Italian Beef and Bean Stew

Sunday, January 9th, 2011

This crockpot meal is a lovely warming meal for a drizzley lazy Sunday :) It's similar to my other beef stew recipe, but with beans and tomatoes instead of mushrooms and potatoes. Italian Beef and Bean Stew (for at least a 4 quart slow cooker) Makes 4-6 hearty servings 2 tbsps vegetable oil ½ ...

A Nice Christmas

Sunday, December 26th, 2010

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas! We did. :-) Besides the orange french toast in the morning, we had a nice little standing rib roast with some roasted carrots and brussels sprouts. Emma got to gnaw on the bone for part of her ...

Chili

For dinner, I made my crockpot chili. It simmers all day and is quite wonderful, especially on a frigid night like tonight!

Barbecue Beef Brisket Sandwiches

Monday, November 22nd, 2010

I needed a quick dinner tonight that I could hold indefinitely on the stove since I had no idea how long it would take Shaun to get home tonight. Seattle does not deal well, or really at all with snow. It's been dusting all day, with accumulations of ...

Buffalo Burgers with Mushrooms

Tuesday, September 28th, 2010

Tonight's dinner was fast and easy - a combination of a couple previous recipes. I mixed one pound of ground buffalo with some kosher salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce, then formed it into four patties, which I pan fried. After flipping them over, I added 8 oz ...

Turkey Picadillo Stuffed Poblanos

Friday, September 17th, 2010

This is a healthy take on stuffed peppers. This is oven broiled and stuffed with a lean meat and veggie mixture rather than cheese. The picadillo is a Brazilian version, based on this Allrecipes version. Ground beef is more traditional, but the ground turkey is a good ...
