Easy Corn Chowder

Fry up three pieces of bacon in a medium sized sauce pan, and then use the drippings to saute a finely chopped onion and a finely chopped green pepper. Chop up a few pieces of bacon into fine bits and toss those into the mix. Set aside.

In a soup pot, combine 3 tbs melted margarine with 3 tbs flour. Combine over low heat. Add 1/4 gal. 2% milk. Stir out any clumps. Add your bacon and vegetable mixture, along with a bag of frozen corn (off the cob).

Bring to a slow boil, lower temperature and cover. Simmer for 15 minutes. Add salt and lots of pepper to taste. You may want to add more milk to keep the mixture from getting too thick.

bobby, this ones for you(only leave out the beans)

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
1 can chopped tomatoes
1 pound ground chuck
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
i can tomato puree
1 can chopped jalapenos
2 cans (19 oz each) kidney beans

heat the oil in a dutch oven or stock pot over medium heat. add onion and bell pepper and cook until onion is translucent. add garlic and saute for one minute. raise the heat to medium high and add the gound chuck,chili powder and cumin. stir and cook until meat is browned, about 10 minutes.(if the meat renders a lot of fat, drain the meat mixture) add the tomato puree , the can of tomatoes and the cans of beans, if you are using beans. stir until blended. turn heat to lowest setting and let the chili simmer for a while. if the chili is too thick for your liking, you can add more tomato puree or water until you get the consistency you prefer. you can also add more cumin and chili powder if you like your chili super hot. for those who prefer less of a punch to their chili, leave out the canned jalapenos and reduce the chili powder to 1 tbsp. and the cumin to 2 tsps.

Easy BBQ Beef (great for football parties):

-Roast Beef (figure about 1/2 pound per person)
-Can of Beer
-1 small onion, chopped
-Salt, Pepper
and
-BBQ sauce of your choice (1 bottle)
-kaiser rolls

Put your roast into a slow cooker, and pour beer over it. Add any of the spices you care to add, but this is one time that less is more. Cook until it's ready to fall apart (I'd give you a time, but since every slow cooker is different, it's impossible to do).

Leaving the au jus in the slow cooker, take the roast out, and shred, using two forks to pull it apart. (When this is done with pork, this is what's referred to as "pulled pork") Put it all back into the slow cooker, keeping it on low or warm.

To serve, put out the slow cooker with tongs, the BBQ sauce (warmed about 2 minutes in the microwave) in a separate bowl, and the rolls. Make sure your guests know that they can mix the sauce with the beef, or eat the beef au jus.

If you're having a lot of people, and have access to two slow cookers, you can cook & shred both roasts, then add the BBQ sauce to the one but not the other.

Should you have leftovers of the au jus one, you have either a great base for soup or a poor man's stroganoff (drain all but a cup of the liquid (save it and freeze it for soup!), boil noodles and put on plates, then whip 1 small can of drained sliced mushrooms & 1 pint of sour cream into the beef & juice; serve over noodles).

Reduced Fat Homemade Mac and Cheese

2 cups macaroni noodles, uncooked (I use whole wheat sometimes)
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 cups nonfat or 1% milk
1 1/2 to 2 cups reduced fat cheddar cheese

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside when done.
3. While noodles are cooking, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter over low to medium-low heat in a 3 quart saucepan. When melted, stir in flour, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir for about 1 minutes to break down any major lumps.
4. Remove pan from burner and add the 2 cups of milk. Whisk to combine, and cook, stirring continuously, until the milk comes to a boil. Boil and stir for one minute.
5. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in cheese until melted. Stir noodles into cheese sauce, and pour mixture into ungreased 2 quart baking dish.
6. Bake 20-25 minutes or until heated through.

Made this last night - goes really well with greenbean! Supposedly, this recipe serves four, but it was fully consumed by two boys and me last night... (ETA: the 23 and 25-year-old boys didn't know that this was almost healthy)

My meatloaf recipe is pretty simple.. but again, I don't really use measurements, so I'll try here...

Whip together with a whisk:
1 egg
about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of worcestershire sauce
half an onion

Add enough Progresso Italian bread crumbs to soak up the liquids
Add about 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese

Mix 2 pounds of ground beef in with the above mixture. Bake at 350 for an hour in a loaf pan. Ketchup on top while baking is optional (my kids prefer it without ketchup).

Rudey: These Southern folk are telling you to use Vidalia onions but you'll only find them up north in summer. Try Yellow Texas Sweet Onions (available all year in Detroit, should be in Chicago too) and, as Jill said, cut them when they're cold. Don't get your face too close to the chopping board. You'll be ok.

ETA: It took me three years to perfect our family fudge recipe, so it's far from fool proof..

Sounds good. I found a secret when looking for a meatloaf recipe on foodtv.com - add a little heavy cream. I don't know why, but it really does make a difference.

Does anyone have a good pot roast recipe?

1 can of cream of celery soup
1 tsp chili powder
1 cup of chicken broth
12 slices of American cheese
1 lb browned ground beef (or turkey)

In a 9x13 backing dish pour 1/2 of the doritos. Combine rotel tomatos, cream of chicken soup, celery soup, chicken broth and chili powder in a bowel. add 1/2 of the soup mixter to the doritos and layer 1/2 of the ground beef on top, followed by 1/2 of the cheese. Then layer the rest of the chips, soup, beef, and cheese.

This is great for potlucks or just a good dinner. And you can use the baked doritos and low fat cheese... and it's just as yummy!

Broccoli Casserole
(This is a must from me on Thanksgiving!)

2 packages frozen broccoli, cooked & drained
1 can mushroom soup
2 eggs
4 ounces finely shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 C. mayonnaise
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 C. cracker or bread crumbs
butter or margerine

Set oven at 350 degrees & grease a 9"X13" baking dish.

Into a blender (or food processor), mix the soup, eggs, mayo, and onion until smooth. Add the cheese, blend until smooth. Note: if you add the cheese too soon, it will goop up everything!

Put cooked broccoli into the baking dish, then pour the liquids over it. Fold until mixed. Top with the crumbs, and dot with butter.

Bake for 30 minutes.

Irish Soda Bread
This is traditional one, but not molded traditionally

Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and grease 2 loaf pans.

1 1/2 C. Buttermilk, COLD
3 T. melted Butter
2 beaten Eggs
3 1/4 C. Flour (NOT self rising!)
2/3 C. Sugar
1 t. Baking Soda
1 T. Baking Powder
1 t. Salt
1 1/2 C. Raisens or Currants (as to preference)

In large bowl, sift the dry ingredients together. In another bowl (or blender), mix the rest of the ingredients, then add to the dry ingredients. Fold until mixed, and pour into greased pans.

Bake for 45 minutes, then mark top with an X. Cook for 15 minutes longer, buttering the top when down. Let it set for 10-15 minutes prior to eating.

There may be better receipts for this, however, I was given this by a great-grandmother from the auld sod!
