The Hungry Wife

Stuffed Bell Peppers are a classic American dish, that is an all-in-one meal.  You get your meat and veggies in one delicious dish, although, I do like to serve them with a side of french fries.  This filling in the peppers is very similar to a meatloaf recipe.

Every household should have delicious, foolproof recipes for affordable cuts of meat.  The Hungry Wife Flank Steak recipe is just that.  Flank Steak is a relatively long, flat cut of meat and used in a variety of dishes, such as, London Broil and fajitas.  Because it is a tougher cut of meat, you want to make sure you take the time to marinade and cook it just right.  Paying attention to not over-cooking is very important so that you have a tender steak and not a tough, chewy steak.

Pot Roast is a perfect comforting meal.  Meat that has been slow cooked so it is incredibly tender, and simmered with delicious spices, cooked along with simple potatoes, carrots and onions.  Every household needs a good pot roast recipe, and Slow Cooker Pot Roast is not only the best I have come across and made myself, but it is also the easiest.

Swiss Steak is another great recipe for those days when you don’t really feel like cooking.  There is minimal preparation and does not need to be tended to when simmering over low heat.  The best thing about Swiss Steak Recipe is how great it tastes.  When choosing the diced tomatoes for this dish, I like to get zesty seasoned diced tomatoes.  Seasoned diced tomatoes add nice flavor to the steak and really makes it something special.

Best Meat Loaf is a recipe that has been handed down from my Great, Great Aunt.  You might think Meat Loaf is a pretty standard recipe, but there are many variations out there.  Some Meat Loaf recipes can actually get a little complicated and calling for a bunch of ingredients.  Best Meat Loaf Recipe keeps it simple, but has a ton of flavor.

With March just around the corner, I start to get the craving for Corned Beef and Cabbage in preparation to celebrate my Irish heritage.  Even though I love this dish, I seem to forget about it until St. Patrick’s day rolls around.  Corned Beef and Cabbage deserves more respect then it typically gets.  The meat is super flavorful, with a subtle and unique taste.  Leftovers are perfect to use in homemade Corned Beef Hash and sliced on sandwiches.

Nothing says comfort to me more, especially in winter, then homemade Beef Stew.  The wonderful aroma fills the house as the hearty ingredients simmer.  It is a meal in itself, serve it with some crusty bread to mop up the left over juices in the bowl, and the family will be full and happy.  There are many, many recipes for Beef Stew out there, and I swear I’ve tried most of them.  Brooke’s Beef Stew arose out of 3 stew recipes, and contains the best of each one.  I hope you enjoy my personal version of Beef stew.

Herbed Adobo Pork Chops recipe is a wonderful alternative to breading and frying the chops, making them healthier and more flavorful.  Served with some fresh veggies, you can feel great about making this meal for your family.  It is quick and easy to prepare, making it the perfect weeknight meal.  The Herbed Adobo marinade would also be excellent on chicken breasts, if your not much of a pork eater.
