Beef Stew is a great way to use up your fresh vegetables before they go bad or if you want a complete meal in a bowl. Stew meat with potatoes, carrots, onion, celery, diced tomatoes, garlic and herbs. This is a fool proof meal that will leave you wanting more. Layer the potatoes, onions, carrots, celery, Worcestershire sauce and […]
For Christmas I received a recipe book called Nostalgic Recipes. This easy hearty Clam Chowder recipe was from the 1950’s and it uses canned evaporated milk. It would make a nice cup of soup or a bowl of soup as a meal. Drain the clam liquid into a measuring cup. Add enough water to give you 1-1/3 cups total. […]
Homemade chicken broth tastes so much better than store bought cans. Sure it’s easier to open up a can but you can’t get this rich, delicious broth from a can. You can freeze it, refrigerate or use it immediately with your favorite recipe. Place 3 pounds (approximately) of small whole chicken, or chicken parts, in a large stock pot. […]
It doesn’t get any easier than this! Everything cooks in one casserole dish or small roaster in the oven with very little prep work and plenty of flavor. Spray a 4 quart casserole dish or small roaster with cooking oil. Place the prepared potato slices on the bottom without overlapping. Spread the ground beef loosely on top and then pepper […]

This is a good old fashioned stove top Hearty Beef Stew with potatoes, carrots, onion, green pepper and turnip. We are not fans of turnips, and I don’t like green peppers, so I left them out. Cut the beef into 1” cubes discarding any bone or large pieces of fat. I was told by a butcher never to buy beef […]
Who doesn’t love a meal where the meat is so tender that you don’t even need a knife to cut it? The flavor of this meat is spot on and makes plenty for a family. I serve mine with mashed potatoes and a vegetable. Combine the flour, salt and pepper. Cut the round steak into serving size pieces. Dredge the […]
Similar to the recipe called Haluski, this is a complete meal made on the stovetop in about 30 minutes. Made with cabbage, onion, noodles and kielbasa, this has a delicious flavor that is even tasty as leftovers, if you have any. You could add bacon instead of kielbasa, both or leave the meat out altogether. Cook the noodles al dente […]
It’s nice to have this dry mix ready in your pantry to combine with sour cream any time you want. Combine the four dry ingredients and store them in a cool dark place until you are ready to use them. Add 2 Tbsp of the dry ingredients to the sour cream to turn it into a delicious dip for chips […]
Growing up, this was the only way my mom made the stuffing for inside the turkey. Stuffing that didn’t fit in the turkey was put into a casserole dish and baked separately. Golden brown on the outside, moist and tender on the inside. Every Thanksgiving my family wants to eat Stove Top Stuffing with our dinner, not my choice. Now […]
