My kids and I cooked this on live TV and not only did we love it, but the anchors loved it as well! The hearty, savory and sweet taste of this one pot lasagna dinner will sure be a crowd pleaser!
02 | Broccoli Cheese Soup
I cannot say enough about this broccoli cheese soup recipe. It is not only my favorite broccoli cheese soup, it is also one of my most go-to recipes during the week. It’s loaded with veggies yet they are disguised by the cheese so the kids can’t complain!
03 | Crock-Pot Beef Sandwiches
I’ve never been a fan of sandwiches, but these crock-pot beef sandwiches are the exception! I luuuuv them – and so do my kids! Just be warned, you can’t eat just one!

Sometimes you just want a meal that is more like a side, this is that dinner! It’s a true comfort meal type with hash browned potatoes and crispy corn cereal!
06 | Oven Risotto
This is another one of those meals that can also be a wonderful side. However, I prefer this as a meal because I cannot stop eating it when I make it! So I eat enough for an entire meal, rather than a side!

Potato soup at it’s finest! Chives, cheddar and bacon all pair perfectly together to make the most delicious potato cheddar soup ever!

This is hands down the best vegan vegetable chili that is loaded with hearty roasted vegetables with the perfect amount of spice that will leave you craving more – and forgo the meat chilis in the future!
