recipes...just like i promised.

i have two rules when it comes to cooking.
1.easy
2. good
let me say... i don't mind to cook. i love to cook. but, most nights i two very cute, loving, precious minis at my feet. they argue, cry, hit, cry some more, and climb up the stove. so easy meals are my best friend. ha! when i came across these two recipes i couldn't wait to try them. we aren't typically a "boxed meal" family. which makes my first rule hard sometimes. but whenever i can find a short cut...i'm all about it.

any * means i changed the recipe.
 the recipe is on the back of the box. but in case you are just wondering.
1. in a large skillet, saute rice-vermicelli mix with 2 tbsp. *butter until brown.

turkey and cheese sliders

you can find a similar recipe here. it's where i got the idea. ;)
1. slice white dollar rolls in half.
2. on the roll add: mayo, turkey, and 1/2 a piece of white american cheese.
close roll
3. in a bowl mix some mustard, some Worcestershire sauce, some melted butter,and some minced garlic. [i say "some" because that's literally what i did. just threw some together.]
4. pour over the roll and allow to sit for 5-10 minutes while the oven preheats to 350 degrees.
5. cover with tin foil and place in the oven for about 15 minutes.
6. after 15 minutes remove tin foil and broil until golden brown.
7. enjoy!
