Wednesday Recipe: Salisbury Steak

My family (except for the vegetarian) has always loved salisbury steak but I'm not fond of the prepackaged, frozen variety. This recipe is so easy and tastes much better than the frozen type.

SALISBURY STEAK

Ingredients:

10 3/4 oz can cream of mushroom soup

1 pound ground beef

1/3 cup dry bread crumbs

1 small onion, chopped

1 egg, beaten

1 Tbsp. vegetable oil

1 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms

*****
In large bowl mix 1/4 of soup, ground beef, bread crumbs, onion and eggs. Shape firmly into 6 patties.

In a 10" skillet over medium-high heat, cook patties in hot oil until browned on both sides. Remove patties from skillet and drain fat.

In same skillet combine soup and mushrooms. Heat to boiling.

Return patties to skillet. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 20 minutes or until patties are no longer pink. Stir sauce occasionally.

Tuesday Recipe: Oven Fried Pork Chops

I don't often cook pork because I find it less versatile than most other meats. However, this recipe is quick, easy, inexpensive and tasty. The breading makes a crispy coating that makes a nice contrast to the pork.

OVEN FRIED PORK CHOPS

Ingredients:
3 Tbsp butter or margarine
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbsp milk
1 cup cornbread stuffing mix
4 pork chops

*****
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Melt butter in a baking dish by placing it in the preheating oven.

Stir together egg and milk.

Crush cornbread stuffing mix into smaller crumbs and place them on a plate.

Dip pork chops into egg mixture then coat with stuffing mix. Place pork chops in the prepared pan.

Bake for about 20 minutes, then turn them over and bake for another 10 – 15 minutes (until pork is no longer pink). The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the pork chops.

Monday Recipe: Mac & Cheese w/ Veggies

Macaroni and Cheese seems to be a standby in our home. Since we started making it homemade, my kids aren't really fond of packaged mac & cheese. But with this recipe I can get them to happily eat an inexpensive box of prepared mac & cheese. The best part is I can make this very inexpensively since I always have olive oil and a jar of minced garlic on hand. I always buy zucchini and red bell pepper when they are on sale or available cheaply at the farmer's market. For the chicken, any leftover chicken will work or buy a rotisserie chicken.

MAC & CHEESE w/ VEGGIES

Ingredients:
10 ½ oz pkg macaroni and cheese, prepared per directions on the box
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 zucchini, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 cup cooked chicken, chopped

*****
Heat olive oil in skillet. Add garlic, zucchini, and red bell pepper. Saute over medium heat until veggies are tender (about 5 – 10 minutes).

Toss in cooked chicken and warm through.

Add mixture to prepared macaroni and cheese.

As a side dish I suggest this recipe:

TOASTED FRENCH BREAD

Ingredients:
1 loaf of French bread
½ cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
*****
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Slice bread in half horizontally (to expose the inside).

Combine butter and parmesan cheese. Spread mixture on exposed inside area of French bread.
Place on baking sheet and bake for 20 – 25 minutes, until mixture is melted and bread is browned.
