I’ve been trying out different recipes that are in my Grandma’s recipe boxes. One week, I had made left over meat from a roast, so I decided to use that meat instead of beef sirloin (or round steak) in this Beef Stroganoff recipe.

Now to be fair, it looks like it is really my Aunt Connie’s recipe as my grandma wrote “Connie” in the top corner. I’ll have to ask her if she is the one who gave my grandma this recipe.

It had a different flavor than I am used to in stroganoff, but my husband and I liked it. Our kids were not too enthusiastic about it. They like the white creamy sauce better.

Since my meat was already cooked, I just cut it in cubes. I cooked the onion and garlic and then added the meat. I then finished the recipe like it says except for adding mushrooms. I hate mushrooms. I then served it over rice instead of noodles which is what the recipe says I should have used.

I shared with you on a previous post that when my grandma passed away, I took her recipes home with me so that I could start making them and also saving them for my sisters and our children. At the same time, I also brought home an old composition book that included my great-grandma’s recipes. She was my grandma’s mom. I never knew her, but I am so glad I have this part of her life with me. We all know the kitchen is the heart of the home, and I am thankful that I have their favorite recipes.

I heard that my great-grandma was one classy lady. I can tell that she was just by her handwriting. Isn’t it beautiful?

This Oatmeal Muffin recipe is very easy to prepare. My children loved them while they were still warm.

The batter was runny, but the muffins turned out fine. I love how the older generation knew how to bake and assumed everyone else could too. They didn’t have to add 10 directions. She included the ingredients, how long to bake them, and the recipe was done!

Did you know that March is National Nutrition Month? 

I didn’t know that either! I received an email from Pasta Fits asking if I could share one of their healthier recipes, and since I love pasta and I love shrimp, why not?

They shared 3 recipes with me that were all under 300 calories per serving. That’s amazing! You can go see their recipes for Spicy Ditalini and Chickpea Stew and Green Pasta Puttanesca on their website, but I have included the recipe for Shrimp Linguine with Tomatoes & Artichokes below.

The shrimp adds protein to the meal and the tomatoes and artichoke complement the pasta by adding flavor and color for a beautiful presentation.

Isn’t it great that we can eat healthy meals and enjoy our food? Let me know if you make this recipe. I have not tried it yet, but it looked so good I had to share it!

I received a new Buttermilk Protein Pancake Mix from Krusteaz as well as additional compensation so that I could make up a meal including pancakes and share with you how I liked this new pancake mix.

First of all, breakfast dinners are our favorite dinners! We love all things breakfast. So I was excited to get this pancake mix. On the day that I used this mix, I had a busy and discouraging day. A month ago, I was rear-ended. I had been getting some chiropractic care for a torn tendon in my shoulder and some herniated and bulging discs in my neck. My chiropractor sent me to get a MRI and then sent me to an orthopedic surgeon for advice on my shoulder. He told me that I would need surgery, which was very discouraging as I have five kids, do all the cooking and most of the driving shuttling the kids to where they have to go.

I came home and had to make dinner. I was so happy that I could whip up this mix along with baking some bacon that I had already defrosted. (I line cookie sheets that have a lip with aluminum foil, lay the bacon flat on the aluminum foil, and bake the bacon at 350 degrees. I have 3 pound bags of bacon, so I bake up all 3 pounds at one time, and then freeze the leftover bacon that is cooked for future meals. I love making bacon this way! The pans are easy to clean and bacon grease isn’t splattering all over my kitchen!)

I also fried some eggs completely cooking the yokes — I flip the eggs and squeeze them with the spatula to get the yoke to break and cook. I then took two pancakes, placed the eggs and bacon between them, and made Pancake Sandwiches. I put syrup on top of my pancake sandwich and cut my sandwich into bites and ate it with my fork. Some of my family did not use syrup and picked up their sandwich and ate it with their hands. They were a big hit!

If you were trying to watch your diet a little more than what we did, you could eat the pancakes with fruit! This mix already contains 15 grams of protein per serving. It is also made with 100% grain flour and has no artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives, so you can feel good about using this mix to feed your family.

My kids loved the taste of the pancakes. They thought they tasted better than my normal mix. The mix made pancakes that had a nice texture — the perfect density; and of course, they were very simple to make. I only needed to have one egg, a little bit of oil, water, and the mix.

What is really awesome is that Krusteaz is allowing one of you to win  a couple of these boxes of Protein Pancake mix! You can enter the giveaway below for a chance to win!

When my Grandma passed away last year over a year ago, I brought back her recipe boxes to look through. My idea was to make up a recipe book for my family of some of her favorite recipes. It’s a year later, and I’ve just started to look through them!

One of her recipes that I tried this week is called Oven-Fried Chicken.

Look at how she typed up her recipe! She was the township clerk for years as well as being a farmer’s wife and was very organized!

It was very easy to make this recipe. There were five dry ingredients to mix together. Then I had to just roll the chicken legs in the evaporated milk and then in in the dry ingredient mixture. After I had done this step and placed the chicken in a 13″ x 9″ pan that I had already sprayed with cooking spray, I poured melted butter all over the chicken. It baked for at least one hour, and then we were ready to eat!

The dry ingredient mixture that you use to roll the chicken in includes cropped pecans. I did use the nuts as I wanted to try the recipe exactly the way it was written, and I liked it! However, if you don’t like or have allergies to nuts, it would be fine to leave the nuts out.
