My friend DeeAnn does these every month, and since I think that everything she does is pretty darn amazing and I want to follow her amazing example. I decided that I would like to start doing these things too! I think it’s a great idea to remember what I was doing at those times, and for ya’ll to get to know me better!

Okay, I've got to have your recipes – your meals sound way to yummy! =D
Jen, I'm so not the betty crocker so me meals are SUPER easy, and usually not from scratch.
Chicken Fettucini: get a box of pasta roni chicken fettucini and cook it up, grill up some chicken and cut it in chunks and add it to the fettucini along with shredded mozzarella cheese and parmesean cheese (by cutting the chicken up in chunks I can use less making the meat spread further!) Spaghetti with homemade garlic bread: I cook up some spaghetti, use a can of hunts traditional pasta sauce and add low fat ground beef. Then I just take some bread and spread on some garlic butter and bake it in the oven or on the skillet.
Pita Pizzas are my favorite, take a can of hunts traditional spaghetti sauce, put a spoonful (amount to taste) on a whole wheat pita, add italian cheese blend of shredded cheeses, then add pepperoni (I'm sure you can use whatever toppings you want!) I toss them in the oven on a cookie sheet at 375 until the cheese melts.
BBQ Chicken and Baked Potatoes: I grill up some chicken then add the BBQ sauce, toss a couple potatoes in this awesome perfect potato pouch and put them in the microwave and that's it!
Chicken n' Rice with Mushroom Sauce: grill up some chicken (I lightly season mine with salt and pepper) in a sauce pan, cook up some rice in a rice cooker or pot, after the chicken is cooked, add a can of cream of mushroom soup, and approx half a can of milk to the pan the chicken is in while still on the heat and mix together until it's all heated and the soup is no longer clumpy. Put the rice on a plate and the chicken and mushroom soup mix over it.
French Toast is the same basic french toast mose people make I think.
Baked Potatoes with Chili: we just open a can of chili and put it over a baked potato with sour cream and cheese. Easy Peasy!
Easy works best for me too – who has time to be Betty Crocker these days! LOL Some of those meals sound like something the kids can help make. Thanks for sharing! =D
