Years ago, I would clean houses to help support my children. Often, my clients would be cooking when I arrived. If it smelled good, I would ask for the recipe. This recipe came from one of my customers, a dear, sweet lady, Mrs.Vick. It may not be authentic Chinese, but it sure is tasty. It […]
Main Dish – Beef
When I hear someone is a “meat and potatoes” kind of person, I first think of beef. Whether it’s a hearty stew or pot roast, these recipes are the beefiest!
Cheeseburger Pie
I came across this recipe years ago on the back of a box of Bisquick and it quickly became a family favorite. It’s a “no fail” recipe, that you can switch around ingredients to suit your families taste. For example, you can swap the cheddar to Monterey Jack, add some chopped jalapeno peppers or add […]
Black Bean Taco Casserole
This tasty dish, shared at a pot luck luncheon, was the talk of the lunchroom. Everyone, including me, requested the recipe. Thanks to Monica, this is now in my “easy dinners” recipe file. It goes great with a side of Guacamole, tortilla chips and a dollop of sour cream.
Beef Teriyaki
It’s been over 40 years since my old friend Bong shared this recipe with me. It’s quick and easy and oh so tasty. It is served over rice and pairs well with sauteed spinach and garlic.
Beef Stew
Talk about flavor…this pot of stew will wake up every taste bud in your mouth. Beef, spices, veggies, wine…what more could you ask for? Okay, maybe a slice of hot, buttered bread to sop up the marvelous gravy would be nice.
Beef Short Ribs, Stewed
Old fashioned stewed short ribs just like Mama used to make! Surrounded with carrots and potatoes and baked to perfection! Tender and juicy, chuck full of flavor.
Kraut Burgers aka Runzas
While visiting my sister Joan in Colorado, she served Kraut Burgers for dinner. They were so delicious, I just had to have the recipe. It’s now a family favorite. I make sure I make extras to enjoy the next day for lunch!
Stuffed Green Peppers
If you’re looking for a tasty, down home goodness dish, look no further. This is an economical dish that warms the tummy. It’s sure to become a family favorite on a cool fall or cold winter’s night. Thanks to This person who showed me this recipe
Mother’s Hamburgers
These incredible loose ground beef sandwiches are cheesy and delicious! Special thanks to my old friend Maureen Frost who shared this recipe with me years ago. She would make these on Halloween for her grandchildren to enjoy before “hitting the road” for Trick or Treating. Although Maureen has passed on, I’m certain her children and […]
