Sticky Chicken

This is one of those meals that are always a hit, but I don’t make it all the time because it contains sugar. But if you are looking for a family pleaser that everyone will enjoy, give this one a try.

I bet this would also be great turned into a stir fry using this […]

French Onion Soup Mix

Classic Salisbury Steak

When I think of salisbury steak, this recipe has everything I am looking for. It’s a filling meal especially when made with mashed potatoes. It’s relatively cheap, being made with ground beef.

Venison Sloppy Joes (crockpot & skillet)

1/4c bacon fat […]
