Pizza Cups

This one came from a kids cookbook.

Pizza Cups

Ingredients:
2 cans refrigerated biscuits
1 lb. ground beef
1 jar pizza sauce
1/2 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Preheat oven to 375. Spray two muffin pans with nonstick spray. Press a biscuit evenly into muffin cups (cover bottom & sides). Chill until ready to fill.

Brown ground beef, drain. Stir in pizza sauce and heat through.

Evenly spoon beef mixture into muffin cups. Bake 15 min. Sprinkle with cheese and bake an additional 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and biscuits are golden. Let stand 5 minutes. Gently remove pizza cups from pan.

I served this with raw carrots/cucumbers, mandarin oranges.

Our Review: We all really liked this one. The girls said it tasted just like pizza. I think I'll try to add pepperoni pieces and black olives to it next time!

Crescent Cheeseburgers

This recipe comes from Robin, thank you! Brooke liked this when she had it at Robin's house so I thought I would try it out here at home.

Crescent Cheeseburgers

Ingredients
1 lb. 93% lean ground beef
1/4 cup catsup
1/4 cup chili sauce
3 Tbsp dry onion soup
salt/pepper
4 slices of american cheese
2 tubes of crescent rolls (red. fat)

Directions
Brown hamburger, drain. Add catsup, chili sauce, onion soup, salt/pepper to hamburger. Let simmer for about 10 min. Unroll crescent rolls and put a spoonful of meat mixture on biggest part of roll and then place 1/4 slice of cheese on top of meat. Roll crescent around meat/cheese. Bake at 375 on ungreased cookie sheet for 12-17 min. Number of Servings: 16

We had raw veggies (carrots, cucumbers, celery) and grapes and banana pudding with banana chunks with this.

Our Review: These were GREAT! Everyone ate at least a bite (Lexy) and said that they liked them. Mike ate 10 I think, pig!!! This recipe will definately go into the recipe box!

Another fun one - Nacho Flower

We had a nacho flower for dinner tonight. Cute and yummy!

Just beef, refried beans, cheese, black olives and tortilla chips.

A fun idea - popcorn chicken kabobs

This is Brooke's favorite thing to make and eat for dinner. I think it's time consuming but it is VERY kid friendly!

We baked the popcorn chicken in the oven and then used wooden sticks to put on the chicken, pineapple chunks, purple seedless grapes, and cherries (rinse or you'll have red all over everything!). You could use whatever you have on hand.

We served this with Lipton Noodles, chicken flavor and raw carrots/celery.

For dessert Lexy and I made peanut butter cup "blizzards". Just vanilla ice cream, cut up pb cups and a little milk in the blender/food processor!
