Cooking From Your Pantry | Menu Plan Ideas, Freezer Meals and Simple Recipes Week 31 of 52

If you are headed to a potluck and need a new idea, the creamed peas and potatoes dish is a crowd please ALL DAY LONG. That is if you can stop eating it long enough to put it in a serving dish. 😉

3 Breakfast Ideas

Almond Joy Granola Recipe – Sprinkle this stuff over some yogurt and you’ve got the breakfast of champions–or at least the breakfast of someone with a big fat smile on their face.  {Pin it for Later}

Quinoa with Raspberries and Oranges – Quinoa is the most versatile food ever–you could serve this for breakfast, lunch or dinner, in my opinion.  {Pin it for Later}

Spinach, Strawberry and Blueberry Smoothie – The Girl is still making us smoothies for breakfast pretty regularly.  I am really going to miss them when she heads back to school.  {Pin it for Later}

4 Lunch Ideas and Dinner Ideas

Kid Approved Crunchy Fish Sticks – These are a great way to get kids to eat fish.  {Adults too ;)}. {Pin it for Later}

Cheesy Beef Tortilla Casserole – I love this casserole because it tastes even better the second day as leftovers.  {Pin it for Later}
Homemade Enchilada Sauce – After making my own enchilada sauce, it’s incredibly difficult to use the canned stuff.  I like to freeze a big batch of this to use whenever I need it.  {Pin it for Later}

Creamed Peas and Potatoes – I don’t know why I don’t make this more often.  It is a favorite that I forget to put into regular rotation.  {Pin it for Later}

3 Sweet Treats 

Fresh Raspberry Pie – I have never met a pie I don’t like, but raspberry has to be a favorite.  {Pin it for Later}

Homemade Peach Fruit Leather – Fruit leathers are an inexpensive snack that really don’t take that much time to whip up.  They are a great way to use up fruit that is getting too ripe to eat plain too.  {Pin it for Later}

Mint Chocolate Delights – Okay, usually I make these around Christmas time, but I recently discovered that they make amazing ice cream cookie sandwiches.  Do yourself a favor, and make them.  Now.  {Pin it for Later}

Featured Freezer Meal Recipe

Chicken Broccoli Alfredo – This is literally one of the easiest freezer meals in my repertoire.  It only has four ingredients and will take you all of about 5 minutes to throw together.  {Pin it for Later}

Featured Canning Recipe 

Fast and Easy Peach Freezer Jam – Peaches are hitting the stores, so it’s a good time to make up a couple of batches of peach freezer jam.  {Pin it for Later}
