Corn Bread
This is a corn bread recipe I found on allrecipes.com. It is awesome and so easy to make. Tiffany
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups biscuit/baking mix
1 cup sugar
2/3 cup cornmeal
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (I didn't put this in)
2 eggs
1 1/4 cups milk
1 1/4 cups butter, melted
DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In another bowl, beat the eggs, milk and butter; stir into the dry ingredients just until moistened. Pour into a greased 9-in. square baking pan (you may want to use a 13X9 pan, when I made it the batter spilled over the edges in the 9in square baking pan).
Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes before cutting. Serve warm.

As you can see in the picture, I put chili and shredded cheese over the top. :)

BBQ Beef
I got this recipe from my Grandma Challis. She would always make it for Sunday dinner. It's yummy to serve with rolls and vegetables, or on a lightly toasted bun. It's also very easy to make. -Jess
Pull your Crock-pot out early in the morning because this needs to bake on low for 8-10 hours. It's better the longer you cook it.
In your Crock-pot put in:
3 lbs rump roast
1 1/2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 T Dijon-style mustard
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 T worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder.
Stir the ingredients and make sure some goes beneath the roast.
Cover and cook. later, shred with your fork. Enjoy!

White Cheese Chicken Lasagna
I got this recipe on allrecipes.com and it was SOOOOOO good!!!! It made a lot of lasagna (two 9x9 pans, i froze one) and the only things i changed were I used no-bake lasagna noodles and i used about 5x as much parsely it said... i mixed about 1/2 cup in the ricotta and sprinkled at least a cup on top before baking. I also used a lot less spinach than it said... we're not huge on spinach, i used probably 1/2 or 3/4 cup drained spinach and it was just right. We LOVED this meal!!! It was one where my tongue wants more but i was already so full... i just wanted to keep on tasting it! The broccoli salad was a $5 mix from Costco and was SO easy and delicious!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, and rinse with cold water.

Spread 1/3 of the sauce mixture in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer with 1/3 of the noodles, the ricotta, and the chicken.

Shepard's Pie--sort of
This recipe is a variation from the well known Shepard's Pie. It made a ton though so I will tell you what I put in and then you can cut it in half or do whatever. (I froze half)
In a large bowl mix:
1lb. ground beef (seasoned with onion and garlic salt, and salt and pepper)
1 can cream of chicken (or mushroom)
1 cup cheese
1 pkg. dry onion soup
cooked broccoli (instead of beans, I used to stalks, you could also use frozen)
1 can chili beans (chili just without the ground beef)
Pour that mixture in a 13 x 9 greased dish
Make some mashed potatoes and mix about a cup of cheese in with them. Spread the potatoes on top of the meat mixture. Bake 30 min. at 350. Sprinkle chees on top and let melt.
Since we want these meals rated, I will start with my rating.
On a scale of 1-5 it was a 3, It wasn't the best thing I had ever tasted, but satisfying.
