More Recipe's!

So i've been having a BLAST making new tasty things for my little family! I Love the time i have now to make a good home made dinner for Saia that is ready when he comes home from work. Also, the left overs are always just as good! Here are a few things (with recipe's attached) that i've made the past week and a half that we just loved.

Cafe Rio Salad!

The only thing(s) i did differently, was bought cilantro lime rice and used HEB Chicken Fajita Meat instead of the cafe rio recipe for their meat. The meat i ate at cafe rio was the only thing i never liked about the place.. it was always DRY! Using HEB's fajita meat made the salad 10 times better. No lie. You'll have to try it yourself!

Ham & Cheese Sammies!

We tweaked this one a teeny bit too - we used Pepper Jack Cheese instead of Swiss :) It was delicious :)

Crock Pot Buffalo Chicken

WE LOVED THIS. Not to mention, it was the EASIEST thing i think i've ever put together. I was a little worried, wondering if i'd like it because im not a "wing sauce" fan at all, due to the vinegar that is in almost each and every bottle! I can definatly say though, that these were delicious. We bought Hoagie rolls and ate them as sandwitches as suggested with the Recipe. We put lettuce and a little ranch on each sandwitch to add a little crunch and flavor, as well. We ate these for a few days, as it truly makes enough for lots of leftovers! It wasn't too spicy, either. Definatly give these a try, you wont be disappointed!

Seafood Alfredo (olive garden recipe!)

My husband LOVES Olive Garden's Alfredo sauce, so i figured i'd give it a try! It was of course, delicious. We added sauteed Shrimp, as well. Two Thumbs Up!

Marshmallow, Butter, Cinnamon Crescents!

I made these this past weekend for breakfast and we had hot chocolate with them. THEY ARE DIVINE. I had tried them in the past as a teenager, but never since. So when i stumbled across the recipe, i was so excited! They are the easiest little things to make, so definatly give them a try!

DIRT CAKE!!

Dirt cake has been a favorite of mine for yeaaaarrrssss. I used to have my mom make it for my birthday for years. I just love it. It's so simple, and so delicious! If you've never had it, definatly whip some up.
