My kids come through that door after school and the smell of these hits them before they even put their backpacks down. 🍕 One tube of refrigerated pizza dough rolled out flat, spread with marinara, loaded with mozzarella, pepperoni, bacon, and green pepper, then rolled up tight and sliced into 12 pieces. Fifteen minutes at 425 and set out a bowl of marinara for dipping. I have never once had a single one left over and I don't expect that to change anytime soon.

I used to spend good money on cashew chicken takeout and then I figured out I could just toss it in the crock pot and walk away. 🍗 Chicken tenderloins and a cup of teriyaki sauce on low for seven to eight hours, then sugar snap peas and cashews stirred in the last thirty minutes so they keep their crunch. Serve it over rice and honey, my family cannot tell the difference from the restaurant version. Four ingredients and 294 comments worth of people who will back me up on this one.

Pumpkin pie is wonderful but honey, sometimes I just want it on a gingersnap without turning the whole kitchen upside down. 🎃 Cream cheese beaten smooth with powdered sugar, then canned pumpkin, cinnamon, and ginger stirred right in and chilled for thirty minutes. Five ingredients and it tastes exactly like pumpkin pie filling in a bowl. Set it out with gingersnaps, apple slices, or vanilla wafers and watch it disappear before anything else on the table. I always make a double batch because a single one never makes it through the evening.

I pulled this out of the freezer at a get together last week and honey, people lost their minds over it. 🍦 Mint chocolate chip ice cream mixed with crushed Oreos and white chocolate pudding, spooned into a chocolate cookie crust and frozen overnight. Pile whipped cream and extra crushed Oreos right over the top before you serve it and it looks like something straight out of a bakery case. The hardest part of this whole recipe is waiting for it to freeze, and I am not good at that part at all.

Five minutes of prep the night before, mix it up, throw it in mason jars, and breakfast is done before anyone’s even fighting over shoes. Creamy, sweet, a little indulgent, and my kids don’t even miss their sugary cereal. Top with pecans and an extra drizzle of maple if you’re feeling fancy 🍁

"This is so delicious! I have made is several times and it always turns out perfect! Great for a belly warming Fall meal!" -Stephanie Cortes

I put this in the crock pot before school drop off and by supper time the whole house smells incredible. 🍚 Chicken breasts, chopped onion, and cream of chicken soup go in first thing in the morning. When everybody gets home you stir in the Zatarain's yellow rice, corn, and cheddar and give it ten more minutes. That's your whole supper right there. My kids come to the table without being asked twice when this one is cooking and that tells me everything I need to know.

I cannot think of a better way to use a can of pumpkin than this cake right here. 🎃 Soft, moist pumpkin batter layered twice in a 9x13 pan with a brown sugar, oat, and butter crumb topping pressed in the middle and piled on top. Forty five minutes at 350 and the whole kitchen smells like everything good about this time of year. That crumb topping stays crunchy because of the oats and honey, it is the best part of every single bite. Serve it warm with your morning coffee and I promise your day gets better.

Fall weather calls for a pot of this on the stove and honestly it’s the only chowder I make. Potato corn chowder, thick, creamy, and loaded with tender potatoes and sweet corn. A little jalapeño for warmth, a little paprika for depth, and it comes together in about 50 minutes. One reader said her elderly parents loved it so much she made it twice in one week. Top it with bacon, cheddar, and a little sour cream and you’ve got the coziest bowl of the season 🌽

Toss it in before you leave the house and walk back through the door to a meal that practically made itself. 🍗 Red potatoes and baby carrots layered in the bottom of the crock pot, sweet onion on top, a splash of sherry poured over everything, then boneless chicken thighs laid right over the vegetables with fresh rosemary and a good seasoning of salt and pepper. Low and slow for five to eight hours and that chicken gets so tender it falls apart and the drippings turn into the most incredible broth the vegetables cook in all day. My family walks in the door and heads straight to the kitchen every single time.

Chili night and mac and cheese night just became the same night. 🍲 Ground beef and onion browned in one pot, then beef broth, pinto beans, chili beans, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, all your spices, and the dry elbow pasta go straight in together and cook right there for 15 minutes. Stir in a big pile of cheese at the end and that's your whole supper. Crumble some Fritos on top and nobody at my table is complaining about a single thing.
