Casa de Lindquist - Food

Easily one of our favorite meals involves some kind of meat, mashed potatoes, and gravy. We are, afterall, Minnesotan. ;)

Thus, the crockpot roast beef is rather convenient and delicious.  Simply through 3+ pounds of meat in a crockpot, let it cook for 8-10 hours on low, and enjoy the deliciousness that comes of it.  Here is a simple, yet tasty meal that you can prep with little effort.

For our 100th Recipe, we decided to hold a little competition to see who could come up with the best recipe. Thank you Holly B. for posting Butternut Squash Ravioli!

Once upon a time, I was walking through the grocery store's frozen foods section and happened across this delightful concept called the Sunday Brunch Pizza (or breakfast pizza). One of the breakfast pizzas looked particularly intriguing: apple streusel.

For the last four or so years, I have had the great pleasure of enjoying my mother-in-law's Thanksgiving dinner.  Every year, she seems to outdo herself with an evening tastier turkey, gravy, and stuffing than the year before.  After a couple of years of watching her, she showed me the secrets to her incredible recipes. 

It has been an inordinately long time since last I posted. My apologies!  My only excuse is that school has started and I have little free time to myself.  That being said, my goal will be to maintain postings at least once a week.  I feel that this is a reasonable amount and hopefully you all will keep me inspired to post delicious foods to share!

My husband is always mixing sauces together to create *new* sauces. After mixing some alfredo sauce with some spaghetti sauce, he declared it tasted like "vodka sauce, or whatever they call that." Inspired by his creation, I decided to use my homemade marinara sauce, mix it with a can of Alfredo, and add some grated cheese. Thus, the Pasta Bake was born!

It's that time of year: when all your tomatoes are turning red at once! As many sandwiches and salads as I eat, I can't begin to keep up with the number of tomatoes turning red. I surely do not want to waste them, so I must come up with a solution. A delicious solution for all my vine ripened tomatoes.  Thus, the homemade spaghetti sauce!

One of my favorite sandwiches of all time is the Chicken Cheesy Melt from a local restaurant. Bacon and chicken surrounded by cheese and sandwiched between two slices of Texas toast... what's not to love? The kicker: homemade ranch. It is to die for!

I had a craving for a cream pasta sauce, but wasn't feeling the Alfredo I normally whip up so I decided to search for something else.  When I came across the Basil Cream Sauce I knew that was going on my dinner!

I rummaged through my cupboards and was able to pull together all the ingredients I need to make this amazing sauce!  Let's get to it!

We were at a wedding recently that served this amazing stuffed chicken with mashed potatoes.  I loved it but had never made such a meal before.  How does one stuff a chicken breast, I wondered.  So I set out to find the answer.
