The best EVER potato dish – and super simple, too!

I absolutely love au-gratin potatoes I will order them by default anytime I am at the steakhouse. Most of the time, though, they are considered a side dish – but it doesn’t have to be that way! This recipe has a unique twist.

If you’re like me, you’d be happy to have just au-gratin potatoes for dinner, seven days a week, and you wouldn’t get tired of them! With this recipe your family might not think you’re crazy anymore, because you can now amp up the side dish and turn it into your main course. Not only do these potatoes have the normal cheese and somewhat normal bacon, but these also have full boneless skinless chicken breasts which actually turns this in to a complete meal.

Not only is this easy but with the addition of the boneless skinless breasts it is relatively healthy as well. This would be perfect for your next pot luck or tailgate party. Please let us know how yours turns out and as always please share with all of your friends.

Hands up, everyone, if you like Snickers! Two hands up right here, because I could not imagine my life without it. When I was a kid I used to hate Snickers. I’m not exactly sure why; I did love all kinds of chocolate but Snickers just was something I couldn’t stand. But you know when you grow up, your taste buds kind of grow up, too! These days I grab a Snickers 9 times out of 10, if I’m going to get a chocolate bar in the first place.

So trying this recipe was an absolute must for me. How can you go wrong with Snickers ice-cream bars made into a cake! You can’t, honestly. This is also surprisingly easy for such a complex looking and tasting dessert. It presents itself really well for your next summer party or backyard family BBQ. Your guests wont believe you made it! Especially if you eat it all before they even arrive…

Chicken tenders are the favorite of many, but sometimes these fried little things kind of feel a little too heavy. If you’re trying to live a healthier, lighter lifestyle, it doesn’t mean you have to give up on all the good things in life! This is a healthier way to make chicken tenders, and I promise you it’s so simple you hardly have to lift a finger. These Parmesan Chicken tenders are so moist and juicy! The coating on them is amazing, and I’ll tell you why.

Obviously because of the Parmesan, but also because of the cornflakes. This creates a very unique flavor that my whole family enjoyed. They can also be made in bulk and re-heated rather easily. These are much healthier than the fried ones – besides, you get to tweak the recipe a little by choosing a different cheese, for example Romano or Asiego.

Wow, I love pies and I love cheesecake – and this amazing summery Lemon Lush dessert has some of the qualities of both while delivering a refreshing lemon flavor perfect for any time of year.

Different variations of this recipe have been around for years – decades, even, but this one really stood out from the crowd because of the little extra tweaks. The original creator of this dessert recipe has added some really nice touches to this recipe. For instance the crust has little chopped pieces of pecans that really add what I call the “Southern” dimension to this dessert. This is such an easy dessert to put together, and if your family doesn’t like lemon – just use a different type of pudding mix! This is sure to impress your family or would be perfect for your next potluck.

This is a very versatile recipe and you can change it up in multiple ways, to fit your taste better – or just to keep it fresh and new every time you make it. And I guarantee you are going to be making it often!

Quick Tip: Instead of pecans you can use other nuts for the crust.

Right now I’m dreaming of tropical nights somewhere on the other side of the world… It’s fall and the weather is getting chilly – I just don’t want to let go of the summer yet! Fortunately there’s an easy way to bring back the summer vibes, and I don’t even have to purchase plane tickets. This pie sort of reminds me of coconut cream but the pineapple turns it into a super delicious and refreshing summer dessert.

There are a couple of really nice touches the maker of this recipe came up with. First off the addition of the Malibu Rum in the coconut cream filling is spot on! Next, by adding the pineapple juice and the coconut extract to the heavy whipping cream, it just really brings the flavor profile of this pie together and tastes well thought out. This pie will be a big hit with your family – and if you’re planning on inviting friends over for dinner, this should absolutely be your dessert!

What An Incredibly Easy Way To Make A Restaurant Quality Meal!

At first glance, this pasta doesn’t look like much, but that’s just a clever disguise. In Italy, many of the most delicious pasta dishes look very plain but hit your taste buds with a pow! This dish is exactly like that. Serve this to your loved ones and they are certainly in for a surprise! I’m pretty sure my husband thinks I was somehow able to smuggle an Italian chef into the kitchen! But no, I just followed this recipe I found over at Dinner Delish. It is super creamy and has a really rich flavor from the heavy cream and the Parmesan cheese.

The tricky ingredient that just makes this pasta really pop is the chicken broth. There is a huge difference in the end result making the pasta this way! Your family will love this pasta plus the fact that this is a one pot dish makes for easy and convenient clean-up.

Who doesn’t desire an easy clean-up? I know that if any of you raise your hands you are probably a glutton for punishment LOL! Seriously, though, make this garlic pasta. You won’t regret it!

Quick Tip: Use your favorite cheese instead of Parmesan!

This is a classic southern white sheet cake with chocolate fudge frosting. My Grandmother in Mississippi used to make a cake very similar to this to bring to the church potluck on Sunday’s. It was always everyone’s favorite cake!

One of the key ingredients to keep that southern flavor is the light corn syrup. Whenever I can taste a hint of it I automatically think of a southern dessert! When I was a kid I had a friend whose mother used to make the icing a little differently. Instead of corn syrup she added strong, black coffee. It was one of the best cakes I’ve ever tasted so if you want to go ahead and experiment with new flavors, use coffee! This cake is sure to be a hit with your family or its also great for a potluck or a tailgate.
