Easy Strawberry Cheesecake

Strawberry cheesecake is my 2nd favorite dessert, next to vanilla white cake with strawberries in the middle covered in whipped cream topping. YUM! I wanted to make this easier for myself being I am very busy, going non stop every single day with a 5 year old, 17 year old and 18 year old children. I made this dessert to bring to a family dinner at my brother in laws home. This dessert was gone before I could blink, lol. I literally wanted a second piece but it was gone. So, I made a second one for our family after the party. You Will Need: 1 tub Cheesecake Filling 12 Graham Crackers Crushed 1/2 Cup Sugar 1 Stick Butter, melted  1 lb Strawberries, cut 1/2 Cup Sugar 2 tbsp Lemon Juice

Green Bean Casserole

Holidays are coming! Holidays are coming!! OMFG!! Get ready! I love, love, love making this green bean casserole. I use as many pure ingredients as I can; for example I used canned green beans (but I canned them myself!), I used raw grass-fed milk, and cream of mushroom soup (not in a can). You can take any classic recipe that may not be 'healthy' for you and you can make it healthy; as I did here. The crispy onions I used only have 4 ingredients in them (which is amazing considering what is in French's onions). When I use items that are non-organic I like to look for 5 or less ingredients, not in a can, and does not contain anything 'bad'.
You Will Need:
4 Cups Green Beans 
1 Cup Milk
12 oz Cream of Mushroom 
Crispy Onions
Salt & Pepper
Mix the cream of mushroom with the milk, whisk well
Stir in green beans
Add in crispy onions, mix, and top with more. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until everything is heated through
I served it with roasted potatoes, and pot roast that I cooked in spices and other things, then thickened it with gravy packets (organic from whole foods)
