let's face it sometimes we all get in that dinner rut where we just don't know what we want to cook or even what we're in the mood for so my hope for today's video is to bring you some inspiration these are my top 20 dinner ideas and they're all super easy to make super simple basic ingredients and my promise by the end of this video is that you will find a recipe that inspires you to try tonight I hope you guys enjoyed this video let's get into these top 20 dinner recipes all right y'all I think I lied before because this recipe might be my favorite first of all pizza is my favorite food group and this was the easiest one to make can I get an amen okay anyways so you're just gonna pick up a loaf of this French bread most grocery stores have it for a dollar or two and then I just like to slice mine in half and then slice it in half long ways as well I did use a couple tablespoons of butter from my fridge I'm gonna melt that down along with some garlic salt and some Italian seasoning this step is completely optional you do not have to do this and this recipe will still be delicious so I'm just gonna brush each little piece of my bread here with that garlic and butter and I'm gonna pre-bake this at 425 just for anywhere from three to five minutes because I really like for my French bread to kind of get toasty on the inside so that way it's just not completely soft before my cheese melts at the end so now of course we're going to need some pizza sauce so I'm just going to get my pizza sauce on there spread it all out and this again is another recipe you can totally customize I love this because for our family of four it's perfect everybody can have whatever they want on there so I just did two with just the cheese and then two with pepperoni from my husband and I bake these in the oven for about 15 minutes and this is so good if you have salad stuff serve it with a salad I just love any kind of pizza with some ranch so that's what we had you can hear that crust is so crunchy and crispy on the bottom yet the middle of that French bread is still soft and pillowy and it's just it is so good this also makes a perfect after school snack so when I was kind of flipping through to find what recipes I wanted to try first for this little series y'all you could not go through a church cookbook without seeing like 10 different chicken casseroles and most of them included this Pepperidge Farm stuffing mix so that's what I'm using I'm adding it to a bowl with a stick of butter melted and I'm just going to mix that to combine the butter all over that stuffing it then I'm gonna get my 9x13 dish out and you're just going to add about half of this mixture to the bottom next on top of that stuffing mixture you just add about two or three cups of chopped cooked chicken and I actually did use a rotisserie chicken this night which made this come together that much quicker I'm adding one carton of sour cream and then one can of cream and chicken soup I'm gonna to get that all mixed up together and that's going to go right over top of the chicken flare the chicken on top of the stuffing and then the sour cream and cream of chicken soup mixture goes on top of that and then next you bring back over that other half of the stuffing mix add that over top of the sour cream and cream of chicken and then you're gonna take about two to three cups of chicken broth and you're just gonna pour that all over top of the stuffing all that stuffing mix is going to soak it right up you don't want it to be dry so just kind of eyeball it and this is going into the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes and again this is so nostalgic for me because I swear my grandmother used to make this all the time after church I just served mine over top of some rice with some green beans on the side and I'm telling y'all this hit the spot this night all right so first we're going to get started with these white chicken enchiladas so obviously right now I'm just getting some of that rotisserie chicken into a large bowl so I'm just adding a little bit of softened cream cheese to my chicken and then I'm gonna add about one cup of shredded Mexican blend cheese just add that in with the chicken and cream cheese I gave that a stir to get it all combined and this is going to be our filling for our enchiladas next I'm just going to bring over my 9x13 give that a quick little spray and then we're going to roll up our enchiladas I'm just using these low carb tortillas but any kind that you want to use will be fine now I'm not the best at rolling these up but I did the best that I could just added a couple scoops of that filling in there and this makes eight tortillas which is how many came in my little pack there so that was perfect I'm just gonna wrap each one up I fold the two ends and then just kind of hold it all together as I roll it up until I get all eight in my dish all right next we're going to come over here to my Skillet and we're gonna make the most delicious enchilada sauce and it could not get any easier either so I just added a few tablespoons of butter to my Skillet added a few tablespoons of flour and we're just going to whisk that around and let that flour cook down for just a couple minutes and then next we're gonna add in one packet of taco seasoning so we're going to add in that taco seasoning kind of whisk that around as well it will look a little bit clumpy at this point but that is okay next we're gonna pour in some chicken broth and continue to whisk until all those little lumps are smooth and your sauce starts to come together we're also going to add in some of that shredded Mexican blend cheese we're gonna add sour cream and then one small can of the diced green chilies and I'll just go ahead and tell you this sauce is not spicy at all on a scale of one to ten I'd maybe give it a two like you can taste the peppers in there but it's really no slice Factor my kids loved it and I'll also go ahead and tell you my oldest said the sauce tastes just like the sauce in the Taco Bell quesadillas if you've ever had one of those it really does taste similar to that so you can see how the sauce comes together it'll be nice and creamy and smooth so next I'm just going to bring back over all of our little rolled up tortillas enchiladas and we're gonna pour that sauce right over top does this not look delicious already next we're going to top with that remaining Mexican blend cheese I also had a little bit of sharp cheddar that I went ahead and added just a little bit more I feel like I need a little bit more cheese on here and this is going to bake about 25 minutes at 350. I did Brew it the last five minutes just to get that cheese on top nice and golden and bubbly y'all this was so good like I said earlier probably one of my favorite if not my favorite white chicken enchilada recipes so easy to make especially if you have that rotisserie chicken and first up we have my new favorite way to cook potato soup so for this potato soup y'all it seriously could not be any easier it is my new favorite anyway you're gonna need one 32 ounce bag of the cubed hash browns dump that into your slow cooker I also have a frozen bag of chopped onions just gonna eyeball about a half a cup next we're gonna add in three cups of chicken broth and then you're gonna need one can of cream of chicken soup of course you can do whatever seasonings you want I'm just going to sprinkle some in a good be it because really this is almost everything in this soup y'all are gonna be so shocked at how this comes out at the end so I'm gonna give this a good stir and I cook mine on high for about three to four hours but about 30 minutes before we're ready to eat when those potatoes are tender we're also going to add in one block of cream cheese and that is it I'll see y'all in a little bit to add that cream cheese and y'all I can't wait to show you how creamy and just good this comes out alrighty so I didn't film adding in that cream cheese but that's pretty self-explanatory I just kind of cubed mine up added it in it only took about 30 minutes to melt I kind of whisked it around a little bit to kind of help it and look how smooth and velvety this potato soup is I think this is the perfect even just a base for potato soup you can kind of customize it to whatever your family likes so we're just gonna plate it up Bowl it up I should say and then whatever toppings you want we added some cheese bacon bits I happen to love croutons in my potato soup if you've never tried that I promise you should it's so good but this was delicious and this is definitely my new go-to potato recipe potato soup recipe just because it's so easy to throw together with minimal ingredients alrighty y'all got an easy one for you today so we're going to start with two pounds of of stew meat I'm just gonna get this into the slow cooker next on top of that we're gonna add one packet of brown gravy mix next we're also going to add in one of these packets of the beefy onion soup mix we're gonna add one can of cream and mushroom we want lots of gravy in there because when we get home we're just gonna do some mashed potatoes some fried okra and dinner will be ready to go so I have my crock pot on low and I'm just going to let it cook anywhere from about six to eight hours alrighty y'all our beef tips have been cooking all day they look delicious plenty of that gravy down there and I just made up some quick mashed potatoes AKA and Bob Evans feel free to make your own if you so choose but that's gonna be dinner and it's going to be delicious some of those mashed potatoes some of those yummy beef tips and these were so easy there you go easy as that beef tips and mashed potatoes is what's for dinner tonight y'all give this one a try all right next up we have chicken alfredo and I have to say this might be the easiest one in this whole video so I just have my 9x13 here and I'm just gonna dump in a whole box of rotini you can use whatever kind of pasta you want you don't even have to cook it first just dump it in the pan next I have about one to two cups of cooked and shredded chicken I'm gonna dump that in and then you're just gonna dump in one jar of your favorite alfredo sauce I'm actually using some homemade Alfredo just because I prefer it I will have that video with the recipe link down below if you want to check that out but either way dumping your alfredo sauce and then also some chicken broth and all you're going to do is give that a quick little mix and this is going to be covered and baked in the oven now I did pull mine out after about 30 minutes and checked a noodle I went and added a little bit more chicken broth gave it another stir and popped it back in the oven once your noodles are cooked to Al Dente I just sprinkled on some mozzarella cheese some that I had left over in a little bag along with some Parmesan cheese and I stuck it back into the oven just for about five minutes until that cheese got all melty I also topped it with a little bit of fresh parsley just to make it all cute and then it was time to serve and y'all I think I might do my Alfredo like this all the time especially when we're busy just because it can kind of keep warm in the oven your noodles don't dry out and people can just come and get their supper whenever they're ready I served Iris with these little Texas toast breadsticks which we absolutely loved this dinner was delicious all right first up today we have chicken and stuffing and sticker butter Rice so I'm just gonna have y'all cooking alone kind of a whole dinner with me for this recipe first I just have my 9x13 here and I had about three chicken breasts that I just cubed up into kind of bite-sized pieces and got the got those all evenly spread out in there and then to a separate Bowl we're going to take two cans of cream of chicken I really like the ones with the cream of chicken with herbs I think that's really good get that into a bowl we're gonna mix that with some heavy cream and some milk then I'm just gonna bring over that soup mixture and just pour that all over top of our cubed chicken breast and then next you're going to take one box of stovetop stuffing mix I just like to use the chicken because I'm using chicken just kind of sprinkle that all over top and then I didn't film this part but I'm adding a little bit of chicken broth over top as well and now I'm just going to cover it really tightly with some tin foil and that's going into our oven and while that is baking let's go ahead and get that Rice working so I have my baking dish I'm just dumping in some white rice then also we're gonna add one can of french onion soup or this is actually a french onion soup packet just mixed with water and then we're going to dump in one can of beef consomme and then lastly you add a stick of butter like the name says and this Believe It or Not soaks up all this liquid I honestly can't believe I've never made this before because I will definitely be baking be making this again so I'm also going to cover it tightly with full and it's going into the oven as well there I am just adding the butter I'm going to kind of give it a little stir this could not be any easier to make y'all let me know if you've ever tried this I know it can go by a few different names but stick of butter Rice that's pretty fitting to me and here in just a second when I pull out you will see how fluffy this rice is I didn't even stir it at all while it was in the oven this is the first time here it just comes right up it's super fluffy super moist and oh my goodness so flavorful so now we're just gonna plate up that chicken and stuffing I will say it was really good that chicken was nice and tender obviously super creamy and it went perfectly with that stick of butter Rice I just served it with a with an easy bag of steamable green beans and it was so good definitely a delicious meal for a day when you don't really feel like cooking this is an easy chicken fried rice and I have to tell you this was Darren's favorite so first we're just gonna again start with our Skillet and some butter we're gonna add a little bit of garlic this time and then this time I did dice a whole medium onion and we're just gonna let that saute until it starts to soften up a little bit next I'm bringing over three cups of already cooked rice that's something if you have some leftover rice from another dinner from the night before this is gonna be absolutely perfect with that rotisserie chicken we're just going to stir in that rice next we're going to bring over about two cups of that rotisserie chicken and I did chop the chicken a little bit more for this recipe and then also we're going to use some more of those frozen peas and carrots again however much you want just add those right in and we're just going to give everything a nice stir all right so here's the secret to making this dish taste like a restaurant you do not want to skip this part you're going to add a little small tiny drizzle of toasted sesame oil this sends this over the top so good and then also I had this fried rice seasoning you don't have to use this the seasoning is optional but that sesame oil is not if you don't have the seasoning just add a little salt and pepper you can add garlic onion whatever you want but we're just going to stir those all together once I have everything really combined you're just going to kind of scoot everything over in your Skillet and then we're going to add two eggs and we're gonna scramble those up over on the side and then we're just gonna mix it in just like they do in the Japanese restaurants good [Music] the last thing we're going to add to this dish is just a few splashes of soy sauce this could not be any easier to throw together and if you already have your rotisserie chicken and rice made ahead of time seriously I mean it takes 10-15 minutes and it is so good as well my husband said it tastes just like the Japanese restaurant that we always do when we're feeling to go but you don't even have to do that with this recipe and let's just talk about the price of it it is so cheap to make sweet topped ours with just a little bit of green onion and then some store-bought yum yum sauce or shrimp sauce and this seriously hit the spot so delicious first up we have a creamy tomato tortellini soup so we're going to start with just a large pot we're going to do a few tablespoons of oil in there and then we're going to saute one medium chopped onion we're just going to saute that for about five minutes or so until you get some good color on there and your onion starts to soften up a little bit and then we're also going to add in about a good a good tablespoon of minced garlic we just add that in at the last minute so it doesn't burn but give it just a few seconds to kind of open up its flavor and make this dish delicious next we're going to add in about four cups of chicken broth by the way all of my recipes are always in my description box next we're going to add one can of petite diced tomatoes and one can of tomato sauce foreign [Music] next I'm just adding a good sprinkle of salt pepper and then also about a tablespoon and a half of Italian seasoning we're also going to add some heavy cream in here give this a nice stir and we're just going to bring this up to a simmer so once our sauce has been kind of simmering for about 15 minutes you want to give it a taste and I actually went back and added about two tablespoons of sugar just to kind of balance out that acidity of all those Tomatoes then we're going to add in one bag of cheese tortellini and we're just gonna let that cook about five to seven minutes they don't really take long at all to get done and then I added one cup of cheese I'm just using this five blend Italian style cheese you could use parmesan or whatever you like and I cannot get over how quick and easy this meal was to throw together I literally had it done from start to finish within 30 minutes so time to Plate it up I just serve mine with some bread sticks Chopped with a little more cheese and fresh basil and all of those flavors together was just so good we all love this meal and I think y'all will too all right so to the bottom of our slow cooker I'm gonna try to add half this can of Rotel just spread that around as best you can alright so now I have one onion sliced and three bell peppers sliced so I'm gonna Place half of each of these in the next layer next we're gonna just sprinkle on about four cloves of minced garlic next on top of that we're just gonna lay three chicken breasts we're gonna add two and a half teaspoons of chili powder two teaspoons of ground cumin one teaspoon paprika and 3 4 a teaspoon of ground coriander we're just gonna mix everything together also I forgot to add a little pepper and salt [Music] now we're just gonna sprinkle on that seasoning mixture right over the chicken [Music] next we're gonna add the remaining Tomatoes a Rotel and then the remaining peppers and onions [Music] all right and I'm going to cook mine on high for about two or three hours until that chicken is cooked through all right so everything's been cooking about four hours so I'm just gonna shred up this chicken and the instructions on the original recipe say to Ladle out some of this liquid I guess it's more than you need it's a little out about a cup I'm just discard it and now you can either slice up your chicken you can take it out or just shred it up but I think we'll be fine with just shredding it up because we're going to put ours into tortillas anyway [Music] and lastly to a small little bowl we're just going to mix together about two tablespoons of honey and then two tablespoons of lime juice [Music] all right and then we're just gonna pour that mixture over the chicken I'm gonna toss it around a little bit we are ready to eat like I said we're gonna serve ours with some tortillas but you could just put it over some chips and do it like nachos we do that kind of thing a lot of time all right y'all here are those chicken fajitas all plated up they look delicious we like two top ours with just a little bit of shredded cheese sour cream you can also do lettuce cilantro I have a little bit of guacamole on the side you could do black olives basically whatever you want on your fajitas or tacos I think these are going to be so good I love all the fresh ingredients that this recipe uses so yeah let's dig right into these chicken fajitas next up we have this Paula Deen chicken casserole that surprisingly I had never made before I saw this all over Pinterest so I knew I wanted to try it so first you're just going to cook up one 16 ounce box of penne pasta just according to the Box directions and then over on the side we're going to make this cheesy sauce that's going to go in it so I have some butter some minced garlic some diced onion and I'm going to saute it out for a few minutes and then we're going to add about two or three tablespoons of flour and that's just going to help thicken our sauce a little bit next we're going to add some milk we're gonna whisk all that together to make sure all those clumps and everything are nice and smooth we're also going to add some sour cream and then just your seasoning of choice again I went with the Kinders I don't know why I was just filling the Kinders today for this video I guess and then also we're going to add about two cups of shredded cheese you can use any kind that you like I chose to straight up some colby jack cheese and that worked really nicely in this chicken casserole foreign I've just drained my pasta noodles and then over here I have a 9x13 baking dish we're just going to go ahead and pour the penne noodles in there and next I'm going to add about two cups of cooked chicken now since we are doing Pantry meals I actually use canned chicken I think canned chicken works perfectly in recipes like this and then next I'm just going to bring over that cheesy sauce pour that right over our chicken and noodles give everything a stir to combine really well and then you want to top with another half a cup to a cup of cheese and again you can use any cheese that you like I actually went with some pepper jack I thought that would just be really good on top add a tiny bit of spice and it was it was so perfect this just bakes in the oven for about 30 minutes on 350. again I'll have all these recipes typed out below for you and this was just the most perfect weeknight Pantry meal most of these things I always have in my pantry or my fridge how many times do we have a little bit of cheese a little bit of this kind a little bit of that kind this is the perfect way to just use that up whatever kind of pasta you have also would work really well in this recipe we just served ours up with a little side salad and you cannot get any easier but it was just perfect the perfect little dinner first up I made a french onion beef casserole so of course we're going to start with one pound of ground beef I'm just gonna Brown that up and then we're gonna add in one packet of the Lipton Onion Soup mix I think this was the beef flavor but just the regular or the beef flavor will be just fine so I'm going to sprinkle that on and also we're gonna add one cup of sour cream and then one can of cream of mushroom soup I'm just going to give everything a good stir to combine thank you [Music] we're also going to add in just a few splashes of Worcestershire sauce that's going to help deepen these flavors a little bit and honestly this sauce at this point is done you could just serve it just like this over noodles or rice even mashed potatoes and it would be delicious but we are going to take it up just another notch I think y'all are really going to enjoy that so over on the side I do have one bag of just regular egg noodles and I'm just gonna cook these according to the package directions maybe minus about a minute because we are going to put this into the oven so they'll continue to bake along with all of the liquid from the sauce and everything so I just let my sauce continue to kind of simmer on low on the side actually just popped a lid on there and just let it sit there while our noodles are finishing up cooking and when they're done of course I drain them and then just Sprout those right over and stir those into the sauce just gave everything a really good mix got all those noodles all nice and coated also at this point if your sauce and noodle mixture seems a little bit thick you can add just a little splash of milk in here and also at this point I went ahead and gave it a little taste to make sure I didn't want to add any extra seasonings or any extra liquid like I said but this time it actually turned out perfect next I just have a greased baking dish over here I'm gonna bring over our French onion noodle mixture and just add that right in and then get that all spread out also I topped ours with a little bit of cheese you could use colby jack I had some mozzarella so that's what I used I'm just gonna sprinkle on probably a cup or so which by the way all the full recipes are always typed out down below in my description box so make sure you check down there and then on top of the cheese we gotta have some of those crispy fried onions so I'm just going to add on probably a cup or so of those like I always say just measure with your heart on this we love that crunchy topping so I probably added a good bit once we have all those yummy toppings on there we are going to bake this in the oven at 350 but it only needs to bake 15 or 20 minutes all we're really doing is melting that cheese everything else is already cooked in there and this is so good y'all so easy and so quick to make those noodles are nice and soft we have that creamy ooey gooey cheese and then that salty crunch from our little crispy fried onions on Top If You Love French onion flavors this is going to be a must try foreign [Music] and this is the perfect meal to make at the end of a busy day all the flavors of traditional chicken pot pie with a tater tot crust what's not to love so we're going to start with a skillet of course I have a couple tablespoons of butter and then another little shortcut is I use some of these frozen diced onions I only needed a little bit that way I don't have to chop an entire onion I just poured some of those into my Skillet and they will saute up just like a fresh onion would at this point I'm also going to add a couple tablespoons of flour and a little bit of salt and pepper to season it up I'm just going to cook that three or four minutes to cook down that flour and the butter and this is going to be the perfect flavorful base for that chicken pot pie filling next I'm going to whisk in some milk and also some chicken broth I'm just going to kind of slowly pour it in and can genuinely whisk all that it's going to be smooth and it will start to thicken up foreign next we're going to add our veggies to our filling you can add whatever veggies you prefer in your pot pie or no veggies at all if you don't want any but these frozen peas and carrots make this so easy and again just come together so easily and so quickly we're also going to bring back over that rotisserie chicken and I have left this rotisserie chicken and kind of bigger pieces and that way it doesn't dry out as quick until you go to use it if you're not using it you know for a day or two but for this recipe I did go ahead and break it up into more bite-sized pieces once we have everything combined we're just going to bring over a baking dish and by the way I actually have this recipe and it was perfect for our family of four and we had a little bit of leftovers so just saying this recipe it does make quite a bit but we're gonna get that filling in our baking dish and then we're going to top with tater tots and I just like to put mine on and one even layer if you want to line your tater tots up and make it all pretty you can do that as well but this is going into the oven for about 45 minutes and then we're just gonna pull it out and this part is optional but the recipe I was following topped with a little bit of sharp cheddar cheese and we love cheese so I thought we would try it and it was so good the tater tots actually got very crispy even with the cheese on top it only bakes about five more minutes after you add the cheese once that cheese is completely melted you want to serve it up nice and hot this one actually surprised us a little bit I knew that we would enjoy it but even the flavor was a lot more than even I anticipated so this is a perfect weeknight super easy meal to add to your rotation we're just going to start by Browning up one pound of ground beef [Applause] well our ground beef is Browning up I'm also cooking up one bag of the refrigerated tortellini you can usually find this around your Deli area in your grocery store and you just want to get the cheese version and the directions in this recipe I'm following say to cook it one last minute then the directions they own the back of the bag I guess because we are going to bake it so it's going to continue to cook our ground beef is browned up so now I'm just going to add one jar of marinara sauce of course we love Rayos it's the best we're just gonna add that right in with the ground beef get just a little bit of water to get all that out of my jar go ahead and turn that burner off and then we're just gonna stir this all together and that pasta y'all is only going to cook about three minutes we don't want it to get too mushy and really you're supposed to use a large Skillet and add the pasta in along with this but I'm just going to combine out in a large bowl because my large Skillet is being used by something else all right our tortellini is done I'm just going to dump that in I'm just going to toss everything a little bit already looks so good and I just had a thought as well this could totally be a meatless option of course it's not vegan we're going to add some cheese and the tortellini has cheese but if you wanted a meatless option I think this would make a great one all right so let's go make our second little layer all right so I just have a separate Bowl here and I have one block of softened cream cheese in there you can let it come to room temperature I just pop mine in the microwave for a few seconds to that I'm just going to add about half a cup of ricotta cheese you could also use cottage cheese if you have that on hand we're also going to add a teaspoon of garlic powder a teaspoon of salt a teaspoon of onion powder and we're just going to mix all that together so next I just have my 9x13 you need to spray your dish put on a spray so when all it smells butter it's only a little bit it looks like a lot but I'm going to spread it all out on this dish so first going in is about half of our tortellini and meat sauce I'm just gonna get that all squared out my audience is over here eyeballing it hey hey y'all okay follow me hey y'all hey y'all I'm Paul Levine next we're going to bring over that Ricotta and cream cheese mixture and we're gonna add the whole mixture for our middle layer and just kind of spread it out the best we can how's that freshly shredded mozzarella it's delicious it's better than already shredded right out that layer then next we're just coming back on top with the other half of our tortellini this definitely reminds me of a different take on lasagna same flavors a little bit different super easy to throw together too now it's time for that mozzarella way shredded up we're just gonna add about a cup on top or however much you won't measure with your heart honey get it all the way to the sides or almost y'all does it bug you when anybody makes pizza and they put all the toppings like in the center of the pizza and you have like four inch crust that's one of those things it just bugs me it's got to be even you got to give everybody the same amount it's got to be fair next on top of that we're also going to add about a half a cup of shredded parmesan and we are ready for the oven I'm gonna get this covered with some foil and it's going into the oven at 350 for only about 30 minutes all right y'all here it is out of the oven it looks and smells delicious we're just gonna top it with a little bit of parsley to make it Purdy all right let's get this plated up [Music] all right y'all we're just serving ours up with a little side salad and some little non-bread bites that we toasted up like garlic bread looks so good all right let's give it a try hmm that is delicious really creamy perfect flavors in there that tortellini is just cooked perfectly it's not too too soft nice and cheesy came together super quick great for weeknight perfect y'all give it a try so tonight we're gonna make Swiss chicken you may have made this recipe before it's really good but if you haven't you need to try it so in my slow cooker I've just got three chicken breasts that I cleaned and trimmed up the original recipe calls for six but for our family of four three good sized chicken breasts it's plenty six will be way too much way too much so just keep that in mind but anyways I have my chicken in there now we're gonna mix half a cup of milk and one can of cream of chicken [Music] next right on top of that we're gonna add about six slices of Swiss cheese or however much cheese your heart desires although your heart might disagree in a few years but we ain't gonna talk about that this is good okay I'm not claiming it's healthy next what we're going to do is we're going to take the packet from stove top uh stuffing mix and I like the chicken flavor we're just going to sprinkle that all on top of the cheese and my camera's going dead we better hurry okay I'm just gonna kinda move that around to get those seasonings mixed up evenly all right and lastly you're gonna take a fourth of a cup of melted butter or half a stick and pour it over your stuffing mix and you want to kind of get it as moist as possible I actually melted a whole stick of butter oh Lord call the food place because I like it to be like I said to be driving a little dry pieces in here but you can also add a little chicken broth if you would rather not add butter but like I said I said it was delicious not healthy we're gonna pop the lid on this is gonna cook either on low for five to six hours I'm gonna do mine on high about two to three hours all right y'all here is the Swiss chicken cooked on high for three hours and then I turn it down to low probably for another hour but right now it's on warm and it smells so good in here it smells like a little mini Thanksgiving and it's looking good and cheesy and all golden so I'm just gonna make us some rice to put this over top and we're gonna have dinner all right it's time to eat I got my rice right here we're gonna put this Swiss chicken right on top let me bring y'all closer so you can see how yummy chicken is nice and tender down there [Music] we go Swiss chicken like I said it's like Thanksgiving mini Thanksgiving in a bowl if you haven't tried this crock pot recipe you need to try next up we have a Dorito casserole this one is so good and first I'm actually going to start by sauteing up some frozen onions I just like to get some color and some flavor on those and then of course we're going to add in our pound of ground beef and just get that pretty much browned up if your ground beef has a good bit of fat on it you'll want to drain it but this one didn't have too much just a little bit so I'm just taking a paper towel and just getting out some of that fat next we're going to add in one packet of your favorite taco seasoning and I've mentioned to y'all before the Taco Bell one I don't know we can just tell a difference I think the Taco Bell one is just the best so we're going to add that in also one can of mild Rotel I didn't add quite the whole can and then a little bit of frozen corn just gonna pour that right in Frozen and everything [Music] I did also add in some minced garlic in here not sure what happened to that little clip but added in mint garlic and then also we're gonna add in a little bit of sour cream and some shredded cheese just add everything in and give it a nice little stir and you just want to let this simmer just about five minutes just to kind of let everything come together foreign just like the other recipe if your mixture seems a little bit too thick you can just add a splash of milk so that's what I ended up doing to this and now we're ready to get it in our baking dish so over on the side first we're going to add a crust to the bottom and we're just going to be using a crescent sheet for that so you just want to roll it out and just kind of press it down gently in your baking dish and then next on top of that we're just going to take some of the regular nacho cheese Doritos and Crush that on top of our Crescent sheet you really won't know it's down here it just basically adds a little bit of flavor I'm using my gloves y'all because I didn't want to get all that orange dust all over my hands and then next we're going to bring over our ground beef mixture and just spread that all over top of our Doritos and our Crescent sheet next on top of the ground beef we're gonna add some shredded cheese just a little bit more probably a cup or so actually had Darren come add my cheese on here because in just a second we're going to add just a little bit more of that Dorito topping on top of the cheese and there's me pointing that he missed a spot I'm so particular I want my casseroles I've told you all this everybody has to have an even amount so anyway once we got the cheese on there just how I wanted it we're gonna add another little layer of those crunchy Doritos and this is going into the oven at 350. again only for 10 15 minutes just to melt that cheese and get everything combined this was so good y'all this is the perfect little switch up for taco night I love that crunchy topping and that little crescent dough crust on the bottom just adds a hint of sweetness [Music] thank you and of course you can chop this with all of your favorite Taco toppings we added a little bit of sour cream some green onion for some color you can also do some lettuce and then just a little bit of chopped tomatoes y'all have to give this one a try and let me know how you like it all right next up we have a garlic and herb pork tenderloin with veggies and this one has a semi homemade shortcut in here as well so I'm just going to start by getting our potatoes onion and carrot all washed up and chopped up we're just gonna add that to a large bowl we're going to drizzle just a little bit of olive oil in there and then whatever seasonings you like I added salt pepper and I think probably yes a little bit of garlic in there as well then next I'm going to bring over a 9x13 I'm just using this Smithfield roasted garlic and herb pork tenderloin that's the little semi-homemade item I was talking about get that right in the center then place all of those delicious veggies all around that pork tenderloin I'm also going to go in with some fresh herbs I believe I had some Rosemary and some thyme and just kind of stick those in around your pork tenderloin and this is just going to bake in your oven until our pork tenderloin reaches its perfect internal temperature and those potatoes and veggies are soft I will have the full recipe for this down below in the description box so make sure y'all check that out but this is perfect that pork tenderloin is so moist and juicy and all those veggies just add to the flavor this is the perfect fall weeknight meal so tonight for dinner I'm gonna go ahead and get started with this marinade chicken it's a super popular recipe I'm not sure if I've ever made it though I know I've wanted to I just had never done it but we're obviously going to do a slow cooker version so first I'm just gonna get some chicken breast in my slow cooker I have about four chicken breasts I'm gonna use all right next we're gonna add our seasonings you can really season this with lots of different things but I'm gonna use some onion powder let's give it a little sprinkle of that also gonna do a little bit of garlic powder we're gonna put some fresh garlic in here too so just a little bit of that let's do some Italian seasoning the good bit of that in there and then I've seen a few people use some crushed red pepper flakes I thought that sounded really good am I going to put too many I want to get too spicy for the kids but I do think that would be really good in there and like I said we are going to add some minced garlic in here as well sprinkle some on all right next we're gonna do about one cup of chicken broth just pour that all around and I know some of y'all are gonna say you're washing the seasoning off but it's not gonna matter because it's all going to cook in here together anyway it'll be perfectly seasoned we're also going to add about a cup of heavy cream I'm just kind of eyeballing it here all in there and then the last ingredient for now are just some sun-dried tomatoes these are the ones that come in the olive oil I have used the dried sun-dried tomatoes in other recipes and it seems to work fine especially in crock pot recipes where they have time to kind of rehydrate go ahead and just get some of these in try not to get too much of that oil in there but it's not gonna hurt it if you do I'm realizing maybe I should chop these or slice them or just buy the julienne ones but this is all my store had so I think it'll be fine get those in there and that is pretty much it let me grab my lid and I'm gonna cook mine on high for probably about four hours we're gonna serve this with some angel hair pasta so I'm gonna let this cook all day and I'll check back in with y'all here in just a little bit all right y'all we've been going about two and a half hours but I like to just come in and kind of flip my chicken breast over anytime I'm doing something like this in the slow cooker I guess just kind of gently stir everything around making sure those flavors you know get all over all the chicken breasts evenly and everything like that so obviously we still have a little bit of time to go so that all stirred up and get the lid popped back on and I'll see y'all in probably about another hour hour and a half alrighty so our chicken has continued cooking it's been almost four hours I believe yes it's on warm already so I'm just gonna take my little tool my little mixing chop and I'm just going to shred up my chicken with this tool it is super tender I'm barely putting any pressure on it at all and I was hoping it would kind of break up the little Tomatoes too I think it's going to since I didn't get the julienne sun-dried tomatoes so I'm just going to get everything broken up it's already looking and smelling really good let's bring y'all up a little bit closer and kind of see what it's looking like I'll just make sure I get the Julienne Tomatoes next time but I think it'll be fine they did break up a little bit I don't know if y'all can tell that or not smells so good all right one more thing so lastly we're just going to add in some cheese I'm just going to be using this five cheese Italian blend you can use just Parmesan really whatever kind that you want I think I'm gonna stir in maybe a cup sorry if y'all hear my dishwasher going in the background I want to give this a stir get all that cheese nice and melted and then over on the side I told y'all I was going to serve it with some angel hair angel hair pasta of course any pasta that you prefer will be great and my serving of angel hair pasta over here and now let's just get to this marry me Chicken on here it looks good yeah this is for one of my kids they are going off to another activity tonight so they're eating a little bit earlier you get the what we call the show plate a little bit of Parmesan cheese on top which I know you love we call these plates that I showed the show plate no picture plate and the other picture plate because the rest of us eat on paper plates so if you do that don't feel bad neither do we we do too all right y'all this one is so easy it smelled so good only took four hours to cook here y'all this one's super easy Happy Wheel give it a try I'm just gonna be using my big Iron Skillet just adding a little bit of avocado oil and I have some chopped onions I'm just gonna get that sauteing up a couple minutes this recipe says to Brown up your ground beef and your onion just together but anytime it calls for chopped onion in something like this I like to saute mine just a few minutes before I add in my ground beef or whatever it is I like just a little bit of caramelization going on with my onions also while that's working I have another pot over here on the side I'm just gonna boil up some of these egg noodles the whole package just according to the package directions all right my onions are starting to get a little bit of good color on those let's go ahead and add one pound of ground beef we're gonna add about 1 4 teaspoon of paprika so I'm also going to go in with that Auntie no nose everything seasoning just sprinkle some on all right so I went ahead and drained my meat and like I said I'm just gonna re-season just a little bit I'm sure I didn't pour off too much of that but just in case I poured off a lot of that seasoning I'm also going to add just a few little splashes of Worcestershire sauce I'm also adding one cup of sour cream and then one can of cream of mushroom soup now we're just gonna stir everything together all right I'm just gonna bring this back up let this simmer to get all nice and warm through while our egg noodles are finished and cooking up and they'll be ready to put all this together all right so you can totally just serve this over top of egg noodles but I think I'm gonna pour mine in there today and I can tell you just for making beef stroganoff in the past this makes perfect leftovers and also this is a really good make ahead meal I'm actually making mine earlier than dinner time today so I know when I'm ready to heat this back up it'll still be perfect but I can't wait so let's go ahead and fix up a plate give it a little bit of parsley just for some color on top there we go delicious dinner in only about 30 minutes and this would be a one Skillet meal if it wasn't for just cooking the pasta on the side all right that is 20
