This is another very simple recipe that tastes amazing! It is so good. I cannot stress that enough. This is one of Husband's favorite recipes. There is just so much flavor when you combine the steak and the onions and the dressing. I wish we hadn't already eaten all of it, because I could really go for some right now.

Here is what you need:

1 lb. Boneless Beef Sirloin Steak
1/2 t Black Pepper
1 Large Red Onion, Cut into Strips
2 t Minced Garlic
1/2 C Sun-Dried Tomato Dressing
Parmesan Cheese (The canned stuff)
1 1/2 C Rice, cooked according to package directions

1. Cut the steak into strips. Pour a little oil in a skillet and cook steak over medium heat. Sprinkle the steak with the pepper. Cook until the steak is cooked through, remove it from the pan and cover with foil. Leave the drippings.

2. Add onions and garlic to the skillet. Stir in the dressing. Cover and cook about 5 minutes. Uncover, stir and cook another 5 minutes until the onions are tender.

3. Add the steak back into the pan and mix it into the onions and sauce.

4. Serve over rice. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top, and enjoy!

I have developed a great love of lasagna. It is so delicious and so versatile. For regular quick weeknight meals I make a very simple lasagna for my family, but when we have company I like to fancy it up a bit. I got this delicious recipe from Husband's brother and his wife, the same ones who gave us the secrets of cake mix peach cobbler.  Although I call this my fancy lasagna, it is still pretty easy to throw together.

Here is what you need:
9 lasagna noodles
1 lb. Ground Beef
1 Small Onion, chopped
2 Cloves Minced Garlic
1 Jar Spaghetti Sauce- You can use homemade if you are feeling extra fancy.
4 oz. Fresh Mushrooms, sliced
2 Eggs
1 lb. Cottage Cheese
3/4 C Parmesan Cheese
2 T Dried Parsley
1/2 t Salt
1/2 t Black Pepper
16 oz. Mozzarella Cheese

1. Cook Noodles according to package directions.

2. Brown meat with onions and garlic until the meat is fully cooked. Drain off fat.

3. Add sauce and mushrooms. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir occassionally.

 

4. In a separate bowl, beat eggs. Add cottage cheese, 1/2 cup of Parmesan, parsley, salt and pepper. Mix to combine.

 

5. Layer the ingredients in a 9x13 inch pan. Spread a little sauce on the bottom of the pan to prevent noodles from sticking. Then layer noodles, cheese mixture, meat/sauce mixture, mozzarella cheese and repeat.

 

6. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes or until browned and bubbly.

Serve with some garlic bread and something green and healthy. Enjoy!

Joudsas were my very favorite food growing up. On our birthday's my mom always let us pick what we wanted for dinner, and this is what I chose almost every single year. My mom started making these for my dad shortly after they were married. My dad served an LDS mission in Taiwan, and this is one of the things he liked to eat. Now, these are not super authentic Taiwanese food. they are very Americanized, but that doesn't mean they aren't delicious. They are very similar to pot stickers, but a whole lot less work.

Ingredients:
1 lb. Ground Beef
1 Green Bell Pepper
1 Small Onion
1  Pkg. Won Ton Wrapper- They are found in the produce section of most grocery stores.

1. Dice the onion and green pepper. Mix it in with the meat. It works best to get your hands in there and really mix it up.

2. Place a small amount of the meat mixture in the center of the won ton wrapper. Dip your finger tips in a small amount of water and rub it on 2 adjacent sides of the wrapper ( this will help it stick as you fold it over and seal it shut.) Fold the wrapper closed and press the edges together. It's okay it they don't stay totally sealed or if they tear a little bit.

3. Place Joudsas in a steamer, and steam for about 14 minutes.

 Serve with rice and topped with soy sauce. This makes about 40-50 joudsas.
