Cordon Bleu pockets

I was meal prepping this week. I don't always meal prep, but my weeks definitely go better when I do. One of the things I prepped was some sandwich pockets. These can be used as quick easy lunches, grab and go dinners on the run or a great after school snack. 

I love making sandwich pockets! So versatile and easy to make.

Ingredients:

1 lb deli ham

.5 lb Swiss cheese

4 cups Shredded or cubed chicken

3 grands flaky biscuit cans

2 eggs (used for egg wash)

Seasoning of choice (used for tops)

Follow pictures for easy assembly

Cut cheese and ham into 4ths

 Break biscuits apart in half

 Spread half of dough flat.

 Place a slice of cheese on bottom of stretched dough.

 Place a few ham slices on top of cheese.

 Place another cheese slices on top of ham.

 Place a spoonful of chicken on top of the cheese.

Top with another slice of cheese.

 Place top half of dough on meat and cheese layers and pinch sides to close it up.

 Repeat process until all the dough is used. (makes about 24) brush tops of dough with egg wash and sprinkle with seasoning of choice. I used Ms. dash.

 Bake 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 min.

 You can cool and freeze or place in container in the fridge.

Enjoy!

Easy Sunday crockpot French dip sandwiches

I love easy Sunday crockpot dinners. The house smells amazing, I'm not slaving over the stove and everyone gets a delicious tasting meal.

Today we had choir practice after church. The song is so pretty as it comes together. However, my stomach was feeling empty on the way home from church. I have felt uninspired of what to make for dinner. I had thin sliced beef that needed cooking and all I could think of is Philly cheese steak sandwiches which would need bread I don't have, or beef and broccoli which we've had recently. So as I was talking to my hubby about what he might be able to think about to use the meat for. He suggested some kind of meat sandwiches. Then it hit me. The older boys favorite sandwiches are French dip sandwiches. I had some "fancy" buns in the freezer... So here is my take on an easy French dip crockpot sandwiches.

Ingredients

Thin sliced beef (I had stir fry beef)
1  small onion sliced thin
1 PKG dry italian seasoning
1 PKG dry au ju mix
2 cups water
4 tbsp worchestershire sauce

Directions
Add onion, beef and dry italian seasoning to crockpot, mix the water, worchestershire and au ju mix together. Pour over top. Set cook on high 2-4 hours. Serve on buns with cheese.  Use sauce for dipping.

Enjoy!
