Shepherd’s Pie in a Skillet

This recipe is fairly simple and easy to put together. You could leave off the French Fried Onions if you like. I might also try it with some shredded cheese the next time I make it.

If you don’t have an ovenproof skillet you could transfer the meat mixture to a 9×13 greased casserole dish and bake.

** I have been informed that it is technically a ‘Cottage Pie’ as it does not contain lamb… but you could make this with ground lamb if you like. Continue reading “Shepherd’s Pie in a Skillet”

Markdown Meals: Chicken Salad on Croissants

I don’t like to go grocery shopping but I always look for deals when I do.

I happened to pass by the deli section and found these rotisserie chickens marked down to $2.01! I’m not sure what they normally sell for but I grabbed two of them. One Traditional and one Lemon Pepper. I had also snagged a package of mini croissants on the markdown cart for less than $3.00.

Today I used the traditional chicken to make Super Easy Chicken Salad croissants. I served these with some cherry tomatoes on the side for a quick lunch.

Here is the recipe: Continue reading “Markdown Meals: Chicken Salad on Croissants”

Cheddar Chicken

I made this last night and sent the leftovers to a neighbor. We had mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, and some sauteed yellow squash with the chicken. Mr. Neighbor made sure to tell me how much enjoyed it when I saw him this morning.

Mr. Awesome also told me this evening that all he heard about today, all day long, was how good this chicken was. If you haven’t already given this recipe I try I encourage you to do so soon!

  • 2-3 lb package of chicken tenders
  • 2 sleeves Ritz crackers, finely crushed
  • 1/2 t salt

  • 1 t parsley flakes
  • 1/2 mayo

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400.
Grease a 9×13 pan or large baking sheet.

This is a huge favorite here at our house. So much better than any chicken nuggets you can buy also. My kids love to eat them with ranch dressing.

Deep-Fried Pork Chops

I haven’t been making these as often as my family would like but I did get enough requests that I made them tonight and everyone loved them. You could also fry them in a skillet on the stove if you like.
