Cuban-style Steaks in Garlic-Lime Marinade

Cuban-style Steaks in Garlic-Lime Marinade by John Spottiswood

These steaks are a treat and a great way to make an inexpensive cut of meat memorable. You can use bottom round (best), top round, or a thin cut sirloin for this dish. The steaks should be cut about a 1/2 thick. Mine were a little thicker, so I pounded them with a mallet to thin them. In Cuban restaurants, this recipe is called…

Tacos Al Carbon

Tacos Al Carbon by John Spottiswood

This is a simple steak taco recipe that emphasizes the flavor of the meat and the grill. You can spice it up by adding extra cumin or a little chili powder, jalapeno, or cayenne if you like, but it is delicious as is. Make sure to chop any additional fixings you like: I used cilantro, avocado and tomato...but they are quite tasty…

Grilled Flanken Style Korean Short Ribs (Galbi or Kalbi)

Grilled Flanken Style Korean Short Ribs (Galbi or Kalbi) by John Spottiswood

I adapted this recipe from one in Bon Appetit and another from Chef John (foodwishes.blogspot.com). Chef John recommended blending an asian pear into the marinade to help tenderize the meat. I didn't have an asian pear, so I substituted a fuji apple and reduced the sugar slightly. I thought the resulting marinade, and ribs, were…

Nanny Burgers

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

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…

Easy spaghetti baked in oven. Add ingredients you like such as mushrooms, onion, garlic, etc. or different types of cheese to make different tastes. I really loved this recipe, easy to make and tasty as lasagna.

Mini Meatloaves

Mini Meatloaves by Carolinaheartstrings

I held out as long as I could. I really did. I had to make meatloaf for our “Food from the Heartland” month. It is the ultimate comfort food to me on a cold winter evening and one of my favorite meals, usually with mashed potatoes and green beans. The perfect combination. This time I decided instead of making a whole meatloaf I…

Ruth's All American Casserole

Ruth's All American Casserole by Carolinaheartstrings

July’s recipes have an All American theme and what could be more “All American” than meat and potatoes right? My friend at work brought me a wonderful Church cookbook to look at and this recipe caught my eye. It was her father’s favorite and her mother had submitted it to this cookbook nearly 25 years ago. An oldie but a goodie…
