I ended up making a new fave, and I relaxed and let Hero loose in the kitchen to make the Pizza Rolls.
The Southwest Sweet Potato soup is such an amazingly easy/tasty/healthy recipe. A friend of mine had made it one day when I went over for lunch...i honestly wasn't too sure what to expect. I am NOT adventurous in my eating, i like it nice and simple! But i was amazed at how much i loved it, and quickly asked her for the recipe! Basically what i did last night was peel a large sweet potato, slice it up(so it'll cook quickly), cover it with some chicken stock(just covered), cook till soft. oh! i added some black pepper and cumin while it cooked. Then add a bit of salsa for some zip, and immersion blender the heck out of it. (sorry, i don't actually follow recipes, i just 'wing it'). Hopefully you get the point. lol. YUMMM-O!
So while that was all cookin' up. I set Hero up with the task of the Pizza Rolls that I've seen on a few blogs lately and Pinterest (of course!!). SUCH a simple recipe, and they turned out AMAZING!!!
We used 2 packs of the Pillsbury weiner wrap, a bit of pepperoni, some mozza, and then pizza sauce heated up on the side. I think we baked them for like 11 mins(?) on 375.
I have to admit that Hero did an AMAZING job making them. It wasn't even remotely as bothersome as i thought that it would be. (i may or may not be a control freak who believes that it's just easier to do it myself! and then freak out later when i'm the one that has to do everything!!!)
Baby steps i tell ya. Baby steps.
(ha ha, it looks like i have stolen all the pizza rolls in this pic! lol. nom nom ALLLL MINE!)

looks so yummy! Good cooking.. good looking! :)
I have a hard time letting the kids help in the kitchen as well! I have a routine of sorts and it doesn't go well if they help lol I think I have to plan ahead to have them help, I can't be spontaneous! I've been enjoying your food related adventures the last few days, keep it up ;)
I am also the mom who takes control over things, because I know they won't be done right. It is really hard to get over that for sure.
Pizza rolls are going to be something we need to try. Looks yummy!
Glad I am not the only one who feels I must do everything, and then complains after that I have to do everything! These pizza rolls look quite yummy. My son is finally starting to like pizza, yep... I have a kid that hates pizza. He might actually quite enjoy these, but never know with his fussy bum.
That soup sounds great, I'm going to try it!
A www! Hero did such a great job and that soup sounds delish! Hope your headache is gone today :-)
Mmmm....now my mouth is watering....
What a great idea. My kids would love to make these
Ooh, cook dinner for me! This sounds SO good, especially the pizza rolls. And they look perfect, so see, now you learned a lesson about not micro-managing in the kitchen. ;)
Sounds great, I will have to try that soup!!! My boys love to make those pizza roll ups, especially if I'm not watching and they try to roll up 10 pepperoni in one wrap ;)
That's how I follow recipes too! I've tried to list recipes I've made on Allrecipes but you have to give detailed instructions and well, I don't measure!
Oh I love those pizza roll-ups, a nice twist for the kids.
