What's Cookin' Wednesday, February 13th

Happy, happy hump day friends!  We've made it to the halfway point of the week!  On Saturday, I was reminded of a quick and tasty sheet pan meal that I had not made in quite some time.  What meal?  Chicken Fajitas!  Absolutely tasty and very easy to make!

 I had some chicken that I needed to use up.  I had planned on making 2 batches.  One to freeze for another meal and one to eat on Sunday.  I decided that since I didn't have any chicken thawed for our lunches this week that I would just make all of the chicken breasts I had left in the fridge from Costco.  I had used a package for Chicken Tikka Masala but had two more to use.  My sweet husband sliced onions for me and then diced some for our Meatloaf on Sunday.  I sliced up some bell pepper (green, red, yellow and orange) and then diced the rest for our meatloaf and a breakfast casserole.  Here's my basic recipe below:

 I used 5 chicken breasts, which I sliced into strips.   We used about half of a onion, sliced.  I cut up about a cup of bell pepper strips.  I seasoned it with Trader Joe's Chili Lime Seasoning.  I put all of this on a lined cookie sheet and put it in a 350 degree oven for about 25 minutes.  I did stir things around about half way through to make sure that everything got done.  It was served with some mini tortillas and some refried beans.  The leftovers were quite tasty as well!  I had it with a pita and some refried beans.  I hope if you try it, you enjoy it!

What's Cooking Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I hesitate to even call this a recipe.  I have been making this super easy, but versatile recipe for years.  My ex-grandmother-in-law made hers spicier, but for my young one (at the time I started making this) wasn't a fan of spicy foods.  So I created a cheeseburger variety of the meat pie.  It's simply Grands biscuits, hamburger meat and cheese.  I believe she used the standard biscuit, but I have been using Grands for years.  You can absolutely change this up to use different ingredients, but it's a family favorite so I haven't changed it much.  I may do a different variety soon to bring to you!   You can watch the video here:  YouTube

Savings Saturday, May 3rd

 As we are trying to drill down on our budget and add to our savings, I decided to have a little fun with it.  We headed to Barnes & Noble and purchased 2 Word Find books, one is 365 Days of Puzzles and the other is a book of Bible Puzzles.  The 365 Puzzle book is pretty interesting in that it varies in topic.  My puzzles for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week were:  Monday: Disco [Puzzle 50], I found 10 words in 6 minutes. Tuesday: Quantum Mechanics [Puzzle 192], 5 words in 4 minutes. Wednesday: Languages of Africa [Puzzle 299], 6 words in 4 minutes. So my total to go into savings for the first week: $21.00 Savings Total for this challenge: $21.00. I have decided to only do a puzzle on the weekdays, but not the weekends for this challenge.  Why?  Being honest, there are some days/some weeks, like end of the month that get a bit overwhelming.  Only doing a puzzle 5 days per week, gives me an opportunity to do one on the weekend if the ...
