Three Cheese Tortellini Skewers with Vodka Dipping Sauce

 
We served these at a birthday party recently and they were a huge hit!
 
 
Ingredients:
2 boxes prepared tortellini (I used Buttoni, found in the refrigerator section)
1 Jar of prepared Vodka Sauce ( I used Prego)
skewers
 
Directions:
Boil Tortellini according to package, but leave them slightly al dente.  You don't want them to be mushy.  Skewer 8 tortellini on each skewer and stack on a serving tray.  Heat the vodka sauce gently and serve along side the skewers!

Crockpot Freezer Meals {Part 2}

  Welcome to Part 2 of my crockpot freezer cooking series!!!         You can find Part 1, Part 3 & Part 4 here:   Crockpot Freezer Cooking Part 1   Crockpot Freezer Cooking Part 3 Crockpot Freezer Cooking Part 4 I love preparing crockpot freezer meals on the weekend.  I have plenty of time to prepare everything and get ready for the week.  Having meals prepared prevents us from eating out as much and we always have a healthy, homecooked meal ready every night! This weeks menu includes: Meatloaf with Rosemary Potatoes Honey Sesame Chicken w/ Broccoli White Chicken Chili Beer & Beef Stew Beef Stroganoff Chop and prepare all vegetables and set aside.    Label all bags with recipe title, date, additional ingredients, cook times, etc.   All meals will cook fine from frozen, but be sure not to add cold/frozen meals into a hot crockpot as it can crack. Many people have concerns about putting frozen food in the crockpot, but I have never had an issue. It is my understanding that

Chocolate Oreo Ice Cream Frappe

Image
It has been about 400 degress down here in Virginia and I decided to make a nice cool dessert after last night's dinner.  I hadn't had one of these since I was in high school in New Hampshire, and holy cow, I forgot how yummy they are!  In case you aren't familiar, a "Frappe" is similar to a milkshake, but up north, we use real ice cream instead of the traditional milk & ice method.  You could really add just about anything to this and it will not dissapoint! Ingredients: 2 cups french vanilla ice cream 1/8 cup chocolate syrup 1/2 cup milk 4 oreo cookies whipped cream Directions: Place all items in blender and blend until smooth.  Top with whipped cream and garnish with an oreo cookie!
