Finding new things to make with ground beef is becoming tougher and tougher. I am substituting it in as many dishes as I can. I found a great sale this week on lean ground beef for $2.87 a pound. I bought every package I could find. I hate paying over $3.00 a pound for meat…

Salisbury Steak Meatballs
So we have returned from the last of our summer vacations. It was a whirlwind tour back to New York to visit friends and family. We returned home last night about 10 pm from: in 86 hours we drove almost 2,000 miles in 24 hours of driving time; slept in three different places; ate at…
Parmesan Crab Hamburgers
So after having to pretend to be Cyber Woman today (and it really is pretend!) my computer is once again functioning. New mouse, new speakers and that pesky cord that needs to be plugged in so the keyboard actually functions is now back where it belongs. It has been a long day. But, I had…
Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Cheeseburgers
First full week of summer vacation begins and I am tired! I thought this was going to get easier. In a few weeks it will. My son asked why all our appointments are in the two weeks after school is out. He is right. I have been holding off as much as possible until school…
Barbecue Cowboy Casserole
After a doctor appointment we needed to decide if my daughter was going to dance class last night. She had just been seen by our pediatrician who diagnosed her with problems in her Flexor from overuse. The pediatrician recommended physical therapy and to cut back a bit on dance class. The doctor told her that…
Slow Cooker Ground Beef Philly Cheesesteaks
Mondays are always the worst day of the week in our house. It just seems to be hard to get the motivation going to start the week ahead. I usually try to not schedule any appointments or meetings on Mondays because I just cannot get moving. But, because our schedules are extra busy right now…
Cheddar Barbecue Burger with Special Sauce
I am counting the days until the end of Christmas vacation. I LOVE having my kids home but both have been sick since Christmas Eve and it is starting to wear them and me out. It is nothing horrible but this horrible sore throat, cough and lingering cold symptoms. They have been eating lots of…
Hamburger Steaks with Onion Gravy
I am still on the comfort food kick. I think I have had more types of mashed potatoes over the last two weeks than I can ever remember. I had hamburger thawing and as my children say, “Mom, can’t just make plain hamburgers.” So, off in search of a recipe I went. I found this…
Rochester Style Garbage Plate with Meat Sauce
We are going back “home” for a visit soon but we are still missing Rochester. On our last trip back I picked up 3 lbs. of Hoffman Hot Dogs. Now Zweigle’s are the hotdog of choice in Rochester, NY but we prefer Hoffman’s. I can say that now that we moved away without everyone looking…
Italian Cheese and Shells – Betty Crocker
Yes this really is boxed Betty Crocker Hamburger Helper Italian Cheese and Shells. We returned home from vacation the other night and I had almost nothing in my cupboards for dinner. My children took out what they thought was ground beef from the freezer. Well, it was ground country pork sausage! Several people I know…
Mexican Stuffed Shells
This recipe started from a Pinterest recipe for Mexican Stuffed Shells from The Girl Who Ate Everything. As you know if you have read any of my other posts or recipes I tweak my cooking to what I have on hand and what I know my family will eat. I loved the idea of this…
