Quick Meatloaf & PotatoesStart to finish this can be on the table in 30 minutes, which represents 15 minutes of prep and 15 minutes cook time in the microwave. This meal-in-one recipe comes from the heyday of microwave cooking in the 80's and 90's, and is always a family pleaser. Of course it can be baked in a 350 degree F. conventional oven instead, for an… |

Southwestern Mac & CheeseSouthwestern Mac & Cheese, we have to laugh, of all the recipes we get asked for from gourmet to down home, what we get the most requests for is macaroni and cheese. Our date night was coming up so I asked Ken what he was in the mood for thinking he would say steak or ribs. Nope, he wanted a creamy mac & cheese with a little flavor… |

Lotta Cheese Cheese BurgerWe got a complaint from some friends that when they go out for burgers the meat is paper thin and the cheese, if you can find any, is tasteless. We had no choice but to say “See you tomorrow, come hungry!” Everyone was happily stuffed and knew they were eating a cheese burger. They may be back again tomorrow. Not only was there 2… |

Garden Marinara Sauce with SpaghettiThis marinara is chock full of veggies, and served atop whole grain spaghetti noodles, makes a guilt-free pasta entrée. Use the last of summer’s garden tomatoes, or use canned if time is short. It fills your whole home with a wonderful Italian aroma as it cooks! |

Savory Herb MeatloafI keep Stove Top stuffings on hand to use in place of leftover breadcrumbs, so I decided to add some to a meatloaf recipe. It turned out very tasty. Will be liked by kids who don't like "things" like onions. |

Oven Baked Chicken ParmesanEasy to prepare, lower calorie version of this dish. For maximum tenderness, I recommend brining the breasts in 2 qts. water and 1/2 C table salt for 1 to 1 1/2 hours and rinsing them in cold water for several minutes. Or, take a kitchen mallet or rolling pin and put the whammy on 'em. |

Zucchini Meatballs in Cream Sauce - Microwave Quick!Several good reasons to save this recipe: to use up zucchini; to keep the kitchen cool by microwaving the main dish; and because the meatballs are loaded with veggies, are moist and creamy. This is one of my two all-time FAVS from the peak microwave cookbook era of the 80's and 90's. If you prefer, use homemade cream sauce in place of… |

Crunchy Chicken or Turkey CasseroleGreat for leftover turkey, or use rotisserie chicken for convenience. To stretch the dish to serve more people, add some cooked rice or pasta and use a full cup of mayonnaise. |

Garlic Lovers ChickenChicken was on sale this week and Patti found a beauty, it was over 7lbs. so we had plenty left over for an awesome spontaneous picnic the next day with cold chicken. The sauce was simple with lots of flavor. Ken especially loved the 40 or so cloves of garlic. The longer garlic cooks the sweeter it gets. Plus, with our Pacific Living… |

Southwestern Beer Can BurgersWe have been seeing folks post their beer can burgers for the last few weeks, all of them looking good. We wanted to take it to the next level by adding a “Southwestern” twist to it. We started with the very best ground beef: Fresh ground sirloin and blending that with some beef chorizo for 1 pound burgers with a nice blend of… |

Gino's Alfredo SauiceAlfredo Sauce is the rage today and is used in many ways over food. Many restaurants feature this sauce and, it is available, in jars, in most grocery stores. In our home, we have used this sauce for many years i. I have learned this recipe from my mother, but have made some changes. I know you will like it. Try it. |
