Crock Pot Cheesy Tortellini by Ashley Self

My friend Lisa sent me this recipe and I made it last night for dinner.  My boys absolutely loved it, as did Jeremy and I.  I also made a simple salad to go with it.  I actually doubled it and it made a ton, so we will be eating on it this weekend.  I love having leftovers for the weekend to just grab instead of going out or having to cook. 
 
Ingredients:
1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 lb sausage (I used Owens sausage)
15 oz. of marinara sauce
1 cup of fresh sliced mushrooms (I used canned)
1 can of Italian diced tomatoes
9 oz. refrigerated cheese tortellini's ( I used whole wheat)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
 
Directions:
Brown beef and sausage in skillet.  Mix with marinara, tomatoes, and mushrooms in crock pot and cook covered on low heat for 7-8 hours. Stir in tortellini's and add mozzarella cheese on top about 20 minutes or until the tortellini's are heated through.
 
Enjoy!!

Chocolate Sour Cream Bundt Cake

I have not posted in a REALLY long time. :( Sorry friends. Life has gotten a hold of me. I am 6 weeks and 1 day away from birthing my 4th and final baby. :) I am happy about this!! VERY! Needless to say an *almost* 6yo boy, 4yo boy, 2yo girl, and soon to be a sweet baby girl has kept me very busy. I hope that once this baby is born and life is on a good routine I will start posting again. I am glad this blog isn't totally left up to me or it would be a failure! Thanks to my Mom, sister, and sister in law for continuing to post.        Ok, I was really wanting to bake a chocolate bundt cake bc I saw a recipe online of one and it made me crave one. I don't know why but I love baking bundt cakes. They are pretty and I don't have to do much of anything to make them that way. And usually they are yummy! But when I went back to find that recipe I couldn't. I, instead, found this one and it really is SO good! Probably my favorite chocolate cake I have ever made. And it is ...

Buffalo Chicken Chili

Hey Friends!! This recipe is super easy and quite good. Beware that it is a little spicy. If you like wings or anything buffalo style then you will like this. Buffalo Chicken Chili Ingredients : 2 chicken breasts (cooked & shredded or raw & whole) I used 3 total. 1/2 bottle Frank's Buffalo Sauce 1 (15.5-oz) can beans (garbanzo, black, pinto, whatever!) I used garbanzo. 1 large sweet onion, chopped 2 (15-oz) can tomato sauce (oops! I think I only used 1 can) 1 can cream-style corn 1 cup salsa 2 jalapenos, seeded and chopped I used sliced jalapenos in a jar. Directions : Dump everything into the crockpot, and stir well. Cook on low for 8-10 hours. If your chicken was raw when you put it in, take it out after about 8 hours, shred it, and then stir it back into the chili. Enjoy!
