Requested Recipes

When I posted my summer menu I got a couple of requests for recipes. Okay, it floors me that people would actually want recipes from little ole domestically challenged me, but when you see the simplicity of these recipes it all makes sense.

Cowboy Beans
Brown about a pound of ground chuck along with about 1/4-1/2 of a chopped onion. Drain excess grease. Add several cans of pork-n-beans to make the meat to bean ration whatever you want it to be. Add some paprika to taste. Serve with crackers.

This one is a big hit with the boys, not so much with the girls because we aren't big meat and bean eaters.

Sullivan's Salad
You'll probably recognize this one. It's based on a dish from a fancy restaurant here in town that we've only been able to visit a couple of times. It's the kind of place with valet parking and everything is a la carte.

Take a wedge of iceberg lettuce and surround it with bacon crumbles, chopped tomatoes, possibly some chopped onions, and chopped hard boiled eggs (optional). Buy the best blue cheese dressing you can afford and pour some over the top of the wedge. Sprinkle with blue cheese crumbles.

See! Easy! The only way to cook!
