Nanny Burgers by Denise Sherin

This is a simple dish my Nanny (grandmother) always made and my Mom made them for us, and now I make them for my son. They are just hamburgers baked in brown gravy. But the trick is to flour the burgers and brown them before baking. It makes the burgers soft and juicy but it helps keep the gravy thickened during baking. We serve…

Quick Meatloaf & Potatoes by Salad Foodie

Start to finish this can be on the table in 30 minutes, which represents 15 minutes of prep and 15 minutes cook time in the microwave. This meal-in-one recipe comes from the heyday of microwave cooking in the 80's and 90's, and is always a family pleaser. Of course it can be baked in a 350 degree F. conventional oven instead, for an…

Date Nite/Movie Nite In Deep Dish Pizzas by Smokinhotchef

These pizzas are just plain awesome!! I made these over the weekend for the kids and grown-ups alike!! There isn't much cleanup and the Italian loaf serves as a virtual edible pan, grouted out and filled with pizza pleasure!!

Zucchini Meatballs in Cream Sauce - Microwave Quick! by Salad Foodie

Several good reasons to save this recipe: to use up zucchini; to keep the kitchen cool by microwaving the main dish; and because the meatballs are loaded with veggies, are moist and creamy. This is one of my two all-time FAVS from the peak microwave cookbook era of the 80's and 90's. If you prefer, use homemade cream sauce in place of…

This recipe is very popular in European countries: in Austria it’s called schnitzel, in the US it’s called a cutlet. We cook cutlets with beef and pork, even with fish and chicken. The main thing the fillet/ or loin has to be thin. It’s a great dish for a weekday dinner, 5-10 minutes to cook if the meat is ready to work with (not…

Stufato di manzo Italiano ( Beef Stew) by J. Gino Genovesi

Stews have been around for many years, in many nations with such diverse recipes. All types of meats are used in what some call stew. It is sometimes called "poor mans meal" because one can use many types of meats and vegetables. In my family we like stews and serve over mashed potatoes, rice and with corn and other vegetables.…

Mom's Pinwheels (Stuffing topped burgers) by Denise Sherin

This is a recipe Mom made when we were growing up to help stretch a buck. And we all loved Pinwheels. Mom made them with her own Bread Stuffing, so it was flavors from Thanksgiving Stuffing all year round. My grown brother called me a few years ago asking if I could tell him how Mom made Pinwheels, he now makes them for his family…

Chili made my way by Candice Goodyear

This chili has a little bit of spice to it. I searched and searched and couldn't find a recipe that I liked so I took my top three and made my own. My husband loves it, his dad thinks it is too spicy but heck on a cold winter's day it really warms the body up.

Cheesy n' Crispy Shepard's Casserole by Smokinhotchef

This recipe is a homage to the classic Shepard's Pie. A shower of cheddar cheese compliments the crisp crunchiness of tater tots that replace the traditional mashed potatoes. Crushed sour cream and onion potato chips add the starchy thickness to the filling. This one dish,three course meal goes scandeliciously with a simple green…
