Cajun Artichoke Green Chile Dip

We had something similar at the office recently to celebrate a work anniversary. It was so good! It would be great with shrimp… I thought we had some and didn’t so I made it anyway and will try it again another day with shrimp. Let’s Get Crafty! Ingredients:1 block cream cheese1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese1/3-1/2…

Meatball Crescent Cups

We had these while visiting my sister-in-law a couple months back. They were so good and the kids loved them too. Win! Win! Rather than step-by-step instructions, I’m going to list the ingredients and then the pictures will do the work for the assembly steps. Hope you enjoy! Let’s Get Crafty! Ingredients: 12 frozen meatballs…

Table Nachos!

The kids looked skeptical when I explained the idea. We did this for Em’s birthday and it was a hit. We put the main ingredients directly on the table nachos and used bowls for the rest of the ingredients so people could add the toppings they wanted. Let’s Get Crafty! Ingredients: These were so fun!…

Big Mac Sloppy Joes

Truth be told – I don’t think I’ve ever eaten a Big Mac from McDonalds. I think it’s because I was always put off by those tiny onions that seemed to take over and couldn’t seem to ever be completely removed. I have, however, tasted that sauce and it was wonderful. It is also the…

Fruit Dump Cake

 I remember making this for the first time shortly after I had graduated from high school and living in my first rental house with a close friend.  It is ridiculously easy and so darn delicious. There are so many different flavor combinations and I’ve always been the biggest fan of this classic cherry and pineapple…

Baked Chicken Chile Rellenos

So… this was supposed to stuffed poblano peppers but I broke 2 out of the 4 peppers when I was peeling them in too big of a hurry.  What happened instead was a very yummy surprise.   Let’s Get Crafty! Preheat oven to 500 Rub olive oil on poblano peppers and broil on a baking sheet…

Chile Relleno Casserole

Fall time is in the air and chiles are reaching their prime.  This recipe is packed with green chile flavor.  The big discussion in our house each year about this time is whether or not the chiles will be hot.  I really like hot food but a chile full of flavor means more to me…

Ravioli with Meat Sauce – NO BOIL (Whoohoo!)

I’m always on the hunt for quick and easy dinners and this one definitely fits the bill.  We don’t eat ravioli often here and I bought some because I wanted to try it in the air fryer.  Well… I haven’t done that and came home last Friday night tired and wanting to make dinner fast…

Scalloped Potatoes in the Instant Pot

I love potatoes.  Very much.  I could probably eat them every day and be in hog heaven.  These scalloped potatoes are pretty darn good and came together fast.  I had just gotten a 7 inch cake pan to use in the Instant Pot and have been itching to use it.  This seemed like a great…
