Now that Fall is in full swing and our weather is nice and cool I love warming the kitchen by cooking. Fall is always so  busy with school, work and lessons I love a fast and easy casserole that I can quickly through in the oven.

Crockpot London Broil

Crockpot London Broil is wonderful for those busy work days. I don’t use my crock pot nearly enough. I love to cook in the Fall but I have my fair share days when I reach for frozen Chicken Nuggets and Mac n’Cheese. I really need to be more organized. New Goal – make for Crock Pot Recipes.

Hooray! for easy Crock Pot recipes.

They really are life savers. The house smells so good and dinner is ready. Stress is almost instantly deflated – It’s fabulous.

  I have one problem – I forget.

Anyone else have this problem?

One thing that has helped me – here’s where the being organized part of life would really help – bring the Crock Pot out the night before. That way you see it in the morning and will remember (hopefully) to start dinner on time.

Enjoy!

Crock Pot London Broil

Ingredients:

1 – 2 pounds London broil

1 teaspoon Garlic Powder

1 – 10.5 oz. can Cream of Mushroom soup

Directions:

Oatmeal Molasses Bread

by 1 Comment

Last week I came home from work to find that my husband had been cooking up a storm.  The house smelled divine.  I looked and found he had made rolls and bread.  I said “You never make bread”.  His reply was ” I know.” He wanted to try a new kind of bread.  What he came up with was his own version of oatmeal bread we call “Oatmeal Molasses Bread”.

Steak, Onion, and Pepper Kabobs for Two

Beef Kabobs 5

My husband and I have decided it’s time to change our eating habits to be a bit healthier.  This includes watching our portion sizes and making sure we eat enough fruit and vegetables. To help us with this we started a running program that included an eating plan.  The meal plan is helpful, but does not include recipes for the menu items.  One of the meals included steak, onion, and pepper kabobs.  That was all I had to go on, I had never made kabobs before.  I like a good steak, but it is not a food we eat very often.  I am also not one for just cooking meat without seasoning.  I feel that marinated steak is sometimes better than non-marinated steak. I set off reading about marinades and looking at marinades I already like.

We have not been the greatest on keeping up with our running plan, but we have been keeping to the meal plan.  It is so nice to see us adding in more fruits and vegetables to our meals on a regular basis.  Sometimes I just cannot face a vegetable, but including them in the main dish is so helpful, not only for me, but for the kids too.  Then sometimes just putting it on a stick makes it better, kabobs are good for that.  I have loved mixing things together and eating better on a regular basis.  This meal I was worried about at first, peppers and onions are not my favorite, but this meal will be coming back in the future whether its on the meal plan or not.  I may just substitute it in every now and then.

Recipe type: Main Dish
Serves: 2
Ingredients
  • 8 oz steak
  • ⅓ cup EVOO
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 1 tbls Worcestershire Sauce
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbls dry mustard
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • ½ sweet onion
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 6-8 skewers
Instructions
  1. Cut steak into bite size pieces, about 1 inch cubed
  2. In a resealable plastic bag mix EVOO, Worcestershire Sauce, garlic, mustard, and black pepper. Put in meat. Let meat sit in marinade for 4 hours or more if desired. (Mine went just over 12 hours).
  3. While the meat is marinating, cut the onion and bell pepper into just bigger than bite size and soak the skewers for at least 30 minutes in warm water.
  4. Once everything is prepped if cooking in oven turn oven on to 350 degrees. Put meat, pepper and onion on skewers. I like steak more than peppers and onions so I made sure each skewer had 3 pieces of meat until meat ran low then I did two per skewer. Line the skewers up on a cookie sheet.
  5. Bake for about 25 minutes. I rotated my skewers about every 8 minutes.
