Boy, I miss you guys!

You should have come over for dinner!

I've been working on finding crockpot recipes so dinner is easier to put out on the table. Tonight we had:

BBQ chicken via crockpot

I placed two chicken breast without skin and topped with BBQ sauce and then a bit of italian dressing, and worcestershire sauce. It cooked on low for about 2 hours.

Leftover Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Boiled sweet potatoes. Skin them. Mash with a bit of sour cream and a bit of cinnamon.

Stuffed Acorn Squash
I used the recipe below for the idea. I've made it twice and it's so yummy!
Microwave squash for 2 min. Cut in half. Place in a dish with water faced down. Microwave for 12 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile cook onions, celery, garlic, mushrooms, and other veggie. (I have added asparagus and cauliflower.) Cook a bit of bacon. (Alissa, I only used one slice of bacon tonight! Try to be good.) Fill the cooked squash with veggie mix and top with bacon and cheddar cheese. Melt the cheese in the oven and enjoy.

Spinach Salad with apples, blue cheese, and sugared almonds with Honey Mustard dressing.

Now, this was more than we usually have on the table!

Hope this sounds yummy!
