FRIDAY
- Main dish: Philly Cheesesteak Casserole – This highly rated casserole gives you the yummy philly cheesesteak vibe, but is make quick and easy with ground beef. Perfect for serving up on hoagie rolls, or eating on shredded lettuce in a bowl to keep it light, it can be as versatile as your imagination.

- Veggie and ranch– I really recommend my homemade buttermilk ranch for a real treat!

- Dessert – Peanut Butter Swirl Bars– These are always a hit and rarely last longer than a day. These are mild and sweet combing the best flavors for a chewy delicious dessert bar!
APPETIZER
- Black Bean and Corn Salsa– This is the perfect snacking appetizer! I like to make a big batch so we can have it with chips, but also pile it on leftover chicken, tacos, or any dish we may be having that needs a little extra!
