My Favorite Potato Salad

 I’m not sure how I haven’t posted this here yet. It’s legit my FAVORITE potato salad! It’s not too mustard-y and I’m often asked to make it for potlucks/get togethers/etc. It truly is a summer staple too. Yes I went there. I know it’s a few months away yet but I’m dreaming of warmer weather and sunshine and camping!!! 

This is so well loved that I drove to TN for my best friends oldest daughters graduation and made this for her because she too LOVES it! I mean it’s not the only reason I went to see them! My Bug graduated! That makes me a proud bonus mom! It would also be a lie if I said I didn’t take every opportunity to see my bestie and her girls!

Ok, ok! Get on with it already! Right?!? Yeah yeah I hear ya!!


Mary’s Potato Salad

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds yukon gold potatoes (about 6 medium)
  • 1 ½ cups mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar

  • 3-4 tablespoons chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 stalks of celery, finely chopped
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • 4 hard boiled eggs, roughly chopped


Instructions

  • Peel and dice potatoes into cubes. Place potatoes into a large pot of water.
  • Boil for about 20 minutes (or until fork tender.) Take care not to overcook your potatoes – you don’t want them overly mushy.
  • Mix mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, chicken stock and salt and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Add potatoes, celery, onion and stir gently.
  • Stir in chopped eggs.
  • Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours to blend flavors and chill.

Marry Me Meatballs

 I can’t say no to crockpot recipes and Your Barefoot Neighbor shared this one so I had to try it. I’d like to say my children aren’t picky but they all have their own quirks when it comes to food and my youngest daughter didn’t care for the sun-dried tomatoes. Everyone else enjoyed it as it is.  Marry Me Meatballs Ingredients 2 lbs frozen Italian meatballs 4 C chicken stock 1 jar sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped  1 can cream of chicken soup Italian seasoning Garlic powder Onion powder  Red pepper flakes 2 lbs gnocchi (shelf stable ones) 1/2 pint heavy whipping cream Baby spinach  Shredded Parmesan cheese (I used shaved Parmesan) Directions Add meatballs, chicken stock, cream of chicken soup, sun-dried tomatoes and seasonings to crockpot. Cook on high for 3 hours. When that is done add in your gnocchi, heavy cream and baby spinach and cook for another 30 minutes on high. Top with the Parmesan cheese. Serve with garlic toast.

Sausage & Rice Casserole

 Last night we failed to pull anything out of the freezers for dinner. Seems to be a common thing here in this house and it’s quite frustrating. I went to my fridge and saw the mushrooms I had gotten and remembered there was a TikTok recipe for them. Y’all this was the EASIEST meal!  Sausage & Rice Casserole Ingredients  1 lb Jimmy Dean sausage 2 pouches of Uncle Ben’s long grain and wild rice  1 1/2 C. Mozzarella or Cheddar cheese, shredded  1 can of golden mushroom soup 1 package of sliced mushrooms  Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brown sausage, add in mushrooms once almost all the way cooked. While that’s cooking down, pop your rice pouches in the microwave per the instructions. When they’re done add them in with the sausage and mushrooms. Also add in your can of golden mushroom soup and the shredded cheese. Mix it all up and put in the oven for 15 minutes.
