Flavored French Toast
My family loves french toast. We have it for supper quite often because it is an easy, filling, and inexpensive meal that pleases everyone. I grew up eating french toast with peanut butter spread on it along with syrup and that is how I still eat it. Everyone is always surprised and do not think that peanut butter on french toast would be good, but it is, it is really good. Everyone in the family eats it this way except Devin because he is allergic to peanuts and peanut products. We put cinnamon sugar on his now, but for years he just ate it plain with syrup. French toast is…

Slow Cooker Chicken
Since school started back, Devin is home for supper again most nights. After he gets done with football practice, he is ready for a big filling supper. I have missed cooking big suppers. They are actually easier for me since that is what I am used to. My husband likes a variety of items at each meal which is hard to do when you are only cooking for 2 or 3. I end up with a lot of leftovers when there are only 2-3 eating. I bought some chicken legs and thighs on sale a month or so ago but I didn’t separate them out before I froze them. I…

How to Make an Omelette
I don’t make omelettes very often but we really do like them when I do. I know some people think that they are hard to make but they really aren’t.

I fried the patties first and then scrambled the ends to go in the omelette. I used ham, sausage and cheese in his omelette. I added some bacon bits to mine. That is the nice thing about omelettes, they can be made however each person…

What’s the Deal at Aldi?
We didn’t have an Aldi locally until a couple of years ago. There was one an hour away and I had heard that people made special trips up there to buy groceries. I even went and looked around once when I was in that town for work. I wasn’t impressed because I didn’t recognize anything, I remember thinking it is just a lot of ‘off-brand’ stuff and I didn’t get a basket because I didn’t know they were outside. So I wasn’t excited when I heard we were getting one. I didn’t go to the grand opening or even visit there the first month or so. I am really not…
