Cheesy Cauliflower Bake
I mentioned yesterday that I had a life-changing side dish to share with you. Here it is. And I hope you make it. Before this dish, cauliflower didn’t rank very high on my veggie-loving list. {Update 03/14}: I updated pictures on this lovely little recipe as well as editing a few parts of the recipe (omitting garlic from the bread crumbs, offering panko as a worthy substitute to the homemade bread crumbs, and a few other details). Note: this recipe can easily be doubled and put in a 9X13-inch baking dish. Ingredients Directions Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

Freezer Meal: Creamy Chicken Enchiladas - HotCouponWorld.com
In my ongoing quest to cook and freeze more meals so that we are tempted to eat out less I came up with another recipe that is easy to prepare and used ingredients I had on hand in my stockpile. This one should definitely go in the “freezes beautifully” section of the cookbook. Printable Recipe Ingredients: 4 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded2 (8 oz.) packages cream cheese, softened16 oz. cheddar or jack cheese, shredded2 (4 oz.) cans Ortega diced chilis9 (10 oz.) cans green enchilada sauce32 fajita sized flour tortillas Directions: With a mixer, beat the cream cheese with the green chilis and 1 can of enchilada sauce. Pour cream sauce over shredded chicken in a bowl. And stir to combine. In the bottom of 4 foil baking pans (I purchase these at Dollar Tree 2 for $1.00) pour 1 can of green enchilada sauce and spread evenly to cover bottom of pan. Now take your tortillas and fill generously with the creamy chicken mixture and roll up. Sprinkle top of enchiladas with cheese.

Buffalo Chicken Bites
One of my favorite guilty pleasures is buffalo wings, especially dipped in blue cheese dressing. There's something about the buffalo chicken and blue cheese combo that really appeals to me and I had a craving for it lately. When I came across a recipe for ham and cheese stuffed pretzel bites, I figured I could substitute it with chicken and blue cheese. That's when I decided to make these Buffalo Chicken Bites... yum! These are such an awesome snack, which could be a meal in itself if you have enough of them. I plan on making these again and experimenting with other fillings such a steak, provolone, sauteed peppers and onions for Philly Cheesesteak Bites... or even pepperoni, italian sausage, mozzarella and mushrooms for Pizza Bites. Buffalo Chicken Bites 1 cup finely diced cooked chicken breast 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese 1/4 cup hot sauce (Frank's brand is what I used) 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled 2 1/2 cups of flour

Chicken Enchilada Casserole
This hot, cheesy, and hearty Chicken Enchilada Casserole is actually fairly light! Raise your hand if you’re getting just a teeny, tiny bit excited for Fall. **Looks left, looks right…slowly raises hand** Shhhh! I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’ve been loving down the season’s new BBQ recipes, fruity drinks, and outdoor adventures… but I’m kiiiiind of getting pumped for cozy bowls of Chili, Apple Crisp – make that Caramel Apple Crisp - Pasta Bakes, and oodles of Pumpkin Spice Whoopie Pies. (Oh, and FOOTBALL!!!) (Which means TAILGATING!!!) Plus, there’s this neighborhood tree that’s totally shoving it in my face. I swear, every summer before the other trees in the ‘hood have even fully finished sprouting their Spring leaves, this mo’s already turning yellow. It kind of makes me paranoid, and is a constant reminder of the looming season that shall not be named. But it also kind of gets me excited to make Fall’s finest food – make that food group. Tonight – Chicken Enchilada Casserole! Into the oven…
