DSD is this coming weekend (stay tuned for awesome sales!) and that means full time computer watching and no time to cook. If you’re not a pizza ordering/fend for yourself kind of house – or if you just want to impress the family with your ability to scrap and shop all day AND get an amazing dinner on the table – check out these recipes. I (Nibbles Skribbles) have made them all, they are all super easy, super delicious and they are all prep ahead/slow-cooked meals so you don’t even have to get up until dinner time! So, pick your favorites and make sure you have what you need, because come Saturday – you’ll want to be hanging out right here at Digital Scrapbooking Studio!

Tater Tot Egg Bake from Mess for Less

Nibbles Notes: This is a favorite, not only when we want breakfast for dinner, but anytime I have to bring something to a brunch. You can make it up ahead of time (even the day before – just wait to put the tots on top until you’re ready to bake). Because of the tots, this is a super filling dish and you don’t even need anything else to go with it. Not a fan of sausage? Leave it out or try a replacement. I’ve used chopped, cooked bacon, chopped and sauteed vegetables, or just a couple extra eggs as variations!

Pesto Ranch Chicken from Picky Palate

Nibbles Notes: This one smells so cooking! The recipe says to serve it with potatoes, but we serve with pasta (usually rotini) because the kids eat that better – and the sauce is delicious! If you like to eat the chicken skin, I suggest browning it before tossing in the crock pot, and feel free to throw in chicken drumsticks too! Any bone-in chicken works well!

Spicy (or not) Dr. Pepper Pork from The Pioneer Woman

Nibbles Notes: Did I mention I have kids? Spicy does not work for us – but, this recipe is fabulous even if you hold the adobo peppers. My husband throws a little hot sauce (Smoked Tabasco) on top of his ‘taco’ when he makes it. We top with red pepper, tomato, sour cream, cheese and cilantro (if I have it around). The leftovers of this one are even better!

Taco Soup from Nibbles Skribbles

Nibbles Notes: Other than browning some ground beef (or turkey, or chicken, whatever you like) this recipe is so easy! Open a few cans, pour into a pot and ignore until it’s time to eat. My kids love this, adults love this! Grab some tortilla chips or cornbread to enjoy with it!
