Scalloped Potatoes and Ham

After working all day, the last thing I wanted to do was cook dinner but it had to be done. My daughter was watching the cooking channel as I walked past the living room heading for the kitchen. The only thing that I heard as I passed was, “Scalloped Potatoes and Ham, that is what is for dinner!” Ree, the Pioneer Woman, spoke words directly to me. I was hooked and that was exactly what I had for dinner! I did mine differently and it was not as pretty as hers when it came out of the oven but it was wonderful!

Here is what I did.

Zucchini Spiral Squash Bake

Fred Meyer (Kroger) sends out their "mymagazine" to its customers which has coupons, recipes and stories. It is a very nice little magazine that I like to flip through when I get it. This time the chef had a section on tarts and galettes. The one that caught my eye was the spiral-squash galette. This is the printed recipe.

Preparations time: 45 minutes | Total time: 1 hour 10 minutes | Serves 4-6

Ingredients:

1 pie crust

3 squashes (two zucchini, one yellow squash)

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning

Zuppa Toscana

The first time that I tried Zuppa Toscana was at Olive Garden. I fell in love with the soup and decided to make it myself.

INGREDIENTS

1 lb ground Italian sausage

1½ tsp crushed red peppers

1 large diced white onion

4 Tbsp bacon pieces

2 tsp garlic puree

Egg & Cheese Hash Brown Nests

I have been a fan of The Pioneer Woman - Ree Drummond, for quite a long time. She cooks and acts like I do in so many ways. She just seems like someone that loves a meal with family and friends just to have great conversation.

I was watching Food Network the other day and saw a rerun of Ree Drummond's Easter brunch, I think. I am not sure which episode number of "The Pioneer Woman" featured the Eggs in Hash Brown Nests, but I did find it on her blog.
