No Name Chicken with Roasted Red Potatoes

Lasagna and Green Bean Casserole
Yum Yum Yum! I LOVE italian cooking, its my favorite. I made this one evening over the summer for Sean. The lasagna is really good because it is so easy to freeze so it takes a while but if you double the ingredients you can have a precooked meal you just gotta pop it in the oven. Here it goes. I make mine in steps, its all homemade.
I make my tomato sauce first, it makes about 4 cups:

Parmesan Crusted Tilapia and Garlic Pasta
This is so good and really easy to make. I like to use tilapia because its my favorite fish because its white meat and doesn’t really have that fishy taste. I didn’t go off of a recipe for this so I will just wing it, but I have a heavy hand for seasoning, so I know I put more seasoning then I’m about to say I did.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Create cheese mixture in a bowl,...

This came out so good and tender. When I checked it in the crock pot a few hours later, my meat was already shredding itself. I think cooking with pork is my new favorite, it always comes out very tender in the slow cooker.
1 (2 pound) boneless pork loin, trim the fat.
1 teaspoon ground sage
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 cup of chicken broth
