Garlic Butter Mushrooms

"These roasted mushrooms are perfect if you're hoping to transform bland mushrooms into a flavorful side dish! My favorite way to serve these is with a juicy grilled ribeye. You can use any oven-proof skillet or dish; use a size that's just big enough to fit all the mushrooms."  Comment from All Recipes

Stuffed mushrooms are one of my favorite appetizers and these look delicious.  I would have to find a way to add crab!

Tamale Pie

"Tamales are a traditional Mexican dish often made on special occasions, like New Year's Day. This twist on the classic is made with corn muffin mix so it's even easier to make."  Comment from The Pioneer Woman.

There aren't enough texmex type of recipes on my blog and they are some of my favorites.  This one is semi-homemade which is a good thing.

"This Bisquick chicken and dumplings recipe is made in minutes but tastes like it’s been simmering all day. With a ready-made soup base, cooked chicken, and veggies, Bisquick chicken and dumplings deliver creamy, cozy flavor in every bowl."  Comment from centslessdeals.com.

There are many chicken and dumplings recipes on my blog since they are one of my favorites and I like to have lots of versions, especially one that is semi-homemade.  Love Bisquick meals!  Between Bisquick and a rotisserie chicken, that is saving a lot of time in the kitchen.

Potato Stacks

"They're like mini scalloped potatoes!

Love the crispy, golden top of scalloped potatoes? Then these cheesy potato stacks are about to become your favorite side dish. Thinly sliced potatoes are layered with cream, parmesan, cheddar, and fresh thyme, then baked in a muffin tin until tender and creamy. A final blast of heat turns the edges irresistibly crisp while the centers stay soft and melty."  Comment from The Pioneer Woman

Great idea and they look delicious!

Cheesecake Crowns

"These elegant dessert pastries are so easy to make, but no one will believe it! I've served the fruit-filled crowns at brunch as well as after dinner."  Comment from Taste of Home

It is amazing how easy it is with puff pastry to make beautiful desserts.  I love how you can use your imagination to change the filling to another fruit and actually make all different fillings to top the cheesecake mixture with the same batch.  Love it!
