Crockpot Corned Beef and Cabbage

I looved this recipe. The only thing I did not follow is sugar and vinegar and added the cabbage about 15-25 minutes before I served so the cabbage was not soggy. Here is the link.

Teriyaki Meatballs

I was browsing through Albertsons thinking like always, what's for dinner. I looked at the deli to get ideas and saw a sign and a plate that said Teriyaki Meatballs. I picked up a bottle of teriyaki sauce and could not wait to get home to google the recipe. I came across this
It was made with turkey but I used beef. I had no carrots or green onions as we have not done our major shopping yet. My kids loved it. Very kid friendly recipe. Other than not adding carrots and green onion I followed it exactly. I served a plate of steamed rice, layer of steamed or sauteed cabbage and topped it off with the meatballs.

Stroganoff with Egg Noodles

If you really like stroganoff, this is a recipe to make. It was delicious. It is too much of a fattening dish for me so I make this only once in awhile. I did not change it one bit. I followed directions exactly.

Hamburger Noodle Bake

Ohh this dish was sooo good. I used half of sour cream and half of cream cheese as well. I also used fresh baby spinach and layered in ontop of the cheese layer. Easy, fast and yummy. The kids clear the plate when I make this.

Creamy Burrito Casserole

I would add olives. I am making it again this week and will add black olives. I also added picante sauce with the ground beef and refried beans.

Spaghetti and Meatballs

This is a link for the best meatballs. I alter it a bit. I only follow her recipe for meatballs and use Rinaldis Sweet an Tasty Sauce. ( You can use your favorite spaghetti sauce). I also make small meatballs so it's not so big for the kids to eat. I have not tried baking ro frying, but I prefer to cook them in the sauce. They are truly melt in your mouth meatballs. A big hit in our house.
