Pizzadillas
When you want pizza, but don't feel like making it. Or don't feel like another call for delivery. And you don't want frozen...again. Make these babies instead. WAY WAY WAY cheaper than any of the above listed pizza alternatives and super easy to 'personalize' with your favorite toppings and pizza flavors. With my boys, I set up a 'pizza bar' and they can choose what … [Read more...]
Instant Pot Shredded Hawaiian Chicken Sandwiches
Love me some shredded chicken from the Instant Pot. I love how hands off these recipes are, and how well the flavor is infused into the chicken and sauce as the food is heated and pressurized inside the EPC. Here are 2 great resources for you related to making shredded chicken in the Instant Pot :) Instant Pot Shredded Chicken - 10 Ways to Make It!! Instant Pot … [Read more...]
Beef & Veggie Biscuit Pot Pie
Oh, so hearty and filling! This is a great "skillet to oven" dinner - where you prep and heat the bottom layer in a skillet (in this case, browning ground beef and warming the veggies) and then you top it with biscuits and bake. You can use the same dish - like an ovenproof or cast iron skillet. Or, you could use a skillet or saucepan to prepare the bottom layer and then … [Read more...]

Stuffed Breakfast French Loaf
Brinner - just might be our family's favorite kind of dinner. What's brinner? It's "breakfast for dinner" - br-inner! I also love brinners because they usually don't require much thought or energy...but recently I was inspired to use a French loaf with our brinner and the end result --- divine! This is the kind of thing you could order at one of those breakfast places. … [Read more...]
Spinach Ravioli Lasagna
I took one bite of this and pretty much didn't put my fork down until I was perfectly stuffed! This meal is much faster to put together than a lasagna because you're putting the fresh or frozen ravioli into the baking dish without cooking it. You add a little water, plus the water from the marinara sauce, and the ravioli is cooked to perfection. You will 'layer' the sauce, … [Read more...]
Ginger Peach Pork Chops
There's just something about a simple, fruity glaze that I love on pork chops. This glaze happened 'by accident' as I was fishing around the pantry for ingredients and turns out it's just lovely. The peach preserves plus the ginger and a little sesame oil - it's a great balance of simple and well matched flavors. Plus, my boys will gobble, gobble, gobble this up! Also, … [Read more...]
Cinnamon French Toast with Berries
Gone. Wiped out. Polished clean. And there might have been some licking of plates. (Because, when else does mom include sugar with dinner!?!) Pretty much only at a 'brinner' like this! We love breakfast for dinner at our house - love it. And this recent 'brinner meal' brought everyone to the table quickly, and everyone literally cleaned their plates. (Yes, we had a … [Read more...]
Skillet Caprese Chicken
This recipe is one of our new MyFreezEasy meals. And while I've written the directions below for making it as a "fresh meal," I would highly recommend freezing the chicken with the oil and balsamic because it will marinate beautifully as it thaws! These fabulous flavors combine in a skillet to make an amazing, fresh and 'light' weeknight dinner. Also, I highly recommend the … [Read more...]
