Las Vegas Restaurant: Hash House a Go Go
There is a lot of Las Vegas restaurants. I have no clue how many, but when you factor in everything from fast food to the fine dining, it's a lot. I would imagine that if you ate at a different restaurant every night, it would take you several years to get through it all. And probably just when you were done, you'd have another list of new ones to start with.
With that being said, if I go to a restaurant more than once, more than twice, there must be a reason.
Hash House a Go Go is one of
Crispy Garlic-Parmesan Chicken (plus our shredded chicken FAIL)
When I meal plan, I usually balance easy meals with time-consuming meals. If I know that I will be cooking for hours on one day, the next day will almost always be something easier.
This Crispy Garlic-Parmesan Chicken is an example of an easy meal I made. It was made with a new Progresso Recipe Starters cooking sauce, which was sent to me to try out. The recipe was easy and the chicken turned out good. I loved that the breading was equal parts of Parmesan cheese and panko bread crumbs. I'm not

Whole Foods & You: Putting Salad Bars in Schools
I remember the first time I heard about a school having a salad bar. I was like "WHAT??" and then thought "why couldn't we have that when I was in school!". Did any of you have salad bars in your schools? Do your children have them now? We've been homeschooling for a long time, but our three oldest children did attend public school for the elementary years and they didn't have a salad bar. Knowing how my kids eat salad, they would have LOVED it.
That's why when I heard about the Whole Foods

And since I know you want to spend your time watching the game, you'll be happy to know this is actually fairly simple, but impressive enough that your guests will think you're a genius.
Cheesy Broccoli Casserole
Broccoli and cheese are one of my ultimate comfort foods. My mom always made a great cheese sauce and I always loved having it over steamed broccoli . This recipe reminds me of having steamed broccoli with cheese sauce because, well, that's pretty much what it is, except in a casserole.
As much as I love the cheese sauce and the broccoli, there is something else I love even more: the cracker topping.
The crackers I use have a sweet memory for me. When my sister, Danielle, and I were first
