I had a coworker bring a bunch of grocery bags of recipe cards that her mother had passed along down to her, and this is only one of the over 300 cards that I picked out.
This is a special for more elegant dining, yet so easy to prepare and to cook. A very impressive dish with a unique taste and still fairly inexpensive.

This is a pretty simple breakfast burrito recipe. When I make it; I like to use some grated zuchinni, hash browns, and onions. But mixing things up is always a good thing. These freeze well, for midweek breakfast on the go.

At any party, appetizers and finger foods are a necessity, and this is one of my particular favorite things, and I will pick up a package just to eat for lunch occasionally.
Whenever we decide to have shrimp; I usually drag this recipe out; as I am not personally a fan of store bought alfredo sauce; it tastes funny D=
This is really fattening; so as you can guess; it doesn’t come out very often.

Falafel is very popular in the Middle East as a fast food. Vendors sell it on the street corners in Cairo. As a main dish, it is served as a sandwich, stuffed in pita bread with lettuce, tomatoes, and tahini. As an appetizer, it is served on a salad, or with hummus and tahini. Falafel is a favorite among vegetarians.
In Egypt, McDonald’s has their version of a falafel sandwich. Can you guess the name? McFalafel, of course.
A picnic wouldn’t be a picnic without crispy fried chicken. This rendition will knock your socks off. The chicken is soaked in a hot sauce and buttermilk mixture overnight before it’s fried. Don’t be uneasy about the amount of hot sauce. I promise a lot of the heat is cooked off during frying and the flavor is great.

I get tired of the ole Lemon pepper /lemon juice flavored fish, so this is similar enough to be familiar but different enough to wake up my taste buds. Still pretty simple to make.

My husband is a pizza freak, and actually likes homemade pizza better than any commercial pizzeria; so I guess some of the recipes I have must be pretty good for that to happen. But again, it’s nice to call for delivery when we are too tired to cook.

The famous egg drop soup. I adore going to the Chinese restaurant; and ordering this [to me] classic and important part of the meal. I love it when it has tofu and plenty of vegetables along with some egg noodles. It whets my appetite for the remaining meal.
This is one of our favorite meals; I will make a whole batch of it; and we will eat it all by ourselves within two or three days maximum. I will sometimes vary some of the ingredients for different themes; such as cornbread topping with green chili’s and salsa and corn; or spinach, onions, garlic, greenbeans, and very cheesy topping.
It’s usually better the next day. {or after the middle of the night tax deadline….}

McDonalds has the McMuffin; but these are tastier; and better for you. Not to mention you won’t have to go thru the drive thru to get them.
I was raised in the SouthWest, so have always enjoyed the local cuisine, and since I have moved away the only way to enjoy it is to make it myself.

This recipe calls for a beef rump roast, a cut that comes from the hind leg. Because the leg has been toughened by exercise, a rump roast is less tender than some cuts and is typically slow-cooked in stock or wine along with vegetables and herbs. Here, the roast is prepared in a pressure cooker, which speeds the process but still produces juicy, flavorful results.
