    a collage of quick and easy recipes to make this week for simple family meals everyone will love

    This Week’s Secret To Success

    These recipes are TIME SAVERS! From the Loaded Boneless Buffalo Chicken Wings that makes the best use of frozen boneless wings to the Cherry Cola Pulled Pork which can be made in the crock pot, the recipes this week are all about saving you a little time in the kitchen.

    Not to mention that the side dishes are mix and match (they can go with either main dish) so you can put together meals full of your family’s favorites.

    And I bet you noticed that macaroni is pulling double duty this week, showing up as a classic salad side dish and as a baked macaroni and cheese. That means you get two side dishes out of one grocery item- a win at the grocery store!

    Menu 1- Buffalo Mac

    These cheesy Loaded Boneless Buffalo Chicken Wings are the perfect quick and easy main dish on a busy night. This simple, short cut recipe uses breaded chicken tossed in a zesty, spicy Buffalo sauce, loaded up with melted feta & mozzarella cheeses. These wings simply cannot be denied when paired with creamy, baked Pepper Jack Mac and Cheese! Round out the meal with a Green Salad and a 5 Minute Mayo Vinaigrette

    Your family is going to love eating Cherry Cola BBQ Pulled Pork on their favorite sandwich buns with a side of sweet Southern Macaroni Salad and a heaping helping of spicy baked beans! Cherry Cola Pulled Pork a simple recipe that can be thrown together and cooked low and slow in the oven or in the crock pot. A little salt and pepper, BBQ sauce and our secret ingredient of cherry cola make for a “fall apart” tender pork roast that you’re going to want to eat all the time!
