3-4 pds stew meat
3-5 Beef Bouillion Cubes
4-5 large potatoes peeled and cubed
2 cans carrots (or half a bag baby carrots)
1 small onion diced (I use onion powder cause Bryan wont eat it if he "sees" onions)
Water
salt and pepper
worchestire sauce
Put stew meat in crock pot early that morning. Fill pot with water and allow to cook on high all day. In the afternoon, add in the salt and pepper, and the worchestire sauce and the bouillon cubes.
About 2 hours before serving add in the vegetables, and if you want a little thicker soup, mix up some corn starch and water to thicken.
That's all there is to it, and its a nice warm hearty meal that's easy!!

Simple Meat Loaf
2 pds ground beef
1 can tomato paste
1 onion chopped
1-1 1/2 cups oatmeal
2 eggs
salt and pepper
My husband is a picky eater, and he loves this!
Mix the ground beef, egg, onion, oatmeal, tomato paste, salt and pepper together in a big bowl. If you do not have enough Oatmeal in it to dry it up , add a little more, as thats the key to a perfect meatloaf, have enough bread in it to draw up the oil out of it, and allow it to stick together.
Once the meatloaf is nearly done, pull out and put your ketchup on top and put back in for another 20-30 minutes. I bake this in a 300 degree oven for a couple hours, or until the meat is cooked. I decided its better to be cooking for a couple hours, and have a delicious meal, than to cook for 20 minutes, and throw it out, so I cook things slow to get a better flavor.

Beef Manhatten's
You will need one good size roast. Doesnt matter what cut it is, I use any I got in the freezer, cause if you cook it right, its going to be nice and tender anyway.
Place the roast in a crock pot, along with some Worchestershire sauce, soy sauce, salt and pepper. Cover with water, and for an even better tasting gravy, go ahead and throw in a couple beef boillion cubes to get that really beefy taste.
Just cover it and let it cook. No big secret here, just patience with it. Let it cook until it falls completly apart when you touch it with a fork. Take the meat out of the juice, and shred the meat up with a fork. and set aside.
Now pour the juice into a pot and bring it to a boil. Once its boiling good, mix you up some cornstarch and water, about 3 tablespoons corn starch to 1/4 cup water, and pour it over into the juice, along with a dash of Kitchen Bouquet. This flavors your juice, and makes your gravy nice and brown. Salt and pepper to taste.
Now, take two pieces of white bread and lay on a plate. Spoon some of the roast on the bread, then a little gravy, and then put the other piece of bread on top and smother with the gravy.
I serve this with Mashed Potatoes and green beans usually. One of my and my families favorite meals!!

Slow Cooked Pinto Beans
I have been informed that not everyone cooks their own beans. I have always made my own pot of pinto beans with my fresh made corn bread and fried potatoes, so I couldnt believe this but I guess its true. So here is how to do it.
Wash you a pd bag of beans. Make sure you get all the rocks out (yes fresh beans that dont come canned do have rocks in them from time to time.)
Put your beans over in a good crock pot... you need one that gets hot enough to boil these, you dont want the soup to taste yucky.
Put about 2 tablespoons shortening in the beans along with water to fill it up to the top. Salt and pepper, and be giving with the seasoning, if you dont the beans are not going to taste good.
Cover and let cook for a few hours, make sure you keep them filled with water, or they will burn.
Once they start boiling good, and you see the soup has turned brown, and the beans have swelled all the way up, uncover them, and let them cook like that. That makes your soup get nice and thick, and gives the beans a much better flavor. Be attentive to them, keep them stired up good, so they get thick.
Serve with corn bread ( I have a recipe for this on here) and fried potatoes and maybe even some kraut and weiners. Yummy good, straight from the south supper. Hope you enjoy these!!

Stampers Hashbrown skillet meal
Okay, so one day I was short on pantry supplies, and short on money, so I decided to become creative with what I had, and this ended up being a really good meal.
2-3 med size potatoes
1 pds ground beef
1 pck onion soup mix
powdered cheese from a mac and cheese dinner
1 can mushrooms
4 slices cheese
okay so first brown your hamburger meat, then mix in the onion soup mix with just a little water, then shred the potatoes up, and put them in the skillet with the meat, and mix all that together. and let the potatoes brown good. Once the potatoes are done and brown, mix that cheese up with a little milk and pour over the top of the casserole and then place the 4 slices of cheese on and let all that melt in. A good hearty meal, (maybe not healthy, but is tasty) and feed alot for just a little.

Swedish Meatballs
Okay, so my wonderful Mommy in Law Debbie gave me this recipe today, and I have not ever made these, but they turned out wonderful, were super easy.. and my owe my the taste. Mmm mmmm
Ingredients
For Meatballs
2+pds ground beef
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion powder
salt and pepper (put however much you like in your food)
1 sleeve of saltine crackers, Crumbled
Sauce
5-6 beef bouillon cubes
3-4 cups water
salt and pepper to taste
corn starch mixed with water to thicken(use a couple heaping teaspoons full with about 1/4 cup water to begin with, and mix together, then if you need more to get the gravy thicker, repeat and make more)
Okay, so you put all the ingredients for the meatballs in a big bowl, and mix it all together like you would a meatloaf. Then roll into small balls, about the size of a golf ball, and put in a skillet with just a little pam or oil to cook them in. Keep the heat low, as you are just browning the outside.
While these are browning, go ahead and get the sauce going
Put the water in a pan and bring to boil. add in your boillion cubes, and the seasoning. once all the cubes have dissolved, put your cornstarch water in, and make sure you are stirring the sauce, it will thicken.
Now, pour the gravy over top of your meatballs, and turn down to low and cover. Allow these to simmer for 20-30 minutes until the meatballs ar cooked all the way.
Next you need to put on water for your egg noodles. Boil the egg noodles just to where they get a little soft, but not done. Drain them and then transfer them over to the meatball and gravy mixture. Allow to cook until the meatballs and noodles are done. Thats all there is to it, and its a wonderful meal, and its Cheap!! I served this with green beans canned fresh from the garden, and mashed pototoes. Hope you enjoy this recipe and the pic.
