Make it Your Way Overnight Casserole

Do you love the convenience of mixing everything together and having it ready to cook later?  If you do, this Overnight Casserole is just that.  You can easily make it your own by switching the soup, meat and vegetables.  Use all veggies if you know someone that is on a no meat tangent, like one of my twins.  Toss in some fresh herbs to make it pop with flavor.  Your meal...make it the way you and your family like it.

Microwave Chili Beans Succotash

My middle son, my oldest twin and self proclaimed vegetarian (although will eat chicken strips and an occasion cheese burger) loves spicy food.  Anything with beans, chilies and a bite is just fine with him.  He even eats onions like potato chips, honest!  This recipe was thrown together for him..a little on the mild side tonight after eating raw onions by the handful!  He must have approved as he gobbled up two bowls.  Made in the microwave, this was a one dish supper.  You can easily cook this on the stove, in the oven or a big pot in the crock pot.  My advice...at least double the recipe.  You will be glad you did.

Ravioli Lasagna

You are going to thank me!  I just know it!  However, I cannot take credit for the idea.  I just picked up on it after seeing it floating around the internet, various places.  No one place in particular.  I think this recipe is great and will be making it often.  Me thinks...you will, too!  ~wink~

I didn't use all the ravioli but rather saved some to toast in the oven.  I'll share that soon.  ~smile~

Chicken Stuffing Casserole

Nice for lunch or supper with a salad of choice.  I could just eat it out of the pan!  ~smile~   You can top the chicken with cheese.  Add different veggies while sauteing.  Use pork chops instead of chicken.  Add stuffing on the bottom, put meat, sauteed veggies, stuffing on top.  Double and make more.  Put the meat on top....blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blaaaahhhhhhh......as my boys would say.  ~smile~  Enjoy!

Spinach Squares

I love spinach but it wasn't until recently that I decided I did.  I despised it as a child and would refuse to eat it, turning up my nose and closing my lips tightly.  Now, I eat it weekly baked or raw, I want it!   One of my twins eats it raw..he loves salads!  The other two boys, well I'm working on them.  Trying new ways.  They'll come around..in time.
