We’ve all had a good chicken and cheese quesadilla at least once in our lives, and boy are they good! How about stuffing your tortilla with bacon, egg, and cheese? Now THAT is something to try!

Why haven’t I ever thought of this before!? I’m sure you’ve had breakfast burritos before, but a breakfast quesadilla? Yup, I’m making this ASAP! No need for a quesadilla maker, you can make these right in a frying pan. Top these with some salsa and you are in for one delicious morning meal.

Want a filling meal for summer but don’t want to spend loads of time by a running stove after you have spent all day dodging the summer heat?  Consider making this Southwestern Chicken Pasta Salad.  Put it together in under half an hour, with little stove heat required (just enough to cook a pound of cut-up skinless boneless chicken).  It makes a bunch and is great for a summer picnic or for those early football tailgates, when it is still rather warm outside.

There is plenty to love about good summer cooking.  After a while, though, you can get a little tired of standing by a hot oven or stove (or by a grill in the summer heat).  If you need something to cool you off a bit, a good cold salad does the job well.  (If you are looking for a main course, that is.  I love a bit of ice cream now and then, as I am sure y’all do.)  This recipe takes the basic pasta salad idea and kicks it up a notch, Southwestern-style.  It makes a bunch and is addictively tasty, so be warned!

Quick tip: This dish will taste even better the next day, so make sure you’ll have enough for leftovers!

Great for when you want a healthy, relatively low-cal, filling homemade meal but are just too busy to spend all day standing over the stove.

I just love a good stew, don’t you?  Done right, it is something light and flavorful enough for a summer lunch and yet rich and soothing enough to warm you up on the chilliest winter nights.

Mother, God rest her sweet soul, frowned on using crock pots.  She insisted on doing everything the good old-fashioned way – and did it brilliantly.  But crock pots have their uses:  Do a small bit of prep the night before; drop all of the ingredients into the pot, plug it in, and just forget about it for eight hours.  By the time evening rolls around, with no further effort on your part, you have a nice, healthy, homemade meal.

If you are tired of falling back on store-bought frozen meals and are looking for a simple way to turn beef and veggies into a tasty dinner, this crock pot stew is for you! Just consider making a double batch… this is so tasty it will be gone in the blink of an eye!
