I need recipes to use with ground beef! I cannot afford to buy expensive cuts of meat and
use casseroles quite a bit. Does anyone have anything great to share? Thanks!

My son loves cheese. I remember a cheese bread that they used to serve in the school
lunch program when I was a child that had bread on top and bottom with cheese in the
middle and when cut up into squares it was like eating cheese sandwiches. Does
anybody have the recipe for this, or something similar? Thank you in advance for your
help!

Nicole,

Here are two tried and true recipes for homemade tortillas.

FLOUR TORTILLAS

4 c. flour
2 t. salt
4 t. baking powder
2 T. shortening
1 ½ c. warm water, more if needed

In a large bowl, stir together the flour, salt and baking powder. With a pastry blender, a
fork or your hands, gradually work in the shortening until it is all incorporated. Add
enough warm water to make a soft, but not sticky, dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured
board and knead for 5 minutes. Divide the dough into 1/4 cup portions and form them into
balls. Roll each ball into a flat round about 6" in diameter and 1/8" thick. Heat a large,
heavy skillet over medium high heat. Place the tortillas, one at a time, into the dry, hot
skillet; cook until brown on one side, then turn and brown the other side, approximately
30-45 seconds per side. Makes about 16 tortillas.

BISQUICK TORTILLAS

1 c. flour
1 c. Bisquick baking mix
½ c. water
1 t. salt

Combine all of the above, forming a pliable dough. Knead for 10 minutes. On floured
surface, roll out small balls of dough to desired thickness. Brown each in a cast iron fry
pan or on griddle.

Hi,

This is for Kelly, This is the one thing both my kids ask for even in their "great" old age.

Fried Potatoes

Amount of Potatoes you would usually use, peeled and sliced about 1/8th of an inch.
(older potatoes are best used as the starch has turned to sugar and they brown better.

Use a Heavy skillet, very hot. Do not put in shortening until the skillet is very hot. Use
vegetable shortening and not oil. Potatoes don't usually brown well in oil. After the
shortening has melted, add the potatoes. Cover well with salt and pepper and paprika.
(The paprika is any restaraunt's secret on making things look brown). Let the potatoes
cook in the very hot grease for 3 or 4 minutes, then turn them. That first turn should
produce some nice browned potatoes. Cover, lower heat, cook for about 15 minutes
depending on the amount of potatoes you have in skillet. Turn over about every 4-5
minutes. The last 5 minutes, take off the lid to cook out any extra liquid that the potatoes
have put out. Keep turning frequently. Your potatoes should come out brown and crispy
and nice. Your grandma would be proud!
