I'm going to do a little introduction, since this is my first time posting on this blog. I'm Stephanie, Sarah's neighbor. She has been telling me about this blog for a while, and I'm excited to share and get new recipes!
If you are looking for a super easy dinner that's light but filling, try this one.
2, 8 oz blocks of softened cream cheese
1 package of Pesto sauce mix, I use Knorr brand.
Put cream cheese in glass dish and sprinkle pesto sauce over top. Mix just a little bit. Put in oven at 375 for 10 minutes or until bubbly. Stir to combine. Broil for a few minutes, if desired.
Serve immediately with fresh veggies. I used cut up broccoli, celery, carrots, grape tomatoes. I also made some focacia bread to go along with the dip. We all loved it, my almost 3 year old and 16 month old kids ate SO many veggies, you would not believe it!
Focacia Bread
2 1/2-3 C bread flour
1 T rosemary or italian spices
1 T sugar
1 tsp salt
2 1/4 tsp yeast or 1 pkg yeast
3 T olive oil
1 C very warm water
2 T olive oil
In a large bowl combine 1 C flour, rosemary, sugar, salt, yeast. Add 3 T olive oil and warm water. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Stir enough remaining flour until dough leaves sides of bowl. Knead for 5-8 minutes on counter top. Grease bowl and place ball of dough in oil, grease both sides. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes. Grease a pizza sheet or cookie sheet. Flatten dough onto baking sheet. Cover and let rise 30 minutes. Gently make depressions with your fingertips all over dough. Place olive oil on top of dough and rub all over. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 400 degrees.

My first post!
I don't cook very much right now because of school and stuff, and I also don't have very many ingredients, but I really like that creamy Italian chicken, but I didn't have Italian seasoning last night, or much of anything, so threw this in the crock pot when I had a minute and it turned out pretty good
2 boneless-skinless chicken breasts ((frozen)
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1/2 package cream cheese
1/2 package ranch seasoning
Throw in the crock pot on low for 6 hours and serve over rice.
