Summer food ideas for Thursday and Friday

Lazy Cake Cookies -

1 box of yellow or white cake mix, 2 eggs beaten, 1 stick melted butter, 2C chocolate chips. Mix together and bake in 9X13 pan on 350 for 20 min. When cooled, cut into squares. Spray the pan with cooking spray for easy cutting and clean up. I used Butter Flavored Pam

Crockpot Bacon Cheese Potatoes

Ingredients

1/4 pound bacon, diced – I bake it first in the oven so that it is “done” and browned then I dice it and place in the crock pot.

2 medium onions, thinly sliced

4 medium potatoes, thinly sliced (or if you use a new potato or Yukon gold then halve)

1/2 pound cheddar cheese, thinly sliced (shredded is fine)

salt and pepper

butter

Green Onions (optional)

Instructions

Line crockpot with foil, leaving enough to cover the potatoes when finished – this will help to not stick and to steam the potatoes – also to keep them from getting discolored or mushy.

Layer half each of the bacon, onions and potatoes in the crockpot.

Season to taste with salt and pepper and dot with (real) butter.

Repeat layers of bacon, onions, potatoes and cheese. Dot with butter.

Cover with remaining foil.

Cover and cook on low for up to 6 hours (check at 4 hours – depending on your crock pot).

Add cheese for the last 20 – 30 minutes and enjoy!
