[QUOTE="mom_to_3, post: 552159, member: 30"] I haven't posted in quite a while, but wanted to add a couple of recipes myself. Ham, Red Potatoes and Fresh Green Beans I like to use one or two ham hocks for flavoring and then some cut up ham chunks. Whatever amount works for your family. Then clean and halve red potatoes. Add in quite a few fresh green beans that have been washed and snapped. Cover with water. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and fresh diced onion. It's best to bring this to a boil and then lower the heat for a couple of hours until the potaoes are done. Serve with fresh bread. This will work well whether you cook it on the stove on or in a crockpot. Your men will LOVE this! The next recipe is extremely simple yet inexpensive and satisfying. Potatoes and meatballs. Take a pound of hamburger and season it well, diced onion, salt, pepper, garlic powder. Mix all that up and shape into meatballs about the size of a golf ball. Peel however many regular potatoes you think your family needs and add them to a pan, add in the meatballs and cover with water. You will need to salt and pepper this water also, as it will become your broth. The combination of the juices from the hamburger cooked into the potatoes makes it very good! Serve a vegetable with this along with some bread and butter and your family will love you! Both of these dishes smell delish while cooking too! Something else I have done is to make a mock enchilada cassarole brown a pound of seasoned (salt, pepper, garlic, onion, cumin) hamburger and drain. Take a package of corn tortilla's and lightly fry in oil only long enough to soften the tortilla. Place on paper towels to drain. then i take the hamburger, a can of PINTO beans drained, some cheese, and enough canned enchilada sauce to moisten. Now comes time to assemble. spray some pam on the bottom of a cassarole or cake pan. Spread a little of the enchilada sauce on the bottom of the pan and begin to layer your tortilla's, then the mixture, then tortilla's, the mixture and your top layer will be a tortilla. Add just some sauce and cheese. Cover and bake until heated thru. Eat just like that or with some sour cream, guacamole, etc. This freezes well too and is well liked at my house. I would be interested to hear what recipes you did try and what you and your family thought of them! Happy eating! [/QUOTE]
