4/6/11 - Favorite Recipes

A little birdie keeps asking for the recipes I use for dinner on "Old Favorite" night. Here is a small snippet of what we like to eat!

Disclaimer: I am not a low-fat kind of girl.

Baked Creamy Chicken Taquitos - I use flour tortillas.

Stuffed Pizza Rolls

Pepperoni Pizza Puffs

Cheesy Apple Pancakes

Simple Hearty White Chili - a Dutch oven or an enameled cast iron pot is a MUST for this recipe.

Cajun Chicken Pasta

Spaghetti with Zesty Bolognese

Johnny Carino's Bowtie Festival - I always double the sauce

Cheesecake Factory Chipotle Pasta - If you don't like A LOT of heat, do NOT add more than 3/4 tablespoon of the peppers in adobo sauce. Also, you need to add asparagus, and red pepper strips when you are sauteing the onions and garlic. Mix in frozen peas right before you serve the pasta. Top with crispy tortilla strips. I LOVE this pasta but I never make it because Luke doesn't like spicy things.

Creamy Mexican Chicken Pasta - I use a couple of boxes of Thick and Creamy Mac n' Cheese. I also use ground beef instead of chicken.

Ham and Cheddar in a Loaf - We also make this into a pizza version with sauce, cheese and pizza toppings.

Spring Risotto - Luke's favorite. I add chopped sliced deli ham.

Southwest Chicken Salad Panini - My favorite. I add chili sauce to make it spicier.

Creamy Broccoli Soup - I have tired a lot of recipes for this kind of soup. This one is my favorite.

Zuppa Tuscona Soup

Cream Cheese Chicken and Vegetable Soup - I use Lil' Smokies instead of chicken.

Creamy Corn and Turkey Soup - I use chicken.

White Chicken Enchiladas - I use flour tortillas.
