Fudge and Strawberry Crustos

Jason told me this is now his favorite dessert, Jen's concoction of crustos, strawberries, and hot fudge (Nacho style). Maybe that's why he likes it so much. His dream is to fill our chocolate fountain with nacho cheese. No wonder I didn't weigh-in at my Biggest Loser contest this last week. My family has never eaten so good, thanks to Heidi, Mer, and Jen. It's awesome!

Our meals this week!

We had a GREAT week of food!

For St. Patty's Heidi did our meal with marinated pork chops, twice baked potatoes, asparagus and green cupcakes, thanks Heidi, my family inhaled those potatoes!

Katie did crockpot meatballs, garlic bread, green jigglers rice and green beans

Merilee made chicken broccoli casserole, garlic butter rolls and salad

Jenny did creamy chicken enchiladas, corn, salad and a dessert of "crustos" from Taco time, sliced strawberries on the top, drizzled in homemade hot fudge, like a bowl of nachos.

It was a great week, can't wait to hear what you Logan girls did! Hope you all had a good week.

Everything looks so good!

I'm so excited to eat this week.
Katie,  I think I kept my side dishes!  Are you missing the sides for my meal?  It was salad and rice,  the crackers for the casserole crumbs and rolls.

I just thought I would share our wonderful meals for the week.

Jen - Ham with a yummy sauce, funeral potatoes, rolls, green beans

Mer - crockpot round steak, potatoes, cauliflower, key lime pie

Katie - whole herbed chicken, cauliflower, bread, baked beans

Heidi - Cafe rio salad with the fixin's, oatmeal cake

Another week of fun meals and what Daxton refers to as "a whole dinner". Apparently, for the past 15 years he has only been partially fed. Have a good week everyone.

St. Patrick's Day

We have done a few things for St. Patty's Day in the past- green food- jello, mashed potatoes, green rolls, pistachio torte, etc. There is actually a pretty good recipe for cornbeef and cabbage in the Mormon Celebrations cookbook that is cooked in the crockpot. It has red potatoes & carrots with it. You add the cabbage last, so it's not soggy, then melt a whole bunch of butter over the entire dish. Not too bad. We are up for new ideas if you have any.

Also- Mel does a funny tradition for St. Patty's Day that I started also. Leprechauns turn your milk green in the middle of the night. Then make a big deal about how kids can drink green milk, but if adults drink it their feet turn green (you have already colored the bottom of your feet green with a marker, then put socks on). Drink the milk, then let the kids check your feet. This is so funny, but the first year I did it, my 2 little ones cried and cried. They didn't like that idea. Hee hee.
