In honor of the season! This is a favorite with the boys...what boy doesn't like a little meat and potatoes!
Prepare in crockpot to cook on low all day:
1 lb lean ground beef
1 lb bison or lamb
1 onion sliced
1 T garlic in oil
1-2 cups beef broth
salt and pepper
4 carrots, sliced
1 cup chopped fresh spinach
1 cup chopped mushrooms
1/2-1 cup corn (we use leftovers or omit)
low heat all day...that afternoon, prepare 1 batch mashed potatoes-
in boiling water add 4 cut potatoes (yukon)
cook til tender, drain and add...
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
2 T butter
salt and pepper
Pour meat mixture into dish and top with potatoes and bake 10 minutes. Also good lined or topped with potatoes here.
meat mixture...
just noticed another version of this is on the blog! We tweeked it a little and came up with this that we like a little better!
(this is made with leftover smoked turkey and chicken.)
sautee 5 T butter in a dutch oven with
1 cup cut onion and mushroom combined
add 5 T wheat flour and make paste
slowly add one box chicken stock
and 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (alternating a little at a time, stirring in between) We do this because of our milk allergy does not allow the shortcut of those "cream of" soups!
add...
as much leftover chicken as wanted
1/2 c corn
1/2 c broccoli cuts
1/2 c green beans
1/2 c peas/carrots
simmer til needed adding water if too thick.
We served in bread bowls.
This is a wonderful easy dessert! Our kids call it doughnut casserole!
Set torn up bread in long casserole dish morning or night before preparing. (bread should be crispy!)
10-14 pieces bread. hot dog/burger buns,rolls,bagels, biscuits (any bread!)
4 cups almond milk
1/4 cup butter
3 eggs (or replacer)
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 tsp almond extract (or vanilla)
preheat oven 350... Heat milk and butter in pot on low heat til butter is melted. Pour that mixture over bread. In bowl mix egg replacer and sugar and extract. Also pour over breads and stir all together. Bake 40 minutes.
For sauce... melt 1/2 cup butter and 1 cup powdered sugar and 1 tsp almond extract. Pour over baked pudding. Slice and serve. Store in refrigerator and warm up to serve again!
Note: To make pumpkin bread pudding, use enough pumpkin bread to be 1/2 of total bread and sprinkle with cinnamon before baking. (above picture is pumpkin bread pudding)
great use for leftover barbque, pork, hamburger meat, chicken or turkey...
~1 lb meat, if pulled, shred in food processor...place in bottom of large casserole dish, set aside.
in a bowl mix:
1 cup milk or unsweetened soy milk
2 eggs (or substitute)
1 c yellow corn meal
salt and pepper
1 tsp each garlic and onion powder
1/2 c grated cheese
1/2-1 stick melted butter
1 cup corn (I use fire roasted), blended
Mix well and pour over meat mixture. Bake at 375 for 40 minutes.
Serve with salad and black or refried beans. Top with sour cream or salsa and tortilla chips!
We make a lot of bread... having a bread maker is wonderful and dangerous! We always have a few pieces leftover when we make that next loaf, and once it is hot, the previous just won't do! We use the last pieces for a lot of things... bread pudding (I will post that one soon!), for homemade croutons... tear or cut in pieces and place in zipper plastic bag with a little olive oil or melted butter, some sprinkles of parsley, oregano or basil and crushed red pepper, seal and shake and pour on baking sheet, 350 for 5-7 minutes... delicious!, or freeze leftover bread and, when needed, thaw and put in food processor for bread crumb topping, and finally, leftover bread makes really good french toast!
