Simple Beef Flavored Gravy

Reviewed: Jun. 2, 2011

this makes the best roux for beef gravy for beef stew i didn't have jar gravy on hand for a recipe and so i used this to substitute betty crocker beef gravy i will never use jar gravy again this i will be using over and over for making delicious beef stew.....for the the best beef stew use the following stuff 1 pound beef boneless sirloin 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 teaspoon garlic pepper 1 bag (1 pound) frozen potatoes, carrots, celery and onions....Cut beef into thin strips (beef is easier to cut if partially frozen, about 1 1/2 hours). Heat oil and garlic pepper in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook beef in oil, stirring occasionally, until brown.Stir in vegetables and gravy; reduce heat to medium. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender.

Messy Taco Salad

Reviewed: Apr. 23, 2011

i had to doctor this up a lil after doing this it was awesome: i wouldn't do the thousand island unless you like it sweet and just plain yuck... i used another viewers comment and did ranch dressing mixed with taco seasoning for the dressing. also when browning your meat use a lil bit of salsa but the mild kind to it with a lil bit of cumin, chilli seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste then add a can of drained and rinsed kidney beans. add meat mixture onto of crushed tortilla chips, lettuce, cheese and tomatoes, then add mixture of ranch dressing with taco seasoning mixed in the dressing to it and yummier :) and boyfriend went for 2nd's after this lil bit of tweaking.

WONDERFUL GRILL RECIPE FOR A STEAK TOO!!!

Sloppy Joes II

Reviewed: Feb. 26, 2011

i made this for lunch 2/26/11 this was good i didn't have brown sugar so i used regular sugar and 3 tsp of white sugar. i used garlic salt instead of salt and added a bit of garlic powder and onion powder cause it needed a lil more seasoning. it does have a strong mustard flavor i found myself using a lil extra sugar to calm the tang since i like it a bit more sweet and less tangy.

Chicken Voila

Reviewed: Feb. 9, 2011

i made this today for dinner on 2/9/11 and well considering i have a horrible cold and was sick of making chicken noodle soup i gave this a try and it was really good i had to add a lil more garlic to it to my taste and added onion powder to it and no salt seasoning they sell in the dollar store for a buck...and i would recommend making a roux of flour water paste then adding to thicken just don't go over board with the flour water paste or it will taste more like flour so i just added a bit more broth with butter added to the broth while was heating up and go easy on the salt cause the broth has enough salt in it. a very good starter recipe i served it with instant mash potatoes and green beans.

Campbell's® Healthy Request® Chicken and Pasta Primavera

Reviewed: Feb. 5, 2011

well i just got done making this for dinner tonight on 2/5/2011 and gave it 4 stars because it lacks flavor.so... this is ok BUT with modifications it is good but you need to up the garlic powder and it does need salt and definitely more Parmesan cheese so i say go by taste that's what i did or you will not like it because it is a little too bland without seasoning....oh and i used fettuccine noodles and not egg noodles to get the sauce to stick better to the noodles. And for my frozen vegetable blend i used the frozen California blend of carrots,broccoli, and cauliflower. I also still used cream of mushroom soup it called for but i used two cans and more milk to make it creamier.

Chris' Bay Area Burger

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2011

i followed most of the recipe but decided to do garlic salt instead of salt since i love garlic and also added a bit of montreal steak seasoning to it to give it even more flavor. i made this along with some steak fries seasoned with garlic salt and montreal steak seasoning. they were really good with adding the galric salt and montreal steak seasoning i cooked them in my city slider that i got from as seen on tv and turned out great :).

Easy Pasta Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2011

DO NOT USE WATER! & BOIL NOODLES BY ITSELF...It is good after tweaking it.....this needs some definite tweaking i made this today and here goes brown the chicken in a electric skillet with it sprayed with non stick cooking spray and cut to bite size pieces. while that is cooking take 2 sauce pans and cooked your veggies in one and rotini egg noodles in the other. For the veggies i used a California blend of broccoli,carrots and cauliflower. When the chicken is done add one can of cream of mushroom soup and one soup can of milk. then add chopped garlic, garlic salt, pepper, 1-2 tablespoon margarine,onion powder, and pepper. ( i didn't measure i went by tasting it as i was adding seasoning) then drain your veggies and add it to the skillet and let it simmer and stir frequently. After it becomes a creamy consistency add your rotini egg noodles, and a few sprinkles of parmesan cheese and your done :). next time i might try also adding some corn to it it is sorta similar to those viola dinners you see in the supermarket but once again needed more flavor it was a easy starter recipe.
