Happy holidays to all! And I celebrate Christmas but you may not. So happy to you what you celebrate. Many people celebrating happiness and family and togetherness.
It’s been awhile. I thought I would make myself write. I have not been in a pleasant mood.
For our pre-thanksgiving feast I made a boxed cake and used tubs of store-bought frosting. Does it matter? I did not even read the ingredients. There could be high fructose corn syrup and unnatural colors and flavors in there! Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! I did make the pie crust from scratch and the traditional “Betty Crocker” pumpkin pie. Didn’t buy whipped cream though! I bought a nice little package of pearl onions to make creamed onions but did not do that either. And no homemade rolls. Cinderella was feeling lonely and tired. Everyone enjoyed the meal anyway. We had grilled Ribeyes, baked sweet and russet potatoes, green salad with lime dressing, cornbread (made earlier for lunch with homemade soup which no one ate), layered rainbow sprinkle cake and pumpkin pie. And granddaughter put two candles on the cake, one for her (3) and one for her daddy (33).
So now Hubby is making a Stroganoff with the leftovers from the Rib eye steaks. My idea but he is doing the work. He had the day off; I went to work.
Mise en place:
- leftover ribeye, cut from bone, 8-10 ounces
- one onion, chopped fine
- one half green pepper, chopped fine
- 8 ounces mushrooms, diced
- 1/4 stick butter
- 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire, divided
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup yogurt
- 1/2 package egg noodles, cooked
Melt butter and saute onions until translucent. Add peppers and then mushrooms. Gave it a stir and then threw in the meat. Another stir and then add a dash or two of Worcestershire Sauce. Add the sour cream and yogurt. Mix and add Worcestershire all over low heat. Stir in cooked noodles. Serve in bowls. Enjoy!
Yummy dinner and all I had to do was type the instructions.
Note to cook: take a healthy sip of wine between each ingredient!
Also Hubby says to add fresh snap peas when dish is hot for additional favors. ANd what is weird is that he dreamed all of this last night!
