Glazed Meatloaf and Mashed Potatoes I have shared this glazed meatloaf recipe on facebook before, but I haven’t posted it on my blog. My daughter asked me to make it, so I figured I’d post it here as well. It is a fairly basic and easy meatloaf recipe, but the glaze makes it extra good.ContinueContinue reading “Glazed Meatloaf + Mashed Potatoes”

Flavorful Beef Rouladen
Beef Rouladen, spatzle and red cabbage My family loves German food. We always get super excited when traveling if we find a German restaurant. I want to expand my knowledge of German cooking, but is hard not to make our favorites. My kids most frequently ask for sauerbraten, but these beef rouladen are a closeContinueContinue reading “Flavorful Beef Rouladen”
Beef Ragu and Bechamel Lasagna
Beef Ragu and Bechamel Lasagna This recipe is not your traditional ricotta based lasagna and it doesn’t even really resemble that dish. I am telling you though, it is the BEST lasagna I have ever had. I don’t even remember where this recipe came from, but after the first time I made it that wasContinueContinue reading “Beef Ragu and Bechamel Lasagna”
Cheeseburger Quesadillas
Cheeseburger Quesadillas with fries and broccoli Cheeseburger quesadillas are a great quick weeknight meal when you don’t want to spend more than 20 minutes or so on dinner. I love to make a big complicated recipe a lot of the time, because I truly enjoy cooking. But there are still some days where I justContinueContinue reading “Cheeseburger Quesadillas”
Beef and Onion Stir Fry
My kids had afternoon appointments today, so I knew I needed something super quick to make for dinner after. This beef and onion stir fry is another recipe from Woks of Life, which I have mentioned before. I have loved everything I have made from their site so far. This is a super simple dish.ContinueContinue reading “Beef and Onion Stir Fry”
Balsamic Braised Short Ribs + Mashed Potatoes
Balsamic Short Ribs These fantastic balsamic braised short ribs are another one of my family’s favorite meals. The subtle sweetness of the balsamic vinegar creates a uniquely delicious gravy when slow cooked along with the short ribs, red wine and beef broth. I pretty much always serve these over some creamy mashed potatoes because theContinueContinue reading “Balsamic Braised Short Ribs + Mashed Potatoes”
Meatball Subs
One of my sons is a huge fan of meatball subs, so they are a frequent request in our household. I like them because they are pretty quick and easy to make. We eat them on my homemade sandwich rolls (recipe here). I always keep some in my freezer, but you can just as easilyContinueContinue reading “Meatball Subs”

Barbacoa Burritos + Taqueria Style Jalapenos and Carrots
Barbacoa burritos We were fortunate enough to live out in California for 15 years in an area with amazing taquerias. When we first moved to North Carolina it was hard to find that style of Mexican food, but I am happy to say that there are totally amazing taqueria style Mexican food trucks all overContinueContinue reading “Barbacoa Burritos + Taqueria Style Jalapenos and Carrots”
Open Faced Steak Sandwiches with Parmesan Dressing
Open Faced Steak Sandwich My family loves steak. And sandwiches. And sourdough (my sourdough recipe and tips here). So these open faced steak sandwiches make everyone happy. Tender steak is layered on top of griddled sourdough and topped with parmesan mustard dressing, arugula, red onion, and some shaved parmesan. So yummy! I haven’t talked aContinueContinue reading “Open Faced Steak Sandwiches with Parmesan Dressing”
