Chex Lemon Buddies


I made them for the Christmas holiday and they were a wonderfully light contrast to the heavy flavors of so much Chocolate. They would also be great for a summer snack.

Chicken Tetrazzini


First off, that picture does it no justice. Second of all, this is a really good dish. I haven't tried it with peas because a certain someone (my mom) doesn't like them. The first time my Boyfriend and I made it together was pretty interesting and fun; it ended up really tasty though.

The next time I make this, I am going to have to get a good picture of it!

Slow-Cooker: Asian Pepper Steak



I have had this a couple of times and I have liked it. I personally did not like the cilantro nor the lime on top, instead I like putting Chow Mein crunchy Noodles. I think it adds a nice texture. I also would prefer if the meat was in smaller bites but that is easy to do after cooking it.
Really good with with little bits of pineapple in it.

Mashed Potato Soup

Original Site
Just the Recipe
This is a pretty awesome idea. I personally use Idahoan mashed potatoes instead of left over potatoes; just make as the directions call for and the follow recipe listed above. While awesome on just its own, it would be even better if used as just a base. As in make this but also boil up some potatoes and and add them as bites to the soup, it would make it even more filling (though it is already). Or if you are using chunky left over mash potatoes,  you would be golden.

These were pretty good! It was nice because I was able to get Mr. to help out too! We tried them with mini pepperoni and olives. Next time, I think I will add more cheese and even though the recipe says not to, I think I want to try adding a tiny bit of sauce inside. It was fun dipping it but at the same time, it made the sauce a bit over powering.

Best part about these is that you could put just about anything in it! You could even do dessert ones; filling it with fruit or pudding, topping it with maybe sugar & cinnamon or drizzled chocolate...
