It is already time for the
The Secret Recipe Club, time goes by so fast when we are having fun. It has been fun to be a part of this monthly event. I always look forward to receiving my assignment to find out who I will meet that month and get to pick out one of their recipes to make. This month I was excited to have
Angela's Kitchen as my assignment. Angela has a great blog that is Gluten and Dairy Free, she says "because everyone deserves a cookie", and I sure agree. Although she has many great recipes I choose one that will really stretch the dollars and is very tasty.

Miz Helen's Recipe Tips
This is a great recipe that you can do so many different things with. I did add more seasons because we like it spicy. I put one bag in the freezer and cooked the remainder, then I took part of that and made a great Casserole.
Seasons Added
