I tried homemade enchilada sauce for the first time this week. MMMM~ It is so good. It’s also quick and easy.
15 oz can tomato sauce
1 small can green chilies
1 Tb chili powder
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
2 fresh garlic cloves
Put it all in a blender and add water until it looks how you [...]
Barbara said I should share some of my healthy recipes so I will try to remember to do that once in awhile.
Some of them I’ve tweaked from other people but here goes.
I’ve been having this about every other day and it’s so good.
If you’re not working on losing weight, or if your plan allows you [...]
Who would think that I’d have cantaloupe memories or funnies, much less a tip! But I do.
James used to call cantaloupe “cantelopen “.
Every time we had cantaloupe when we were kids, my mom would say, “I can’t elope I’m already married.”
One time my Grandma made us cantaloupe pie. We couldn’t imagine how that would turn [...]
MMM! I picked up a Real Simple Magazine at the thrift store the other day. This recipe was in it and we had it for dinner on Sunday. It’s quite yummy
16 buttery crackers (such as Ritz), crushed (about 3⁄4 cup)
6 ounces sharp Cheddar, grated
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
salt and black pepper
4 6-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Heat oven to [...]
I mentioned these quite awhile ago in my Tellin’ the Truth post. I was proud of myself that I cut them and wrapped them and put them in the freezer to save for later.
Now, I’ll admit they sound crazy but they’re not bad. You can slightly tell the texture is a bit “fiber-y” but James [...]
James and I enjoy making smoothies. I found a recipe with this idea in a Weight Watchers cookbook.
We tweaked it a little. We never measure for smoothies–we just dump stuff in. So, that’s what our recipe will be–adjust to your liking.
1 c. lemonade
1 carton vanilla sugar free yogurt
1/2 can peaches (in juice)
1 c. frozen blueberries
Mix [...]
What’s your preference?
Vote and then leave a comment to let me know why.
Thanks!

A week or so ago, I threw together a new recipe that turned out really yummy.
I put chicken breasts in the crockpot to cook. When they were about an hour or so away from being done, I added the following:
*1 can cream of chicken soup and a can of milk
*1 can green chiles
*Crushed garlic cloves–2 [...]
I got this recipe a long while ago from Saralyn in a swap.
Today was the 1st time I made it and they’re a hit!
6 slices deli ham
1/2 c. chopped green onions
2 c. shredded cheddar
6 eggs
8 oz sour cream
2 Tb parsley
Place each ham slice in a greased muffin tin. Sprinkle with onions and 1 c. of [...]
The other day, I wanted to experiment to see if I could make Spanish Rice in the crockpot and it worked!
Here’s what I did for 4 servings. I think you can just double or triple it. It should work the same.
1 c. raw brown rice
3 c. mixed vegetable juice (like V-8)
1 c. water
3/4 lb hamburger, [...]
