Mock Chow Mein

Granny style! When my husband and I first started dating, we spent a lot of time at Granny’s house. Often we would have this dish for dinner. It’s easy to make, can feed a crowd and doesn’t take a lot of ingredients! Oh and very little prep work, you have to dice an onion. Seriously! Let’s go!!


Mock Chow Mein

Ingredients 

1 - 1 1/2 lbs ground hamburger 
3 10.75oz cans of chicken w/ rice soup
1 10.75oz can cream of celery 
1 10.75oz can cream of onion soup
1 medium onion, diced
Seasoning of your choice, to taste

Directions 

Cook the hamburger with your diced onion and season it how you wish. We use Kinders The Blend. Drain the grease. Add the soup cans. Yes, all of them, do NOT drain the chicken w/ rice. Cool until hot, stir occasionally so it doesn’t stick. It’s at this point we usually add another cup of cooked rice because we like it a little thicker. Then serve over chow mein noodles and sprinkle a bit of soy sauce over it if you choose. 
Easy peasy!

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.
