Sopapilla Cheesecake

I made this last weekend while Colt was studying for his biochem test. This is his favorite dessert and he can usually eat a whole one by himself .. no problem! I just split the recipe and made half last weekend.

And this is what it looked like the next morning! And this was all by himself. I had none besides a little while I was mixing and making it! He ate some before bed and got up and ate almost the rest of the pan for breakfast. This definitely doesn't last long around our house!

This is the complete recipe, but it's really easy to half.

Ingredients:

9x13 pan

2 pkg. crescent rolls

2 8 oz. soft cream cheese

1 cup sugar

1 stick butter

2/3 cup sugar (I only use about 1/3)

cinnamon

Pat out 1 pkg. crescent rolls over bottom of pan. Mix cream cheese and 1 cup sugar and spread over rolls. Cover with other pkg. of crescent rolls. Pour melted butter on top. Sprinkle 2/3 cup sugar (I only use about half) and as much cinnamon as you want on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

This is really good. Colt's best friend, Gerald, usually requests one when he comes to our house to visit too. I took it to their graduation party this past summer, and they hid it so noone else could have any. Colt is serious when it comes to his sopapilla cheesecake and regular cheesecake!

Easy Enchiladas

I make these a lot during the week because they are so fast and easy.. and really good too! It's our go to a lot when we get home late from work/school. A lady that my mom used to work with passed the recipe on to her and she passed it onto me.

Easy Enchiladas

Ingredients:

1 pkg. 16 oz. Chicken or Beef taquitos (all I've ever tried is chicken & I buy the Delimex brand and I just use as many as I can single layer into a 9x 13 pan)

1 jar Ragu Cheesy Alfredo Sauce

1 small can green chilis

shredded cheese

Spray pan & put in taquitos. Pour alfredo sauce in mixing bowl. Mix a little milk in sauce (just enough to get out of the jar). Mix green chilis with sauce & pour over taquitos. Then top with cheese & bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

Ritz Chicken

I'm trying to add recipes on here when I have time, and I hope to eventually have most of my recipes transferred over to here!

This is an easy recipe that I got from Caylin Taylor, Colt's roommate for a semester in college. It's really good, and it's fast and easy to make. Colt likes to dip it in ketchup, but I like it by itself.

Ritz Chicken

Ingredients:

Egg (to dip)

Ritz crackers (I usually use about a sleeve, just enough to coat the chicken)

Garlic Salt

Chicken (3-4 chicken breasts)

Melted butter (about 1 stick)

Break Ritz crackers in pieces and add garlic salt to taste.

Dip chicken in egg, then dip in Ritz crackers to coat. Pour melted butter over chicken and back at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
