Re-started the tradition of baking Christmas cookies last year (2007) and will add some new one in addition to them this year. So much fun!!!

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff I
Another good recipe! Use 2 1/2 pounds of stew meat, two cans of golden mushroom soup and one can of beef broth. Browned the meat (used a little flour, garlic powder and salt and pepper to coat) and sauteed the onions before putting it in the slow cooker. Very tasty for a little effort.

Homemade Chicken Cacciatore, Sicilian-Style
What a great dish! My husband and I both enjoyed it. Few changes/additions as per reviews and to suit our taste. Added more garlic than called for. Used two cans of diced tomatoes, one can of stewed tomatoes and one 8oz can of tomato sauce. Used Shiraz (because that's what I had opened). Left out the garlic salt but added basil, oregano, red pepper. Used all chicken thighs, and used green and Italian pepper, carrots and celery. Thickened with a little flour. Very gourmet. A keeper.

Spinach Lentil Soup
This is comfort food! Used brown rice and more than doubled the amount of kielbasa. Halved the red pepper and it still had a nice kick to it. Used four cans of chicken broth and one can of beef broth instead of water. Included some chopped garlic, chopped celery, escarole instead of spinach, a sprinkle of paprika and two bay leaves. Came out more like a stew than a soup. Easy, quick and really good!
