	Italian Meatballs by Salad Foodie Years ago I had an Italian neighbor who became a close friend. I always commented on her delicious meatballs and one day she shared the recipe with me. I have made them ever since about the same way. You can vary the meats using what's on hand, but I usually select lean ground beef, turkey, chicken or lamb, with an equal amount of…	16 votes 5 reviews 8 comments 51358 views

	Dad’s Tavern Chili by Salad Foodie As an adolescent I was commissioned by my dad to make a huge pot of chili for his tavern weekly, and I earned fifty cents a batch doing so! (This was before the era of food safety regulation and inspection - I just made it in our home kitchen!) Dad had taught me how to make his chili, and everyone agreed it was in a class of its…	4 votes 2 reviews 4 comments 21691 views
	Kofta (Kafta) Pita Sandwich by Salad Foodie Kofta is a recipe taught to me by Ahmad, a young man who lived with our family for two years. Kafta and Ahmad's Tabouli have become Middle Eastern standards in our family menus since then. I am sure ground lamb is the meat of choice for this creation, but we use a mixture of extra lean beef (85%) and ground turkey. I often season the…	1 vote 1 review 2 comments 18825 views
	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…	1 vote 5532 views

	Sauerbraten Abkürzung by Salad Foodie You already know what sauerbraten is, yes? Well to that I add Abkürzung: German for "short cut" (let's hope my Googled translation is correct.) After checking out several versions of sauerbraten, I blended a few ideas and ingredients from several and came up with my own time-saving formula! The roast cooks in a spicy sweet-sour…	1 vote 2 comments 3590 views
	Florentine Salisbury Steak by J. Gino Genovesi This dish is restaurant quality food which when served with mashed potatoes and green beans makes a delightful presentation.

It is economical, relatively fast and so good. I…	1 vote 1 review 4 comments 13525 views

	Skinny Salisbury Steak, a Diner Classic by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox Salisbury steak has been a classic dish long before TV dinners were in the picture. Look on the menu of most diners and you’ll probably see this hamburger patty-style steak. It’s usually smothered with rich, dark, gravy and served with mashed potatoes. This recipe is too but I’m trimming the fat and calories by using extra lean ground…	1 vote 2 comments 9300 views

	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…	1 vote 5203 views

By the time you return hours later the tantalizing waft of dinner will welcome you, and the beef will be fork-tender. Serve with mashed potatoes or rice for the mushroom gravy bonus.	1 vote 9052 views
