What's Sizzling on TSRI This Week

What's Sizzling on TSRI This Week? Our hottest recipes! Where else to find us! What we are up to! We finally spent a week at home, did some amazing cooking and enjoyed some down time. How have you liked the new recipes for

this week?

We took off for a quick 2 day vacay in Sedona this week. We hit some great restaurants and basically chased fall. Believe it or not, we found it. And it is more gorgeous than I remembered.
We also found winter in Flagstaff (not quite as fun). At 11,500 feet at Arizona Snowbowl it was about 30 degrees (which feels like 20). Talk about a wake up call. So I am happy to be thawed out and back in Phoenix just in time for some rain and great weather before we head to Disneyland in a few days.

Oh my gosh, and yesterday was Back to the Future Day. I have to admit I am a little geeked out over it. Chad, Munchkin and I hit the theater to see the trilogy and it was so fun. We shared through Instagram, so if you follow us there you probably caught a few pics from the theater. It was really cool to hang with a theater full of fellow geeks clapping over the date October 21, 2015. I love those movies and I realized I never saw part 3.

So things have been crazy, although the travel is fun I think we are going to plant ourselves for a month after Disneyland. I am so excited about Mickey's Halloween Party.

So, what do we need to eat? What is your favorite?

Isn't that the best group of photos? Christmas cookies, Thanksgiving stuffing, pan-fried chicken thighs, crockpot carnitas and that hottie in the center there... That is Chad. 2 years ago for Christmas I got him a NASCAR Racing Experience. So, he had the opportunity to actually drive a real NASCAR car on the track at the PIR (Phoenix International Raceway). That is the same track that we will be watching the NASCAR race at this weekend. Think they will let him drive? I wonder if I could talk to someone. LOL.

Totally freakin' excited about the race. It is next Sunday. BTW, if you are looking for a Christmas gift that will blow the ordinary gift out of the water... Get the NASCAR Racing Experience. There is usually a Groupon available to make it relatively reasonable. I highly recommend it.

In the kitchen this week... we are working on a lot of fabulous recipes. Comfort food and lots of crockpot dinners are the theme this week. Of course, Lazy Day cooking. Which by the way... Big secret (not anymore) we are working on our Lazy Day eCookBook. It will be out soon. What do you think about that?

Pumpkin Spice Crinkle Cookies

Pumpkin Spice Crinkle Cookies are an incredibly soft and chewy cookie loaded with your favorite pumpkin spice flavors. This simple recipe is made in one bowl and with no chill time will be ready in a snap! Sure to be your new fall favorite this recipe is a keeper.

As soon as the International Delight® seasonal creamer favorites hit store shelves, we loaded up and headed home to taste our favorites. Of course Pumpkin Pie Spice was on the top of my list. It is fall after all. Hello Pumpkin Spice Latte!

As soon as we tasted it Chad blurted out "you have to put that in a cookie"! I was like "you can't put that in a cookie". But, alas here we are with the Pumpkin Spice Crinkle Cookies. Chads fabulous idea and my incredibly delicious execution came together to create this outrageous cookie.

Don't worry no pumpkins were harmed in the making of these cookies. As much as we love pumpkin spice everything and especially this seasonal coffee favorite, Chad does not care too much for pumpkin. But, this Pumpkin Pie Spice Creamer is the best of both worlds. It is like fall in a cup.

We have really been enjoying family time this fall and I have to say baking cookies is one of my favorite ways to spend time with my family. Christmas music playing, the windows open, Munchkin perched on a step stool next to me. She insists on tasting nearly everything, but she is the official taste tester. Believe me when I tell you she is always ready with tasting spoons too.

Of course these cookies were a crazy hit. We tried them with frosting on them too, but to be honest it detracted from the incredible flavor of this Pumpkin Spice Crinkle Cookie. It is soft, chewy and loaded with pumpkin spice flavor. Just sprinkle with a little cinnamon and serve.

These are excellent for Thanksgiving treats and also holiday bake sales. They freeze perfectly and I will keep in the freezer for months. I pack mine in a gallon ziptop bag and freeze until Christmas. Of all the cookies I share each year, these ones will be going quick!

By now, you know how much we love their coffee creamers and have for some time (check out our 40+ International Delight recipes).

Head on over to International Delight to share how they help you capture the spirit of the season for a chance to win a delightful holiday brunch for your family and friends worth $5,000!

Enjoy!

With love from our simple kitchen to yours.

Classic Slow Cooker Stuffing

Classic Slow Cooker Stuffing starts with sausage, bacon and fresh herbs. An American favorite now comes to you in a simple crockpot recipe. With options for a simple prep of this dish you can have it ready to cook in about 10 minutes. Now, you can't beat that! Classic Slow Cooker Sausage Herb Stuffing that is bursting with flavor is sure to be the star of the show. Sorry turkey!

It is almost Thanksgiving and all I can think about is the stuffing. I know I shared my stuffing love affair with you a few weeks ago with our fabulous Sausage, Cranberry, and Apple Stuffing recipe. It really is my best ever all time favorite stuffing. But, honestly not everyone wants 'fancy' stuffing. I get that. So with all the requests we have been getting for crockpot recipes for Thanksgiving I recreated a family classic.

As long as I can remember (and for many years before I knew them) my mother-in-law Gigi has been making a classic midwestern/southern stuffing with sausage and bacon. Some years it would be sausage only, but honestly my favorite was with a double helping of the pork.

Knowing y'all are begging for slow cooker recipes to simplify your life, I recreated a family favorite. Classic Slow Cooker Stuffing starts with sour dough bread, sausage, bacon and fresh herbs. It is destined to be the star of the show. It's so good that we ate it for dinner last night.

If you are in a time crunch, try substituting out store bought plain stuffing cubes, precooked sausage links (chopped) and bacon crumbles. It cuts the prep time to about 10 minutes. With a stuffing recipe this fabulous you will be making it over and over.

Speaking of simple recipes, of course our new cookbook {The Simple Kitchen - available to order now}is packed with delicious, easy recipes. The Simple Kitchen is loaded with more than 75 BRAND NEW recipes and a hand full of family favorites too.

8 chapters with a total of 82 quick and easy recipes that are bursting with flavor!!! Every recipe has a photo that will make your mouth water. It has slow cooker meals, one-pot recipes, quick dinners, simple appetizers, desserts and more!!! And we have included kitchen tips to make dinnertime less stressful.

We are so excited to share our recipes with you!!! So, don't wait. Go and grab yours today! The Simple Kitchen <-- click here to order.

WHERE TO ORDER:

🔥 Amazon 🔥 Barnes & Noble 🔥 Books-a-Million 🔥 IndieBound

Helpful Tips to make Classic Slow Cooker Stuffing:

Fresh herbs give the dish incredible flavor, but if you must substitute cut recipe in half and use dried herbs. Be sure to crunch them in your hand as you add them to help release the fragrance of the herbs.
To leave the stuffing warming for up to 2 hours, stir occasionally and add more chicken stock over stuffing to keep moist.
If you prefer celery in your stuffing add 1 cup chopped celery to the skillet with the shallots. Cook until shallots are translucent. Proceed with recipe.
*If you are in a time crunch, try substituting out store bought plain stuffing cubes, precooked sausage links (chopped) and bacon crumbles.
This dish was prepared in a 5 quart oval crock pot.

What you will need to make Classic Slow Cooker Stuffing:

Jelly Roll Pans (baking sheets with sides) - used for everything from cookies to roasting, a good baking pan will last for years.
Slow Cooker - the slow cooker is almost my most used kitchen appliance, especially during fall/winter! It's just so convenient, and lets face it, it makes comfort food taste even better!

Enjoy!

How to Clean Your Top Load Washing Machine

We have all the tricks on How to Clean Your Top Load Washing Machine and get rid of that funky smell and make it clean as new. With tips for maintaining your washer and dryer and extending the life of your machines, this is a must read!

With hints to make your washer and dryer last a long time we are so excited to be partnering with Lowe’s on this project.

It has been amazing sharing our recipes and our travel with you. We are thrilled to take you along on our home projects too! The awesome $350 giveaway details will follow the article.

GIVEAWAY CLOSED. AND THE WINNER IS.... RUSTY (SARAH) HOLMGREN

We moved into our home about 10 years ago and bought it with all appliances included. They were 6 years old at the time and kind of mismatched but they all worked. So we decided we had better figure out how to take care of them to make them last.

After some research and trial and error Chad came up with a great routine for maintaining the washer and dryer. But then life got hectic, and as it goes we stopped the routine until one day early this fall. Let me step back a few months. We had a jet setting crazy summer. We would be home long enough to do our laundry and pack for our next trip.

By the end of summer when things settled down we were noticing our towels and clothes smelled odd. Kind of funky, you know what I mean? I couldn’t put my finger on it so Chad started using more detergent, washing in a hot cycle and hoping that would help. It didn’t.

Then we remembered it had been a while (who knows how long) since we did our maintenance routine. So Chad gave it a shot and I have to tell you, after battling with funky smelling laundry the relief you feel to grab a towel and bury your nose in it to enjoy the freshness is such a gift.

So, I am sure you are asking what how did he do it? Yes he! Chad does the laundry. I know. Lucky girl {{{gush}}}. It’s easy and keep reading for tips on maintaining your dryer. Maybe yours will last 16 years too.

To clean your top load washer you will need:
•    scrub brush
•    cleaning cloth
•    cotton swabs
•    4 cups (1 quart) regular bleach
•    4½ cups (1 quart + ½ cup) white vinegar

I am sure it goes without saying, but you want to remove all clothes from the washer before cleaning it.

Start by cleaning your washer’s exterior. Mix 1 cup of hot water and ½ cup vinegar. Using a clean cloth dampen in vinegar solution and wipe down all surfaces with cloth. Put some weight into it. Use a little elbow grease to really clean the knobs well.

Open the top and wipe down the inside of the lid. Sometimes dirt and soap splash the lid leaving a build up of grime. Use cotton swabs to get in the crevices. Remove any bleach or fabric softener dispensers (when possible) and scrub the dispenser with your scrub brush dipped in the vinegar solution. Use your scrub brush to clean the agitator and take a peek at the top of the wash bin. Use a cloth to clean this area.

Set your washer to the hottest setting, the largest load and the longest wash and spin cycle. Let the washer fill with hot water and add 4 cups bleach. Allow the washer to agitate for 2 minutes and then turn the washer off and let it sit for 1 hour. Head out to the kitchen and try 2 of our 30 minute meals, I mean you have an hour to kill. After an hour turn the washer back on and let it finish the cycle.

After the first cycle has finished turn the washer back on and fill with hot water once again. Add 4 cups vinegar. Allow the washer to agitate for 2 minutes and then turn the washer off and let it sit for 1 hour. Go watch a couple DVR’d episodes of your favorite show. Duck Dynasty and Walking Dead are my personal fav’s. No point in hanging around the laundry room. After an hour turn the washer back on and let it finish the cycle.

You now have a clean as new washing machine, ready to be put to the test! We cleaned out our laundry room while we were cleaning our machines. Do you know how many things we had in there that we haven’t used in 5 years??? A whole box full! Not to mention the farm of dust bunnies behind those unused product. ACK!

Additional tips for maintaining your washer and extending the life of your machine:
•    The cleaning routine should be repeated monthly for best results. Repeat routine at least every 3 months to prevent build up.
•    If you live in a hard water area you will want to perform this routine monthly. Hard water and lime can build up in your machine and your lines causing things to run inefficiently.
•    It is recommended that you replace your washer hose every 3-5 years. This is something you want to put on your calendar (or on a note in your laundry room) I have had to clean up the mess from a busted washer hose before, it’s not fun.
•    Do not overload your machine it causes the machine to run inefficiently and puts strain on the motor.
•    Shake your clothes out before placing in the washer.
•    Make sure your machine is level; the vibration can cause “walking” of the machine which can damage the floor and objects around it. Additionally it can cause additional strain on the machine.
•    Leave the lid open. It will allow the drum to dry completely and prevent mold and mildew odors from developing.
•    Be sure to turn off the water when you leave on vacation. Hoses are constantly under pressure and a busted water hose can cause severe water damage to your home while you are away.

Tips for maintaining your dryer and extending the life of your machine:
•    Always shake your clothes out before placing them in the dryer.
•    Do not overfill, it causes additional strain on the machine
•    Empty the lint trap after every load.
•    Monthly (when you clean the washer), remove the lint trap and scrub with a soft brush and gentle dish detergent to remove any residue. An unclean lint trap can block air flow. Dry completely before returning to dryer.
•    Every six months pull the dryer out and unplug it. Vacuum out the lint trap and the wall and the floor behind the dryer. Disconnect the vent and piping and check the airflow to the outside for obstructions. Proper airflow helps with the longevity and efficiency of your dryer.

Easy peasy! So, then we had a beautiful, clean and perfectly functional 16 year old washer and dryer set. But, sometimes you just want something new. So, needless to say the new owners of our washer and dryer were very happy with them.

We are so excited to be able to tell you about our new LG 3.6 cu ft High-Efficiency Front-Load Washer and LG 7.3 cu ft Electric Dryer! They arrived about 3 months ago and we are so thrilled with them. OK, OK. Chad is so thrilled with them, but I like I said they are so pretty and play a cute tune when the cycle is done.

I honestly did not realize exactly how little water they use. Wow! My daughter is amazed too, she sits in front of the washer and watches it spin. Too cute. Bonus for mom and dad; the front load is perfect for teaching her to help with the laundry too. Triple score!

Seriously though, once we cleaned out the laundry room and got the new set we knew we had to redo the room. So, we headed over to Lowe’s and picked up some paint and flooring. We painted and re-floored the room and then put in the new washer and dryer. It’s so nice I might even start doing laundry. Nah! Who am I kidding? That’ll never happen.

The great news; Lowe’s is giving away a $350 Lowe’s Giftcard to one lucky reader! That is certain to make your next home improvement project a whole lot easier.

Bacon Beer Cheese Stuffing (With Video)

Bacon beer cheese stuffing will kick your side dish game to the next level! Classic stuffing spiked with citrus beer, savory bacon, and cheddar cheese.

When it comes to comforting side dishes, this Bacon Beer Cheese Stuffing hits all the marks. And by marks, I mean the three crucial flavor profiles that simply make any dish better.

First, there’s the bacon. Because, well… bacon. I don’t think I really need to sell you on the deliciousness of bacon, but if I do, just imagine everything amazing about savory meats in the form of a crispy culinary treat. It just makes everything better, and there’s a hefty portion of it in this stuffing.

Then, there’s the beer. Beer has a way of adding a ton of depth to the flavor of a recipe, and especially when used in conjunction with meats like bacon. Even if you’re not a fan of drinking beer you may love it’s when cooked with the right ingredients. I opted to use Blue Moon in this recipe, and the hints of citrus really made the flavor pop.

And, finally, there’s the cheese. I don’t know about you, but I’m always looking for new ways to add cheese to my life, and what better way is there than baking it in a dish that’s 90% French bread?

I certainly can’t think of any!

All fangirl-fawning over the ingredients aside, I must admit that this stuffing recipe surprised me with how good it was. I grew up enjoying the more “traditional” forms of stuffing, which usually meant a lot of bread with a little bit of seasoning. And don’t get me wrong – there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. Classics are classics for a reason. Stuffing doesn’t have to be a wallop of flavor for it to still be good.

This recipe may be a bit more time-intensive (due to cooking up all that amazing bacon) but since you don’t use the bacon grease in this recipe, you can also opt to use pre-cooked bacon. I know not everyone is a fan, but it can be a great alternative in a pinch. I’ve used pre-cooked bacon in many baked dishes and still loved them just as much.

So if you’re ready to take your side dish game to the next level for your next dinner, holiday, or rainy Sunday, this stuffing is more than worth a walk on the wilder side.

We are talking bacon, beer, and cheese, after all.

How can you go wrong with that?

What you will need to make Bacon Beer Cheese Stuffing:

A large skillet with a lid – To help the pasta cook evenly, a wide skillet works best, ideally one that’s more than 12 inches in diameter.
Mixing Bowls - I like a variety of mixing bowls and prep bowls and this set has them all.
9x13 Baking Dish - I have my favorites and this set is one of them. The 9x13 is perfect for casseroles and the smaller size is awesome for making 1/2 a casserole recipe.

Cheesy Bacon Green Bean Casserole

Cheesy Bacon Green Bean Casserole ain't your grandma's recipe! This modern take on the classic recipe features green beans in a rich and creamy bacon mushroom cheese sauce that will change Thanksgiving forever! Cooking from scratch has never been so easy.

We are so excited to be partnering with our friends at Jones Dairy Farm to bring you a scrumptious slow cooker meal perfect served for breakfast, Brinner or even as a perfect side holidays with family and friends, starring one of my favorite ingredients: Bacon!!!

You know growing up the 'traditional' green bean casserole was not a tradition in my house. My mom made a lot of scrumptious side dishes on the holidays but not the oh so popular green bean casserole. When I moved out to Arizona, Chad and I would spend the holidays with his family. Every holiday there was a green bean casserole.

Let's just say that his family loved it and there was never a bite left.

Years later the idea of a green bean casserole came back into my mind, but I started thinking about how I could completely revamped the famous semi-homemade version into modern rendition of the green bean casserole that will change your life and the way you do holiday dinners!

It all starts with that heavenly bacon. After it is fried and set aside, the entire dish is built on the bacon. Starting with the mshrooms and onion sauted in the bacon drippings. Then the cheese sauce is built on top of that. It just gets better and better. We used thawed frozen green beans for convenience, but you can use fresh if they are available. Just blanch them first.

To finish off this masterpiece, we have opted for crisp bacon for the addictive crunch that you are familiar with, but with so much flavor! This recipe completely redefines green bean casserole. It is sure to be on our Thanksgiving table year after year.

I will let you all know that you can pick up Jones Dairy Farm products at your local retailer. The company’s products are distributed nationwide, so be sure to check out their product locator so see where you can pick some up.

Cheesy Bacon Green Bean Casserole

Cheesy Bacon Green Bean Casserole ain't your grandma's recipe! This modern take on the classic recipe features green beans in a rich and creamy bacon mushroom cheese sauce that will change Thanksgiving forever! Cooking from scratch has never been so easy.

prep time: 20 Mcook time: 40 Mtotal time: 60 M

Ingredients

1 pound Jones Dairy Farm Dry Aged Hickory Smoked Bacon, cut into 1/2"-3/4" pieces
8 ounces sliced baby bella (aka crimini) mushrooms
1/2 medium yellow onion, sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour *see gluten-free notes
1 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1-2 pinches red pepper flakes, to taste
2 cups whole milk
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
24 ounces frozen green beans, thawed

Instructions

How to cook Cheesy Bacon Green Bean Casserole

In a cold large (12") cast iron skillet add bacon. Turn heat to medium and cook until crisp. Stirring occasionally. This will take about 25 minutes. See the shortcut method if you want to make this quicker.
Remove bacon from the skillet with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel lined plate. Set aside. Pour bacon drippings into a jar to save for later use and return 4 tablespoons bacon drippings to the pan.
Return skillet to medium heat. Add mushrooms, onion and garlic. Cook the vegetables until they are browned, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add 2 tablespoons bacon drippings, into the pan (or butter if you are out of bacon drippings). Add flour, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir until the flour dissolves into the vegetables. Cook 1 minute to cook out the floury taste.
Add milk and stir to combine. Remove from the heat, add the cheese a handful at a time and stir between each addition. Once the cheese is completely melted into the sauce add green beans and half of the cooked bacon. Stir to combine, cook until green beans are warmed through, about 2 minutes. Top with remaining bacon.
Serve and enjoy!
