I tried this one and it turned out well but the cook time is off.  I baked it for 20 minutes as stated but the potatoes were still crunchy so I popped in the microwave for 10 minutes and that seem to do the trick.  I did not use butter for the flour mixture I used olive oil and I did not put the extra pat of butter on top, nor did I use the onion and everything seemed to work out well.  I used cheddar cheese.

1 lb. shrimp

3 tbsp garlic butter

1/2 cup milk

24 ounces mashed potatoes (I like to make my own so I use about 4-6 potatoes, cut up and boil)

1 can condensed cream of shrimp soup

1/4 cup cream sherry

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

2 teaspoons flour

1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning

1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese

In a large saucepan on medium high heat place garlic butter.  Stir in mustard, flour, and seasoning.  Cook about 1-2 minutes stirring well.  Stir in, shrimp, sherry, soup, and milk.  DO NOT ADD THE MILK FIRST OR IT WILL BE A MESS.  YOU NEED THE OTHER INGREDIANTS TO COOL DOWN THE POT FIRST.  Cook for about 8-10 minutes until the shrimp is cooked.  Serve over your potatoes and you will feel like you are at a restaurant.

4 cups mango nectar, chilled

1/3 cup fresh lemon juice, plus lemon slices for garnish

Ice

Just before serving, mix together the ginger ale, mango nectar and lemon juice in a large pitcher.  Pour into tall glassess filled wth ice and garnish with lemon slices.

I cut this out of a magazine a long time ago, but if it is yours please let me know and I will give credit.

Cook time: 1 hour (you are really not cooking more like turning)

1/3 oil X 2

1 packet Ranch mix X 2

2 tbsp crushed pepper ( I always leave this out)

1 box crackers

You will double the oil and ranch because you will use it twice.

Mix 1/3 oil, 1 package of ranch mix and pepper is you choose. Place crackers in a container that will hold all of the crackers and give room for them to move around. Pour oil mixture over crackers and stir with hands. Add second mixture and place lid on top. You will then turn the container over every 15 minutes for one hour. Set the timer on your stove and you will not forget out them.

I have made these several times and they are a big hit with potlucks at work.

Roland Campos personal collection

tortillas

cheese slices

lettuce

shredded or deli-sliced chicken (you could even use the pieces of chicken at are already cooked and seasoned in the meat department)

Thousand Island Dressing (on the side)

Lay out a piece of saran wrap and place the tortillas on top. Build you wrap the way you want it and then fold in sides and roll. Wrap saran wrap around the wrap and throw in the lunch bag.

Skewers (size depend on you)

olives

cherry tomatoes

1-inch pieces of string cheese

Slice cheese into cubes and stick on skewer followed by olive and tomato. Continue until skewer is full. Place in reusable container and pop in lunch box.

Cook time: 20 minutes

1 pound ground beef

1 Onion (or to your taste, I used 1/2)

1 green or red bell pepper (we do not like bell pepper so I left this out)

1 can chopped or stewed tomatoes

1 can kidney beans (I used a can of mixed chili beans)

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1/2 to 1 T. chili powder (I used 2 tablespoons)

I also added about a teaspoon of sugar to cut the tomato taste because some in our family do not like tomatoes)

Brown the ground beef. I added the onions once all the beef was brown to cut down on the amount of bowls used. Add stewed tomatoes, beans, salt, pepper and chili powder. Adjust seasoning to your taste and let simmer for about 20 minutes.

This is the easiest chili recipe and it taste like it took you all day. Serve in bowls with cheese on top and crackers on the side.
