Comfort Food!

Grab 3 simple ingredients and in less than 1 hour you have a wonderful Fall dinner!
1 package of Stove Top Stuffing, I prefer the chicken flavor, 1 can Apple pie filling,
(is that a tootsie roll bag in the back? busted!)

 And pork chops!
Spread the pie filling in the bottom of a 13x9 pan. 
 Top with pork chops.
 Prepare stuffing (just mix with water & butter) and spread on top of chops.

 Cover with foil, bake @375* for 30 mins.Uncover and bake 10 more minutes.

The flavor of sweet apples complements the tangy & salty stuffing perfectly. 
This is a family favorite, even my 9 year old likes it!

My Secret Weapon!

Mmmmm!
 Butterscotch Fudge. 
That's all I need to make my husband and sons, 2 brother in-laws and nephews melt like butterin a  hot frying pan.
 Need the trash taken out? The dogs fed?
Carry in the groceries?
 Works like a charm.
Butterscotch Fudge
7oz. marshmallow cream
1-1/2 C. sugar
2/3 C. evaporated milk
1/4 C. butter
1/4 tsp. salt
2 C. butterscotch chips (12 oz)
2 tsp. vanilla
1Tbsp. grated orange peel
1C. walnuts if desired

Mix first 5 ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat. Stir constantly for 4-5 minutes. Candy should reach the "softball" stage. The ingredients will double in size while boiling and shrink back down when removed from heat.
Remove from heat and stir in chips, vanilla and grated orange peel. Pour into 8x8 prepared pan. Top with nuts if desired, gently pressing into fudge. Allow to cool completely before relishing every last bite.

ENJOY!

Got Ham?


If the "Reheat Queen" can do it, you can do it!
Hello my blogland friends! Thank you for all your get well wishes. I really appreciate every single comment and email that you sent. Boy it feels like I have been gone forever and I missed seeing all of your beautiful holiday posts. Well, I hope you had a wonderful Easter and here is a great recipe to use up your left over ham. So get your leftovers out of the freezer and whip this up for brunch or dinner.

Brunch Casserole 

4 slices bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
4 C. diced ham
4 oz. shredded cheddar cheese
3 green onions, sliced
12 eggs
1 C. sour cream
1C. milk
1. Heat oven to 350* Spray bottom of 13x9 pan with nonstick spray. Layer bread, ham and cheese across bottom of pan.
2. Beat eggs, sour cream and milk untill smooth. Pour over ham mixture. Bake for 35-45 minute or untill a knife inserted comes out clean (my oven needed the whole 45) Let set 10 minutes before serving.

We didn't finish it all so I reheated it the next day and it was great the second time around. I was surprised because reheated eggs just don't sound right. It was a hit!
