This was a childhood favorite and is till this very day. I make it throughout the year but it’s an absolute MUST HAVE on my birthday every year. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
This can be found at Holy Ghost Fiestas. It’s a common Portuguese favorite. It’s ugly food but damn good. Below you’ll find instructions for stove top, crock pot and instant pot. I tend to serve this with macaroni or potato salad. It comes with a beautiful tale, if you’d like to know, ask.
This is good as a side dish to an oriental meal or by itself as a meal.
Great, easy, summer supper when you don’t want to turn the stove on. I serve it over rice. This is a favorite.
This is a super quick 15 min make. Grab some left over London broil, steak, roast, etc slice it thin and your 15 minutes from a delicious meal.
A little grilled taste of the islands on a summer’s day. I love this because it’s quick, easy and the pineapple is refreshing. I serve it over a bed of rice and use the remaining marinade as a sauce to pour over the top.
Asian food of all kinds seemed to always be a staple in the house. This is Joni’s Teriyaki Beef. In the photo, I added green beans because I love veggies.
Typically Piquant sauce is a spicy, tomato base that is found in Cajun cookin, here Joni used chicken stock instead. The word Piquant comes from the French for “to prick or sting” and this zesty sauce just does that.
I’ve never really been a fan of beef stroganoff until I played with this recipe. Making it without the use of the onion soup mix was probably the very reason I fell in love with this recipe. It is now a family favorite. You can make this in the slow cooker or a pressure cooker. Adjust time to the equipment you choose.
This recipe was a bit challenging as I am not a big fan of what the original protein (Veal) in the recipe called for. I improvised a bit with lamb, but this recipe can also be made with Veal, Chicken, or Beef. I really enjoy the uniqueness of the lamb throughout this dish as it introduces a different mouth feel in texture and taste from the veal. This dish was served with Mashed Potatoes The recipe this was based on came from a little pamphlet from Provimi Veal from a year I won’t even take a guess at 🙂
When I think of beef stew, I think of low and slow in a crockpot for many hours. This recipe gives the same tender and savory comfort meal without the long hours. Of course, if you would like to make this in a crockpot, you absolutely can. Just add the meat, flour, stock, or water, and the seasonings to the crockpot for the first several hours. Then add the vegetables in for at least the last hour. The original recipe for this came off the back of a box of Lipton mix. Those packages are so full of salt and …
I really enjoyed this recipe as it allowed me to explore other ingredients using meatballs. Traditionally, I have only used them for a typical Italian dish, so this recipe definitely takes me a little out of my comfort zone. Nevertheless, a wonderful surprise.
This recipe is so versatile, you can have it as a main course at lunch or dinner, or even as an appetizer, with some chips.
For this recipe I added a lot of carrots and potatoes because my family eats a lot of them, feel free to add more or less to suit your family’s needs. This roast is an easy one-pot meal that will feed your whole family. Growing up I ate a lot of pot roast as it was something easy for my mother to toss in the crockpot or on the stove to cook while she helped me and my sisters finish any schoolwork we had for the day. I remember the delicious smell wafting through the house as we sat doing …
Pot roast has always been a favorite dish of mine. I thought of baked cabbage and wanted to put something delicious inside of it. So I decided to put the pot roast inside of the cabbage and made rolls. Thought it would look better and taste better with a sauce to go on top. Which I thought turned out great.
A unique recipe that is exciting yet a bit challenging to make, but in the end, it came out with great flavors.
Great appetizer dish for everyone, each roll is packed with flavor.
A delicious, creamy appetizer for all.
This is a delicious, stick to your ribs stew that would be perfect on a cold winter night! This recipe was very simple. I wanted to jazz it up, so I added fresh ingredients. I also wanted to make sure it wasn’t too rich, so I added carrots for the contrast. Still a very easy preparation and cook. Hope you enjoy!
Bisquick; the classic and easy baking mix with tons of versatile lunch, dinner, and baking recipes. I got this recipe from an old General Mills recipe and took it up a notch. I had such fun and nostalgic childhood memories that took me back to when I would create all these wacky baked goods for my sisters and me in our toaster oven. Forgive me, mom, for almost burning the whole building down that one time. Oops! Since the ONLY one at home that eats cabbage, especially coleslaw, I took the hamburger cabbage recipe to a whole other level by …
Deep fried tender beef in a tempura batter with tender sauted vegetables topped with a flavorful sweet and sour sauce.
This dish was very simple in it’s design, but it needed just a dash of sprucing! Some advise for parents flying solo: make this when the chaos is at its minimum, for the sauce gods demand your undivided attention. I say that because our home runs on Loki energy, so there was much fire manipulation to avoid disasters. Sauces are something that I absolutely adore, and the original recipe had an extremely user-friendly sauce that could become a stroganoff of sorts with the addition of sour cream. That sounded like an amazing idea, but on purpose sounded better, and a …
