Mexican Pot Roast is a pot roast with a spicy twist. Most grocery stores carry all the ingredients, such as pork roast, jalapenos, Rotel tomatoes, and spices. MEXICAN POT ROAST Mexican Pot Roast is a recipe that offers many possibilities for weeknight meals, including burritos, tacos, enchiladas, and more. The holidays are just a few days away, and I wanted to share a great recipe to cook in a crockpot. With some of the b-u-s-i-n-e-s-s that come with the holidays, cooking dinner is sometimes hard to get done. Around our house, my girls love to get in the kitchen a couple of days before Thanksgiving and make up a bunch, and I mean a bunch of pie crust for our Thanksgiving pies. We even prepare some of our side dishes and freeze them for the big day. With all of that going on, it is hard to put a meal on the table, so I like to cook in my crockpot.

Stew in a Pumpkin {Baked and served in a pumpkin}
Baked Pumpkin Stew is a flavorful beef stew cooked and served in a sugar pie pumpkin. When serving, raise the ladle up with the stew scraping the sides of the pumpkin being sure to get a generous serving of pumpkin. A true taste of Fall! To celebrate the Fall, pumpkin is so hot these days, and almost anything can be made with it. When I grew up in the 60s, pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread were the most popular recipes to make. These days that is not the case.

Old School Fried Biscuits {aka Camp Biscuits at our house!}
Camp Biscuits have been around my house ever since I was a little girl, then I started making them for my children on Saturday morning.

Crockpot Roast New Potatoes and Carrots {Has The Flavors of a Classic Pot Roast}
Crockpot Roast New Potatoes and Carrots are one of the meals I cooked a lot while we were in the hotel this summer as our house was being repaired. Cooking in the crockpot is more out of convenience for me than anything else, but in the hotel, we didn't have an oven so, the crockpot was perfect. I usually put my roast in the crockpot before I go to bed at night and cook it on low all night. Get up the next morning and turn it to warm. And two or three hours before serving it, I put the potatoes and carrots in and turn to high. Don't you just love these one pot meals!

Easy Fried Rice {No Need for Take Out---Make it yourself!}
Asian food is one of my husband's favorite. We usually eat it twice a month. It can be kind of pricey eating out, so I try to make our favorites at home. Easy Fried Rice is one of the dishes I have started making. It is as simple as it looks at an open grill in the Asian restaurants. Start off with cooked rice and go from there adding what you want. I usually cook the egg first in sesame oil and then add the cooked rice and vegetables. This recipe is a simple and a basic one, but on occasion I dress it up with adding cooked shrimp, chicken, or pork. Delish! This Easy Fried Rice goes well with these other Asian dishes I like to make---- Sweet and Sour Pork, Sesame Noodles , Thai Style Stir Fried Chicken , Sesame Chicken , Pepper Steak, Mandarin Chicken , and Chinese Style Chop Suey . As you can see, Asian food is a favorite around our house! This recipe and others can be seen at these linky parti...
