It's fall; the leaves are turning color, the weather is crisp and cool, and school is really and truly underway. Celebrate the new season with some of my favorite recipes!
1. Pork Chops with Cheesy Hash Brown Potatoes
This is one of my favorite recipes. The combination of cheese, onion, and hash brown potatoes is sublime. With just ten ingredients, you'll have dinner on the table in about an hour - and most of that time the food is baking!
2. Crockpot Roast Beef Dinner
With five different vegetables and fabulously tender, melt-in-your-mouth beef, this truly is a one pot dinner. Make it anytime; I especially love making it on the weekend when there's time to savor the flavors.
3. Shrimp Fried Rice
Fried Rice of any kind is a fabulous last-minute supper idea. All you need is some cooked rice (stop at your local Chinese take-out place and buy some on the way home), eggs, soy sauce, and a few other ingredients - leftovers are perfect - and you'll have dinner on the table in about 20 minutes.
4. Crockpot Sauerbraten Meatballs
Sauerbraten is a classic German recipe that combines beef with onions, vinegar, and gingersnaps in a fabulous sweet and sour flavor combination. Make it super easy with this recipe that uses frozen meatballs.
5. Cheesy Chicken Casserole
Oh yum - this casserole combines some of my favorite ingredients. And because you make it ahead of time and refrigerate until it's time to bake, it's so easy.
6. My Mom's Meatloaf
And who doesn't love meatloaf? This easy recipe is a real winner that has stood the test of time.
7. Fresh Apple Quick Bread
Make this super easy quick bread and your house will smell like heaven! It's perfect for snacking or breakfast on the run. Yum.
