I've been wanting some new throw pillows
for my living room. But if you've looked at them lately, you know they
are NOT inexpensive items. Eeeep!
That doesn't sit well with my thrifty little soul. So I have been
planning to make some covers for the existing ones or just start all
over from scratch. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then one day at World Market I saw some pretty cream and gray napkins on clearance. As I was thinking how they would go so well with my living room decor and how sad it was that I didn't have a dining table in the living room (ha!) - an idea slowly dawned. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I knew my pillows were about 18" square. And hmmm... the napkins are about 20" square. You see this coming don't you? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I picked up 4 of those pretty napkins. Along with a set of plain gray napkins. And made a quick stop at the craft store for some gray thread. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using a tiny hand stitch I started sewing one of each napkin together around the edges. Yes... in hind sight, I probably could have popped them on the sewing machine and gotten this part done much quicker. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>I have amazing news!!...</b></div>
<br />
If you love cherries as much as I do then you agree that this is a wonderful time of year. We can buy cherries without taking out a second mortgage. Today, I bought 3 pounds of cherries for only $6.99 at Costco and then when I went to Kroger they were only $2.99 per pound. It's like Christmas in July!!<br />
<br />
<b>I have even more amazing news!!...</b><br />
<br />
I discovered an even better way to enjoy delicious cherries. I bought this handy cherry (and olive) pitter at <a href="http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/s/cherry-pitter" target="_blank">Bed, Bath, and Beyond</a> for $12.99 and used one of my 20% off coupons. Also, did you know that the paper coupons they send in the mail, or you find in the newspaper don't expire?!? You can also use one for every item you buy. So, if you have five items, you can use five coupons, expired or not. The ones they email you do expire, so remember to use those first. Anyway, I ended up getting my cherry pitter for only $10.39 and I have already used it a ton. I just pit all of the cherries and put them in a zip top bag. It makes eating cherries so much more enjoyable!!<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">These pots are so fun for your patio, deck, or even your kitchen
windowsill!! I wanted some cute pots for my herbs and everything I found, either
did not match my colors on my patio, or were ridiculously expensive. Of course,
being the crafty gal I am, I knew this was a challenge for m!. With a little
research, <span> </span>a few Terracotta pots, some polyurethane,
and some paint, I created these gems. They are surprisingly simple and take so
little of your time. And, of course, you can paint them for herbs, like I did,
or for flowering and seasonal plants. Imagine a cute Poinsettia in a Christmas
pot for yourself, or as a gift. The possibilities are endless!!</span></div>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Allow your pots to sit somewhere to completely dry and get
that pale, chalky look. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"> Next, paint the inside of your pots and the inside of the
bottom of your saucers with the <span style="font-size: large;">polyurethane</span>. Allow to completely dry and then apply a second coat. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"> After
they are completely dry, choose the color of acrylic paint and pattern of your
choice and get busy painting the outside of your pots and the saucers. Don’t be
afraid to try out polk-a-dots or maybe some chevron stripes! I painted the main
part of my pots, and the saucers black and the rim a mossy green. **NOTE** Don’t
forget to paint the inside of your pot at the top…this will be still visible
after you’ve potted your plant. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"> Next, after your paint has completely dried,
apply a coat of polyeurethene. This step is optional depending on the look you’re
trying to achieve. I was going for a chalkboard paint look, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>so I skipped this step. Also, for my final
step, I used a white paint pen to write the name of the herb. You can also just
use chalk but remember if your herbs will be outside the chalk will most likely
wash away.</span></li>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="line-height: 115%;"> </span></b><span style="line-height: 115%;">I love the way these turned out and plan on doing more with much larger pots for a few container gardens.

We called it Refrigerator Cake, but more commonly I see it referred to as Sunshine Cake. I like that name better, because sunshine makes me happy, and so does this delicious cake! I only have a picture of a single slice, because my family excitedly cut into it, and there wasn't much left by the time I got around to snapping a pic. Yes, it's that good! Enjoy!!</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Frosting Ingredients:</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">16 oz Tub Cool Whip</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">20 oz Can Crushed Pineapple</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 Large Box Instant Vanilla Pudding</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Directions:</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Mix eggs, juice from oranges and cake mix until blended.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Add melted butter and blend with mixer for about 2 minutes on medium speed. I add the butter as a second step, so the heat doesn't scramble the eggs.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Add oranges and blend an additional minute to grind them up. There will still be very small pieces of orange in the batter.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Divide batter evenly into two round cake pans.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. Bake according to temperature and directions on cake mix package or until toothpick in center comes out clean.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. Let cool completely, and remove from pans.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For the frosting:</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Empty tub of cool whip into a large bowl.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Fold in vanilla pudding mix and crushed pineapple, including the juice, until everything is well blended.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Once cake is completely cooled - trust me on this one - don't try to frost if it is even a little warm as it will melt your frosting. I almost lost the top layer to my over-eagerness last time I made this. - frost the bottom layer, then add second layer and give it a nice thick layer of frosting all over!</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours before serving. 4-8 is even better if you can wait that long!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">**You can also make this as a sheet cake, but the layers provide more delicious frosting per bite! </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="font-size: large;">I am so in love with these green beans that I would eat them every night if I thought my husband would be okay with that, and the funny thing is, he just might be!!! They are SO delicious and even better, they only take 10 minutes to cook.</span><br />

I loved it and decided to put my own spin on it by adding some new ingredients. Try them both and then invent your own!! There are so many possibilities.</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Ingredients:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> 8 oz. white button mushrooms</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 (14 oz.) can artichoke hearts</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 bunch of green onions</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">4 cloves garlic, minced </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 medium sweet onion</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">5 cups vegetable broth</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">2 Tbsp olive oil</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">12 oz. linguine</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 tsp dried oregano</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">½ tsp dried thyme </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1/2 tsp. black cracked pepper</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1/2 Rotisserie Chicken </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">8oz. frozen cut spinach </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Directions:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Rinse the
mushrooms to remove any dirt or debris. Slice the mushrooms thinly.
Drain the can of artichoke hearts and roughly chop them into bite-sized
pieces. Chop the green onions. Slice the onion. Place the
vegetable broth, olive oil, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, green onions, onions, and
garlic in a large pot. Break the linguine in half and add it to the
pot along with the oregano, thyme, and black pepper. Push
the ingredients down under the broth as much as possible. Place a lid
on the pot and bring it up to a rolling boil over high heat. While you're waiting for it to boil, chop up the chicken (I get mine at Costco for only $4.99, you can't beat that). As soon as it
reaches a boil, stir the pot to evenly distribute the ingredients and
prevent the pasta from sticking. Add the chicken and turn the heat down to low so that the
pot is just simmering. Allow the pot to simmer, with the lid on, for
10-15 minutes, or until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid has
been absorbed. Give the pot a stir every few minutes to prevent the
pasta from sticking. Once the pasta is
cooked through, add the frozen spinach. Allow the heat from the pasta to
thaw the spinach. Stir the pot to help break up the clumps of spinach. Serve hot. This is such a light but yet yummy dish. You've got to give it a try!!</span><br />

If you're like me - you have washed
an item that should not go into the dryer, fully intending to remove it
from the load and hang it before drying the rest. Only to forget and
have it go into the dryer. Or, have someone else accidentally dry it
while trying to be helpful. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ooops!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well... no more - thanks to the best. idea. EVER.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's as simple as a dry erase marker!</div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I have mine on a pretty little ribbon hanging from my laundry shelves.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Use
the marker to write any items in the wash load that can not go in the
dryer right onto the door or top of the washing machine.. This will be a
visible reminder to you (or any other helpful little elves) moving the
laundry from the wash to the dryer to take those items out and hang them!</div>

I looked and looked... in stores and online; but found nothing that was really doing it for me. Then I realized the answer was right under my nose (or to be more precise - hanging right in front of it!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had this little shelf rack, which I used to use as a spice shelf. But I had also recently gotten a counter top spice rack so this little gem was just begging for a new purpose.</div>

It is so delicious and easy. For an even healthier option, you can just use the original 1/2 cup milk in the chicken broth mixture and then add 1 cup of water to the ingredients in the bottom of the crockpot. Also, serve it without the cheese, which really isn't a huge loss because the soup has so much flavor. Delicious!!</span><br />

<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Ingredients:</span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">3 tablespoons butter</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">3 tablespoons flour</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1/2 cup chicken broth</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">2 cups milk</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 can Original Rotel</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 can (15 oz.) black beans, drained and rinsed</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 bag (10 oz.) frozen corn</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1/2 onion, chopped</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 red pepper, chopped</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 can (10 oz.) Enchilada sauce of your choice</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1 cup shredded cheddar cheese</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Directions:</span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in flour until smooth and bubbly. Removed the pan from heat and add the chicken broth and 1/2 cup milk slowly stirring to keep smooth. Return the pan to heat and bring sauce to a gentle boil; continue to stir constantly until the sauce thickens. In a large bowl, whisk together the enchilada sauce and the chicken broth mixture you just made. Gradually whisk in remaining milk until smooth.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In a crockpot, combine the black beans, Rotel, corn, onion, and bell pepper. Place the chicken breasts on top and then pour the chicken broth mixture you just made over the top. Cover and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours. Remove chicken and shred into bite-sized pieces. Add chicken back to the crockpot and mix with soup.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When serving top with cheddar cheese or any other toppings you might like. I suggest sour cream, avocado,tortilla triangles, and jalapenos. Enjoy!</span><br />

I have never tried the homemade version but when I saw this crockpot version I knew I had to give it a try and I'm so glad I did. These go great with pork chops and are absolutely YUMMY!!</span><br />

I love them and have thought and thought and thought some more about how I can use some of them in my decor without spending a fortune. I finally found the answer......</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSbSnFnKbYr6hQoFqd8Px2vYMuu7RDjJKicwTTMeJHmkEPceMjibY2a7Zprq9_5A3lCYCmmLbl2x7nGcV22V61NB7BoQerl1pCXNzEFNUDZxPm1jvi-EMD8TfO6qs3qJziUdIfW4gBg5c/s1600/20130928_104456.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSbSnFnKbYr6hQoFqd8Px2vYMuu7RDjJKicwTTMeJHmkEPceMjibY2a7Zprq9_5A3lCYCmmLbl2x7nGcV22V61NB7BoQerl1pCXNzEFNUDZxPm1jvi-EMD8TfO6qs3qJziUdIfW4gBg5c/s320/20130928_104456.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">A DIY coat rack!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In my case, I picked up my knobs and door knob at my local <a href="http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/turquoise-distressed-metal-knob-271585/" target="_blank">Hobby Lobby</a> when they were having one of their famous 50% off sales. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Step one.</b> Decide how long you want your coat rack and find the perfect piece of lumber for you. You can find one to sand smooth as a baby's butt. I found a piece of wood with some character that had some knots and pits in it. I barely sanded it, just enough to take away the roughness, but not so much that it erased any character. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Step two.</b> Stain or paint your piece of wood. I used some paint to achieve the perfect color for me. By dipping my brush in some water before painting it created a stained look. </span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrtc12PWsinvf1rrpTjKt-3MgfIScqEw53z9U000AVpeg4fXuyHfm84vOO3M7FCthtA5-ZE995NVnW1ie1xU1aMxW2lYoFhOOueB90hhOeHCs3nMizDOQQBr-MXXCygIlOub2yJpTMYac/s1600/20130917_213728.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrtc12PWsinvf1rrpTjKt-3MgfIScqEw53z9U000AVpeg4fXuyHfm84vOO3M7FCthtA5-ZE995NVnW1ie1xU1aMxW2lYoFhOOueB90hhOeHCs3nMizDOQQBr-MXXCygIlOub2yJpTMYac/s320/20130917_213728.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You could use any color you like. I sampled many on a scrap piece of wood before deciding.</span></div>

I came across this recipe while browsing Pinterest, and since I am a caramel lover, I knew I had to try it. It was SO easy to make - maybe a little too easy. We dipped some slices of Granny Smith apples in it, and it was divine! I'm already envisioning all the other yummy things we can use it on - over ice cream, drizzled on some chocolate pound cake, and so on. I think it would also be terrific to make this, then transfer it to a fondue pot or mini crockpot and dip all sorts of fruit and cake in it like you would with a chocolate fondue. Last great idea - make it to give as a gift for friends, teachers or neighbors accompanied with some apples or a pound cake. Try it out - I think you'll agree with me that it is irresistible!<br />

Spread a thin layer of refried beans on each crust. Top with ground beef mixture and grated cheese. (I used a mixture of colby and monterey jack) I also tossed on a few black olives.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />Bake for 10 to 15 minutes at 350 degrees until cheese is melted and bubbly.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.</div>

We completed it with our favorite cold taco toppings - lettuce, chopped tomato, avocado, and sour cream.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Halloween is such a fun time of year with all the fun costumes, spooky decorations, cheesy horror movies and candy! I always do some indoor decorating for the holiday, but this year, I really felt inspired to make the outside of the house look Halloween-o-rific as well. As with many of my creative ideas these days, I was inspired by something I stumbled across while perusing Pinterest, however, the original link simply had some photos of decor that an artist had done - no instructions. I decided to use their photos as a guide to get my project going. Here's the finished result. Spooky Fun!</span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> How to make your delightfully scary Halloween window silhouettes:</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Draw or trace your designs on the cardboard. I just free-handed it, and honestly it wasn't that difficult, because the monster shapes are pretty basic. For the hands, I did trace my own arm/hand.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ8Jl1HHBOK98LDJwXjcqqeAj8655X0WRucUNJoX_HRnjXBWxNhe9qfeWz1gRkomHGX4WMsZ0O5EhhNaO_7wLFFS0cVbpaGDFlfpqrof1LhcJfVjoGt6ewse_93nSySwRbTpyy2z-VXy3J/s1600/photo-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ8Jl1HHBOK98LDJwXjcqqeAj8655X0WRucUNJoX_HRnjXBWxNhe9qfeWz1gRkomHGX4WMsZ0O5EhhNaO_7wLFFS0cVbpaGDFlfpqrof1LhcJfVjoGt6ewse_93nSySwRbTpyy2z-VXy3J/s320/photo-1.JPG" width="239" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Cut out the shapes</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Spray paint with the black paint or you could use foam brushes and craft paint. I did a couple of coats of spray paint with the cheap $1 cans of paint from Walmart.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Tape colored tissue paper to the back side of the cut outs to make the eyes and other cut out areas.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. Tape dowel rods or other
support behind any areas that need it - for instance, my googly eyes
needed it, and the little monster arms standing up also. You can find packs of these small rods at Walmart or the local craft store.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. Prop your spooky new friends in the window and wait for the sun to go down! My hubby also suggested switching the light bulbs out with colored bulbs for an added effect, but we haven't tried it yet. Added bonus, the monsters even look cute during the day!!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">** I used clear packing tape to put the hands in the window **</span></span><br />

I love a good, hearty bowl of chili and some honey cornbread. Here's a super simple recipe! I make mine vegetarian, and honestly with the heartiness of all the beans in it the meat is not missed, but it would work just as well with some lean ground beef or ground turkey added in. Enjoy!<br />
<br />
<b>Ingredients:</b><br />
<ul>
<li>1 can Black Beans, drained and rinsed</li>
<li>1 can Pinto Beans, undrained</li>
<li>1 can Kidney Beans, undrained</li>
<li>1 can Tomato Sauce</li>
<li>1 can Petite Diced Tomatoes, undrained</li>
<li>1 can Condensed Tomato Soup </li>
<li>1 bag Frozen Sweet Yellow Corn (adds the "sweet")</li>
<li>1 packet McCormick Chili Seasoning</li>
<li>2 tsp Ground Cayenne Red Pepper (adds the "spicy" - adjust to your fav level of spicy)</li>
</ul>
<br />
<b>Directions:</b><br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Add all ingredients to your crock pot.</li>
<li>Cook on Low 4-6 hours.</li>
<li>Serve with your favorite toppings (I love sour cream, diced avocado and shredded cheddar) and some cornbread or tortilla chips.</li>
</ol>

My kids love them, and they are SO easy! I recently switched from using regular yogurt to greek yogurt to add a little extra protein. I'm always looking for ways to make sure the vegetarian in the house is getting all her protein and vitamins, and while there is still plenty of sugary sweetness in this treat, it is mostly from the natural fruit and fruit juice sugars, so I feel a little better about than rather than processed sugars.<br />

I mean, who doesn't love lasagna? and who doesn't love a quick, easy meal? These recipes combine both, so give them both a try! The original recipe for this "casserole" added meat and onions to the sauce layer, but since I have a vegetarian in the house and the majority of my family does not care for onions, I made it without, and it was still delicious! This recipe can also be made in advance and frozen or refrigerated until ready to bake and serve. Next time, I think I might make a double batch, serve one right away, and freeze the other for later. <br />
