Sometimes on lunch break from school I'll make a pack of ramen, while the waters going (what does that take like 3 minutes?) I melt some butter, add a little lemon juice, and throw in some capers. Toss it with the noodles and finish with some cracked pepper and fresh grated parm. Super fast...

I bought one of those pots from Sam's Club and I could be wrong but I believe they're made by Lodge just with the Sam's Club private label. I got mine last year and I think its fantastic. Of course I've never had a le creuset so I guess I don't know what I'm missing. But I refer to it as the...

I watched two movies friday night, All About Steve, (all about how not to be entertaining), and Julie and Julia which was ok but not great.

I save time by prepping any veggies I can on the weekends or just buying the pre-frozen onions, peppers, etc. I also found a good way to spice a boring pork chop or piece of chicken is to make my own spice mixes when I get some time. It doesn't take much time to fix a piece of chicken and a few...

It's my little brother's birthday so we the family is meeting out for some japanese food and some hot sake! Powerplantop your meal looks amazing!

Its ridiculously cold but we finally got a break in the snow today. I've got about a foot of snow on the ground and need to go shovel again.

I bought a bag of radishes to put on the veggie tray at christmas since I have a family member who loves them. Of course they only ate a few and now I have a whole bag of radishes left. What do I do with them? I don't mind snacking on them but I know I won't eat that whole bag. Any ideas?

I roasted a chicken this weekend for a family members picky child who didn't eat ham; who then decided he loved ham. So I made broth last night and will be making chicken noodle soup tonight.

This is how my grandma did it, only I thought she added flour too. Maybe I'll try it without the flour, maybe that's how I keep screwing it up. Thanks AuntieV! I did bake mac n cheese for the holidays. I made the white sauce and then melted cheese in. I didn't use velveeta, just what I had on...

Just getting up and going this morning but i will be fixing a ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potato casserole, chicken and noodles, green bean casserole, sweet corn, cheese ball, deviled eggs, all kinds of cookies, and pumpkin pie. Oh and a roast chicken for some little ones who don't eat...

Grilled chicken, carrots, and macaroni and cheese.

I'm getting ready to make some simple peanut butter cookies, but tomorrow is when I'm going cookie crazy!

I made a pot of chicken corn chowder last night and that will be what we will be snacking on between naps and bumming today.

I usually can find macadamia nuts in the snack aisle at walgreens.

Thanks for all the tips, I never thought to try velveeta in combination with the other cheeses. Something I will have to try since I have had the cheese break up on me. I can't wait to try it!

For my tuition and books to be magically taken care of.

I am looking for some tips and ideas for a really great baked macaroni and cheese. My grandma used to do one that was really simple with just cheddar, milk, flour, and pasta (obviously) and it was delish. I just can't seem to get it right. I've tried out several recipes with different cheeses...

Doing some smothered pork chops, mashed taters, and something green.

Sorry it took so long for me to respond! It's the end of the semester and I've been really busy, but I wanted to thank everyone for their great tips. I made the soup for my BF's parents and luckily it turned out delicious! My only regret was not making more soup!

Thanks for all the ideas except now I'm starving! I forgot about soaking the beans overnight so I'm glad you explained a quick soak method. I can't wait to make this today. Let you all know how it went! And Velochic, I like in Starke County so I'm not that far north anymore, but I grew up in...

Lemon roasted chicken, green beans with shallots, and macaroni and cheese (for the BF).

I froze my ham shank from turkey day with the idea of making ham and bean soup. I have not, however, ever made ham and bean soup and I could use some tips/ideas. It's supposed to be cold and snowing here tomorrow and I would love a big pot of hot soup to warm me up tomorrow night. Help!

I would do a cheeseball with finger holes in it, corny but cute :)

I love to roast chicken! I bought one of those cheap beer can chicken holders and use it to prop up the chicken without the beer. I make an herb seasoning mix and rub that under the skin and then put melted butter under as well. Throw an onion or lemon in the neck opening and throw the whole...
