When I say “sauced”, I mean covered in sauce, not drunk. Although I suppose you could add tequila to this recipe pretty easily! <wink, wink> I stumbled upon this recipe after making way too much stuffing for my Southwest Stuffed Peppers, thus creating my Southwest Meal Starter. Cool huh! Frankly, you can throw just…

Southwest Meatloaf
This is a smaller version of the recipe that I use for my Southwest Meal Starter. The only difference is that you aren’t stuffing anything…anything but yourself that is! 1 1/2 pounds of ground beef (or turkey, or a mixture of beef and turkey…you make the call. You could even add chorizo and kick it…
Southwest Stuffed Peppers
This is one of my recipes that uses my Southwest Meal Starter concoction. It’s meat, rice, corn, beans, and spices. Delicious! 1/2 to 1 pound of Southwest Meal Starter 4 bell peppers (any color, I like yellow, orange and red as they have the best flavor) – cut in half and remove the seed pod…
Southwest Meal Starter
Yeah, funky name I know. So, what exactly IS meal starter? It’s the perfect base for stuffed peppers, southwest meatloaf and the most awesome sauced burritos you’ll ever make. 2 pounds of ground beef (or turkey, or a mixture of beef and turkey…you make the call. You could even add chorizo and kick it…

Hot Dog Bites
My kids could never wrap their heads around something called “pigs in a blanket” so I call these hot dog bites. Both recipes can be made with either regular hot dogs (whatever your dog of choice is) or Lil Smokies. Make these for a picnic, weeknight soccer practice or a Sunday ballgame and watch how…
Hamburger Gravy
This is a staple in our family. A very simple, yet satisfying comfort food. Serve over mashed potatoes with green beans and home made bread. 1 pound ground beef 1 10 ounce can cream mushroom soup 1/4 cup milk garlic salt and pepper to taste Brown the ground beef, add garlic salt and pepper…
Hamburger Pie
A friend of mine taught me how to make this a long time ago, when we were both poor and desperate for different meals to make for our families. This quickly became a family favorite and is consistently on the monthly menu calendar at least once. In order to feed my brood of teenagers, I…
