basic Mashed potatos
Ingreedients:
- Potatos
- butter (a half a stick per two potatos)
- salt
- Water
Directions:
Get a pot, then fill it up with water about half way. Put it on the stove and turn the burner on medium high, or medium, just need to warm up the water. While you're waiting on that, peel and then cut up however many potatoes you want. Cut them as evenly as possible. Throw them in that pot of water and then turn it up to high. Leave them in there until you can stick a fork in them and they're soft. Get a strainer and pour the potatos in it, then pour those into the mixing bowl. Put the butter in there and then turn the mixer on low. While that's mixing, you can put whatever else in there, salt, pepper, whatever. Mix for about 5 minutes and then taste them, if they don't taste the way you want keep going. If they do, just eat them.
Slow Cooker Roast
Ingredients:
Directions
Get your roast, and fill the crock pot up with some water. You want the water to be slightly over top of the roast when you put it in, but not too much. Season the roast with whatever you want, then turn the crock pot on low. Or high. If it's on low, leave it in there from 8-10 hours, if high then 4-5.

Coffee Crock Roast

- 2 medium onions, thinly sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced, or some garlic powder
- 4 pound Beef roast, quartered
- One measuring cup of coffee
- 1 fourth cup of soy sauce If you want gravy then:
- One fourth cup of corn starch
- 6 tablespoons of cold water

Combine all the ingredients in the crock pot, except gravy
Cook the roast on low for 9 or 10 hours, or until meat is tender

Breakfast Caserole
Ingredients:
- 6 eggs
- 6 slices of bread, cubed
- one cup of mild chetter, or sharp if you prefer
- 1 pound of ground sausage
- 2 cups of milk
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of dry mustard
Directions:
Ahead of time, cook the sausage until brown in a skillet and drain it. Then mix all the ingredients, spread evenly in a caserole dish, and cook for 45 minutes in the oven on 350. Make sure that you spread the egs out when you crack them into the pan. Don't let them sit where they drop, they will simply be cooked in one spot instead of throughout the caserole. Also, it may be helpful to put your bread in first, and layer things on top of that foundation
Sausage Cheese Biscuits
Ingreedients:
- A pound of ground sausage
- Up to one pound of sharp chetter, but less if you want
- 2 cups of biscuit mix
Directions:
Mix together. Form into biscuits. Place on a well greased pan and put in oven for 25-30 minutes on 350. Alternatively, form batter into smaller clumps and make sausage balls
Microwave Fudge
Don't let the microwave part discourage you. This is good stuff.Ingredients
- 3 cups of sugar,
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter,
- 2/3 cup evaporated milk,
- one 12 oz. package semisweet chocolate chips
- A 7 1/2 oz. jar marshmallow�creme,
- 1 teaspoon vanilla.
- Butter or cooking spray for the pan.
Directions
- Combine sugar, butter, and evaporated milk in a 3 quart microwavable bowl or casserole dish, preferably �a bowl with a handle,� because it's going to be very hot.
- Microwave this on high for 5 - 7 minutes or until mixture comes to a boil. Stir it well at 2.5 minutes�and 5�minutes.
- Carefully take it out of the microwave and stir in chocolate chips, marshmallow creme and vanilla until all is melted. (A wooden spoon to stir would be best here because the marshmallow is hard to stir �in)
- Butter a 9x13 pan, and pour the mixture into it. Spread evenly, and then chill for several�hours.
- Cut into squares. A sturdy plastic disposable knife cuts through it better than a table knife, if you have one.) �It makes about 8 dozen squares.
French Toast
This will make about two slices.
Ingreedients
- Some real thick bread, I like Brownberry brand, but just some thick cut will do.
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 cup milk
Directions
- Get a bowl and wisk your egg, vanilla, and Cinnamon together.
- Then mix in your milk
- If your bowl is big enough to lay your whole piece of bread flat in, cool. If not, get a dish you can do that in, and pour the mixture in there. Soak both sides of the bread and cook it in the skillet on low for a couple minutes on each side. Try not to burn it, burnt cinamon isn't very good.
One Pan Cheesy Chicken Caserole
Adapted from This Recipe without the broccoli.Ingredients
- One pound of ground chicken
- two tablespoons of some kind of seasoning, I use minced garlic
- One cup of rice
- 2 and a half cups of chicken broth or water
- four ounces of shredded chetar cheese
Directions
- In a bowl, put in the cup of rice. Cover it with about two or so inches of water, and leave it set there for fifteen or twenty minutes to soak. When that's done, just pour the excess water out and you should just then have a bowl of soaked rice.
- Get a large pan, one that you can put a lid on. On medium heat, cook the ground chicken. Throw it in there and let it stay on one side for three or four minutes before breaking it up and cooking it the rest of the way. You don't have to get this step perfect, as it'll be simmering for a while and it'll keep cooking.
- When you're done cooking the chicken, add the soaked rice and seasoning to it. Cook for about a minute, then deglaze the pan with a half cup of chicken broth or water.
- Add the other two cups of broth or water, then bring that to a boil. Then, turn the heat down to low and cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes. Stir around the eight minute mark so things don't stick to the pan.
- Next, turn off the heat and add your cheese, letting it melt for a few minutes while you cover the pot again.
