Cake Balls


This is an easy yummy recipe. You can use any kind of cake mix and frosting combo. For this one, I used red velvet cake andcream cheese icing.

Cake Balls

1 box of cake mix
1 can of icing
1 package of almond bark (this is whatever kind would go best with your cake mix!)

Cook cake according to package directions. When still warm, crumble in mixing bowl. Mix with the entire can of icing. IMPORTANT! Refrigerate cake/icing for at least an hour before making cake balls! Melt almond bark. Scoop cake into small balls, I used a small cookie scoop. Dip into almond bark, place on platter and allow to dry. YUMMY!

Chicken Dip

My coworkers and I have become addicted to this fattening dip! It is quick, easy and delicious....

Chicken Dip

1 block cream cheese (softened)
1 large can of chicken
ranch dressing
wing sauce (I have used Texas Pete and Moore's)
shredded cheddar cheese

Mix cream cheese and canned chicken well. Pour in 2 tablespoons ranch dressing. I dont measure the wing sauce, it is based upon your taste as to how much you put in. Mix well. Pour into baking dish, top with shredded cheese and cook on 350 for about 10-15 mins. Remove and serve with chips.Photobucket

Catalina Chicken for the Crockpot

Of course the cooking plans for this week went down the drain. A) I wasnt prepared and B) It's pointless to cook a meal for a large family when only 3 of us are home. I DID manage to make crockpot chili on Tuesday and it must have been good because the kids each ate 2 or 3 bowls. Monday night we had chicken salad and Thursday night, we had baked spaghetti. Brooke had a basketball game Friday at 6, so we wound up at Waffle House. I am making up for it tonight though, by cooking Catalina Crockpot Chicken. I mixed it up and went back to look to make sure that I was getting everything, I just KNEW I was forgetting something!

Catalina Crockpot Chicken

4-6 large chicken breasts
1 bottle of catalina salad dressing
1 package of dry onion soup mix

Pour catalina dressing and onion soup mix in crockpot. Stir. Add chicken. Cook for 3 hours (high) or 6 hours (low).

I've been really bad about cooking since going back to work. I DO cook, but it it is usually something quick and easy. I did find a new and very inspirational blog called www.weekbyweekmeals.blogspot.com. She plans her recipes by the week! I also took the time today to make a new background and header for the recipe blog. What do you think?
