📅 Food Holidays

We celebrate a couple of fun food holidays this week. They're silly little holidays but it gives us an opportunity to make some memories and have some fun!

  • January 29 - National Corn Chip Day is the perfect time to enjoy this Frito Chicken Casserole.
  • January 30 - How about learning to make my simplified croissants for National Croissant Day ?
  • January 31 - Make some hot cocoa bombs with the kids for National Hot Chocolate Day.
  • February 2 is National Tater Tot Day. Try your hand at making Tater Tots from scratch and then give this easy casserole a try.

💭 Things to know

These tips will help you save time and money this week:

  • Chop all the onions for ALL your recipes at once. It's easiest in the food processor. Keep the chopped onions in a storage container in the fridge and measure out what you need for each recipe. Do the same with other vegetables.
  • Use leftover carrots in the Cajun pot roast.
  • Even easier? Buy the frozen chopped onions, frozen chopped peppers, or seasoning blend at the grocery store.
  • If a recipe calls for chicken breast and pork loin happens to be on sale you can usually substitute it.
  • Make a couple of batches of these garlic breadsticks. They go with so many recipes!

🍹This week's cocktail

This grapefruit vodka cocktail is similar to a Moscow Mule. Made with Deep Eddy Ruby Red. One of my favorites!

Ruby Slipper

If you haven't tried this easy vodka and ruby red grapefruit juice cocktail yet you're missing out!

January 29

A forkful of chicken casserole.

Poppyseed Chicken

This easy poppyseed chicken casserole is super creamy with fall apart tender chicken in a cheesy sauce and buttery Ritz crackers baked on top. Takes just 30 minutes. Serve a salad or some steamed asparagus as a side dish.

Close up of finished carrots.

Sweet and Spicy Roast Carrots

No one turns down these delicious maple chipotle roast carrots!

Side view of the monkey bread.

Stuffed Monkey Bread

Chocolate & cream cheese stuffed monkey bread with pecans and a buttery praline sauce? Yep! It works as a dessert or as a weekend brunch recipe! Either way - YUM!

January 30

Close up of Cajun Pot Roast in the slow cooker.

Cajun Pot Roast

This slow cooker cajun pot roast is pretty much a one pot meal. It's got a little spicy kick to it but it's not too spicy for the kids. Might want to add a salad to the table for crunch. Save some roast for later in the week.

Closeup of finished dish.

Noodles Romanoff

If you grew up in the 60's you for sure remember Noodles Romanoff, a cheesy side dish that's as easy as can be. It's a great fit with the pot roast, too!

Close up of cut cake showing the layers of cake and frosting.

Red Velvet Cake

This gorgeous red velvet cake is too yummy to wait for Valentine's Day to make it!

January 31

Meatloaf Stuffed Peppers

These stuffed peppers look complicated but it's not! Meatloaf mixture is stuffed in bell pepper halves then wrapped in bacon and baked. AMAZING!

Spoonful of creamed spinach.

Creamed Spinach

If you love Boston Market creamed spinach you'll be all over this extra rich creamed spinach recipe! Best of all? Just 3 net carbs!

gooey butter bars feat optimized

Gooey Butter Bars

The first time I added chocolate chips to my gooey butter bar recipe was an accident but let me tell you - it's the only way I make them now!

February 1

Closeup of beef taco skillet dinner

Beef Taco Skillet

Remember the beef from the 30th that I said to save? Well use it instead of ground beef in this easy taco skillet to make it quicker and easier! Started with cooked beef cuts the time and leftovers make it budget friendly!

Green Bean Salad

This tangy green bean salad adds flavor and crunch to the table.

A square of lemon cheesecake on a flowered plate with a lemon slice on top.

Woolworth's Cheesecake

Creamy, no bake lemon cheesecake like the one served at Woolworth's lunch counter. It's so easy to make and it tastes even better than you remember. (and if you've never had it you've got to try it.)

February 2

Closeup of the cooked chicken showing caramelization.

Garlic Chicken

Brown sugar and Garlic Chicken is a 30 minute dinner the family will ask for again and again! You can make it in the oven (best) or in the slow cooker.

Creamed Corn

Creamed corn is one of my favorites - and if you've never had it homemade you'll definitely want to give it a try.

A lemon bundt cake on a flowered cake plate.

Lemon Bundt Cake

Finish the meal with this moist and tangy lemon bundt cake. I make it with Meyer lemons when I can find them but any lemons will do.

February 3

A spoonful of sausage Alfredo with strings of cheese hanging off.

Smoked Sausage Alfredo Skillet

Hearty Smoked Sausage Alfredo Skillet is an easy 15 minute dinner - you'll love it... and so will the family. Cheesy goodness in every bite.

smoky cheese bacon fougasse

Fougasse

This cheese & bacon fougasse is similar to a focaccia. It's easy to make and the smoky, chewy bread is delish with the ravioli!

stack of m & m cookies on a plate

m&m's Cookies

Old fashioned m&m's cookies are such a treat!

February 4

Overhead view of the finished meat in a slow cooker.

Dr Pepper Ribs

Tender, country style ribs are simmered in the slow cooker until they're ready to fall apart.

These easy cheese dinner rolls are an old family recipe. Once you bite into one you'll know why they've been popular through the generations! From RestlessChipotle.com

Cheddar & Pepper Rolls

Fluffy dinner rolls made with Cheddar cheese and cracked pepper are just right with this soup!

smores pie

No Bake S'mores Pie

If you love s'mores you'll love this easy no bake pie! I brown the top with a plumber's torch but you can put it under the broiler for a minute if you prefer.
