Cheddar Broccoli Soup, Bread, and Salad
Well, we just got back from vacation. And I had just gone grocery shopping, and because we've been busy busy busy, I wanted something easy. This was DELICIOUS!! Maybe it's just because I've been eating out and snacking for the last week, but I loved this and could probably make it way more regularly. My husband isn't really a soup guy, but said he might be able to do this one once a month or so, so I think it was a hit! (Courtesty of Allrecipes: Broccoli and Cheddar Soup)
1/4 cup butter
1 onion, cut into medium dice
minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 pound chopped broccoli (frozen or fresh, I used a little of both)
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups beef broth
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole or 2% milk
salt to taste
8 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
Melt butter over medium heat in a stockpot. Cook onion in butter until softened. Add garlic and pepper; cook for 1 minute then stir in broccoli, and stir in broth. Bring to a boil and simmer until broccoli is tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
Meanwhile whisk flour into milk until dissolved. Stir into soup stirring frequently until thickened. Reduce heat, and stir in cheese until melted and heated through.
Season with salt to taste.
I served this with a loaf of french bread and a large salad.

French Toast and breakfast for dinner
We love breakfast for dinner at our house. It's generally fast and easy. Paired with fruit and eggs, or even potatoes, it's perfect (and you can add that really unhealthy side meat, mmm my favorite)...
1/4 c. Flour
1 c. Milk
1 pinch Salt
3 Eggs
1/2 t. Ground cinnamon
1 t. Vanilla
1 T Sugar
12 slices bread
Whisk together flour and milk. Add salt, eggs, cinnamon, vanilla and sugar.
Heat your pan. Soak both sides of bread and cook until golden.

Chicken Nuggets, Tots, Fruit
Chicken strips
ranch dressing
Bread Crumbs (with Seasonings of choice)
I use the ranch as the glue for this recipe. Dip the chicken in the ranch and then coat with seasoned bread crumbs. I usually bake it at whatever temperature anything else needs baked (like the tots or fries or whatever). If it's the only thing I'm baking, I bake it at 375 for about 20 minutes or so. Usually I just take the biggest strip and cut into it to see if it's done.
