Lasagna Casserole

Hey Divas,

So basically a 5 year old could cook this meal which is why I'm bringing it this month. :)
However, I think it is quite good or as Melissa would say "YUMMO IN MY TUMMO"!

1 lb. ground beef
1/2 chopped onion
1 jar of spaghetti sauce (I use HEB'S tomato and basil)
8 oz. spiral noodles
1 pkg. shredded mozzarella
1 container cottage cheese (16 oz.)
Parmesan cheese

Brown the meat with the onion.
Mix it with the sauce, cooked spiral noodles, mozzarella, and cottage cheese.
Put in greased baking dish and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.

Bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes.
If frozen bake for an hour.

Looking forward to not cooking for another month! See you ladies soon.

Bacon Wrapped Pork-Tenderloin

Okay, I think this is going to be the yummiest DD dinner I've contributed yet. We had our pork tenderloin for Easter lunch, and it was AMAZING!!!

Pork Tenderloin
bacon
Tony Chachere's Original Seasoning

Defrost tenderloin in fridge overnight.

-Preheat oven to 350
-Wrap tenderloin with bacon
-Season with Tony Chachere's and place in a pan deep enough to place foil over the top
-Cook for 2-2 1/2 hours depending on your oven

ENJOY! I'm also sending everyone home with a can of baked beans.

Lemon Chicken

Hey Divas,

I have decided to make Lemon Chicken with Rice. I thought it would be refreshing since summer decided to come in April instead of June! ;)

Lemon Chicken
3 tsp dried thyme
3 tsp salt
3/8 tsp garlic powder
1 cup lemon juice
1.5# boneless, skinless chicken tenders
Rice

Mix all spices and lemon juice in a ziploc. Add chicken and freeze. When thawed, preheat oven to 450. Arrange chicken in a greased baking dish. Pour liquid over chicken. Bake 20 minutes. Turn chicken over, bake another 10 minutes until juices run clear. Prepare rice according to package. Serve chicken with rice. Enjoy!
