Peach Muffins..


I love peaches.. And I am trying out new muffin ideas for the kids to grab on the way out to school and to snack on after. These are really good and makes a lot. 

3 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 salt
1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
3 eggs
2 cups sugar
2 cups peaches

Preheat oven 400. In large bowl mix the flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, mix the oil, eggs, and sugar. Stir the oil mixture into the flour mixture just until moist. Fold in peaches. Spoon into muffin cups. Bake 25 minutes and cool for 10. Enjoy..

Freezer meals..





































I took the time this weekend to make more freezer meals. With school and football starting i wanted to get a jump start on our meals. So far I have baked spag., chicken spag.,mexican meatloaf, meatloaf, hamburger patties, chili beans, chicken tortilla soup, santa fe chicken packets, chicken pop pie and vegetable soup. This a great jump start on my freezer meals. All the recipes are on here for you to use.  Hope this helps you guys out too with your busy schedules.. Remember to get all your zip locks, tin pans and tin foil ready for freezing. 







Stuffed Mexican Shells..

These are so good.. A friend of mine from work Marla gave me this recipe and the whole family loves it....

 1 pound ground beef (or ground turkey)
1 package low-sodium taco seasoning
 4 ounces cream cheese
 16 jumbo pasta shells
 1 1/2 cups salsa
 1 cup taco sauce
1 cup cheddar cheese
 1 cup Monterrey jack cheese
 For toppings opt.  green onions
Sour cream


 Preheat oven to 350°. In a pan brown the ground beef; add taco seasoning and prepare according to package directions. Add cream cheese, cover and simmer until cheese is melted. Stir together and mix well. Set aside and cool completely. While ground beef is cooking, cook the pasta shells according to package directions; drain. Set shells out individually on cutting board or baking sheet so that they don’t stick together. Pour salsa on bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Stuff each shell with 1-2 tablespoons of the meat mixture. Place shells in 9×13 pan open side up. Evenly cover shells with taco sauce. Cover dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, add shredded cheese and bake for 10-15 more minutes with the foil removed. Top with green onions or olives if desired. Serve with sour cream and/or more salsa.

Sante Fa Chicken packets..

While I was making the freezer meals I had some chicken that I needed to do something with. So I was busy with the freezer meals so I just seasoned the chicken and added a few toppings and they turned out awesome...


5 chicken breast
creole season
1 can black beans rinsed and drained
2 cups frozen shoe peg corn
1 can rotel drained
1 teaspoon cumin
mexican cheese

Season the chicken with creole season and place in tinfoil that has been sprayed with cooking spray.  Mix the beans, corn, rotel and cumin together in a bowl. Spoon over chicken and fold foil around and leave a small pocket at top for steam. Bake 400 for 1 hour and sprinkle cheese over tops and dig in.
