Grilled Flank Steak with Cucumber Lime Salsa

May 8, 2013

Spring is SUPPOSED to be here, but I’m not feeling it. It’s still cold and rainy, but the spring produce is coming in and I’m not going to ignore fresh cucumbers! I had leftover roasted spaghetti squash and a nice piece of flank steak waiting to be be put to good use. …

Simmered Cabbage with Beef

March 22, 2013

At the end of a work week, often I have lonely vegetables left in the fridge and I’m out of ideas on what to do with them. That was the case this week. I had a head of cabbage, some meatballs, and a shriveled up shallot that I refused to let die alone. …

Real food for the Hungry folks

March 8, 2013

I’m HUNGRY this week! I had 3 hard days of workouts and I’m not hydrated enough and now I’m craving serious food. I don’t want snacks. I don’t want *gasp* “chick food”. I want red meat. I found this recipe from the Pioneer Woman and while I wish she would disclose her original …

Beef…

February 16, 2013

This is a post of visual feasts. Bacon wrapped beef. These are tenderloins. Not the end tip fillet mignon, but the center loin fillet. Cheaper and ALMOST cut-with-a-fork tender, in my opinion. Roasted sweet potatoes and parsnips. Olive oil. Goodness. This is the last day …

Beef Roast with Turnip Greens

November 5, 2012

This is my favorite time of year when the slow cooker is in use often and hot soups and comfort meals are the standard. I love a good slow cooked roast all year, but I actually crave it on cold days when I can get home and into warm layers for a …

Salisbury Steak that won’t cause a coronary.

March 28, 2012

I grew up on “hamburger steak and gravy”. I made it several hundred times before I went to college and I bet I made it a different way each time. Hamburger steak and meatloaf were like blank canvases for me. I could experiment with all kinds of flavors. Most worked out great. Some did not. [...]

Worst Cooks in America. Let’s sling noodles.

February 26, 2012

I love this show. It has nothing to do with the train wrecks every week and everything to do with Anne Burrell kicking Bobby Flay’s avocados. This past week, they had a stir fry challenge. I’ve made stir fry a gazillion different ways. Imagine my surprise when I thought both of their versions looked great [...]
