Bodacious Bean Dip

I used high heat to cook this, and it turned out fine; however, I think that you could easily achieve the same results just by popping the mixture into the microwave if you're short on time. It may turn out differently if you cook on low heat, but with high heat I feel like I might as well have stuck it in the microwave. It didn't feel like the crock-pot added anything extra special. 

Recipe from: "101 Things To Do With A Slow Cooker"

Servings: 4-6
Prep Time: 2 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour or 2-3 hours

Ingredients:
1 can (20 oz.) of refried beans (I used a 16 oz. can)
1/2 cup of green onion, chopped
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 1/2 tablespoons of taco seasoning
1 cup of cheddar cheese, shredded
I used my 2 quart slow cooker that I've had since college. I love this little guy and use it all of the time! And yes, I still have the original box that it came in...

Directions:

1.) Combine all ingredients except cheese in greased 2 - 3 1/2 quart slow cooker.


2.) Cover and cook on HIGH heat for 30 minutes or on LOW heat for 2-3 hours.
3.) If cooking on HIGH heat, add cheese after 30 minutes then cook on LOW heat for an additional 30 minutes. If cooking on LOW heat, add cheese last hour of cooking.


4.) Serve with tortilla chips or inside of a warm flour tortilla.


Enjoy!

Cream Cheese Teddy Graham Dip

Hey y'all! This is a sweet and yummy treat that I have made several times before. I found the recipe a few years ago in a sale paper at a local grocery store. It is SUPER easy....and has cream cheese! The hardest part is putting it in the refrigerator to give it time to cool and harden. This time I did not have any mini chocolate chips on hand, so I used regular sized chips, and they worked just fine! Also, I couldn't decide on which Teddy Grahams to use, so I bought two different kinds for dipping. This would be a great dessert for kids of all ages, or even those of us who are just kids at heart. 💗 🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻 Recipe from: CV's sale paper Total Time: 10 minutes Servings: about 10 Cream Cheese Teddy Graham Dip Ingredients: 8 oz. package of cream cheese 1/2 cup of butter, softened 3/4 cup of powdered sugar 2 tablespoons of brown sugar 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract 1 cup of mini semi-sweet chocolate chips Box of Teddy Grahams of your ...

A.1. Meatloaf

Hey everyone! Here's a recipe that I make fairly often. I'm not a huge fan of meatloaf really. This is more for the husband than anything, but this meatloaf has such a good flavor that I will eat it.

Slow Cooker Broccoli Beef

Hey y'all! Well, we've almost made it to Friday, and I've got a new recipe for you to try out this weekend!  This Slow Cooker Broccoli Beef is soooooo good. Instead of heading to that Chinese buffet, stay home and mix this up instead.  I don't recall where I originally found this recipe, but I have made it several times in the crock-pot, and it's ALWAYS delicious. I decided a couple weekends ago  to try this recipe using the Slow Cook option on my new Instant Pot®. It's supposed to cook just like a slow cooker on this setting. You keep the time and temperature the same as you would in a slow cooker and make sure that the lid is venting. I cooked the beef mixture in the Instant Pot® for 4.5 hours before adding the cornstarch and water mixture, and it worked out perfectly!  As you will see, this recipe calls for flank steak, but I have used different cuts, and as long as it is thinly sliced, it always seems to turn out good. This particular time I used bottom ...

Blueberry Croissant Breakfast Bake

Hey guys! I've got another breakfast recipe for you that I made this weekend! This recipe is from a Tasty video that I came across on Facebook. I have had it saved for a while and decided to finally make it this weekend. As you will see in my picture of ingredients below, I used Neufchatel cheese instead of cream cheese. It was next to the cream cheese at the grocery store, came in a box that looked just like the cream cheese box, and so I accidentally grabbed it instead. It did give a different taste to it, and I wish I would have had actual cream cheese, but it actually did not turn out bad.    This recipe was very easy, and if you like sweet things like pastries for breakfast, you will like this Blueberry Croissant Breakfast Bake!
