I recently joined the Secret Recipe Club, and so far, I'm really liking it! Each month, I'm assigned another blog, and I get to make my own version of one of their recipes. This month, I got Rebekah's Family Food and Fun. She's got all sorts of tasty eats. Since I knew I would be travelling right before posting day, I opted to make this recipe. I knew it'd be easily reheatable for James to eat while I was away. I'm also looking forward to trying some of her other recipes - Green Bean Casserole, Pecan Pie, Cream of Chicken Soup, just to name a few!

What are some of your favorite reheatable go to foods?

  7. Well this sounds easy and delicious. If you have a good spice shop in your area, stop in and buy some Ancho Chile Powder. I really like using it to flavor all things Southwestern.

  15. These quesadillas were easy and delicious! I haven't had much luck finding ancho chili powder - guess I just have to make my own. :) I really like the flavor it adds too.

  16. HAHA! He'd do the same thing - so I make sure the fridge is well stocked before I leave. Then he has no excuses. :P

    BTW - your cheesy green bean casserole was super tasty too!
