Slow Cooker Loaded Baked Potato Casserole

Do you like loaded baked potatoes?  Seriously I don't know anyone who doesn't like loaded baked potatoes, and this recipe is ahhhhmazing!

This is about the easiest and most awesome recipe I have ever made. It truly tastes like a loaded baked potato, without all that butter! If you are anything like me, those commercials that had the peeps walking around with a whole stick of butter coming out of the potato and said "yum" instead of "gross", well this recipe is for you! It is so rich and decadent!

Ingredients:
3 pounds Red Potaoes, diced into bite sized pieces
2 cups your prefered type of cheese (I like the way colby and Jack cheddar melts)
2 Tablespoons Wildtree Creamy Ranch Dressing & Dip Mix
6 Pieces bacon (cooked crisp and cut into pieces)
3 Green Onion

Method of prep:
Line your slow cooker with foil. Be sure to leave extra foil as you will be completely covering your potatoes with the foil so that they steam.

Add your potatoes, Ranch Dressing, 1 1/2 cups of your cheese, green onions, and crumbled bacon to crock. Mis together thoroughly. Wrap up with extra foil, cover, and cook on High for 4 hours or Low for 7-8 Hours.

When you have 15 minutes of cook time left. open crock pot and add remaining 1/2 cup cheese to the top. Cook last 15 minutes with lid on, foil open.

You can top with sour cream if you like. It is so good. Like magically good. Like I better only make this once a month good because I will want to eat the entire thing good.

You can sub another brand for the Wildtree Creamy Ranch Dressing & Dip Mix, but I Love my Wildtree :)

Make a DYI Pumpkin Cooler!

I'll be the first one to admit that I am more likely to be on a Pinterest Fail page than one of the top rated crafts. I can hold my own when it comes to creativity, but I really lack the patience it takes to follow complicated directions unless I am extremely motivated, hence the Pinterest Fail Remark.

So when faced with the how to keep my awesome Greek Chicken Salad cold at a Halloween inspired party in a cute way I put that creativity to work.

You'll need to start with your pumpkin. I knew what sized bowl I would be using, so I took it with to be sure it could fit inside the pumpkin with room to spare. Once you have picked out your pumpkin, clean it out thoroughly, scraping the sides a bit more than if you were just going to carve it.

Line your pumpkin with something that will keep the moisture from melting ice away from your pumpkin. I picked up this Halloween plastic tablecloth for a dollar at the dollar store. Push down inside pumpkin making sure you have plenty of hang over on all sides.

*First timers lesson* If you are goin to decorate the outside with paint, markers or stickers, you want to do it now. It is not easy to do once the pumpkin is frozen.

Place your pumpkin in the freezer and add water. You will need to fill it about 1/4 of the way up. You may need more or less, and you'll be able to tell once you place your bowl in the pumpkin, but a good rule of thumb is 1/4

Place your bowl inside the pumpkin, gently pushing down so that the water rises around it. You will need to weigh the bowl down. I used my small crock pot insert, and when that wasn't enough I added a can of peanuts. Whatever works, right? You do not want the bowl to hit the bottom, so make sure you don't put to much weight in the pumpkin. It took about 4 hours for mine to freeze solid, and I checked on it after 2. Depending on the size of your pumpkin it may be take longer, but be sure to check that your bowl isn't being pushed up or crooked. Once frozen you can leave it in there until it is ready to be used!

*First timers lesson #2*: Be sure your pumkin is level. I have the bottom freezer and when I pushed the drawer back in it tilted a bit.

I then trimmed the plastic tablecloth, added my Greek Chicken Salad, and took to the party! I don't think the ice even melted at all after 5 hours! Pumpkins make great coolers - who would have thunk it? Once it does start melting there is no reusing - it will deflate like a balloon.

Roasted Red Pepper & Sausage Alfredo

When I was a kid a million years ago we always sat down at the table and ate dinner together.  Eating out was a rare occurrence reserved for birthdays and good report cards.  It didn't hurt that my Mom was a list maker extraordinaire. 

She would meticulously plan our meals, make grocery lists for just those meals, and stayed on plan.  I am no where near being that organized, and if I made a list I'd probably lose it.  In this fast-paced world it is hard to keep up with everything and be an organizer extraordinaire.

That's why I love our Simple.Healthy.Dinner. bundle that comes out each month.  You get everything you need from the grocery list to the step-by-step directions on how to prepare the meals with pictures!  Wildtree is super concerned about their carbon footprint, so these lists are electronic so you can either print them or use your electronic devices to view them!  

Did you know that: The average family’s eating habits over the course of a week generally look like:

• 1-2 days a week, families are going out to eat, spending way too much for generally unhealthy food, just because it is convenient!
• 2 days a week families are eating leftovers, or taking the easy way out with plain old grilled cheese or ramen noodles.
• Only 3-4 days a week are families taking the time to sit together and have a home cooked meal.

Once a month, you can order Simple. Healthy. Dinner. as one item number, which contains:

-      8 Amazing yet simple, complete recipes, all under 600 Calories

-      Step by Step image break-downs for each!

-      A bundle with all of the products to make all 8 recipes
