Under the Weather Easy Chicken and Noodles
With commercial broth and some already cooked chicken you stored in the freezer, this comforting chicken and noodle dish comes together in no time.
Easy Chicken and Noodles
You ever go to bed feeling perfectly fine, then wake up feeling rougher than ten miles of bad road?
Well, when we have a change in the weather, that's pretty much a given with me. As I've gotten a little bit older, my body and my bones certainly feel these weather changes more. I try to remember to bump up my immune system in advance with supplements and some Airborne (affil link - love, love that stuff) when I know it's coming, but sometimes I just don't remember in time.

Scalloped Tomatoes - Old Fashioned Breaded (Stewed) Tomatoes
Old fashioned breaded fresh tomatoes, known also as scalloped tomatoes or tomato pudding, stewed down with a little onion, thickened with flour, lightly sweetened and tossed with toasted squares of bread, topped with cheese and baked. Great served with fried fish and mashed potatoes.
Old Fashioned Breaded Tomatoes
Sadly, it's the time of year where we begin to lament the passing of summer tomatoes, because even if you have a few still producing plants in your garden, they will all soon be gone. I'm starting to see less roadside stands and more hot-house tomatoes showing up in the store too, so that's a sure sign.
Winter tomatoes are just not the same, sigh, but.. I'm gonna try to squeeze in a few more recipes while I can.

Crockpot Chicken Sauce Piquant
![]() |
A breaded and browned whole cut up chicken is slow cooked in a spicy sauce piquant. |
Crockpot Chicken Sauce Piquant
Like Shrimp Sauce Piquant, this dish is intended to be a bit spicy, and rightly so! Although a bit different than the stovetop prep, taking inexpensive chicken, a spicy piquant sauce, and a crockpot is a good combination if you ask me. Hands down a winner and I think you will love it too!

Barbecue Round Steak
Bottom round steak, slow braised with The Trinity and an easy homemade barbecue sauce.
Barbecue Round Steak
One of my favorite inexpensive cuts of beef has always been braising steaks, and of those I love cooking a good bottom round steak. It's a tough cut of meat, but give it a braise in some liquid, low and slow, and it transforms into a wonderfully tender piece of delicious beef.Here I've slow braised it with onion, bell pepper and celery, and an easy homemade barbecue sauce - just another tasty way to prepare round steak and one that The Cajun loves.

Elvis Pie
Peanut butter paired with chocolate and bananas makes a great pie for any day. Inspired by The Fat Elvis Pie at Hoosier Mama Pie Company - don't forget the milk!
Elvis Pie
Y'all, this pie is so easy to throw together that you could whip it up in the evening before bed and have a company-worthy dessert the next day. Here's how to make it.Monday, October 3, 2011
Smothered Stewed Potatoes
Sliced potatoes are tossed with onion in seasoned flour, then fried in a bit of hot oil, covered and smothered with milk for a slow simmer. Simple, delicious comfort food.
Smothered Stewed Potatoes
This is one of my favorite potato side dishes, though I've also been known to make a pot just because I wanted some too!
It's very simple, classic country cooking - nothing particularly extraordinary about it or anything, but potatoes prepared this way are just so delicious and comforting. Simply sliced thin, then tossed with a tiny mixture of flour, salt and pepper, first cooked in a bit of hot oil and then covered in milk to low simmer until smothered down and tender.
They are as at home as a side dish with that nice Sunday pot roast, as they are with your everyday chicken, or if you're like me, as a meal all on their own.
