Wok's For Dinner: Barbecued Beef

Wok's For Dinner: Barbecued Beef by DeAna Boren

It's been awhile since I've made this particular recipe. I think this recipe came with the instructions I got for my first Crock-Pot. I like it because you can shred the beef, leave it as a whole roast, or cut it up into 1-inch chunks like I did. You can serve the barbecued beef alone, or put on sandwich buns.Barbecued…

Wok's For Dinner: Minestrone Soup

Wok's For Dinner: Minestrone Soup by DeAna Boren

Tonight's meal was inspired by this recipe that I found at Clay In His Hands. With the cooler weather, I wanted a hearty homemade soup to add to our menu plan. About the only time I get away with making soups is in the Winter (hubs thinks they are a poor choice for supper when it's hot outside).Minestrone…

Wok's For Dinner: Creamy Beef Over Noodles

Wok's For Dinner: Creamy Beef Over Noodles by DeAna Boren

Tonight's meal was inspired by a recipe from Steph, the Crockpot Lady over at A Year Of Slowcooking. She recently published her book, Make it Fast, Cook it Slow, which I am seriously considering buying. I want to try out some more of her recipes before I "commit," but from what I can tell, her recipes are fantastic. And tonight was no…

Leftovers ~ Schmeftovers

Leftovers ~ Schmeftovers by DeAna Boren

My husband refuses to eat leftovers. Seriously. Refuses!!Which has been quite a challenge for me, especially in the beginning. We had to eat everything off our plates, or I ended up taking leftovers to work for lunch. I just can't in good conscience throw food away. A MAJOR problem, though, quickly surfaced. I gained 50--yes,…
