Buffalo Bleu Burgers

This is a go-to favorite for burgers~ you can use beef, chicken or turkey

1 lb. ground meat

4 Tbsp. buffalo wing sauce

1/4 cup bleu cheese crumbles

1/4 cup diced celery

 

Mix all ingredients together and shape into burgers or meatballs. Cook

**NOTE**

I usually double or triple the batch. I make half burgers and half meatballs. I freeze the meatballs for another meal. Top with whatever toppings you like. I enjoy bleu cheese dressing, tomatoes and lettuce on mine.

Crock pot roasted chicken..Pinterest Thumbs up

I was a little hesitant to try roasting a whole chicken in the crock pot. I was worried that it wouldn't be cooked through and through. Thank goodness I decided to try this recipe. It was amazing. This smelled amazing all day too. The only comment I received, was to add more of the spices. I agree. Next time, I will double the amount of spices. I would also suggest, do not add any water. Not unless the crock pot is bone dry. Our chicken had enough juices that I didn't need to add any water.

Pinterest Creamy White Chicken and Artichoke Lasagna

This was amazing. Absolutely, to die for, amazing! I messed up adapted the recipe to fit our schedule. In short, I didn't plan my menu well for that day.

Instead of making this a casserole, I knew I would be short on time. I changed the lasagna noodles to penne pasta and only used half of the spinach. If I put "too much" green "stuff" in the food, the kids get a little cagey about eating it. I needed this to be a slow cooker meal. I cooked and drained the pasta, then layered the remaining ingredients and put the cooker on low for 5 hours. Delish! Next time, I will try the original recipe, as it is written.

Pinterest Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

Another Pinterest hit in my house!! Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole. You can find the original recipe by following this link.

http://organizeyourstuffnow.com/wordpress/chicken-cordon-bleu-casserole

The only change I would make to this recipe is would be to use only 1 can of cream of chicken and 1/2 cup more of sour cream. This cream of chicken was just too much. It masked some of the flavor this could have had. I had no left-overs. I believe this will freeze well. Great recipe if you are batch cooking. Comfort food at its best~
