Steamed on the grill

This is quick way to make some veggies when the grill is going!

Chopped veggies: onions, asparagus, peppers, mushrooms, carrots, potatoes, just about anything.
Salt, pepper
Worchestershire sauce
1/2 stick of butter.

Use 2 sheets of aluminum foil, about 20 inches long, crossed like an X.
Place veggies and sliced butter in center. Sprinkle with worchestershire sauce, salt, and pepper (liberally).

Seal packet. Pull up sides and roll ends of inside sheet together to close. Do same with outside sheet. Make sure the sides are sealed as well.

Place on grill. Take about 20-30 minutes, so put it on early.

Thought I forgot you, didn't you?

I'm back. I haven't had many good recipes for a while, because my little guy decided to eat fewer foods. But here we go!

Crockpot Beef Stroganoff!

You need:

A good-sized grilling steak, like a london broil, cut into strips.
1/2 cup flour.
2 teaspoons salt or seasoned salt
Pinch of pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 can condensed beef or chicken broth
2 tablespoons white wine (use the good stuff!)
1 vidalia onion, sliced into rings (then cut the rings in half, so you have strips)
3 cans of canned mushrooms, or a package of fresh mushrooms, sliced.
1/2 container sour cream (low fat works fine).
noodles.

Mix the flour, salt, pepper, and dry mustard in a bowl. Toss the beef strips in the flour mixture until they are covered. put the strips into the crockpot. Dump the onions and mushrooms into the crockpot and toss lightly. Pour the can of soup and the wine into the crockpot. Set on low for 8-10 hours, or high for 5 hours.

Before serving, cook noodles. Just before serving, mix in the sour cream. Serve over the cooked noodles. Voila! Beef stroganoff. Very yummy!
