These were the most popular recipes from last week at Busy Cooks. They are the recipes that will help you transition from summer to fall, and fit into busy schedules as we get back to work and school.
1. Chicken Coatings
With these coating recipes and some boneless, skiness chicken breasts on hand, dinner will be ready in about 30 minutes.
2. Pork Chops with Cheesy Hash Brown Potatoes
This is one of my very favorite crockpot recipes. The combination of tender pork chops with rich and cheese coated hash brown potatoes makes the ultimate comfort food. Try it this weekend!
3. Sticky Chicken
Chicken breasts marinate overnight in a rich syrup of balsamic vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger, then slowly cook in the syrup until tender with a fabulous sticky coating. Kids love this recipe!
4. Bacon Mushroom Meatloaf
This is the best meatloaf recipe in the world! Bacon adds a smoky snap, the mushrooms add rich flavor and moisture, and the cheeses complement the tender meat. Serve it with some mashed potatoes and a spinach salad for a fabulous retro menu.
5. Mexican Pizza
I'm always so happy when it starts getting cooler outside; not only do I love fall, but I can bring out the recipes I serve during the fall and winter months. And this recipe is superb. If you love Mexican food, you have to try this pizza. It will become one of your favorites too!
