If you’re a meat and potatoes kinda girl (or guy) like myself, this is the recipe for you. Slowly roasted potatoes and sausages bake to perfection in your oven and fill your home with the aroma of home-cooked goodness. Mmm, makes my stomach growl just thinking about it.

I enjoy making this one-pot oven bake during the fall when the air is crisp, and your belly needs something hot and wholesome to warm it up. However, feel free to cook up this casserole anytime the spirit moves you. It’s flavorful, succulent, and very filling.

How’s it going, everyone? I’m just sitting here drooling over this picture of savory white bean chili. I’m a HUGE chili fan, and always have been. I’ve participated in chili cookoffs, chili cookouts, and plenty of chili eating. However, I’ve never experienced chili without tomatoes.

In fact, the whole concept just seemed silly to me when my husband suggested that I make a white chili. I was all, “Whatchu talkin’ bout Willis,” as he slowly backed away from my condescending glare. However, being the good wife that I am, I decided to give this recipe a shot, and boy, am I glad that I did. White bean chili is the cat’s meow!

Quik Tip: I added a few sprinkles of shredded cheddar cheese to my bowl and a dollop of sour cream. It tasted magnificent!

It may not be your typical chicken alfredo recipe, but this Cajun Chicken Alfredo is delicious. It contains just the right amount of spice to wake up the flavor a bit, but the spice is nicely balanced with half and half, so that even people very sensitive to spice will have no trouble enjoying this recipe. I do love Cajun recipes of all types, but ones like these are especially good for midweek nights when you want something really quick and need to keep cleanup to a minimum. I wouldn’t call this traditional alfredo, but it is certainly a yummy one-pot meal!

I must say I hesitated for a while when I came across this recipe. I do enjoy Chicken Alfredo as much as I do cajun seasoning, but had never thought of combining the two. Turns out it was a great idea!

If you have a hankering for some good Southern cookin’ and the convenience of a fast one-pot meal, give this Quick One-Pot Red Beans and Rice recipe a try. It’s great flavor without much hassle or time investment.

I love red beans and rice. It’s a classic Southern meal, particularly good for the cooler months. The traditional method involves cooking the beans with some good herbs, spices, and various types of pork until the beans (and other ingredients) practically make a gravy. It’s delicious, but it takes an incredibly long time, and then you have to cook the sausage and rice separately. This recipe lightens things up a bit (some people who aren’t fans of creamier or soupier beans may actually prefer that; I like them both ways), and even more importantly, it combines everything into one easy pot and speeds everything up while still bringing that great Deep South flavor.

A Simple Way To Make A Quick Dinner That Your Whole Family Will Love!

This Sweet and Sticky One-Pot Chicken Dinner is a hearty, family-friendly meal, great for people who enjoy the sweeter side of the sweet and savory flavor combination. It is gluten-free, and thanks to the use of honey, molasses, and maple syrup, it keeps the glycemic index on the low side without compromising on the sweet flavor. How’s that for a perfect meal, in every way! Another great thing about this recipe is that you don’t have to worry about slaving away in the kitchen.

There are two basic ways to get little ones who are a bit picky about their vegetables to eat a good helping of them. One way is to add cheese; the other is to crank up the sweetness. This recipe goes with the latter option, and it puts everything together in the form of a yummy sweet and savory one-pot meal, making it all that much more convenient for the cook under pressure.

Chicken Cacciatore is a hearty, earthy, robust stew that makes for a great one-pot family meal. It’s quick to make, and it’s surprisingly easy to put together, as well.

This creation is also often called hunter’s stew, but I think that the name “chicken cacciatore” just suits it better. There isn’t much in the way of complexity here, but it does manage good depth of flavor without any fancy methods and with only a modest time investment.

Bring the savory flavor of the Wild West to your breakfast table with this hearty Southwestern Breakfast Casserole. It’s great for potlucks and large family meals and bakes in just an hour.

I can be a bit picky about my breakfast food. Though I settle for the absolute basics when I have to, I really prefer something rather hearty and a bit outside the norm that isn’t too difficult to foot the bill.  This Southwestern breakfast casserole fits the bill nicely.
