This week’s menu is full of family favorites perfect for a busy week! Everybody loves King Ranch Chicken with crunchy nacho Doritos served over rice, and this one skillet recipe makes clean up more than easy! Follow it up with a super easy ham & swiss quiche, hash brown casserole and apple coleslaw.
This Week’s Secret To Success
- We’re making the most of September by using up the last of the zucchini and maxing out the classic ham and apple fall flavor combo in a new way!
- Both menus feature easy cooking- one with a one skillet recipe and the other with a hearty quiche- the quintessential go-to when you need a quick supper.
- Lastly, football season is in full swing, and we’re celebrating with a hot and cheesy Jalapeño Artichoke Dip, a jazzy twist on spinach artichoke dip you’re going to love! Don’t have any plans to watch the big games this week? This dip is perfect for movie or game night too!
- Flatbread for breakfast? Yes, indeed! Especially when it’s loaded up with fig preserves & bacon. Delicious with your favorite cup of coffee!
A successful meal isn’t just about tasty or convenient recipes. It starts in the kitchen with ingredients and measurements, but it ends around the table with those you love.
So, don’t forget to make a plan for you table this week too!
Here are some of the things I keep on hand. I use many of them week after week. They make meal time special and inviting others over for dinner fun and easy.
Menu 1- Dorito King Ranch Chicken Skillet
It’s hard to resist the familiar flavors of a good King Ranch Chicken Casserole! And that’s what makes this Dorito King Ranch Chicken Skillet version a true winner! The crunch and flavor of tortilla chips and easy one dish clean up, plus the pulled chicken, Rotel tomatoes and cheesy, creamy layer you expect will make this recipe your new go-to dish! Serve it on top of easy green chile rice with zucchini squash casserole on the side!
Menu #2- Ham & Swiss Quiche
There’s nothing like the classic combo of savory, smoky ham and punchy Swiss cheese. And this easy-to-make cheese quiche takes it to the next level with a secret ingredient inspired by every great ham and Swiss sandwich to make sure your quiche is rich, velvety and oh-so, just right! This week we're pairing it with a crunchy apple coleslaw and an easy hash brown casserole recipe that doesn't use canned soup for an oh-so-perfect dinner.
