Valentine Cooking Class

For 2015, I am adding Cooking Classes and Freezer Meal Workshops to my business and passion.  The first one for 2015 will be a special Valentine Cooking Class.  I called it a Mom and Me cooking class with the thought that Moms and kids could come and make a special meal for Dad for Valentines' day, however anyone is welcome to come and make the meal for their sweety, family or even just themselves.  I will be doing these monthly starting in February.

February 7 at 2pm at my home will be the first class.  The menu is easy, yummy and features 4 Tastefully Simple products and recipes.  Registration is $37.00 and the deadline is January 14.

The menu is as follows:
Chicken Bake
Creamy Asiago Alfredo Potatoes
Vanilla Glazed Carrots
Black Bottom Raspberry Cheesecake

FREE Bountiful Beer Bread with registration
Bonus Recipe: Root Beer Pulled Pork

If you are local and would like to attend the class in person, register below.  If you aren't local but would still like to register and receive the products and recipes, also register below.

Fiesta Chicken Layered Enchiladas

This is a recipe in the Tastefully Simple Tonight Collection (item #100816).  I made it as a Serve It Tonight recipe, but you can also freeze this for later.  Also, I didn't have rotisserie chicken, so I cooked 3 breasts the night we had the Chipotle Chicken Fajitas so we had what we needed for this recipe.  Use what you have, be creative.  Think outside the box!

 

So, here is the finished product and you will notice I am not a professional photographer and we eat on paper plates....less dishes!  You get the idea though.  You can find the recipe here. 

Freezer Meal Workshops

Do you hear this when you get home from work?  "Mom/honey what's for dinner?"  Like most of us, I am sure this phrase is all too familiar to you!

I can help you know what is for dinner!!  We have a party option called Freezer Meal Workshops.  You gather 8-10 friends/family and meet at your house, a friend's house or even my house (if you are local).  The cost of your kit is generally between $50 and $65 depending on the menu that you choose.  This includes shipping and other items that you need for the workshop. 

Email me at kevslilbabe@gmail.com and I would love to share more information about the program and when my next workshop date is. 

Pomegranate Chipotle Meatloaf

I just love this product!  It is smoky, sweet and a little spicy all at the same time.  It is oh so good and the perfect substitute for ketchup!  LOVE!

Ingredients:
2 pounds of ground beef or ground turkey or a combination of both
2 Tbsp of Onion Onion
1-2 tsp Seasoned Salt (to your taste)
3-4 turns of a pepper grinder
1/4 cup plain bread crumbs
1 egg
2-3 Tbsp Pomegranate Chipotle Sauce
4 dashes of Worcestershire Sauce
3 Tbsp water

Mix all ingredients together, but don't overmix.   Form into a loaf and place in a freezer bag. Freeze until ready to serve or cook right away.

When ready to serve, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat with 1/3 cup of ketchup or more Pomegranate Chipotle Sauce, if desired and bake for about an hour.
