I had the best weekend!! On Saturday morning 5 of my girlfriends and I left for Detroit for a friends bachelorette party. We went to an 80's nightclub and it was so much fun! The bar came complete with a giant dancefloor, disco ball, and plenty of Blondie. It was a mix of all ages including an 80 year old man who could dip better than any woman I've ever seen. So now on to my slightly boring menu this week. I had to send the hubby to go grocery shopping on Sunday and didn't want to make him try to find anything too complicated at the store :)

So looking forward to your mac and cheese recipe tomorrow! Woot! I dont think you REALLY want the Lantham stew recipe. Its super weird, but my husband likes it for some reason. Its a recipe from the depression era. Oh, but if you must!
ReplyDelete5 medium potatoes; peeled and diced into chunks (more or less potatoes; just fill bottom of casserole pan)
1 small onion; diced
1 cup dry rice
1 cup dry elbow macaroni
1 can pinto beans with juice
1 pd. Ground beef (thawed and browned)
1 can diced tomatoes
layer into casserole dish (sprayed with pam); potatoes, onion, rice, macaroni, beans, beef, then tomatoes. Sprinkle salt and some All purpose seasoning on top and cover tightly. Bake at 350 for 90 minutes. Sprinkle with more salt and seasoning to taste, before serving.
Again, my husband likes it because its bland, but thats why I dont really like it! I make it a lot though for him, and the kids dont really mind it!
Yum. The gyro recipe looks delicious. I am planning on making greek feta burgers today and so I will be making a cucumber yogurt sauce to go on them this week.
