CROCKPOT COWBOY CASSEROLE

 

Cowboy Casserole!

Stand By Your Crockpot Because It's Crockpot Season.

Cowboy Casserole is rustic and rugged, but also cozy and indulgent

with the smokey, cheesy, creamy flavors that are tasty bold.

Get your Cowboy Boots & Cowboy Hat on and lets get

COOKING!

Got my Cowboy Boots, Cowboy Hat and Crockpot,

so lets saddle up and get it cooking.

Y'all this is everything you will need and don't mistake

Simple for Basic with these ingredients,

Chop up one Onion.

Rope the Onions into a large pot on the stove top.

Rope into the pot 2lbs of Ground Beef, some minced

Garlic and of course some Salt & Pepper.

Cook the Beef until browned and Onions are translucent.

Wrangle the Beef into a large Crockpot.

Corral up the rest of the ingredients

that will be roped into the Cowboy Casserole.

Stampede in one bag of frozen Corn and one can of

drained Kidney Beens to the Rodeo.

Rope in one can of diced Tomatoes with 

Green Chiles to the Rodeo.

Lasso in one can of Cream Of Mushroom Soup to the Rodeo.

Rope in 1/2 cup of Milk to the Rodeo.

Rope in 3 cups of Frozen Hash Brown Potatoes to the Rodeo.

Y'all I LOVE Hash Brown Potatoes!

Now give the Crockpot a Two Step dance.

Put a lid on this Rodeo and set the timer to

Low for 6 hours or High for 3 hours.

Set It and forget it.

Let it do all the work while you go ride and when you

come home your house will spell...

Amazing!

This Cowgirl is off to have some fun because 

The Cowboy Is Cooking.

Just before serving the Cowboy Casserole

whip up some Country Biscuits.

Pop those Biscuits into a 400 degree oven for 10 minutes

or until golden brown.

Truck in a cup of Cheddar Cheese.

Rope in the Cheddar Cheese and top the

Cowboy Casserole off.

Y'all the Country Biscuits are baked so lets

rally up because it's time to eat!

Sneaking A Taste!

Omg yum and it's kind of a meal Cowboys & Cowgirls

probably Dream of while riding across the wild plains all day.

Hall in some plates.

Y'all, Cowboy Casserole & Biscuits!

This Is A Hug In A Bowl Straight

 From The Heartland.

Now I am doing The Two Step :)

For sure rope in some Hot Sauce to sling

on to your Cowboy Casserole too.

Fall is in the air and I think I may just put the Fireplace on now.

This recipe lends itself to many variations but

this is how this Cowgirl is whipping it up today :)

Enjoy!

P.S.

Cowgirl lucky here. We have some leftovers to

enjoy when the Cowboy Casserole Craving comes Galloping in!

Trucking to the freezer with these Cowboy Casseroles.

Remember....

Cooking with a Crockpot is the best because when you

open you front door after 6 hours you're hit

with a scent so rich and so warm

GIDDY UP!

DOLLY PARTON'S FRUIT COCKTAIL CAKE

 

Dolly Parton's Fruit Cocktail Cake!

Good Golly Miss Dolly, this cake is so Delicious and

it does not take 9 to 5 to whip it up.

Feels like I stole the recipe for this Fruit Cocktail Cake from

the "Steel Magnolias" kitchen and I did.

This cake is a perfect combination of juicy fruit and a crisp

cobbler-like topping with a pudding like texture in the center. 

Add a scoop of Ice Cream and start singing a

Dolly Parton Song!

Got My Dolly, Got My Fruit Cocktail, Got My Cowboy Boots.

Let's Get Cooking Y'all.

Dolly's Ingredients For Her

Fruit Cocktail Cake.

In a large bowl add in 1 cup of Self Rising Flour.

Pour in 1 cup of Sugar.

Pour in 1 tsp of Vanilla Extract.

With a Pink spoon give the bowl a stir.

Grab 2 cans of Fruit Cocktail.

Drain one can of the Fruit Cocktail but save the juice.

The Lovely Colors in this reminds me of Dolly's song...

Coat Of Many Colors :)

Tumble in one can of Fruit Cocktail to the 

bowl along with the juices.

Tumble in the can of drained Fruit Cocktail to the bowl.

As Dolly Sings "Here You Come Again"...

Grab that Pink spoon again and give the bowl a mix.

Stir Stir Stir Again.

Yum!

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene...butter up an 8x8 inch baking dish.

Grab that Fruit Cocktail mixture.

Like Dolly's song "Island In The Stream"

Spread the cake mixture out like an even 

Stream into the baking dish. :)

 Bake the Fruit Cocktail Cake in a 350 degree 

oven for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center

comes out with a few clinging crumbs and the top is golden brown.

Set the timer for 45 minutes....but not 9 to 5...LOL

Like Dolly's Song "I Will Always Love You"....

Think she would LOVE my flower arrangement too.

Pour that saved Fruit Cocktail juice into your

Southern Cocktail Drink. :)

Golden Brown & Toothpick Test.

Dolly's Fruit Cocktail Cake Is Done!

This cake has to completely Cool because

we are going to top it with Vanilla Ice Cream.

Dolly said "time to dig in to the Fruit Cocktail Cake".

 Dolly Parton says in the movie"Steel Magnolias 

serve this cake up with scoop of ice cream to complement the sweetness.

Like Dolly's song " Here You Come Again"...

Yes, several more bites of this Tasty Delicious

Fruit Cocktail Cake.

This Cake is also known as the

Cuppa, Cuppa, Cuppa Cake

I Will Always Love You!

This is just Wonderful.

Enjoy!

P.S.

If you don't cook from Scratch...

Dolly Parton has it covered for you :)
