This seafood boil is an old recipe perfect for family get-togethers. It's good and fun, and clean-up is easy. It's best made outside and served on a picnic table covered with 4 to 5 layers of newspaper. Remove everything from the pot, drain, and spread in the center of the table. Gather everyone around and enjoy the feast. When everyone has had their fill, gather up the leftovers (if there are any), put all the scraps in the center of the table, roll up the newspaper around them, and put them in the trash. Wash the one pot, and the cleanup is done. Have fun and enjoy.

Flavorful Tater Tot Casserole
This is a tastier version of Tater Tot casserole with hearty ingredients for a full meal. Made with Owens Original Breakfast Sausage, Ro*Tel Diced Tomatoes, frozen broccoli cuts and Ore-Ida Tater Tots. I like it because it is easier than shepherd's pie. My friends and their pre-teen kids love it too. Spread more cheese over potatoes before baking if desired.
Southwest Chicken Salad
Romaine is topped with grilled chicken, corn, beans, tomatoes, and onions, and drizzled with a creamy avocado ranch dressing. This is one hearty salad that hits the spot all year around.
