Okay, first of all... EVERYONE'S meal ideas are going in the Rankin recipe book. We have them printed out and are excited to try them all - THANK YOU THANK YOU to everyone for taking the time to submit ideas!
As we agreed, however, someone's coming over for dinner... And the winner is... pw! The Penne with Asparagus and Bacon, AND Baked Potato Night have lured me in especially - and I plan to try them for my college friend, Elizabeth, during her visit next week. Pw, one of us will be calling in the next few weeks to get our dinner on the calendar. :-)
Honorable mentions go to Tami for the pork shoulder crock pot idea, Katie for the Mac 'n' Cheese dish and Laura for the Calzones (which Ed has said is the only thing he ever wants to eat for dinner ever again).
Stacy - your lentil recipe is a similar concept to what we've heard Eva eats in the nursery; we have it bookmarked as an impending favorite!
Thanks again to everyone - we will use them all!

Congratulations PW! I thought that Penne with Asparagus meal sounded good, too!
KJ - You get the prize from 4+ years ago when we had taco stack-ups at your li'l blue house. We've been making that about twice a month lately... one of my favorites! :-)
Keep on cookin', V! I think most kiddos look back fondly and think their mom made the best _______. You guys will do great!
Rock on. This is nearly the best day of my life. :)
I am glad Ed liked it!
You can also change around the ingredients according to how you feel.
I love adding those little pepperoni cubes to it, or you can add fried onions, fried green peppers, or even a different meat than the original ham- like sausage maybe.
Just have Fun!
Cooking can be creative~
Vonda, I'm so glad you have new ideas, and such wonderful friends. How fun! Sometimes some possitive experiences (from ideas that work) are all the incentive you need.
