BBQ Chicken Pizza

Hawaiian Chicken
6 chicken breasts, 2 bottles russian italian dressing, pack lipton soup mix, jar of apricot preserves
Put all ingredients in a crockpot on high for a few hours.
Serve with rice. Top with crushed pineapple.

Mac n Cheese
2 cups elbows, 1 can evaporated milk, 1 stick butter, 2 eggs, 3 cups shredded cheddar cheese(sharp/regular/mix)
Put all in a crock pot except for 1 cup of cheese. Top off with remaining cup of cheese. Cover. Cook on low for 3 hours. This is a great one to double. Serve with stewed tomatoes.

Meat Loaf

Mix all ingredients and put in crock pot. Low=8-10 hours, high=3 1/5hrs
I also double this one.

Chicken Tacos
Wholewheat taco shells, pack taco seasoning, onion, 1-2lbs chicken, black beans, sour cream, lettuce (& any other taco toppings)
Cook onions, add cut up chicken and cook. Add taco seasoning and a 1/2 the water the packet tells you. Cook until most of the water is evaporated. Warm taco shells and black beans.

Ritzy Pork Chops
6 pork chops, stick butter melted, 2 cups crushed ritz crackers
Dip each chop in melted butter, roll in crumbs to coat well. Place in foil lined, shallow baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 min -1 hour. Can also use chicken

Tater Tot Casserole

Brown burger. Layer tater tots, then burger, then cheese. Heat soup and water. Pour over layers. 350 for 1 hour.
(Another easy one to double - except instead of 2 cans mushroom I use one mushroom soup & one cheddar cheese).

Place 1 biscuit in ungreased muffin tin making a hole to fill. Brown beef & drain, Add sauce - heat. Fill muffin cups with 1-2 tablespoons of beef mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes.
