Allen - your stew sounds good to me! I would toss in some spices - maybe some thyme or a bay leaf or two. For us tonight we're having Shake n Bake Chicken Fingers with Mac N Cheese (out of a box - I know - but its a work night and I just don't want to make homemade) and broccoli.

Thanks for the responses. I totally didn't even think of my crockpot for some reason. I think I'm going to go with letscook's method though...marinate it overnight and then cook it covered tomorrow.

I'm thinking of trying this for dinner tomorrow night. I figure I'll buy a cut up chicken, slather some bottled bbq sauce on it and bake it in the oven. Served with some baked beans and coleslaw it should remind us of summer (which needs to be done every now and then when you live in a place...

My mom also made so many great things. Her ham dinners with ham gravy were among the best. Her bbq sauce for chicken on the grill. Lasagna, chicken divan, and no bake cookies were all great too. MMMM....this is making me want to move back home!

1. The best day of the week for me is....Sunday - the only day I get to wake up and spend the whole day with my hubby since he works Monday - Saturday 2. The best job I ever had was....Working in the paint department of Chase Pitkin (our local version of Home Depot) while a teenager/college kid...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Hope you enjoy your meal....it sounds great. I've never tried gator but heard its yummy.

Constance, This probably sounds stupid....but what is canned chicken gumbo?

After Thanksgiving this year, we didn't have a chance to use up all of our leftover turkey. I divided it up, put it in ziploc bags and threw it in the freezer. Do you guys think it is still usuable? Can I just thaw it out in the fridge and use it in a tetrazzini or other type of turkey...

I've got another "poor supper" that has been in my family forever....my grandma served it, my mom served it, and now I serve it. A lot of people have never heard of it. Soupburgers - brown about a pound of ground beef, add two or three cans of vegetarian vegetable soup (depends on how far you...

Thanks all! I wasn't online over the weekend and came in today to find all these great suggestions. I can't wait to try them out!

Mmmm. Mac N Cheese sounds yummy. But we're having Beef Stroganoff that my crockpot cooked for me with salad and garlic bread.

These sound so good! I'm an Oreo lover.....especially the mint Oreos. I can't wait to try these out.

Good luck with whatever it is! My resolution is to pick up the guitar. I tried last year and only stuck with it for a couple of weeks before I got too busy and quit trying. I'm hoping to make more time for it this year. Also as always there's the lose weight and get in shape resolution...

This is interesting to me because my crockpot cooks "hot" too. I find that I have to cook things on low rather than high otherwise they dry out. I just use the low setting for the amt of time reccommended in the recipe for the high setting and it seems to work fine.

That sounds like just the thing for a snowy night. I'll definately be trying it soon.
