I made this to take to Thanksgiving dinner. People seemed to like it. (I got it from Facebook) No Bake Banana Split Icebox Cake Ingredients: 8 oz cream cheese, softened 1 cup powdered sugar 1 package (4 servings size) instant vanilla pudding 2 cups milk 4 cups whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), divided 3-4 bananas graham crackers (approx. 50 crackers) 14 oz can crushed pineapple in juice chocolate syrup cherries chopped nuts (optional) Directions: Beat cream cheese on medium until fluffy, add in powdered sugar. Combine vanilla pudding and milk, mix well. Add to cream cheese mixture. Gently fold in 2 cups of whipped topping. Slice bananas and toss with a little bit of the pineapple juice or lemon juice to keep them from browning. Drain pineapple, squeezing to remove all of the juice. Line the bottom of a 9×13 pan with graham crackers. Top with half of the cream cheese mixture and the bananas. Add a second layer of graham crackers. Top with remaining cream cheese mixture and pineapple. Add a third and final layer of graham crackers. Top with remaining 2 cups of whipped topping, cherries and nuts. Drizzle with chocolate. Refrigerate overnight. http://www.spendwithpennies.com/no-bake-banana-split-icebox-cake/

I recently made a quinoa bake. It was really easy… If you're good at ad-libbing there are a hundred ways you could do this.
In a casserole dish, put in your quinoa(rinsed and uncooked) and water, the ratio that's on the package. Then you can add anything you want. I used cooked turkey sausage, kale, broccoli, onions, garlic, and topped it with some asiago. Veggies were raw when I put them in, came out perfectly cooked.
I used one cup of uncooked quinoa to two cups water.
Bake at 350 for about an hour, or until quinoa is fully cooked.
Tip: I thought I put enough add-ins, but it wasn't enough for my liking. The kale really wilted down, I would probably cook the kale next time, so I could add more. I used one pound of turkey sausage, not really enough for the hungry guy I was feeding. You could always use chicken breast, or ground turkey.
You could stir in cheese to make a southwestern with some roasted corn, beans, and tomatoes.
Mediterranean with olives, feta, and tomatoes would be delicious, as well.

I've been making frittata a lot lately and not really using much of a recipe but here are the basics that I usually start with. Feel free to add in your own extras or favorites and change up the flavors. Frittata, like omelets, are very versatile. Oh, and like omelets, they work best in a non-stick or extremely well seasoned cast iron pan. The recipe makes enough for 8 appetizer (maybe 12 if you're slicing very thin wedges) or 4-6 lunch sized servings.
8 whole eggs 1/2 cup egg whites (or about 3-4) 1/2 cup ricotta cheese (I use non-fat but really good quality brand called Calabro) Salt and white pepper to taste herbs you like...I really like basil or even just a couple of tbs of pesto
Add-ins:
mushrooms, thinly sliced kale or broccoli or spinach, cooked and finely chopped roasted red peppers (they look so pretty!)thinly sliced
Pre heat your oven to 325. Heat your pan and add some butter (clarified butter or ghee if you have it...it doesn't burn as quickly as regular butter). If your add-ins aren't already cooked now is the time to add them to the pan and get them cooking down while you...
Beat the eggs and whites together until well blended then add the cheese and seasonings and stir well.
If you are using left overs as add-ins add them to the hot pan now to warm them then add the egg mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon or a spatula while the egg cooks just as you would for an omelet or scrambled eggs. When the eggs are firming but still quite wet, stop stirring and place your pan in the oven. Cook for another 10 to 15 mins. or until fully set. Shake the pan to loosen the frittata so that it slides easily out of the pan onto a cooling rack. Allow it to cool at least slightly then either serve right away, cut into wedges, or cool completely, wrap, and place in the fridge. This is wonderful served either hot or cold or room temperature.

I found this on Facebook, tried it the other night very good
Garlic Steak and Potato Foil Packs Prep time 10 mins Cook time 20 mins Total time 30 mins
Ingredients 2-2½ pounds top sirloin steak, trimmed of fat and cut into 2½-inch pieces (see note) 1 pound baby yellow potatoes. quartered (or halved if they are already less than 1 inch in size, see note) 3 tablespoons olive oil salt and pepper, to taste (I use about 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper) 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 teaspoon dried parsley 1 teaspoon dried thyme fresh thyme or parsley for topping (optional)
Instructions
In a large bowl combine steak, potatoes, olive oil, salt and pepper, garlic, and seasonings and toss to combine.
Divide steak and potatoes between four 12x12 inch sheets of foil, then wrap the foil tightly around the contents to form your foil packs.
Grill over high heat for about 10 minutes on each side or until steak and potatoes are cooked through OR bake at 425 degrees for about 20-25 minutes until cooked through to desired doneness
**If you prefer a char on your steak, you can open up the packets at the end and cook for a couple minutes directly on the grill, or for baking you can switch oven to broil for a few minutes (with packets opened). Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley and serve immediately.

Joanna’s Super-Fast Bread Recipe (Joanna Gaines) • 3 cups bread flour (makes 1 1/2 lb. loaf) • 1 cup warm water • 3/4 cup sugar ( for less sweet bread use 1/4 cup sugar) • 1/4 cup vegetable oil • 1 teaspoon salt • 1 package (1/4 ounce) bread machine yeast (1 envelope or packet of Active Dry Yeast, Instant Yeast, Rapid Rise Yeast, Fast Rising Yeast or Bread Machine Yeast weighs 1/4 ounce or 7 grams which equals 2 1/4 teaspoons (11 mL). To make this bread, it’s as easy as dump and go—just like these dinner recipes. Simply add all the ingredients to the bread maker, set the machine to “basic” and push start. Yep, it’s really that easy! Pro tip: Many bread makers recommend adding all the liquids first, then salt and the flour, and finally sugar and yeast (which you don’t have to proof for this recipe). The sweetbread makes good French Toast. The lower sugar version is better for sandwiches. https://www.tasteofhome.com/article/joanna-gaines-3-minute-bread/?trkid=soc-toh-pinterest-lp
