While surfing on Pinterest  I found Funfetti Sandwich Cookies (the link includes the original blog post and recipe). They looked divine. I mean seriously, who doesn't love rainbow chip? I gave them a try last night. They have ingredients I have at home (cake mix, oil, milk, vanilla, eggs, icing sugar, margarine) and minimal prep work. First, the things I didn't like: The batter was really quite running compared to regular cookie batter. This made it hard to get the cookies off the spoon in an orderly fashion. The cookies were hard to get off of the cookie sheet. I found myself smooshing them as I tried to coax them off. Second, the things I did like: They look scrumptious.

Ground beef (I used the vegetarian substitute this time to make-up for "a little less meat" Monday, but I brown my ground beef before I throw it in the freezer, so this is prep-free for me) 1 pkg gravy Vegetables (frozen, canned, or leftover) Mashed potatoes (leftover or instant) Cheese Put as much meat (or fake meat:-) at the bottom of your casserole dish. Make the gravy as per package directions. I like my gravy a bit thicker, so I added a bit of flour (mixed in water) once it got boiling in the microwave. Pour the gravy over the meat and mix. Layer vegetables on top. I partially cooked my frozen veggies to cut down on cooking time. Mix shredded cheese with potatoes (as much or as little as you like). Spread on top. I cooked this for 1/2 hour at 350 degrees with the lid on. I find that I have very little time from when I get home,...
