Untidy Sameuls





Probably more widely known as Sloppy Joes, these can be made with ground beef or ground turkey. This homemade version is light years ahead of anything you can buy in an envelope or can, and really just as easy. I like to serve these with paper-thin slices of red onion.





Ingredients


1 teaspoon vegetable oil


1 lb. ground beef or ground turkey


1 medium yellow onion, peeled and chopped fine


1/2 cup best-quality ketchup


1/2 cup best-quality chili sauce


2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce


1 teaspoon coarse salt


freshly cracked black pepper


1/3 cup water


6 sesame seed topped hamburger buns, warmed





Method


Brush a skillet with oil and warm over moderate heat, 30 seconds. Add beef [or turkey] and onion and sauté 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add all remaining ingredients [except buns] and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. Spoon mixture between split buns and serve immediately.
Try this stuffed French toast for breakfast some time:


Slice a loaf of French bread into 3 inch slices. Cut a ';pocket'; in each slice, about 3/4 of the way to the other side. Stuff with your favorite meat (chopped ham, bacon slices, sausage crumbles or patties) and some cheese (swiss, shredded cheddar, or muenster).


Beat an egg or two in a shallow dish, and dip each sandwich in it, on both sides, then fry them in a hot skillet just like french toast.


You can have them for lunch, too, just stuff them with whatever they like. We've even made them sweet, with blueberry pie filling and a cube of cream cheese. Encourage them to be creative!
something easy is cookies just buy some box of cookies that you can make you self all it needs is eggs and a couple other stuff it tells you on the box..or you can make rice crispy treats..if you have rice crispy it tells you a recipe on the back to make them..or you can try a drink let them make smoothies or something like that good luck!!

And it's sooo good! You'll be hooked :)
experiment. whats the fun of a recipe? i never use those. lol im 13 and love to cook as well.
Here are a few E-Z recipes you might want to try. Good Luck %26amp; enjoy.





COLA CHICKEN


(My preference…wings or ribs)


4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts


1 cup catsup


1 12oz. can cola (pepsi, coke, etc.)


Put chicken in a non-stick pan.


Mix together catsup and cola, pour over chicken.


Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and cook 45 minutes.


(turning chicken a few times, while cooking...to prevent from sticking to pan)


Uncover, turn up the heat and continue to cook until the sauce


becomes thick and adheres to the chicken.


It turns into the most incredible BBQ sauce. Yummmm!


You can double the recipe and use more pieces of


chicken....wings...would be ideal...add some hot sauce....presto ';Hot Wings';!


I have used Ribs, just as good.


I fixed chicken wings, (using the above recipe)


but...I added the spices from a MILD (I don't care for ';HOT';) Buffalo Wings packet...(the kind you get to bake in the oven).....I thought it was really good.....(but you/I can't find a 'bad' way to fix chicken).





CRUNCHY ONION CHICKEN


1 1/3 cups French’s Original French Fried Onions


4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves


1 egg, beaten


LIGHTLY CRUSH: Onions in a plastic bag.


DIP: Chicken in egg (put egg in plastic bag)


COVER: With onion crumbs, press firmly to adhere to chicken.


BAKE: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place chicken on lightly greased baking pan. Sprinkle with additional onion crumbs, if desired. Bake for 20 minutes or until no longer pink in center.








';Corny Beanie Weenies.';


1 can baked beans (14-16 ounces with brown sugar, onion, and bacon).


1 package Weiners (all sliced up).


1 can of whole kernel corn (drained)


Heat and serve.


Hint :


1.)Might put ingredients in a casserole dish and top with corn muffin mix.


2.)Substitute a pound of cooked ground beef….gr.turkey…smkd. sausage…rename





POT ROAST


Your choice of beef (to fit crock-pot)


1 pkg. dry Ranch dressing mix


1 pkg. dry Italian dressing mix


1 pkg. dry Brown Gravy mix


1 cup water


Put beef in pot.


Mix together all the dry mixes….then add water …pour over meat and cover %26amp; cook on high 4-6 hours. Until meat is tender. The first time I mad it I didn’t have the Italian Dressing mix….so I added a pkg. of Onion Soup Mix….I have to say I liked that better. If you use more water you might want to add more Brown Gravy mix….to make a thicker sauce. Was gonna add potatoes and carrots…but never got around to it.








E-Z Potato Soup


(2 – 4 servings)


1 (14 ½ oz.) can of diced potatoes


1 can of cream of celery soup


¼ cup ‘real’ bacon bits (more if you like)


milk (use soup can to measure milk)


¼ - ½ stick of margarine (optional)


Pour potatoes – liquid an all into medium sauce pan.


Pour celery soup into a bowl and add a soup can full of milk and mix together, pour over potatoes and stir.


Stir in bacon bits cook over medium heat until hot, turn off stove add margarine and stir until melted, serve,


We were given a quart of Half %26amp; Half and I used some of this in my soup. You could use evaporated milk, too. Or some Fat Free milk. Your preference.


I did not add any margarine. (Second time I made it…I added ½ stick of margine)


I suppose if you want to add a little “BAM” to it, add some hot sauce. Maybe sprinkle some grated cheese to serve.





Kreamy Kool-Aid Pie


1-(6 g) package un sweetened Kool-Aid powdered drink mix


1-(14 oz.)can sweetened condensed milk


1-(8 oz)container Cool Whip frozen whipped topping, thawed.

1. In a medium bowl mix Kool-Aid and condensed milk, thoroughly.


2. Fold in Cool Whip.


4. If desired, spread more Cool Whip on top.


5. Chill for a minimum of 4 hours.


I’ve used: Strawberry…Cherry…Lemon-lime (Key-Lime Pie)….Lemonade (Lemon Pie…might add some yellow food coloring for a more lemony look.)





E-Z Cake Recipes


NO EGGS,NO OIL ,NO WATER .......JUST SODA AND MIX.


CHOCOLATE CAKE MIX.......CHERRY SODA (BLACK FOREST)


ORANGE CAKE MIX….ORANGE SODA


PINEAPPLE MIX….PINEAPPLE SODA


SPICE MIX…..ROOT BEER SODA


POUR CAKE MIX IN BOWL


ADD SODA USE LOAF CAKE PAN

Use instant Banana pudding or vanilla pudding fix by directions on box.


Cool Whip...add to pudding mix thoroughly.


Vanilla wafers


Toasted coconut.


Line serving dish with a layer of vanilla wafers (a row up the sides of dish, also.) Add a layer of sliced of bananas


Gently cover with a layer of 1/2 pudding mixture. Make a second layer of wafers, bananas %26amp; pudding.
