You’ve never tasted spaghetti until you’ve tasted spaghetti mixed with a rich creamy cheese sauce and baked until a fine level of perfection has been reached. This recipe combines everything you love about the classic Italian meal and so much more. We aren’t kidding, you won’t be able to put your fork down!

I find spaghetti cream cheese bake to be easier to make and much less of a mess than traditional spaghetti and meatballs. There are less pans to clean as everything you need eventually ends up in one baking dish. Savor the scents of pasta, fresh tomato sauce, and zesty spices wafting through your house as this amazing entree bakes. When I make this dish for my family, I can hardly contain myself until dinner time.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen! Tonight, we’ll be stepping out of our comfort zones and head on down the dusty trail of new tantalizing new foods. First stop, the Quinoa Highway.

If you aren’t familiar with quinoa, know this: it’s a grain from the Gods. Quinoa has been used in recipes for since ancient times. This great little grain makes a wonderful substitute for traditional noodles when making soups and stews. Plus, it’s packed with an assortment of good-for-you vitamins. We’re confident that once you cook up your first pot of quinoa vegetable soup, you’ll be hooked for life.

If you’re a fan of hearty vegetables swimming in a sea of savory broth, you’ve come to the right place. Nothing is better than a steaming bowl of soup on a chilly day. In fact, I enjoy soup so much that I eat it even when the days are bright and sunny, and I know you will too!

Are you looking for a way to spice up your lunch? Try chicken and noodle salad! This zesty dish has all the flavors that make food wonderful. Ginger and sesame seeds are just a few of the savory spices in the mix. We know you’re going to love this recipe because it tastes great and it’s super easy to make! That’s right, it’s insanely easy to throw together for a midday meal.

I like to prepare this recipe when I’m expecting lunch guests. It always goes over well because it’s not too heavy but not so light that you leave feeling hungry. Chicken and noodle salad goes well with a large pitcher of fruit-infused water or lemonade. Serve fruit bowls for dessert with a dollop of Cool Whip for a healthy noon meal!

When it comes to the ultimate in comfort foods, beef stew is definitely the ticket. Smelling the aroma of this fabulous stew as it simmers in a Crock Pot will give you feelings of nostalgia of when your mom or grandma used to cook this delectable dish. Filled with chunks of tender beef, hearty vegetables, and a thick gravy, this stew will warm your belly and soul.

Carrots, potatoes, onions, and more all cooked to delicate perfection for hours when set on low in the Crock Pot. Set it and forget it, lady! Do your shopping, go to work, or visit a friend, and by the time you get home, this marvelous stew will be ready to serve. I like to pair beef stew with a flaky buttermilk Pillsbury Grands! biscuit. My kids enjoy dipping their biscuits directly in the stew but I prefer to pour it on top. Yummo!

There’s no other dish that tips the table like green bean casserole. Think about it, what is the one food that almost everyone serves during the holidays? Green bean casserole. This is a food that pretty much everyone loves. It’s creamy, hot, and topped with French’s French fried onions, what could be better than that? Chocolate cake, you say? Okay, maybe that but not by much.

One of the best things about green bean casserole is that it is extremely customizable. This recipe is definitely a guide to help you create a wonderfully amazing dish, but feel free to add a dash of this and a dash of that to make this casserole mesh with your palate. I feel that green bean casserole is one of the easiest items to throw together when preparing food for a crowd. I’m certain you’ll feel the same way, too!

Wow. That’s all we can say about this awesome casserole. We all enjoyed fishing out the hunk of bacon fat from a can of baked beans when we were kids, right? Well, this recipe smothers the baked beans in crispy strips of bacon for a savory treat so mouthwatering you’re going to need a bib. Seriously, you won’t have any leftovers because they will all be in your belly.

Watch your family gobble up this meal like nobody’s business. I’m talking complete food inhalation. Whenever I place baked bean and bacon casserole on the table my husband and kids get this crazy look in their eyes like they are about to totally devour the food. And guess what? They do! I love making a meal that’s a winner with the fam.

I don’t know about you, but I absolutely LOVE French onion chip dip. Now, imagine my surprise when I discovered that you can cook with this heavenly spread. Nope, French onion dip isn’t just for dressing potato chips. In fact, you can make a mean French onion chicken and rice casserole that’s simply to die for. The best part? You only need a few ingredients!

If you have 20-minutes to spare, you can assemble this amazing bake for dinner tonight. Seriously, that’s all it takes! Toss your ingredients into a baking pan, set the oven to 350 degrees, and within an hour, you’ve got yourself a fantastic looking dish to serve to your family. Serve this main course with fresh fruit paired with a dollop of Cool Whip for dessert for a complete meal.
