What are you having for supper?

It is Taco Thursday at my house.

Have you ever tried a biscuits and gravy casserole?

No. Sounds pretty good!

#2 son wanted to make sammitches, so he did: nice crusty french hoagie roll with ham, genoa salami, mozzarella and provolone cheese, tomatoes, pickles, mayo/mustard mix. Dad included jalapenos on his, and the girls and I had these sweet/hot peppers I found the other day. Put them together, wrapped them in foil, and baked for 15 min. Yummy! Had these with homemade oven fries, steamed asparagus, and crispy baby carrots and snow peas.

Thank goodness the hubby made a lot of lasagna a couple of weeks ago. We split it up into several smaller ones and froze them for nights I just can't cook. Have some butter lettuce and a couple Roma tomatoes for salad.

A friend from my old restaurant job called me to ask for a ride home. He does that pretty often since I live near there. And he gave me a carton of bourbon chicken with rice! He said Uber would have cost him $12 The chicken was good! And I still got a lot left. I was glad to do it. When I got home from work I was about to toaster oven one of these. My freezer's crammed to the gills with them. On sale a couple months ago, 88 cents! How can you lose?

Soooo good! You basically just bake the biscuits on top of the gravy (and then try to not eat the entire pan). I make mine vegetarian with a peppered white sauce and veggie sausage (and a hind of maple syrup). You can use either cheater biscuits or homemade. It's delicious either way.

We'll likely get take-out (I think) - still haven't decided, but I have a couple of boneless, skinless chicken breasts if I feel like cooking tonight.

Today I made a nice ground turkey chili with fresh sliced mushrooms, chopped red pepper (the sweet ones), white onion, kidney beans and stewed tomatoes. I don't like it too hot but I did add some Hungarian hot paprika along with the chili powder and ground cumin.

It's simmering on low on top of the stove. We'll probably just have a side salad and maybe some yellow corn tortilla chips with that. (Milk for me and chocolate milk for Josh).

I should pop into the grocery store to get some green onion and sour cream as a garnish (we already have grated cheddar cheese).

Some of the recipes I saw online had corn niblets as well - does anyone put that in their chili?

I made breaded pork chops, green beans, mash potatoes, canned fruit and banana muffins of hell. I am not that good of a cook and muffins prove it. I was suppose to get either 12 little muffins or 6 big muffins. Yet some how I got 11 little muffins and 6 big muffins. Not sure what I did wrong....the big ones look like lumpy creepy monster muffins...taste good thou.

Any time you make something baked I'd hope people would appreciate the effort (they might not win a blue ribbon at the county fair, but as long as they taste good then you deserve an A for effort!).

I made some muffins recently and I forgot that you are only supposed to gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry, with as little mixing as possible. Mine turned out pretty tough. The squirrel and rabbit in the back yard seemed to appreciate them at least

My son was tickle pink. He said he eat whole army of mini muffins. I bet the rabbits and squirrel like them a lot. *hugs* thank you

Trying a new recipe today with a piece of steak I wasn't sure what to do with:

Pepper Steak


Ingredients

• 1 pound sirloin steak, pounded with a meat hammer until tender and flattened
  
• 1 tsp paprika/garlic salt to taste
  
• 4 garlic cloves, crushed
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup sliced onions
• 1 orange bell pepper, sliced
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 3 stalks of celery, diced
• 3 medium carrots, diced
  
• 1 can stewed tomatoes (473 ml) or 15 oz.
• 1/4 cup boiling water
  
• 1/2 - 1 cup unsweetened apple juice (recipe called for beef broth but I just substituted)
• 
  
• ¼ cup water
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 3 cups hot cooked rice

Directions

Season the steak with paprika and rest at room temperature while preparing remaining ingredients. Pound the heck out of the steak with a metal steak hammer (tenderizer) then sprinkle with garlic salt.

Sautee steak in olive oil over medium/high heat until steak is just browned.

Add sliced onions then once they are a bit wilted, put the steak and onions into a slow cooker set at low for 8 hours. Dump in the can of stewed tomatoes and use about 1/4 cup of boiled water to rinse out the can.

Add the chopped celery, carrots and sliced bell peppers. Crush the 4 cloves of garlic in, using a garlic press, then add the juice (or broth if you like).

Continue to cook with the lid on for 8 hours or if it is on a timer, it will just keep warm after the 8 hours are up.

This part is optional, but nice if you like a thicker sauce:

Combine water, cornstarch, and soy sauce. Stir into steak and continue cooking on high heat about 30 minutes or until thickened. Serve over freshly cooked rice.
