One of my sisters friends, Mary, has a blog. She has "Meal Idea Monday" and will post a recipe. How cute is that? Well, this week I have made two of her recipes off of her blog. And both of them were tasteeee! You know what is funny? My sister said that most of her recipes that she has posted on here have come from Mary. Ha ha! Mary, if you are reading this, thanks sooooo much! We love all your recipes!

Mexican Lasagna

Meal Idea Monday

Mexican Lasagna

1lb. ground beef or turkey
1 pkg. dry taco mix seasoning
1 c. water
12 (6") corn tortillas
1 c. salsa
1 (8oz.) can tomato sauce
1 (15oz.) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (4oz.) can sliced black olives, drained
1 (4oz.) can mild chilies, drained
2 c. shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brown meat; add seasoning and 1 cup water. Cook until thick. Spray a 9 X 13 pan. Place 6 tortillas on bottom of pan, overlapping them. Mix salsa and tomato sauce; set aside. Top tortillas with half the meat, corn, olives, and chilies. Pour half the salsa and sauce mixture over this and sprinkle with 1 cup of the cheese. Repeat, finishing with cheese. Bake 20 minutes. Serves 6-8.

I got this recipe out of a kid friendly cookbook, and it's a hit w/ the family...including the kids. I omit the olives and it is still tasty.


*Instead of olives I put onions* Yum!

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!

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 ...

This recipe is so common I am not even sure if I should post it. However, if you do not have a recipe for this or have never had it you have GOT to try it. Such a Southern recipe. Grew up having it and everyone in college made it. Ha! 3 sleeves Ritz Crackers 4 or 5 boneless chicken breast 1 can cream of mushroom soup 1 can cream of chicken soup 8 oz sour cream 1 stick butter Melt 1/2 stick butter in 9x13 dish. Crush 1 1/2 sleeves of crackers and pour into butter. Stir and spread over bottom of dish. Shred COOKED chicken(boil it to cook it) and layer over crackers. Mix sour cream and both soups together and pour over chicken. Melt 1/2 stick of butter in a mixing bowl. Crush remaining crackers and add to butter. Stir until mixed well then add to top of casserole. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
