Black Olive

  3. Cook Pasta according to package directions, drain and set aside
  4. If using Italian sausage or ground meat cook, drain and set aside.  Do the same with any vegetables like onions or peppers that need to be cooked to tenderize prior to eating.
  5. In large bowl mix together cooked pasta, pasta sauce turkey pepperoni and half of cheese.
  6. If using other ingredients mix in with pasta until distributed evenly
  7. Pour into casserole and top with remaining cheese
  8. Bake at 350 degrees for 17-20 minutes or until cheese is melted, bubbling and browned slightly on top.
  9. Serve alone or with a side salad.

This Easy Pizza Pasta Bake is a hit with kids because it’s so much like their favorites (spaghetti & pizza) but also a hit with mom and dad since you can easily hide extra veggies in this dish that they won’t even notice. 😉 I’ve even shredded squash, zucchini and carrots and tossed in with the pasta for an extra veggie serving they won’t notice.  Take advantage of those great coupon deals where pasta, sauce and even things like pepperoni and cheese are on sale and stock up your pantry so this can always be a last minute throw together choice for under $5 to feed your entire family in under 30 minutes.

Calling all you steak lovers out there! Here is a fabulous recipe to get some protein in and indulge! These bites are perfect for dinner but are even better for appetizers, parties (hello Super Bowl) or just snacks.  The sauce for these steak bites goes with it perfectly and give them a pop of flavor. Enjoy…

Filet Mignon Bites with Bernaise Sauce

(Print this recipe at the very bottom of this page)

What you need:

  • 1/2 Onion finely diced
  • 6 egg yolks
  • 2 tsp Lemon juice
  • 2 sticks Butter
  • 1 tsp Tarragon
  • 1 tsp Chervil
  • 3 tbsp White Wine
  • 3 lb Beef Tenderloin
  • 1 lb Bacon

What to do:

  1. Finely chop the onion so that it doesn’t overpower the sauce.
  2. Cook the chopped onion for 1 minute in the microwave to soften it.
  3. Place the egg yolks in a saucepan and add the lemon juice and stir until the mixture is blended.
  4. Add the first stick of butter sliced into pats and cook over very low heat stirring constantly until melted in.
  5. Then add the next stick in the same fashion continuing to stir constantly.
  6. This process takes awhile because we want the egg butter mixture to cook together.
  7. If the heat is too high or you don’t stir enough, the eggs will begin to cook on their own and the sauce will “break”. You’ll know if/when this happens because you’ll see lumps or curdles forming in your sauce.
  8. If all goes according to plan, your sauce will begin to thicken and reach the point where it begins to look like a thin pudding. You’ll see the line the spoon left after you drag it across the bottom.
  9. Take the sauce off the heat, add the onions, tarragon and chervil. and mix well.
  10. Add the wine (if you don’t have wine, you can substitute 2 tsp lemon juice and 2 tbsp water) and blend well.
  11. Cut the tenderloin into 1″ cubes.
  12. Take the bacon slices and cut each piece in thirds.
  13. Wrap each filet bite in a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
  14. Heat a heavy skillet on high and sear each bite on all sides.
  15. Transfer seared pieces to broiler pan and place in 350 oven for 15 minutes.
  16. Serve filet bites with bernaise sauce.

Ever wonder how to make homemade onion rings?! These are my favorite kind because I can add whatever spices I’d like to them…you know, you could even add brown sugar to make kind of a sweet and salty flavor.

I definitely recommend using the sweet yellow onions as these have a really good flavor and not too strong to eat by themselves.

You may even be able to get the little ones to try these because they taste to much better than just plain onions (although I love those too! 😉 ).

Lemon Basil Salt

Sprinkle this yummy gourmet salt over a beautiful piece of broiled fish, in your popcorn, or on chicken to add a pop of fresh flavor. Use it in your favorite recipe in place of plain salt-substituting the same amount. Create a couple of flavors and put them in a basket with a couple kitchen utensils for a lovely gift.  In a beautiful glass jar tied off with ribbon or raffia this would make a great gift to take to your hostess at a party.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup salt
  • 2 lemon’s
  • 6-8 Basil leaves
  • glass, airtight storage  container

 Directions:

  1. Zest both lemons. You do not have to have a fancy lemon zester tool- simply use the fine grate on your regular old cheese grater to zest.
  2. Bruise Basil leaves gently by laying them on a hard surface and tapping gently with a spoon to release their aromatic oils.
  3. In a medium sized bowl combine lemon zest and bruised Basil leaves with coarse ground kosher salt until evenly distributed.
  4. Place in an airtight container and store in a cool dark place. Store for up to 6 months.
  5. Allow salt to absorb flavors for 2-3 weeks before use.

What’s better than a nice warm bread bowl filled with comforting cheese soup on a cold winters day (or heck, any day for that matter)?! I love creamy soups and that is exactly what this next recipe is.

Did I mention it has BACON?! 😉

Enjoy…

Ingredients:

  • 1 pkg of bacon
  • 1 bag of fresh broccoli [in microwavable steam bag]
  • 2 cups or chicken stock
  • 1 bag of sharp cheddar cheese [shredded]
  • 1 small white onion
  • 1 spoonful of minced garlic
  • 1 16 fl oz carton of heavy whipping cream

  • 3 TBSP butter
  • pepper, onion powder, garlic salt, nutmeg, basil & red pepper flakes [I just sprinkled a little of each]

Directions:

1. Place bacon on baking sheet and cook in oven at 400 until crispy [make sure you keep a close eye on it-finely chop in food processor
before adding to soup].
2. While bacon is cooking, chop onions and broccoli in food processor [I chopped half the bag of broccoli, and left the other half as whole
pieces-make sure you steam the broccoli first before chopping].
3. Pour your chicken stock into a saucepan on medium heat then add the garlic, onion, and broccoli bits, cover and let cook on medium heat
until tender, then let simmer on low while still covered.
4. While veggies are cooking in stock, melt butter into a large pot, once butter is melted whisk in your flour until it forms a paste
5. Next you want to slowly whisk in the broth from the saucepan, then slowly add in the veggies
6. Once everything is combined, add your whipping cream, cheese, bacon & seasoning until everything melts together!

NOTE: I used a sourdough bread bowl for this recipe.

Everyone has those favorite restaurants they love in places they used to live. One of mine is a barbecue restaurant that I now live about 1,200 miles away from. My favorite thing to order there wasn’t the ribs or a sandwich, it was an appetizer: nachos with pulled pork on them.

I don’t know if I will ever get to enjoy those nachos again, but I have come up with what I believe to be a pretty good substitute. It’s a great way to turn some barbecue leftovers into a meal for the whole family, or pick up some pork at your famous barbecue restaurant, bring it home and make these. Trust me, they are great eating! They’re a fun meal for a movie or football night.

This is more of a method than a recipe in some ways. You can certainly tailor the amount to the number you need to feed, and top with what your family likes.

The chips are toped with a spice mix similar to a barbecue dry rub to give the dish a barbecue flavor. I top mine with hot pickled okra in place of the jalapenos on traditional nachos. You can find them in a jar near the pickles at your supermarket.
