chilli sgetti - Marilyn Style

I sauteed some onion, garlic and green pepper, then I added the ground beef and just browned it lightly.... Then I added a 14 oz can of diced tomatoes, 1 small can of tomato paste, plus a can of water, 1 bay leaf, a tsp of vinegar, 1 tsp of worcheshire sauce, some chili powder, some cumin powder, salt and pepper and a pinch of sweet paprika..... .. I brought that all to a boil and then I dumped it all in the crock-pot where I will let it simmer for about 8 hours... we will see how it comes out....

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff

INGREDIENTS:

* 1 pound cubed beef stew meat

* 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed golden mushroom soup (I used just plain old cream of mushroom soup)

* 1/2 cup chopped onion

* 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

* 1/4 cup water

* 1 or 2 tsps of soy sauce (this wasn't in the recipe but I added it)

* 1/2 to 1 garlic clove, chopped (this also wasn't in the recipe but I added it)

* 4 ounces cream cheese

DIRECTIONS:

1. In a slow cooker, combine the meat, soup, onion, Worcestershire sauce and water.

2. Cook on Low setting for 8 hours, or on High setting for about 5 hours. Stir in cream cheese just before serving. It might be kind of runny but once you add the cream cheese it thickens up a bit ...

*you might want to double the recipe good.gif YUM!!! YUM!!!!

THAT was hilarious, Autumn!

My Easter dinner didn't happen either. I woke up feeling blah and got progressively worse from there. Hubby picked up some ribs from the bbq place on his way home from work and I had soup. We had been planning on having a nice meal (monster sea scallops and shrimp on spinach salad) then heading downtown to sit on the 2nd floor balcony of our favourite cafe while sipping a glass of wine and watching the world go by. Instead I put the monster sea scallops and shrimp in the freezer and went to bed.

This morning I have woken up feeling about 75%, so tonight we are having ham, cabbage, pickled beets, french green beans and carrots, and parsley potatoes. All because Kathryn's dinner sounded so good and I am starving.

The Chicken Tortilla Soup and the Caribbean Taco Salad sounds like something I'd try, Marilyn. Thank you. (Though I'll omit the brown sugar in the taco salad recipe. We're not too fussed on sugary food.)

You know, every time I see a Kraft food recipe I'm hurtled back through time to when we used to watch Ed Sullivan or Red Skelton on TV and the Kraft recipe commercials would come on. Well, no offense to anyone who loves their stuff but..... EWWWWWWWWWWW. I'd be sitting there horrified (yes, even as a kid) at the stuff they'd mix together and the whole you're-not-a-good-mom/wife-if-you-don't-serve-your-family-this-shite thing. Anyway.... I guess that's the long version of why you won't find me making any Kraft recipes.

autumnchik...probably not nice to laugh, but that was a funny Easter dinner story...one that you'll always remember. Sorry you're feeling sickly Crikey! I have just what you need!

Hope that makes you feel a little better.

We had a fabulous Easter dinner, with some ham that I just had to warm up, but made a glaze. I grilled some lamb chops with a lovely dry rub in my Foreman Grill. Made a vegetable casserole, and some Gruyere scalloped potatoes. Mmmmmmmmm

Have to get something to eat for breakfast now before I have to leave!

Tonight I'm going to make some asparagus soup, and have a ham and cheese loaf sandwich that I do in the oven.

I'm pretty sure ham has nothing to do with religion.... tradition, maybe, but not religion. But I get where you're coming from.

[Krikit 1,164]

Ohmygosh, Carla. That soup looks YUMMY. You don't happen to have the recipe that goes along with that, do you?

Lamb chops..... I thought I had some in the freezer so I didn't bother picking any up while I was at the Fresh Market 45 minutes from here. Rummaged through the freezer until my fingers were numb but couldn't find them so we must have eaten them already. Guess I'll be making another run to Fresh Market.

Thanks for the recipes Marilyn! I will be trying them. I have already made the beef stroganoff in the past and hubby loved it

Sorry you are not feeling well, Crikey. Hope you get to enjoy the scallops and shrimp soon.

Carla, YOUR Easter meal sounds yummy. What was in the veggie casserole? Have you posted a recipe for the asparagus soup?

[~Nini~ 2]

I just put up some Japanese-style pickles, so in a few days (or tonight!) I'll be sure to report back.

Sorry you aren't feeling well Crikey!!

We did have the steak for dinner last night, I also got sidetracked making salad which resulted in the smoke alarm going off, so I said to my Husband 'your steak is done'! - however the steak was not burnt - all good

I'm not sure what's for dinner tonight, maybe pork chops.
