I know it can be trying enough sometimes to feed the gremlins good snacks during summer when they are off for a few months so hopefully this will give you ideas to help with the next month or so of no school.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
These snacks can be prepared in advance and and in batches to get you through the weeks ahead with a few simple steps.</div>

I have a serious love of Peanut Butter and Jelly everything.<br />
<br />
I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2012/12/peanut-butter-and-jelly-thumbprint.html">Peanut Butter and Jelly Thumbprint Cookies</a>, and now these delicious Peanut Butter and Jelly Bars.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>I've made these several times and they are easy and delicious. Make some today and you're family and friends will thank you!<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
Peanut Butter Base / Topping<br />
<br />
1/2 cup butter, at room temperature<br />
1/2 cup Crisco, butter flavored<br />
1 cup creamy peanut butter<br />
1 cup brown sugar<br />
1 cup sugar<br />
2 eggs, at room temperature<br />
2-1/2 cup flour<br />
1 tsp. baking soda<br />
<br />
Filling<br />
1 12 - 16 oz jar of your favorite jam, I use my <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2012/10/michelles-homemade-strawberry-jam.html">Homemade Strawberry Jam</a> or my other favorite, raspberry (seedless of course)<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray.<br />

Every once in a while I decide to do a recipe re-do. I have revamped this recipe for Broccoli Cheddar Soup with a few new ingredients and a couple of new pictures.<br />
<br />
A couple of days ago it finally started getting cooler here in Northern California and I for one am super happy about that because that means soup for me.<br />
<br />
Last night I made this for dinner using my original <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2012/02/broccoli-cheddar-soup.html">Broccoli Cheddar Soup</a> and making a few changes to it make it even more delicious.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
So whichever recipe you decide to try they are both yummy and easy to make.<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
2 celery stalks, chopped<br />
2 carrots, peeled and diced<br />
1 large yellow onion, diced<br />
1 large crown of broccoli, chopped into small pieces<br />
6 Tbs. butter, at room temperature<br />
1/4 cup flour<br />
32 oz. box of chicken stock or broth<br />
2 cups milk, 2%, heated<br />
1 cup heavy whipping cream, heated<br />
2 tsp. chicken bouillon<br />
2 tsp. salt<br />
several grinds of the pepper mill<br />
pinch of nutmeg<br />
2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese<br />
<br />
In a large stockpot or Dutch oven heat the butter and add the diced celery, carrots, and onions. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper and cook until tender, about 10 minutes.<br />

<br />
Here is the famous Taco Pizza you guys!<br />
<br />
As many of you know, we love pizza and we love tacos around here almost more than anything else.<br />
<br />
So why not combine the two into a delicious new creation?<br />
<br />
Well.....that's exactly what I did. I took the best of both dishes and made my now famous taco pizza a couple of months ago and have made it a few more times since.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
It is one of those dinners that gets better each time.<br />
<br />
I love having easy to prepare yet filling and satisfying meals for weeknights when everyone is on a busy schedule.<br />
<br />
This one is super simple because I choose to use store bought dough that I keep in the freezer and thaw overnight in the fridge or for about 3 hours on the counter the day I'm going to use it.<br />
<br />
I'm positive you'll have great success with this as a meal too. Go on give it a try.<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
1 round of pizza dough either store bought or homemade (I get mine from the Bel Air deli)<br />
1 14 oz. can refried beans, any flavor you like. I use traditional<br />
1 pound taco meat, prepared how you like<br />
1/3 cup salsa, plus more for garnish<br />
2 - 3 cups cheddar cheese, shredded<br />
2 cups lettuce, shredded<br />
2 tomatoes, seeded and diced<br />
1 4oz can sliced olives<br />
sour cream<br />
green onions, thinly sliced<br />
hot sauce of your choice<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 450 degrees for at least 30 minutes before use. Spray a pizza pan (I use the 12" Pampered Chef BBQ pizza pan) with cooking spray and set aside.<br />
<br />
Cook taco meat and season how you would for tacos. Set aside.<br />

I made these last year for the holidays and they are amazing!<br />
<br />
This year I'm ACTUALLY going to try and get a head start on holiday baking recipes so I'll be posting them through the next two months along with Fall recipes.<br />
<br />
I'm a sucker for cheesecake.<br />
<br />
It has to be one of my favorite desserts, but who wants to take hours of quiet time and water baths to get a delicious cheesecake? Not me!<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Well now you don't have to.<br />
<br />
In the time it takes to make a traditional cake you can have six perfect individual cheesecakes ready to eat.<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
for the crust<br />
3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs<br />
2 Tbs. sugar<br />
3 Tbs. butter, melted<br />
<br />
for the filling<br />
8 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature<br />
1 egg, at room temperature<br />
1/2 cup sugar<br />
1 Tbs. flour, all purpose<br />
35 Candy Cane Kisses, unwrapped and melted in the microwave<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.<br />
<br />
Line a baking sheet with 6 Jumbo Silicone baking liners and set aside.<br />
<br />
In a bowl mix the graham cracker crumbs and sugar then add the melted butter and mix well.<br />

Do you ever just want something warm for lunch but don't want to go out for a burger?<br />
<br />
I have an alternative for you.<br />
<br />
How about a Chicken, Bacon, Ranch Wrap? You can make just about any kind of wrap with just a few basic ingredients.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
My son has come to love these and I make them at least once or twice a week (with leftovers so he can make more).<br />
<br />
They are delicious right when you make them when the chicken and bacon are still warm or tucked into a lunch and eaten later in the day.<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
1 <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2017/10/everyday-grilled-chicken.html">Everyday Grilled Chicken</a> breast, as many as needed, grilled and thinly sliced<br />
2 strips bacon, cooked crispy, for each wrap you are making<br />
cheddar cheese, grated<br />
lettuce, shredded<br />
ranch dressing<br />
large flour tortillas, one per person<br />
optional toppings - pickles, tomatoes, salsa, veggies etc.<br />
<br />
To assemble warm the tortilla for about 10 seconds in the microwave or if you have a gas stove you can do this right over the flame of the burner.<br />
<br />
You can layer the wrap however you would like but here is how I make mine.<br />
<br />
Lay out the tortilla and add the sliced chicken down the middle. Then top with the bacon.<br />

I probably should have posted this recipe years ago but I'm finally getting around to it today!<br />
<br />
This is my "go to" recipe for grilled chicken that I use in a variety of recipes and it is a family favorite, mine especially, because of how quick and tasty it is.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
My son got me making this for his wraps after tasting it on my salad one day.<br />
<br />
It is also the perfect accompaniment to my <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2013/05/rice-vermicelli.html">Rice and Vermicelli</a> and a side salad for a quick dinner any night of the week.<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
thin cut chicken breasts, I usually use 1-1/2 pounds so there's plenty for leftovers<br />
salt<br />
pepper<br />
granulated garlic or garlic powder<br />
onion powder<br />
2 Tbs. butter<br />
1 - 2 Tbs. canola oil<br />
<br />
salt, pepper, garlic, and onion both sides of the chicken breasts and set aside.<br />

Most days we're all about cereal or peanut butter toast but I've been on a kick lately to make what I like to call Breakfast Fried Rice bowl with a Poached Egg on top.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is filling and easy to make and everyone likes it. </div>

I had this back in January when we were in Hawaii and fell in love with the idea of "put an egg on it" as people say. And I LOVE poached eggs and so does my family so this was a no brainer for us.</div>

Here's what you need:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2 - 3 cups cooked white or brown rice, your preference </div>
1 can spam diced or 1 cup breakfast ham cubed<br />
1 - 2 Tbs. canola oil<br />
3 eggs, beaten<br />
3 green onions, thinly sliced<br />
2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed<br />
1 large carrot, peeled and grated<br />
1 Tbs. sugar<br />
1/2 cup light soy sauce<br />
1 - 2 poached or fried eggs per person<br />
<br />
<br />
Cook your rice (or purchase it pre made) so that you have a couple of cups, depending on how many you're serving. I usually cook 1-1/2 cups, which makes about 3 cups cooked, for 4 - 6 people. Set aside.<br />
<br />
In a large skillet heat oil and fry the spam or ham cubes for about 10 minutes until brown and crispy, then remove to a plate and set aside.<br />

If you know me you know one of my favorite things to do for my family is cook. That totally includes packing lunches (and breakfast too some days) for those that go to work or school. I've even been known to throw in a lunch for friends :)<br />
<br />
I have always loved serving a variety of flavors at meal time and now that everyone is either back in school or has a job I get to make and pack creative meals for them to enjoy.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
These are my new favorite way to pack lunches for the kids and adults in my house.<br />
<br />
I am also trying to make easy to prepare and pack lunches. They shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to make and arrange in your lunch container.<br />
<a name='more'></a>Here are some of the products I LOVE:<br />
<br />
My newest obsession is Yumbox sold at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=yumbox">Amazon</a> or on the <a href="https://www.yumboxlunch.com/">Yumbox</a> website. They are great for portion control and have two LEAKPROOF lunch size boxes. They offer a 6 compartment box with five 1/2 cup portions plus dip, a four compartment box with one 2 cup, two 1/2 cup plus dip, a tapas box with four or five larger compartments, and a mini snack box with one 3/4 cup and one 1/3 cup plus dip.

There are so many configurations you could use this for while sending your family to school or work. I like the idea of only one container and this one definitely keeps the food where you put it because of the inside rubber piece on the top.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You could do breakfast with eggs, sausage links, toast strips and fruit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Oatmeal, fruit and nuts, and yogurt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Dried cereal, fruit, cubed cheese</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The lunch and dinner combos go on for days.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Dips, lunch meat, cheese, pizza, salads, sandwich & chips, wraps, burritos, rice, fruit, veggies, snacks, etc. etc. etc.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

If you love pasta dishes like we do you definitely need to try this one.<br />
<br />
This is the perfect mix of delicious chicken, bacon and asparagus in a creamy sauce that is amazing and delicious.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
This dish is pretty quick to put together and goes great with my <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2014/01/homemade-french-bread_12.html">Homemade French Bread</a>. The whole meal start to finish, including the bread making, only took me an hour! <br />
<br />
I started with the bread and while it was rising I made the pasta dish and both were done at the same time.<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
1 - 1-1/2 pounds boneless, skinless thin cut chicken breasts<br />
salt & pepper<br />
1 Tbs. canola or vegetable oil<br />
1 Tbs. butter<br />
4 cloves garlic, minced<br />
2 cups heavy cream, at room temperature<br />
2 cups whole milk<br />
1-1/2 cups Italian cheese, pre-grated<br />
1/2 Lb bacon, diced and cooked crispy<br />
1 bunch asparagus (about 1 pound) sliced into 1-1/2 inch pieces<br />
1 pound fettuccine<br />
<br />
<br />
In a small to medium skillet cook the diced bacon until crispy or as done as you like. Remove from pan and set aside.<br />

You know me and my love of soup but I also love super quick meals.<br />
<br />
This soup is perfect for lunch, dinner or even an afternoon snack.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
This is a mash up of a few different soup recipes I have tried over the years and is ready in 15 minutes, woohoo!<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
6 cups (48 oz) Chicken Stock<br />
24 oz. jar salsa (I use Pace)<br />
1 can red enchilada sauce<br />
2 Tbs. butter<br />
1 Tbs. sugar<br />
1 tsp. salt<br />
1 tsp. pepper<br />
3 cups cooked cubed chicken breast<br />
1 can pinto beans, drained and rinsed<br />
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed<br />
juice of 1 lime<br />
2 cups frozen corn<br />
2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese<br />
<br />
Toppings (optional)<br />
<br />
avocado<br />
green onions, sliced<br />
tortilla chips, crushed<br />
sour cream<br />
more shredded cheese<br />
<br />
In a large stockpot pour the chicken stock, salsa, enchilada sauce, and heat on medium-high.<br />

Sometimes you just need a classic cookie in your corner. <br />
<br />
After trying lots and lots of "the best cookie in the world" recipes I always come back to the Classic Toll House recipe with just a few adjustments.<br />

I think these are the easiest and yummiest (is that even a word?) cookies ever. And the best part is that they are so consistent. Every time I make them they turn out the same.....Perfect!<br />
<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
1 cup butter flavored Crisco<br />
1cup brown sugar, packed<br />
1/2 cup sugar<br />
1 large egg, at room temperature<br />
1 Tbs. vanilla extract<br />
2 Tbs. half & half<br />
2-1/4 cup flour<br />
1 tsp. baking soda<br />
1-1/2 tsp. kosher salt<br />
2 cups. semi sweet chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips<br />
1 cup pecans, chopped (optional)<br />
<br />
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat and set aside.<br />
<br />
In a bowl mix the flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside.<br />

We do a lot of grilling around here. As long as it's not raining I love to grill.<br />
<br />
And because I make a homemade lunch every day for anywhere from 2 - 5 adults I am always looking for something new for lunch.<br />
<br />
They say necessity is the mother of invention and that's how this recipe was invented. It was a NECESSITY that I not make another dang turkey sandwich for lunch again! For awhile at least, lol.<br />
<br />
This is such a simple marinade for a delicious chicken dish that can be used in salads, wraps, sandwiches, or eaten as the main course.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
1 orange juiced<br />
2 limes juiced<br />
1/2 cup canola oil<br />
1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce<br />
4 garlic cloves sliced<br />
3 tsp. ground ginger (fresh may be used in its place)<br />
1/2 tsp onion powder<br />
3 Tbs. honey<br />
2 tsp. salt<br />
1/2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper<br />
1-2 pounds chicken, I use boneless thin cut breasts<br />
<br />
Place all the ingredients in a bowl or 2 cup glass measuring cup and whisk until combined.<br />

Preheat barbecue to 375 degrees and place the chicken on the grill. Cook 4-5 minutes per side for thin cut breasts and longer for dark meat. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. Chicken must be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees to be safe.</div>

<br />
I found this recipe a few weeks ago on Facebook from <a href="http://cafedelites.com/2016/05/11/honey-mustard-chicken-avocado-bacon-salad/">Cafe Delites</a> and couldn't wait to try it out.<br />
<br />
I made this for lunch and have made the marinade/dressing several times just for the delicious flavor to make wraps and sandwiches.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
Marinade/Dressing: I usually triple this recipe and store it in the fridge for several weeks<br />
<br />
1/3 cup honey<br />
3 Tbs. whole grain mustard<br />
2 Tbs. Dijon mustard<br />
4 Tbs. olive oil<br />
1 - 2 cloves garlic, minced<br />
1/2 tsp. salt<br />
pepper to taste<br />
2 to 3 Tbs. water to thin if needed<br />
<br />
Salad<br />
<br />
Romaine lettuce, chopped<br />
red onion, sliced<br />
cherry tomatoes, cut in half lengthwise<br />
Pepper jack, cubed small<br />
Cheddar, cubed small<br />
bacon, cooked crispy and crumbled<br />
apple, diced, I prefer either Pink lady or Honeycrisp<br />
avocado, sliced<br />
carrots, sliced thinly<br />
marinated chicken breasts, grilled and sliced, 1 per person<br />
<br />
Place all the marinade/dressing ingredients in a bowl and mix until combined. Set aside.<br />

Since I perfected my cheesecake bar recipe last week I decided to try a variety of flavors.<br />
<br />
So far I'm two for two with delicious flavors and this Pumpkin White Chocolate one is A-MAZ-ING!<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
This is the perfect dessert for a weeknight, any night or a holiday dinner.<br />
<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
Crust<br />
1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs<br />
3 Tbs. Sugar<br />
1/2 cup melted butter, unsalted<br />
<br />
Filling<br />
2 - 8 oz. bricks cream cheese (full fat) at room temperature<br />
1/2 cup pumpkin puree, not pie filling<br />
1 cup sugar<br />
1 tsp. cinnamon<br />
1/2 tsp. nutmeg<br />
2 Tbs. flour<br />
<br />
Swirl<br />
1 cup white chocolate chips<br />
1 tsp. canola or vegetable oil<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. <br />
<br />

<br />
I got this recipe from my cousin who in turn got it from my Aunt who says there was a note on the original recipe that it came from my Great Aunt Florence Martin from Boston in the 1930's.<br />
<br />
I have, of course, revised the recipe to my taste and time schedule. <br />
<br />
This is a delicious casserole that has become a family favorite around here!<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
I'm not really sure why it's called Italian Delight either because other than the pasta it doesn't have any other Italian type flavors in it. So if you have an old family recipe similar to this please let me know where it originated from. I love old family recipes :)<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
1 pound ground beef<br />
1 package (1 lb.) wide or extra wide egg noodles, cooked separately just to Al Dente<br />
2 cups frozen corn<br />
1 23 oz. can tomato soup<br />
1 24 oz. jar pace picante salsa or any salsa of your choice (I use mild)<br />
2 cups pre shredded cheddar/jack cheese<br />
1 Tbs. butter<br />
1 cup pasta water reserved<br />
<br />
In an oven safe pot or Dutch oven brown the ground beef then drain off the excess fat.<br />

Here is my favorite in the lineup of new soups I've been making lately.<br />
<br />
I love a good, hearty vegetable beef soup and this one hits the spot for sure.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
If you've been looking to make some delicious soups this fall and winter this one is a sure thing. It is packed full of juicy beef, potatoes, carrots, corn, and other veggies and is super simple to make.<br />
<br />
I've made this twice in the last two weeks and everyone in the family loves it.<br />
<br />
This soup is great for sending to work or school and if you don't already own one, I would suggest using a <a href="https://www.hydroflask.com/food-transport">Hydro Flask Food Flask</a> to keep your soups, stews, pastas, chili's, etc hot this winter. (No paid advertising here, lol, I just LOVE Hydro Flask)<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
2 Lb. boneless chuck roast, cubed into 1 inch pieces with as much fat removed as possible<br />
2 Tbs. canola oil<br />
2 Tbs. butter<br />
3 Tbs. tomato paste, I use the squeeze tube kind<br />
3 - 4 large carrots, peeled and sliced for soup<br />
4 - 5 Yukon gold potatoes, diced into 1 inch pieces<br />
2 cups frozen corn<br />
3 celery stalks, diced<br />
1/2 yellow onion, diced<br />
3 garlic cloves, minced<br />
3 Tbs. cooking sherry<br />
2 tsp. kosher salt<br />
fresh ground pepper<br />
3 tsp. Italian seasoning<br />
1/2 tsp. oregano<br />
2 bay leaves<br />
32 oz. low sodium beef broth<br />
4 cups water<br />
<br />
<br />
Cube and salt and pepper the beef.<br />

It's time that time of year to start fancying up all the desserts.<br />
<br />
I have been working all week on perfecting these cheesecake bars and they are AMAZING!<br />
<br />
I thought with all the hustle and bustle of the holiday season that's fast approaching why not make a bar recipe instead of a traditional cheesecake. These are easy to prepare and store well in the fridge.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
These would make the perfect dessert for a weeknight get together. Make them in the morning and chill for dessert.<br />
<br />
Any way you serve these just make sure you do!<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
Crust<br />
1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs<br />
3 Tbs. sugar<br />
1/2 cup melted butter<br />
<br />
Filling<br />
2 - 8 oz. bricks cream cheese, at room temperature (I only use full fat)<br />
1 cup sugar<br />
2 large eggs, at room temperature<br />
1 tsp. vanilla<br />
zest and juice of 1 lemon<br />
2 Tbs. flour<br />
1/2 cup raspberry jam<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 9 x 9 pan with cooking spray and set aside.<br />
<br />
In a medium bowl mix the graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Then add the melted butter and mix until it resembles wet sand.<br />

If you know anything about me you know I LOVE soup.<br />
<br />
I love soup in the Spring. I love soup in the Fall. I love soup in the Winter. And I even love soup in the middle of summer!<br />
<br />
I love everything about soup. The process of making it, the slow simmer of it on the stove. The total comfort you get from a bowl and especially the warm delicious way it fills you up without giving you that overstuffed feeling.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
I made this pasta e fagioli last year and then promptly forgot all about it until I found the recipe a few days ago.<br />
<br />
Now that the weather has turned a little cooler I thought it was the perfect time to make another batch.<br />
<br />
Boy oh boy was I excited when this soup was done cooking. It smelled so delicious and tasted even better!<br />
<br />
Make a batch today and you'll be able to enjoy it all week.<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
1 pound ground beef<br />
4 oz. Pancetta<br />
2 Tbs. canola oil<br />
2 large carrots, diced (approx. 1 cup)<br />
3 celery stalks, diced (approx. 1 cup)<br />
1 yellow onion, diced<br />
4 garlic cloves, minced<br />
8 oz. can tomato sauce<br />
14 oz. can crushed tomatoes<br />
2 cans cannelini beans, drained and rinsed<br />
1 bay leaf<br />
3/4 tsp. dried oregano<br />
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning<br />
1/4 tsp. dried thyme<br />
1 Tbs. sugar<br />
1-2 tsp. salt<br />
pinch of red pepper flakes<br />
1 cup. uncooked Ditalini pasta (cooked separately for only about 5 minutes to Al Dente)<br />
32 oz. low sodium chicken stock<br />
3 - 4 cups water<br />
Freshly grated Parmesan for garnish<br />
<br />
In a large stock pot or Dutch oven heat the pan over medium high and add the ground beef and Pancetta and cook until crumbly and brown. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain.<br />

One of my favorite things to make for a crowd is a crescent ring meal. Crescent rolls make food fun and delicious!<br />
<br />
They are super easy, feed a ton of people and you can change the size to make them bigger or smaller at any time.<br />
<br />
I have several on my blog that are delicious as a lunch or dinner.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Here is my <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2012/12/all-american-cheeseburger-ring-recipe.html">All American Cheeseburger Ring</a> , <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2011/10/bbq-shredded-pork-ring.html">BBQ Shredded Pork Ring</a> , <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2011/10/chicken-cranberry-ring_24.html">Chicken Cranberry Ring</a>, and my <a href="http://www.michellestastycreations.com/2012/11/chicken-enchilada-ring-recipe-re-do.html">Chicken Enchilada Ring</a>, All are family favorites and get gobbled up fast. <br />
<br />
Here's what you need: (this is considered a single recipe)<br />
<br />
1/4 cup mayonnaise (I only use Best Foods)<br />
2 Tbs. Dijon mustard<br />
1 tube crescent rolls, regular<br />
12 thin slices of ham of your choice<br />
4 thick slices of Swiss cheese, cut diagonal<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.<br />
<br />
In a small bowl mix the mayonnaise and Dijon until smooth.<br />

There's nothing like a big bowl of comfort on a cold day, right?<br />
<br />
Well today was cool and breezy so I decided it was the perfect day for homemade soup.<br />
<br />
And what better way to use a store bought rotisserie chicken than in a pot of soup.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
I could actually eat soup any day of the week, whether it's hot or cold out. That's how much I love soup.<br />
<br />
The other great thing about soup is I put the majority of it in a bowl in the fridge and send it to school and work with the kids/adults in my house. <br />
<br />
All I have to do in the morning is heat up their <a href="http://www.hydroflask.com/18-oz-food-flask">Hydro Flask</a> food flask with some boiling/super hot water for a few minutes, pour it out and pour in the super hot soup and they have lunch or dinner that literally stays hot for hours. (No, I'm not getting paid to sponsor them I just REALLY LOVE my Hydro flasks)<br />
<br />
So go make a batch for your family and enjoy this soup all week!<br />
<br />
<br />
Here's what you need:<br />
<br />
2 Tbs. canola oil<br />
2 Tbs. butter<br />
3 celery stalks, diced<br />
3 large carrots, peeled and sliced<br />
1 yellow onion, diced<br />
3 garlic cloves, peeled and minced<br />
1 tsp. oregano<br />
1 tsp. Italian seasoning<br />
1 bay leaf, remove before serving<br />
1/2 tsp. thyme<br />
salt & pepper to taste<br />
1 Tbs. chicken bouillon<br />
1 whole rotisserie chicken, pulled and cut up<br />
64 oz. low sodium chicken stock<br />
1/4 pound spaghetti broken into small pieces or at least in half<br />
<br />
<br />
In a large stock pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil and butter over medium high.<br />
<br />
Add the carrots, onions, and celery. Cook until tender, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic and stir for minute.<br />
