My Mission Yo

I had a mission, once upon a time...It was to attempt all of Pioneer Woman's recipes. I can't. I don't know how she cooks so much. She may be Superwoman?

Whatever I do cook and share with you all that is an original Pioneer Woman recipe I will rate on a scale of 1-5 for "tastiness" and 1-5 for difficulty.

Taste:1-Being "Yuck" & 5- Being "oh my I think I'm in Heaven this is so good"

Difficulty: 1-Being "Luke could cook this." & 5-Being "Uh, may swear off cooking altogether because this was so hard."

Anything else that I cook and share, I will just give a basic review for. I have two small children who I am with ALL DAY LONG, so my reviews are realistic and useful.

Pinterest- Part 2

It is very, very good.  I didn't cook it in a bundt pan and everything turned out fine in the trusty 9x13.




The rest are all new things I've found and made.

This is super easy to make and I love the crust that the ritz crackers make.  I used to make something similar with pork chops, Parmesan cheese, and bread crumbs and I would pan fry it.  That is so good.  This is was just a slightly different, more country take on that.  The kids loved it!  I didn't do the sauce topping.  I'm sure it's great, but I'm not very big on cream of anything from a can.


I found this and quickly agreed with the author of the recipe.  Yes, I thought, she had kinda gone overboard.  UNTIL I tasted it. I used Tabasco sauce when it called for hot sauce in the recipe.  I also halved this recipe and had plenty of leftovers.  It's not too hot for the kiddos either.  Only thing I would have done is added twice as much chicken and this would have been the only thing I had to cook.  Lance has requested this at Thanksgiving.  I am not even joking when I tell you this is one of the most fattening, but BEST things I've eaten in a while.  Doesn't it always work that way?



I made these the other night with a pork loin and some roasted red potatoes.  They remind me of Spinach Balls my mom used to make.  They were super easy too.  I got a bag of broccoli that was ready to steam in the microwave and just added them to the other ingredients.  Don't forget to spray your pan with a nonstick spray because they will be hard to turn.



Oh my Lord have mercy these were good.  Very simple, and very good.  Just to make things easier on myself I just warmed taco sized flour tortillas for us to make our own tacos.  



Uhhh, Yes Please!!!  This dessert was beyond simple and looked so pretty.  You really need to make it today.  The kids loved it so much that I walked into my room looking for them one day and found them sitting on the floor eating it with their hands.  



Anne claims that this rivals the Pioneer Woman's Short Ribs that I make a lot, but I thought they were on a completely different playing field.  These were very good, better than any other stuffed chicken I've made.  If you are thinking of a different chicken meal, especially a different stuffed chicken meal, try these.



Although I didn't find this one on Pinterest I still wanted to share.

I was looking for a muffin recipe and ended up making these in no time.  So good and so easy.  I ate three of them.  I'd felt badly about that, but I was sore from working out.  I'd like to think my working out canceled the calories from the muffins.
This is a MAKE AHEAD, I repeat MAKE AHEAD meal.  Do not wake up one morning and think you will have this meal an hour or two later.  Not gonna happen.  Once I finally got this out of the oven, 24 hours after I started it, it was AMAZING.  You must top it with syrup!  It takes like bread pudding and french toast in one!

These were not very good.  I've seen a lot of people "pin" them and I wouldn't waste your time!
