I have been absolutely dying for some chili since I switched to a ketogenic diet on 11/25 (already down 26lbs). I just could not seem to figure out a way to get that taste and mouth feel that I crave. I prefer sweet style, which just means it has beans and a higher amount of liquid than say...

I posted this recipe kind of in the Saturday Dinner thread, but I tweaked it a bit today and it came out even better. Seriously I think it might be the best wing sauce I have ever had. That is saying something considering how much I love wings. This is for about 20 wing pieces generously...

So a couple weeks ago I switched to a ketogenic diet. The first week was rough, very hard to control my carb cravings. This week has been much better and I have not really had any carb cravings, though they still sound good lol. This recipe is loosely based on one of my Runza recipes, but...

For example, there are certain foods that I simply cannot eat without the corresponding side. I don't mean I prefer them together, I mean I won't/can't eat them. There are several foods I can't eat without cottage cheese. Beans & wieners, tater tot casserole & cheeseburger hamburger helper...

I know most people have a tater tot casserole recipe, but I thought I would share mine. This is actually the combination of my grandmother's, my mother's and my recipe which I like better then any of the three individual ones. 1-1.5 lb lean ground beef 1 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup...

I am so hungry for chili I thought I would post my favorite chili recipe. This makes a very large batch and I use my biggest stock pot or I split it into two slow cookers. You can easily half it if you don't want to make as much, but if freezes very well. This chili will be thinish with lots...

This is the only recipe I have from my father's side of the family, its his mothers pot roast recipe. The basic recipe is very simple and I am sure lots of other people use very similar ones. Basic recipe: Chuck roast, I don't trim the fat, really helps the flavor one can cream of mushroom...

The fried green tomato recipe brought something to mind. I tried to plant tomatoes in pots this year and 2 of the 4 plants don't look like they are going to make it, they are turning brown. There are a lot of smallish (a couple inches around) hard green tomatoes on the plants. Can I use those...

This is my take on beef stew, it is pretty different from traditional and it usually ends a a little thinner than traditional as well. I usually make a double batch divided into two slow cookers and freeze them in individual serving containers. It makes a great alternative to cold lunches in...

Just curious what bread everyone uses for their every day bread? For the last 15 years we have been using Rotella's Steakhouse Twist, not just twist but it has to be Steakhouse Twist. Its very moist and chewy and has a flavor that we fell in love with. A few times we have purchased the twist...

Don't overlook this even if you don't like spam! I can't stand it, but LOVE this recipe. My mom got it from a friend and we tried it and it has been something we eat 5-6 times a year since and love it every time. We tried this with ham and it just wasn't the same, for some reason the...

This is an easy meal to throw together the night before and turn on in the slow cooker when you get up in the morning. I actually prepare it right in the slow cooker insert and then stick in in the fridge for the next morning. It does not sound like much but it turns out wonderful. 2 lbs of...

A favorite Nebraska meal, especially when freezing at a Husker game in October! Someone thought I should write my recipes in traditional format so I will try. I actually have 3 different recipes, the first one is the more authentic version and then I have 2 easier Runza casserole recipes...

This is one of my absolute favorite recipes. I have developed this recipe over many many tries and I have finally stopped tweaking it. Preheat the oven to 450. Generously sprinkle 4-5 thick cut pork chops with Hidden Valley ranch powder on both sides. Drain a large can of sauerkraut...

This is a recipe I got from my aunt and I make these at least a couple times a month, super easy and tastes WAY better then the canned crud! I start with about 2.5 lbs of 90% lean hamburger. I find I don't drain the 90% and it leaves just enough fat for great taste but not greasy. Brown the...

This is an easy pasta salad, one of the few recipes that I got from my mother who hates to cook! You just need 1lb package of rotini pasta, I like the garden kind for the different colors. 1 6.5oz can of sliced black olives, 3-4 oz of sliced green olives or even better greek Kalamata olives...

Hello all! I made a couple of recipe posts and thought I had better post here as well.:smile: I am a home cook, my great grandmother introduced me to cooking when I was very young. I have been cooking since I was probably 6-7. I am a single father to two boys, one away in college and one...

Ranch mushrooms are a great side dish and are especially great with steaks. This is a bulk recipe, I make them in large batches and freeze them in single sized tuppaware containers. The original recipe is super easy, so I will include that first if you just want a small batch: 1-1.5 lbs of...

Hello all, this is my first post! Today I am making something new, using an easy base marinade that I use for chicken for several different recipes. I prefer to use boneless skinless chicken thighs rather than breasts, my family and I prefer the taste and they are more moist. I buy them in...
