With most of the garden planted, we are currently in maintenance mood so that leads to some extra time. This weekend, I decided to turn some of that energy into cooking and trying new recipes. The focus of at least the next three weeks is to cook ahead so that the majority of the summer is spend relax and enjoying the pool. At least that is the current dream. Now to the recipes<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#23- Million Dollar Spaghetti Pie- this recipe is courtesy of a local extension agent. I discovered and copied it from a friend on Facebook. My friend had two recommendations- first to split the recipe into two pans and next to double the sauce. Both of these turned out to be great suggestions and we did both. Lily was actually in charge of this on Friday evening. It did take almost an hour to assemble and complete but it is definitely well worth the time! We all enjoyed this recipe and it will be a repeat in the future in addition to the second pan that is already in my freezer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
#24– Crock pot Monkey Bread <\/a>I wanted something sweet and since this was a fairly simple recipe, I decided to give it a try on Saturday. It used up the last can of biscuits so I will need to replace this. This recipe turned out ok. The edges burnt and the frosting was just too sweet for us. This is not a recipe that I will be repeating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n #25- Sausage Muffins<\/a>. Breakfast is definitely the hardest meal these days. No one wants to wake up early and everyone likes breakfast. This is another recipe that I found on Facebook so I can’t give the best credit to. You will notice that I have linked this recipe in my section just so I can keep up with it. I actually tried these on Sunday morning and made a second batch already that is available to use this week. I made one small change between the two batches, add in 2 additional eggs. We all felt like they needs some topping so Matt and Zach added hot sauce while I went with syrup. Kendall is a plain girl but still ate two which is a huge success. This are really easy to make and we plan to heat for 30 seconds in the microwave for breakfast!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" With most of the garden planted, we are currently in maintenance mood so that leads to some extra time.
