Lime and Chili Rubbed Chicken

As the weather has started turning colder I have been trying to break out all the grilling recipes I can find so that we can survive the winter without the grill. I came across this recipe on the Betty Crocker website. This was sooooo incredibly easy to make and tasted really good.
This recipe does have a bit of a kick to it, so be warned. If you don't like it quite as spicy then just tone down some of the spices a bit.

Yummy Breadsticks

So I love me some breadsticks. I think most people know this about me. If there is any type of breadstick or roll offered with a meal... I will have at least a dozen or more.
Since I don't have a Kitchenaid (YET) or a Bosch (YET) I don't really enjoy making homemade dough for anything. But I figured since I was venturing out this Sunday and making homemade lasagna (which I might add was pretty good as well) that I would top off the experience with some breadsticks.
~ The Lasagna recipe came from Our Best Bites. Their recipes are so yummy and usually not to complicated to make!
I got this recipe from my sister, but later reazlied that my sister-in-law had actually emailed out this same recipe a year or so ago. So thanks to both of u!

Spicy Honey Chicken

This is a new recipe that I tried at my in-laws house and I must say... YUMMY!!! If you haven't already become a major "Our Best Bites" addict like myself, then you should because this recipe came from their cookbook. I know grilling season is almost over, so you better hurry and try this one before you forget about it!

Grilled London Broil

OH MY GOODNESS!!! So anybody who knows me knows that I LOVE me some London Broil. I came across this marinade recipe for one the other day and HAD to try it. Let me tell you....holy heavenly!! I would have eaten the entire roast if Sam would have let me. Enjoy!

Meatloaf

Here is another classic...Meatloaf. This is also a recipe I got from my mom and ate all the time growing up. Normally it would be accompanied by the fabulous Onion Pie
The thing that makes this meatloaf a little different then normal ones, is the sauce that goes on the top. Most people just put ketchup on top, but this sauce adds a little more zip. Enjoy!

Chocolate Cake

This is one of my mom's recipes. She claims it is the only chocolate cake recipe that she will ever make, although, I know she will usually just use store bought mixes now ;) BUT I must admit this is one of my favorite chocolate cake recipes and frosting recipes.

Shepherds Pie

I happened to have a massive amount of mashed potatoes left over from Thanksgiving that I had put in my freezer. (In case you didn't know, yes, mashed potatoes freeze beautifully!) I've been eyeing them up every single time I have opened the freezer and been trying to figure out when I would use them. Then it came to me. Shepherds pie duh!
This recipe has been in my family for as long as I can remember. I remember eating this all the time growing up and it is a staple in our home now. I have not changed much about the recipe from when I was a child because why ruin a good thing. This is such a homey dish. There is just something about a big ol' pile of this that makes me feel all warm and cozy inside. I'm usually not a huge fan of casserole style meals because they just don't look that good, but I really need to get out of that mindset because they always taste good and have everything in one dish so you don't feel the need to make a ton of sides.
