CROCKPOT CHEESY CHICKEN CASSEROLE

We absolutely loved this dish! Even more than the last one! Served as a great meal and still had plenty to freeze since it is just the two of us eating.

BOW-TIE PASTA

We liked this dish - it was easy enough and used up some of our ham! However, my husband suggests the broccoli be diced or finely chopped.

BLUEBERRY JELL-O-SALAD (Brenda Smith)

I tried this recipe out last week. My husband didn't care for it too much, but I brought the rest of the pan to my family afterwards and my sister ABSOLUTELY loved it! It was gone within minutes!

BLUEBERRY JELL-O-SALAD

1 pkg. grape jell-O
1 can blueberry pie filling
2 cup boiling water
1 (20 oz.) crushed pineapple with juice
1 (8 oz.) cream cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup sugar

First: Dissolve jell-O in 2 cups boiling water. (You only need a small package of jell-O). Add blueberry filling and pineapple juice. Put in refrigerator until set. 
Second: Beat together until fluffy; cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar. When your jell-O has set use this as your topping and refrigerate until served.

Enjoy!

SPINACH STRAWBERRY SALAD (Marilyn Bullock)

In attempt to spice up my parent's anniversary - we provided them with a massively elegant dinner. On this fancy occasion, we served them this salad! Usually, I am not too fond of spinach and do not make many salads, but I really liked this this one! In fact, the whole family tried it and we all loved it! May modify proportions of ingredients to meet your family's individual needs (e.g. extra nuts, strawberries). Enjoy!

SPINACH STRAWBERRY SALAD

1 lg. pkg. fresh spinach leaves
1 cucumbers, sliced
1 c. strawberries, sliced
1 sm. pkg. sliced almonds
1/3 c. sugar
1 T. vegetable oil
1 lemon, juice only
2 T. white vinegar
1 tsp. poppyseed

In large bowl combine spinach leaves, sliced cucumber, strawberries and nuts. In another bowl combine remaining ingredients using wire whisk. Pour over greens just prior to serving.
