Pizza Biscuits



These are absolutely amazing!!  I can't take full credit for them.  My sister n law Autumn came up with the idea way before Pinterest came about.  These are super easy and the kids would have fun making them too!

Ingredients
- cans biscuits (the flaky kind do not work)
1 jar pizza sauce
-1 pkg. mozzarella cheese
- toppings of choice ( I used Canadian bacon and pepperoni)
-muffin/cupcake pan (2 would work great) 
-baking sheet



Step 1:  Turn muffin tin over so the holes are on bottom. Preheat oven to desired temperature on biscuit can. Pull biscuits apart and flatten them with hand.


Step 2:  Place flattened biscuit on top of the muffin tin.  I sometimes have to shape them to the tin.


Here is what they all look like on there. This is a can and a half of biscuits.


Step 3:  Place biscuits in oven for half of the time the can says.  My can said to bake 10-14 minutes so I put my biscuits in for 5.


Step 4:  While the pizza biscuit "bowls" are baking, chop and cut up ingredients for inside of pizza biscuits.


Here is what they will look like when they have baked for half of the time. Sorry so blurry!


Step 5:  Take biscuit "bowls" off the muffin tan and place on baking sheet. 


Step 6:  Scoop a spoonful of pizza sauce in bottom of biscuit. (while doing this you need to be baking your other biscuits "bowls" if you haven't done so already.


Step 7:  Place desired ingredients in next. I used pepperoni and Canadian bacon.


Step 8:  Add another layer of pizza sauce.  


Step 9:  Top with cheese.


Step 10:  Bake for the rest of the time or until cheese is melted.  I did mine for 5 minutes. 


*I have also made these for breakfast using scrambled eggs instead of pizza sauce, sausage, bacon, green peppers, and topped with cheddar cheese!  So delicious!! ENJOY!

Awesome chili!


Here is a recipe for some super amazing chili!

Ingredients

3-4 lbs of hamburger depending on how meaty you like your chili
5 jalapenos (take out the seeds)
1/2 of an onion chopped
3/4 Catalina Salad dressing
3/4 Otts Famous Dressing
2-3 tbsp chili powder
2 can chili beans (we use Bush's)
1 can kidney beans (also use bushes)
1 jar of tomato sauce (this is used to liquify your chili because it is pretty thick)

Chop up your onion and your jalapenos (don't forget to take the seeds out of the jalapenos).  Put them in a large pot with the hamburger and brown the meat.  Drain grease.  Add dressings, beans, and chili powder.  Add the tomato sauce at your discrepancy.  We used the whole jar because our chili turned out pretty chick. Let simmer for 30 min.  Serve!!

Refrigerator Organization

I had finally had enough of our disastrous refrigerator! It was a mess. Old salad dressings, 3 containers of half eaten salsa, 14 bags of shredded cheddar cheese. I have a bad habit of buying a bag of shredded cheddar cheese every time I go to the store so you can imagine how many were expired! I was over it! I needed to fix our fridge!!

BEFORE 



I told you it was a disaster! Look at that hot mess of a fridge!  It's actually kind of embarrassing! I started with a trip to Dollar Tree and found cute black and blue bins that are two different sizes.  Would have rather had all the bins the same color...OCD kicking in...but oh well! So I bought 5 little blue bins and 4 little black bins.  I thought if I didn't use them all I could use them in my classroom or find some other use of organization with them in my house. 

I first started with the side door.  Took everything off, wiped them down and sorted it.  Boy did I throw lots of junk away!  Then I moved to the shelves.  I took everything off the shelves, wiped them off and then sorted those as well.  I decided the top shelf was going to be beverages,  the second shelf is misc. items with a bin for salsa, butter, sour cream, etc.  There is also a bin for breakfast items such as biscuits, applesauce, pudding, etc.  Our next shelf is for leftovers.  Under that we have our meat and cheese drawer.  The next drawer is for fruits and vegetables.  Yes 2 bins fit in there.  The last drawer is for meats such a bacon, hamburger, roast, etc. 
 
*My next step is to label each bin.
