Casual Dinner Night at the Porters

Hey ladies!! As I was thinking through this month's meal I decided to keep it simple & just make a few of Lance's & my favorite foods & then maybe add a couple of new recipes. A few of you have had some of this at my house & I am sorry if you were hoping for something fancier but I was in the mood for simple & easy :) Excited to see all of y'all next week!! Here are the recipes:

Whitney - baked spaghetti

Emily - watermelon pico de gallo: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2013/06/watermelon-pico-de-gallo/

Kati - roasted green beans: http://www.kraftrecipes.com/recipes/roasted-green-beans-peppers-onion-94524.aspx

(Kati I think we've talked about this before but when I make these I marinate the green beans & the peppers in Italian dressing overnight. Also I don't use the onion - only b/c lance doesn't like onion - so that's optional. Plus i just pour however much of the dressing to coat the beans & however much to coat the peppers in the ziplock bags I marinate them in - dont measure out half a cup - in fact I probably use more.  I also use the whole green beans in a bag if I can find them - the ends are already trimmed.)

Catherine - Caesar salad:  http://www.yummly.com/recipe/external/Romaine-Salad-with-Caesar-Dressing-Martha-Stewart-194867

Jen - Garlic cheese bread: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2009/03/garlic-cheese-bread/ (We may have made this one back when we did pioneer woman but I can't remember  - if some & you'd rather pick another that's great - this one just sounded & looked really good)

Sarah - Chocolate peanut butter ice cream sandwich cake:
