Ham and Broccoli Quiche

This is a quick and easy recipe, and it was from Pillsbury so they would like it if you bought one of their crusts BUT I think it tastes even better if you make your own.  You can make that choice, but I have to tell you, it’s good to know how to make your own crust.  I make 2 at a time, rolling them out, folding them into quarters (just like Pillsbury does) wrapping them and freezing them.  So when I need one, it’s already made which obviously cuts a huge chunk of time out of your dinner prep.  Anyway, I’ll leave it up to you.  If you need a crust recipe you can refer to most cookbooks, or your grandmother.  I just use one out of my old reliable Betty Crocker cookbook that was given to me at one of my wedding showers.  I will post it at the end for you in case you need one.  Be patient.  Learning to make crust can take a little practice, but it’s worth the trouble.

Mexican Macaroni

O.K.  I had to name this dish something, and that’s as creative as I get.  I have no idea what this is really called, so if you think of something better let me have it!!  Now, this is a quick dish I make on nights that I haven’t decided what’s for dinner until about 3:00.  I almost always have the ingredients on hand, except for the velveeta, but when I do, I almost always make this.

The V.I.P Crunch Salad

Many years ago, probably before any kids came along, we used to go to a local restaurant and order the most delicious salad.  It was just a good combination of ingredients, and easily duplicated.  Every once in a while I make it for my lunch, especially when I’m trying to get rid of the baby spinach.  We know how quickly that stuff hangs around (not very long).  Anyway, the salad went something like this; Read More »

Lobster salad tea sandwiches

You guys are going to love this recipe, because it’s super duper easy, and tastes super duper good.  It’s not real lobster, it’s that package of fake lobster, or crab.  It’s real fish, and has a small percentage of the meat of the lobster/crab, but does taste similar especially when you’re mixing it up with other good ingredients.  I wouldn’t go dipping this in butter while donning a huge bib.  It’s not THAT convincing, but it’s good, and provides an inexpensive way to have a lovely salad for a good friend.
