Crockpot Whole Roasted Chicken and Gravy

You may have noticed based on many of our blog posts that we love meats and gravy around here. Maybe it's a midwest thing, maybe it's a comfort food during the dead of winter thing, or maybe mom just didn't feed me enough of it growing up. Who knows? One thing is for sure, we are always looking for recipes in which we have an excuse to make gravy.

Smoked Gouda Mac with Broccoli, Bacon, and Tomatoes!

To honor our 50th "like" on Facebook, I decided to create a super special dinner recipe that I have been meaning to make for some time now. For years, my husband and I have been trying to figure out how restaurants acheive a creamy cheese sauce that isn't grainy. We experimented with flour vs. corn starch, high end cheeses vs. the cheap-o brands, and had little success creating the perfect texture.

Grilled Cheese, Tomato Soup, and Side Salad!

Sometimes the best meal is a simple homemade meal. My husband and I love grilled cheese sandwiches of all kinds. From gourmet to "slime cheese," we just can't get enough!

Leftover Fajitas? Make a Fajita Crunchwrap Supreme!

Have I mentioned enough times yet that my husband LOVES anything in a tortilla?  In particular, he is a huge fan of Taco Bell, including their Crunchwrap Supreme.  After spotting step-by-step instructions for how to make one at home, I decided to try it out with some leftover fajitas.  I daresay it was even better than Taco Bell's version!

Check it out.

Roast Beef, Mashed Potatoes, and Gravy

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.
