Okay. This is it for the recipes this week. I really want to help out my dear friend Amy (and her poor husband who is tired of eating spaghetti and hamburger helper…you can thank me later, Chanch), and so I will post what I’m making tonight.
First: Italian Beef
Take any type of roast (rump, arm, chuck…the better the meat, the better the taste), and sprinkle both sides with Lipton onion soup mix. Put it in a roaster and add enough water so that half the roast is submerged. Then sprinkle lightly with oregano and moderately with basil and garlic salt. Cook at 350 for 3 hours, turning roast over half way through.
Remove and let cool slightly. Refrigerate overnight. The next day, slice thinly and place in a pan on the stove. Cover with juices and simmer until warm. Serve on buns.
***Note: I did not want to run my oven for 3 hours yesterday afternoon, so I started baking this thing at 7:30 this morning. It was done before the heat of the day and it was in the refrigerator “chillin” by lunch time. My house smells great and I can’t wait for dinner tonight!***
Next: Strawberry Applesauce
1 envelope knox gelatin
1/2 cup cold water
1 box strawberry jello
1 cup boiling water
1 (10 oz) pkg frozen strawberries, thawed
8-10 oz applesauce
Dissolve gelatin in cold water. Set aside. Dissolve strawberry jello in boiling water. Let cool. Then combine all ingredients and refrigerate several hours.

Take the Italian beef sandwiches, the strawberry jello, and add a bag of Doritos and that makes dinner for the York family! :)

Sounds GREAT!! Got room for 2 more? :)
So nice to see that many of your recipes are mine! :) (And among my favorites)
Thanks for the receipes and Amy is not the only one that is scared of the kitchen. What’s
wrong with hamburger helper?-Ha
I don’t have much of a defense (since we do have spaghetti at least once a week), but the Hamburger Helper issue was Michele’s, not mine! I fixed it one time two weeks ago, and that was the first time since before I had children 5 years ago and became a stay-at-home mom. Michele just hasn’t learned that spaghetti is just as easy to fix, but seems a little healthier. But, yes, I (and my sweet family) are thrilled to have some new easy recipes to try. I’ll let you know the reaction!
