Recipe adapted from One Good Thing By Jillee
.
I saw this recipe for homemade English Muffin Bread a couple of months ago on Money Saving Mom and wanted to try it. I haven’t made homemade bread in years, since this recipe looked so easy I thought it would be the perfect to try. Especially since my kiddos wanted to help.

It’s a rainy sort of day here in Tennessee, the kind of evening that has just got cheesy potato soup written all over it 
I wanted to repost my favorite cheesy potato soup recipe – but also I’d like add that I made it recently in the my crockpot and it was DELICIOUS! So here’s the original recipe – and the new update for the slowcooker is under that.
This simple but amazing little potato soup recipe made enough to feed my family of 6 two bowls each, with leftovers for lunch tomorrow! My family told me it was the BEST soup I’d ever made – which I will chalk up to the fact that Velveeta was present. (Credit where credit is due) The recipe below is the most basic – but I’ve added some optional extras you can use to make it even BETTER. (Like shredded carrots to give it a little vitamin kick)

Instructions
For the crock-pot version I made – just dump all the solid ingredients, including boullion cubes, into your crockpot. Pour in the water and the cream soups, and set it on High for 4 Hours, or Low for 6-8. SO EASY!!
Things I would change about the crock-pot version:
1) I put my Velveeta in at the beginning, but I almost think it would’ve been wiser to melt it in the microwave and add it at the end (It stuck to the sides of the crockpot a little)
2) I would take out the stupid celery. I hate celery. I don’t know why I added it. I think I was in chicken noodle soup mode when I had that brainstorm. UGH! Anyway – it does make the picture look prettier
For a full honest-to-goodness post on the slow-cooker potato soup recipe – stay tuned because I’m putting it up tomorrow for our first edition of Slow Cooker Sunday!

During our recent 24-day healthy eating challenge,I was surprised to discover that my biggest craving was Cheez-Its. I knew however, with our new determination to eat healthier we were not going back to snacking on processed foods after we completed our 24 days. I was determined to figure out a way to make Homemade Cheez-Its healthier than the original version. I replaced white flour with whole wheat flour and regular cheese with reduced fat cheese. I thought they would be much harder to make, without the seasoning there are only 4 ingredients! Although you can use a mixer, a food processor makes this recipe even more simple, easy peasy. You can vary the final taste by experimenting with different spices. Next time I’m going to see if I can duplicate the taste of the Chili Con Queso Cheez-Its that were discontinued several years ago. I will warn you ahead of time that these are very addicting! Both my husband and my kids loved them. [Read more...]
I loathe deviled eggs. This looks like I’m happy, but I’m pretending.

I was browsing Pinterest last night (as usual) and found this adorable idea for Easter Breakfast!
Easter is coming, and I’m already stressing out about how to get everything cooked and on the table at the same time for the BIG Meal. I know some people have this down to a science, but I’m just not one of them! Crock-Pot Cola Ham my favorite go to recipe for an easy and delicious main dish.
Recently, my family has made a commitment to eat healthier. We’ve been eating lots of fresh fruits and veggies and eating at home much more than usual. Since doing so, the biggest challenge has been finding ways to prepare food ahead of time on days when we are on the go. When I first heard about Tyson Grilled & Ready Chicken Breasts Strips I was excited to try out a new recipe. Especially considering that the chicken contains no preservatives and is carved from a real chicken breast. First, I went to Tyson’s recipe tab for inspiration, after about 10 days straight of regular grilled chicken and lettuce we needed a change. After perusing the recipes I decided to make up a recipe full of fresh veggies that didn’t include lettuce. I had recently seen a recipe on a friends facebook page of broccoli salad that inspired my creation.

My in-laws were in town for a couple of days so we enjoyed a date night out without the kiddos. First, dinner with my hubby then a quick trip to Walmart on the way home to grab the ingredients I needed for the Grilled Chicken Broccoli and Cabbage Salad. While we were there I also picked up bone-in chicken breasts, boneless skinless chicken breasts, squash, and zucchini for a soup recipe I am trying to duplicate after my trip to Dallas last week. I hope it turns out as delicious as this Grilled Chicken Broccoli and Cabbage Salad!

The recipe was so easy to make, especially with a food processor. Washing the vegetables took the most time by far, but I’m kind of picky about clean vegetables. Although you could eat the Grilled Chicken Broccoli and Cabbage Salad right away, it’s much better served after the veggies have had a chance to soak in the salad dressing overnight. It got the stamp of approval from both my hubby and the kiddos! I’ll definitely be making it again.

Since we started our 24-day healthy eating challenge, we’ve eaten a lot of grilled chicken and salad. As I was racking my brain trying to come up with an idea for dinner that didn’t involve chicken, vegetable soup came to mind. It’s one of my all time favorite meals, and it reminds me of my precious daddy. He always called it “Red Soup,” one of his favorite meals to cook when my mom had to work late. Of course he’d cook a steaming pan of delicious cornbread, I always loved crumbling a big piece of moist cornbread right in my vegetable soup. But……cornbread isn’t part of the plan during our 24-day healthy eating challenge. So, I asked our Time 2 $ave Facebook community their secret to homemade vegetable soup. I incorporated several suggestions to make the best Vegetable soup ever!!
Here’s what our Time 2 $ave Facebook community suggested: [Read more...]
