Simple Mac and Cheese
Super simple macaroni and cheese to make without having to make a white sauce! I have a casserole setting on my microwave and use that. Takes only 20 minutes.
Blackened Chicken Strips
Ready in under 20 minutes, this is the perfect dinner to make when in a hurry. Spiced up by the addition of cayenne pepper but cooled down thanks to the dry ranch dressing.
Skyline Lentil Chili
Serve Skyline lentil chili over spaghetti topped with chopped onion, finely shredded Cheddar cheese, kidney beans, and Tabasco sauce. I used to love Skyline Cincinnati-style chili. When I went vegetarian, I created this Skyline lentil chili recipe to give me that Skyline taste. I use green or black lentils as the protein, whereas standard Cincinnati-style chili uses ground meat. Even though I've gone back to eating meat, this is still my preferred way to get my Skyline fix.
