I came across this website and really liked the concept... I love the idea of super easy, yummy dinners that can be ready in minutes. I also like the calendar and automatic grocery list. I haven't tried any of the recipes (I'm going to try the mac-n- cheese tonight) but thought I'd pass on the info. PS... it's free to join.

I'll tell you what I think of the mac-n-cheese tomorrow.

Cranberry Apple Crisp
I got this recipe from Macey's ads. Nate & I made it the other night & liked it a lot. I love anything with apples this time of year & the cranberries add a yummy, tart flavor. It was great with vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
5 cups sliced tart apples (about 6 medium apples)
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup butter
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a 9" square baking pan. Pare & core apples. Layer apples and cranberries in pan sprinkling with sugar as you layer. Mix flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Work in butter until light and crumbly. Sprinkle topping evenly over apples and cranberries. Bake 45 minutes or until apples are tender. Makes 9 servings.

Ham and Cheese Sandwich Loaf
Hey! Am I the only one still using this site? You guys have the best recipes... I use them all the time! Don't hold out on me :)
Mix in a bowl and let sit:
2 tbsp yeast
1/2 c warm water
1/2 tsp sugar
In bosch (or other mixer), mix the following:
3/4 c warm water
2 tbsp mustard
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp butter
2 c flour
Add in yeast mixture. Mix and add 2 or so more cups of flour (slowly - I only used 1 1/2 when I did it). Knead in mixer for 5 minutes.
Roll out into a 12 x14 rectangle. Cut slits in the sides 1/3 of the way into the center (I cut 10 on each side). Lay deli shaved ham down the center - on the uncut portion. Lay cheddar cheese over the top of the ham. Start at one side and pull the dough slice over the ham/cheese to the other side, then do the same with the dough slice on the other side - you will make a braid. Tip: pinch the edges so the cheese doesn't ooze out during cooking.
Brush with egg white, then add sesame seeds to the top.
Set aside and let it raise until it's almost double in size.
Bake on 375* for 25 mins.
Enjoy!
