I love to cook and now that I finally (after 3 weeks) have everything unpacked I have time to cook more interesting foods. My new years resolution was to try at least 4 new recipes a week since I have so many recipes I want to try.
New this week: steak fingers, mayonnaise, cayenne coconut chicken fingers, spicy coleslaw,
recipe please!
So Tasty, So Yummy
I modify a recipe from Make it Fast, Cook it Slow (a must have slow cooker book if you don't already have it) by putting in the same additions each time. However I don't measure. I'll measure this time and then pass the updated recipe along!

Have you ever tried mashing the squash in with the cauliflower...sooo good! I normally do 2 medium squash for each cauliflower
That sounds great!
Oh, cornbread casserole sounds yummy, can I get the recipe?
basically you make the cornbread like normal. I add in a big handful of frozen corn, green chilies(or jalapenos), and cheddar cheese.
Make your taco meat like normal.
Put half of corn bread mixture in dish, put taco meat mixture, cheese, and then put other half of corn bread mixture.
I typically have to bake a little longer than the cornbread recipe calls for.
DH likes it with salsa on the side.
