LooLoo’s Meatloaf
March 1, 2010 | No Comments »
One of the main reasons I make a meatloaf is so I can have meatloaf sandwiches for left overs. There is nothing better than meatloaf on toasted wheat bread with just a little mayo!! This recipe is a concoction of a few different recipes that I combined from a very old cook book that came with my husband, (he bought it in 1978). Read the rest of this entry »

My sister brought me some orange infused olive oil that I had been savoring over, while thinking about how we would enjoy it best. My idea came from the “Fig and Balsamic Vinegar Salad“, that I posted back in 2008. The difference in this recipe is that Read the rest of this entry »

A co-worker of mine, “Sweet” Georgia Brown shared with me her recipe for beef stew that was fabulous!

I really liked this beef and spinach casserole because it is can be made any time of the year, delicious either hot or cold. The meat sauce is simmered in red wine which adds so much Read the rest of this entry »
Enchiladas Santa Maria
June 10, 2009 | 1 Comment »
These south western style enchiladas are a spin off from my chicken enchiladas. We were in the mood for enchiladas, but not chicken, so I decided to slow roast (2 hours) a tri-tip that was marinated in a rub of spices. My tri-tip, that was already marinated came from my local butcher that uses Pappy’s seasoning’s. They call it the Santa Maria tri-tip, so that’s where the south western style was born. My chicken enchiladas are sauceless, these are not. Read the rest of this entry »
Joy’s Eggplant with Pasta and Marinara Sauce
May 27, 2009 | No Comments »
This recipe is compliments of my friend Joy. She and I enjoy sharing our cooking efforts and finds. I made it the night before so the flavors could bond, (casserole recipes always seem to be better the next day), and I have to say Joy’s eggplant with pasta and marinara sauce was really good! Eggplant’s are not only very tasty, they also have many health benefits. Just so you know, the eggplant is high in fiber, contain vitamins, proteins, minerals, and very important photonutrients, that are known to act as antioxidant’s. If your interested in learning more about the benefit’s of eggplant’s, Click here. The jar of marinara sauce that I used was really good, however next time I make this, I will probably make my own (with cremini mushrooms). Mostaccioli pasta was my choice for this casserole recipe and it was perfect. Mostaccioli, similar to penne pasta, is used often in casserole dishes. Please enjoy! Read the rest of this entry »
