I found this recipe on allrecipes and it is now my son's favorite meal

Crock Pot Stroganoff

1 lb cubed beef stew meat
1 can golden mushroom soup
1/4 can of water
worstershire sauce (I have subed in A1 in a pinch) about 1/4 cup
1/2 diced onion (more or less depending on how much you like onions), I have also added the minced onion to this in a pinch

cook on low all day, when you get home add in 1/2brick of cream cheese (lowfat works fine), stir and turn to high for about 1/2 hour or until cream cheese is encorporated

while cheese is melting, make your favorite noodles- I like the the standard egg noodles.

serve over the noodles with a vegitable of your choice.

Since my kids aren't big meat eaters, I usually double everything but the meat to make extra gravy and then have enough leftovers for dinner the next night as well!

This is a baked potato soup recipe I make a lot-- I make it in big batches and then freeze it.

INGREDIENTS
12 slices bacon
2/3 cup margarine
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
7 cups milk
6 large baked potatoes, peeled and cubed
4 green onions, chopped
1 1/4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup sour cream
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper


DIRECTIONS
Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium heat until browned. Drain, crumble, and set aside.
In a stock pot or Dutch oven, melt the margarine over medium heat. Whisk in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in milk, whisking constantly until thickened. Stir in potatoes and onions. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
Reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Mix in bacon, cheese, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until cheese is melted.

OK so a couple weeks ago I was cutting up onions and I cried for like an hour. How do I make that not happen?

I thought you were supposed to put bread in your mouth and hold it there while you chop. I haven't tried it, but this is not a joke. Really.

Yup, it works. Bread or a cracker.

This sounds insane, but open your freezer door and stick your face in for a few seconds. The tears go away quickly. (I saw Bobby Flay do this on Food Network once and I tried it and it worked!)
