As a mom of three, Army wife, and entrepreneur, I am always on the go. From cheerleading practice to speech therapy and military ceremonies, my family doesn’t have much downtime. Preparing a delicious meal that my picky eaters will enjoy is no easy feat. Baking a Chessy Chicken and Potato Casserole is always a win, win.

Ingredients: Makes 2 dozen
1 1/2 cups warm milk
2 1/4 teaspoons dry yeast
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tsp salt
1 egg, lightly beaten
3/4 cup puréed squash or canned pumpkin
¼ cup vegetable shortening or butter
4 to 5 cups all-purpose flour

This classic Thai chicken soup gets its rich flavor from quintessential Thai ingredients: coconut milk, lemongrass, ginger, turmeric, lime juice, chili, and cilantro. (30 minutes)

A great aspect of being a military family is the opportunity to be influenced by the cultures of your many homes over the years.
