Easiest pork chops - I buy the boneless ones, lay in baking pan, pour 1 can of Campbell's French Onion Soup over them, plus extra water it calls for... bake at 350 for 30 mins, flip them over, bake 30 more mins... so good.


Ummmmmm.... YUM!!! This is what I will be having for dinner tonight as well

homemade beef stew....... I've been so sick with this pregnancy it was the only thing that sounded good.......

I was nauseous the whole time making it today though...

We'll see if I eat it! DH will be happy I haven't cooked in months!

Chili and rice

i am cheating on the chili - use one of those spice bags from McCormick add beans, sauce and chopped meat - cook for a little bit and tada! the rice will be cooking in the rice cooker in the meantime!



i have to say, DH did this the other night; he bought the McCormick white bean chili spice, and except for being a tiny bit salty for me it was DELISH! Usually I always like the real thing but sometimes these make it so much easier!

i love when dh does that, that is one of the few things he is confident about cooking. He can only do the basic stuff when it comes to cooking

what about grilling steak, its pretty easy. Just put it on the grill and you can cook it 8 minutes on one side then 8 minutes on another side. Do you have any grilling blends? If so then just brush a little bit of olive oil on the steak and just rub some of the grilling blend on it, if not just do a little of salt and pepper. I also have a bernaise sauce recipe you can make with the steak if you want, its VERY simple, just takes alot of ingredients and theres alot of seasoning that you might not have at home right now.

A few easy sides to do it with

i personally prefer this with red potatoes, but cut a potato into small pieces, you can leave the skin on for the red ones. Boil a pot of water, when its boiling just throw the cut up pieces of potatoes into the pot. To know if they're done, just stick a fork into it, if its hard to put through then let it cook more. After its done put the potatoes into a collander to strain the water, then just put butter on the potatoes and i also just sprinkle parmesan cheese.

Sauteed spinach-buy fresh spinach or even frozen, the frozen will be easier bc its chopped and stems already cut off. Boil the spinach for just a few minutes. THen strain the spinach in a collander. In a saute pan put some olive oil when pan heats up throw chopped garlic into the pan. After about 2 mins throw in the spinach, and you can add salt and pepper to season.

Tonight-making shrimp and crab meat, dh of course wants this with beans(he always does) ill probably make it with a little bit of pasta on the side for myself, or make the shrimp and crabmeat in scampi or franchaise sauce for myself and make the pasta in the same sauce
