Scalloped Potatoes

To contact us Click HERE

   Ummm.. yes, this another potato recipe. I am fully addicted to starchy, delicious potatoes and I'm the first to admit it. Admitting your addictions is the first step, my friends. The first step.
   Even though I'm admitting my addiction, I wont be trying to recover anytime soon. Especially now that I've made these sinful things. Thinly sliced potatoes, layered with smoked Gouda cheese and fresh chives.... *drool*


Scalloped Potatoes
3-4 large Idaho Potatoes, thinly sliced
1-1/2 cups smoked Gouda cheese, shredded1-1/2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shreddedfresh Chives, choppedsalt & pepper

Directions:  Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray an 8x8 glass baking pan with non-stick spray.
 Layer potato slices, slightly overlapping. Sprinkle a tiny bit of salt & pepper, and then top with both cheeses and a few chives. Repeat layer, 2 more times. You will have 3 layers total.
Cover with foil, and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil, and bake another 10-15 minutes or until cheese is slightly browned and bubbly. Let stand a few minutes before serving.

Barbecue Cups

To contact us Click HERE

   I love fun, new ideas for dinner. These barbecue cups fit the bill. I saw these on my friend Brandy's blog a few weeks ago. I immediately bookmarked the recipe and decided to make them last week.

   They are biscuit dough filled with cooked ground beef that's drenched in barbecue sauce, and topped off with some cheddar cheese. Pop em' in the oven for 10 minutes or so, and dinner is done! So easy, and so good!




Barbecue Cups

1 pound lean ground beef
1 cup barbecue sauce
1 (12 ounce) can refrigerated biscuits
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese


Directions:  Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a muffin tin with non-stick spray. Set aside.

Cook ground beef in a medium skillet until brown. Drain grease. Pour in barbecue sauce. Stir and cook until heated through. About 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat.

Seperate biscuits, and then press them up and along sides of muffin tins. Divide the beef mixture evenly between each biscuit dough cup. (You may have a little meat leftover). Sprinkle each with shredded cheddar cheese.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.  Serve!

Mozzarella & Pepperoni Stuffed Chicken

To contact us Click HERE

  We eat a lot of chicken at our house. It's healthy, it tastes good and there's a million ways to dress it up! I knew this Mozzarella & Pepperoni version would be awesome. It tastes like pizza without the crust.

   I changed the original recipe just a little bit. I stuffed ours with turkey-pepperoni, and a slice of mozzarella. Then I coated the chicken in dried Italian bread crumbs. You could make this even more wonderful by adding some fresh cut up veggies too. I think I'll do that next time.

My house smelled heavenly as it baked. This chicken was pure deliciousness!


Mozzarella & Pepperoni Stuffed Chicken

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 (1 ounce) slices Mozzarella cheese, plus 1 cup shredded Mozzarella
16 slices pepperoni
dried basil
garlic powder
1/2 cup dried Italian bread crumbs
1 jar Marinara sauce
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese


Directions:  Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9x13 baking pan with non-stick spray. Set aside.

Rinse chicken with water, and pat dry. Trim off any visible fat. Cut a deep, horizontal pocket in each piece of chicken. (Be careful not to cut all the way through) Stuff each chicken breast with one slice of Mozzarella cheese and 4 pepperoni slices. Sprinkle the tops of pepperonis with a dash of dried basil and garlic powder. Close the chicken breasts, and secure with a toothpick.

Spread the bread crumbs in a shallow dish or plate. Dredge each breast into the bread crumbs to coat lightly. Place all the coated and stuffed chicken breasts into the baking pan.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Remove pan from oven, and then remove the toothpicks from each chicken breast. Pour about 1/4 cup of marinara over each chicken breast. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Place back in oven and bake another 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serves 4
