A Few Recipes.

So, here are a few of my own recipes that we enjoy that are almost weekly staples in our household. Most of these recipes are for 2 people but are easy adaptable. 

Chicken Parmigiana 

2 Large boneless skinless chicken breast sliced in half.

32 Oz. sauce (whichever you prefer, we like meat flavored)

2 Cups Mozz cheese

3/4 Cups Parm cheese

2 Eggs

1.5 cups bread crumbs (we use seasoned panko I add garlic powder, onion powder, Salt, and Pepper)

Olive oil

Pre-heat oven to 350.

I slice the chicken in half lengthwise then each half in half width wise, dip in egg, then in breadcrumbs. Add olive oil to a pan on Med-high heat. I fry the chicken until fully cooked about 6 minutes on each side, cooking times will vary depending on thickness of chicken. 

Pour half the sauce into the bottom of a baking dish, add the chicken, sprinkle with parm cheese, cover with the remaining sauce.

I bake the dish, uncovered for 15 minutes then add the mozz cheese and bake for another 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted but not quite browned. Serve with spaghetti. 

My Favorite Meatloaf

2 Lbs. ground beef

1 Egg, lightly beaten 

3/4 Cup breadcrumbs

2 TBSP ketchup, plus more for top

2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce

1/2 onion, diced

1 Tsp. crushed garlic

Salt

Pepper

Pre-heat oven to 375

Mix all ingredients together, form into loaf pan or if your like me and don't own one yet (I know, right!?) form a loaf and use a baking dish. Once formed, rub top with ketchup.

Bake for 1-1.5 hours. 

Beef Stroganoff

1 Lb. ground beef

1 onion diced

1 Lb. egg noodles

1 10.5 can beef consume

1 10.5 can beef broth

2 TBSP flour

1 10.5 can cream of mushroom soup

2 TBSP ketchup

1 TBSP Worcestershire sauce

8 Oz. sour cream

 

In a large, deep pan, brown ground beef with onion, drain fat. add back to pan. Add beef consume and 1/2 can of beef broth. In remaining broth, mix flour, add to pan and stir to thicken. Add in ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and cream of mushroom soup. Remove from heat, add sour cream until mixed. Boil egg noodles. Add beef mixture to noodles. We serve ours with mashed potatoes on the side.
