Pizza Style Potato Cakes
Welcome to another addition of Recipes from Our Dinner Table.
Today we’re featuring some of our favorite potato recipes. I’m a big fan of potatoes. We eat them at least one a week.
I can’t say that I have a favorite potato recipe. I’m a fan of them all.
Sometimes my eyes are bigger than my stomach. I’ve been known too make too many mashed. Crazy right? How is THAT possible! Ha.
Rest assured that those spuds will not go to waste.

It’s quick, easy, and full potato taste.

Chili Cheese Beef Brats

Posted on January 29, 2019 by Cindy Kerschner

Chili Cheese Beef Brats serve juicy smoked brats, cheddar cheese and homemade chili on a toasted potato roll. A tasty, quick meal for game day. No beans about it! Really there are no beans in here.

Chili Cheese Beef Brats

It’s almost time for the Big Game! If you’re throwing a party or just don’t want to miss any action, a quick meal is in order.
I prefer smoked brats over hot dogs any day. Add some cheese and chili and you have a hearty game day meal.
I’m adding a simple chili recipe but canned or store bought saves prep time. Of course you could make a batch and freeze it. Just in case you get snowed in!

Stuffed Country Chicken Breasts

Posted on January 27, 2019 by Cindy Kerschner

Stuffed Country Chicken Breasts serve savory bread stuffing inside tender chicken. Top it off with country milk gravy.

Stuffed Country Chicken Breasts
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Around here it’s difficult to get dinner reservations to our favorite places. Probably because I procrastinate when it comes to making reservations!

Truth be told, a cozy meal at home is always on my radar. One of my guy’s favorites is my homemade stuffing and chicken with country milk gravy. I confess I like it too. It’s simple to make. It tastes great. Plus I know what’s in it.
I am a snob when it comes to stuffing. I’m not big on surprise flavors and textures. I’ve been making slightly different versions of this stuffing for many years.

Stuffed Country Chicken Breasts

It’s easy to make your own stuffing. You can make it as moist or dry as you like! No surprises!
