Paula Deen Crockpot Macaroni and Cheese

This is my favorite view. So in honor of a long holiday weekend this is  what I am posting lol! So  after a day of baseball I came home and was trying to decide on an easy recipe you guys could take to your friends house . Now I like easy but when I'm taking it to a friends cookout I also like to help her out by keeping it warm  so I put it in my best friend the crockpot. This recipe is a Paula Deen recipe  so you know it's good but it's also easy!   And if you manage to have any leftovers ( doubtful) then it reheats great the next day.

2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
4 T butter
2 1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
3 eggs
1/2 c sour cream
1 can of condensed cheddar cheese soup
1/2  teaspoon salt
1 c whole milk
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1. Boil macaroni. Drain.
2. In a medium saucepan , mix butter and cheese. Stir until cheese melts.
3. In slow cooker, combine cheese mixture and add the eggs , sour cream, soup, salt, milk, mustard and pepper. Add drained macaroni and stir again.
4. Cook on low 2 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.

Easy Chocolate Eclair Cake

I have so much excitement going on right now. I have been introduced to THE best mascara in the history of mascara so I am now selling it along with other water proof, all natural products. (concealers, eye pigments, lip glosses) So I've been so busy with that I've been neglecting to make any deserts for my sweet family so here is one of their favs for you to try.

1 box of graham crackers
1 large box of instant vanilla pudding
1 8 oz container Cool Whip
1 container of instant chocolate frosting.

Mix pudding according to directions. Combine with cool whip. Put 1 layer of graham crackers and then half of pudding mix. Then put one more layer of graham crackers  and remainder of pudding.  Then one final layer of graham crackers. Open the container of instant frosting and melt in the microwave for 1 minute. Pour over desert and refrigerate.  It's so easy and it makes a lot in a casserole dish to take with you to sports parties, family gatherings, and school functions.

Best Crockpot Roast

Easy Delicious Potroast

A friend I worked with years ago gave me this recipe. It sounded so easy and I was a new cook so I made it. Years later, I've never found a pot roast recipe better.

1 packet of onion soup mix
2 cans of Golden Mushroom soup
1 can of water
3 lb sirloin tip roast

Mix ingredients and pour on top of roast. Cook in crockpot all day 10-12 hours. Gravy is best served with roast and mashed potatoes. Enjoy! Leftovers are great next day alone or on toast.

Super Easy Lunch and Dinner today

When you are a mom and when you have kids that play sports or have after school activities it sometimes feels like you are just trying to get thru the day and if you can get a meal in your kids belly before bedtime then we survived. My blog is about sharing easy ideas of how to get thru the days with easy tips and meals that still have you looking like a Goddess to your family.
None of these ideas will break the bank, break your back , or make you break a sweat.

Easylunchboxes.com is a site I discovered last year that sells compartment sized containers that remind me of Lunchables only bigger. I bought my boys the lunch boxes and containers last year and they loved having the different compartments for different foods. It made lunch more interesting for them and honestly it helped me to just put different healthy items in each compartment. ( although I have been known to sneak some chips or cookies in their occasionally). This year my kids have different lunch boxes but still use the same Tupperware containers from last year. I love I can put them in the dushwasher, I don't have to buy baggies, and when my kids beg for Lunchables I tell them I can make them their own Lunchables now.  And since the containers stack nicely on top of each other in the fridge, I can make them ahead of time so I am not running around crazy in the morning. This morning my kids were ready to go with a turkey sandwich, sunflower seeds, and fruit. One less thing to worry about today. So now I am off to put my meatballs in the crockpot for dinner.

Honey Garlic Crockpot Meatballs

1/4 c brown sugar
1/3 c honey
1/2 c ketchup
2 T soy sauce
3 cloves, garlic minced
1 28 oz bag of frozen fully cooked meatballs

Mix all ingredients except for meatballs in a bowl. Put meatballs in crockpot and pour sauce over them. Make sure meatballs are all evenly coated. Cook on low four hours. Serve as appetizer or as a meal with something on the side.
