Super easy and yummy!

1 envelope Lipton onion soup mix
Approx. 3/4 can of water (using empty soup can)
Package of egg noodles
Mix everything in slow cooker, except noodles, and cook on low about 8 hours. When ready, cook noodles according to package directions and serve beef mixture over noodles. (My hubby likes this served over mashed potatoes.)

Cheesy Ham and Hash Brown Casserole
I made these hash browns for a brunch recently...delicious! This recipe can be prepared the night before so all you have to do in the morning is pop it in the oven.
1 (32 oz) pkg frozen hash browns (southern style type)
1/2 lb cooked, diced ham (I used Black Forest from the deli)
2 (10.75 oz) cans cream of potato soup
1 (16 oz) container sour cream
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups grated/shredded Parmesan cheese (I used the kind sold in a bag near all the other shredded cheeses)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x13 dish. In a large bowl, mix hash browns, ham, soup, sour cream and cheddar cheese. Spread evenly into prepared dish. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake approximately 1 hour in preheated oven until bubbly and lightly browned.

This is my new favorite dish. It is so good! You need to go buy the ingredients and make this. Now. Go. Your family will thank you.
8 soft taco size flour tortillas (my grocery store makes these fresh daily...woohoo)3 cups shredded cooked chicken (make it easy and grab a rotisserie chicken from the deli)
1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
2 cups shredded Monterrey jack and cheddar cheese blend, divided
3 TBSPs butter
3 TBSPs flour
1 (14.5 oz) can chicken broth
1 cup sour cream
1 (4 oz) can fire roasted diced green chiles, mild
chopped fresh cilantro for garnish, if desired
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with cooking spray and set aside. Mix the chicken together with all of the pepper jack cheese and 1 cup of the jack/cheddar cheese blend. Place an equal amount of the chicken mixture into each tortilla, roll up and place seam side down into prepared pan. In a saucepan, melt the butter. Add the flour; cook and stir with a wisk for 1 minute. Add the chicken broth, whisking until smooth. Continue cooking over medium heat until sauce is thick and bubbly. Remove from heat and stir in the sour cream and green chiles. Pour the sauce evenly over the enchiladas. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup of jack/cheddar cheese blend.

Chicken with Awesome Sauce
This sauce really is awesome! I got this recipe from HEB and we will definitely be having this for dinner again soon. (For those of you not from Texas, HEB is a grocery store.) I had never heard of a Hatch chile pepper until I came across this recipe and apparently they are in season right now. If you can't get your hands on a Hatch chile pepper, you can use a poblano pepper instead.
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (approx 1 lb) trimmed and cut in half lengthwise
2 TBSP grapeseed oil
salt and pepper, to taste
4 bacon slices, chopped
1 Hatch green chile pepper, chopped
1/3 cup Robert's Reserve Pineapple Coconut Mango Tequila Sauce
Preheat grill to medium heat. Toss chicken in oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill chicken for 5 - 6 minutes on each side or until cooked through. While the chicken is cooking, sauté bacon and pepper in a skillet over medium heat until bacon is a little crispy. Add pineapple sauce to the pan and heat for 30 seconds. Pour sauce over chicken and serve. Yum!

Simple Salsa
This is a great salsa recipe! It's really easy, especially if you have a 3 cup mini food processor. (I'm pretty sure my mini food processor cost less than $15 at Wal-Mart.) Even though this recipe uses canned tomatoes, the other ingredients give it a boost a fresh flavor. I've always used kosher salt for this recipe, so be careful if you use a different type of salt because you may not need as much. And I personally use quite a bit of cilantro, but you can adjust the amount to suit your tastes.
1 can (14.5 oz) Mexican stewed tomatoes
1/2 tsp kosher salt
2 cloves garlic, minced
juice from one small lime (or half of a large lime)
handful of fresh cilantro leaves
Dump all of the ingredients into a mini food processor and pulse until the cilantro leaves are all chopped up and everything is well blended. Enjoy!
