Roast chicken with potatoes is my favorite meal. It reminds me greatly of my grandma and Sundays that I spend in her house. She would make this almost every single time when I come to visit. I believe that it takes me back to that time of my life. With that being said, read more

The best part of summer is spending time with your family and friends. I am a foodie if you could not tell that before.
These Smoked Smithfield Craft Collection Yuengling Traditional Bratwurst and Sauerkraut Hoagie are absolutely amazing.
Nothing could make me happier during hot summer days than good old BBQ, smoked sausages, grilled steak, etc. The list is pretty much endless.
Anything that’s coming from my grill or smoker is like the best thing in the world to me.
My family and I spend so much time outside during summer break grilling, and I assume many other families do the same.
Today I am sharing the best way to prepare Smithfield® Craft Collection™ Yuengling® Traditional Bratwurst.
They are smoked to perfection with Mesquite flavor of the pallets, then topped with sauerkraut (also cooked in my smoker in an iron skillet), then placed in a warmly toasted hoagie.
I mean can I hear you cheer, please? These were the bomb. My family couldn’t stop eating them and I am doing it next weekend because they keep asking for more. Who am I to say no, right?!
I was overwhelmed with the flavor in a good way; as well as the texture and overall perfection of the bratwurst.
My husband, who by the way lived for quite some time in Germany, can say that these are LEGIT and are really darn good sausages.
The Smithfield bratwursts are infused with real Yuengling Traditional Lager, are made with premium cuts of pork and a special blend of sweet and savory spices and no MSG.
It has roasted caramel malt for a subtle sweetness and pairs great with grilled food. I mean beer and brats are the perfect pairings, don’t you agree?
Yuengling beer is from America’s oldest craft brewery and it has an amazingly rich amber color.
As I stated above, Yuengling is America’s oldest craft brewery, which is located in Pottsville, PA, and Smithfield is located in Smithfield, VA. You guessed it right, it is the ham capital of the world.
Both come from towns with a slower, more thoughtful pace – grounded in tradition with pride for their heritage.
With that heritage comes an appreciation for quality, flavor, and family. Well, if you ask me, my friends, that makes Smithfield & Yuengling the perfect pair.
Yuengling Lager beer complements these sausages perfectly, especially with some smoked sauerkraut.
If you like cold beer, smoked sausage, and the sauerkraut in a toasted hoagie, then head over to Kroger and get yourself ready for an amazing summer cookout.
You want to be a King or a Queen of your neighborhood this summer and I am telling you it cannot get any better than this.
With 4th of July around the corner, NASCAR and football as well, these would make you the best party host. You can thank me later!
Please let me know, what is your favorite way to prep your bratwurst? Do you cook it in the beer before grilling or does it go straight on the grill?
We love them either way and leftovers, if I have any, are amazing for breakfast with some eggs.
You can find Smithfield Yuengling Bratwurst at your local Kroger.
The best part of summer is spending time with your family and friends. I am a foodie, if you couldn’t tell that before, and nothing could make me happier during hot summer days than good ole BBQ, smoked sausages, grilled steak, and the list is pretty much endless.
Please, drink and eat responsibly!

It’s been a while since I posted a real dinner recipe, so I‘ve decided to post this fast and delicious dish that everyone loves. Chicken Fajita Bowl is amazing! Usually, I make cauliflower rice for myself, but the family loves eating rice and beans or just plain rice with Chicken Fajita. To be honest both of my boys strongly dislike cooked peppers and onion so I read more
The combination of Meatless Meatballs with Cauliflower and Broccoli just fit together like peas and carrots in the pot pie.
I just loved everything. I had my niece over for lunch, and she enjoyed it as well.
So, these meatballs are obviously meatless. I do not know how they did it, but they honestly taste like meat to me. Needless to say, they are so freaking delicious.
My family loved it too. Well, I do not make it often and we are not vegan or vegetarian, but I enjoy every few days a nice plant-based meal. I even crave salads!
To some of you, that might be strange but it is honestly true. Besides, broccoli and cauliflower are amazing in every possible way.
I wanted to stay with a completely vegan meal. Which is not mandatory, of course, since we are not vegans or vegetarians.
However, I wanted to go along with the theme and create our lunch so my family can actually see that vegan lunch can be delicious.
My boys are always running away from the idea but this turned around. We all truly enjoyed it.
I tossed some thawed organic broccoli and cauliflower with these meatballs. Also, I made this delicious veggie-packed spaghetti to go with it.
It was truly one remarkable meal. To be honest, you do not need a whole bunch of food to create an amazing meal for a family.
They will love anything that I make so I try to use simple ingredients to create a wonderful dinner.
You can find the Spaghetti recipes here on my blog. It is olive oil and garlic spaghetti, and we absolutely love it.
Of course, you can eat it just like this, or you may serve it with rice, quinoa, or any type of pasta.
Well, I am just here giving you a couple of tasty ideas. I have so many amazing meatless recipes and side dishes on my blog that I am sure you will find something.
I am linking some of my personal favorite meatless recipes. They are all tested and my picky family approved.
HAPPY COOKING!

Hey! If you try Meatless Meatballs with Cauliflower and Broccoli or any other recipe please tag me. On Instagram @sandraseasycooking. Thank you in advance!
This whole combo just fit together like peas and carrots in the pot pie. I just loved everything. I had my niece over for lunch, and she enjoyed it as well.
Put frozen vegetables in a colander or a strainer and run cold water over the vegetables until thawed. If you are thawing Spinach or kale, make sure to squeeze out excess water. I finish pasta at the same time I finish this dish so I could serve it together. This is also very easy to cook ahead and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze it for a month.
The reason why I do not keep broccoli and cauliflower longer than 2 days: It has a very particular smell if it stands in the fridge for too long.
I recommend no longer than 2 days. you can always freeze it and reheat. You can serve this with whatever you wish or eat it on its own. I like this green pasta very much.

Delicious and super easy dinner recipe. You can make it over the weekend for a quick weeknight meal. My family loves this version of Mexican lasagna and I am sure that you will, too.
I keep it pretty interesting by switching differently flavored tortilla, or meat, and sometimes meatless as well using more beans and fake meat or sausages.
You can make this in less than 20 minutes and just bake to melt the cheese and marry the flavors. If you are a Mexican food lover then this is a dish for you.
Oh, definitely add more chili powder or jalapeno if you are a fan of spicy because I added spicy sauce and it was amazingly delicious.
If you decide to make my tasty Mexican Inspired Lasagna do not forget to tag me on social media. You can find me on Instagram most of the time so use tag @sandraseasycooking with the same hashtag #sandraseasycooking. If you are private you can DM me a pic.

Delicious and super easy dinner recipe. You can make it over the weekend for a quick weeknight meal. My family loves this version of Mexican Inspired lasagna and I am sure that you will, too.
Preheat oven to 400F.
Add oil and ground beef to the skillet, and saute until well done, about 4-5 minutes on medium-high heat.
To cooked meat add black beans, corn, and seasoning. Stir well to combine and cook for a minute longer to just heat through the beans and corn.
Add about a ladle of the mixture on the bottom of the baking pan and sprinkle just a bit of cheese to help that first layer kind of glue itself to each other.
You can cut tortillas into smaller pieces, or look at my pictures to see how I did it.
Add about one ladle or two on top of tortillas then sprinkle cheese, and keep layering.
Make sure to have about ladle or two of the mixture for the last layer and enough cheese to cover from one end to the other end of the baking pan.
Bake lasagna for 15 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted. We want just to marry the flavors and melt the cheese because everything else is cooked already.
Take it out of the oven and serve with salad and/or sour cream. Garnish with chopped parsley or chopped scallions.
SUBSTITUTE INGREDIENTS:
You may use ground chicken or ground turkey instead of beef. You may use any beans on hands, preferably pinto or black beans. Instead of taco sauce, you can use salsa and instead of tomato sauce, you can use crushed tomatoes.
You can use any tortilla. I used homestyle, handmade small jalapeno tortillas from Sprouts Farmers Market, but you may use any on hand.
You can use Taco Cheese blend or shredded mild cheese instead of Mexican cheese blend. – You can FREEZE this before you bake it in the freezer/oven safe dish, or you can freeze it after it is baked. You can also keep it in the fridge for 3 to 4 days just for an easy meal. Heat and heat. – You can also make this as little as you want or double it. If you have a big family I would double it because it extremely tasty and versatile so you will go for seconds.
