Recipes

Beefy Broccoli Pie
(From Taste of Home: Ground Beef Cookbook)
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 package (10 ounces) frozen cut broccoli, cooked and drained
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
2 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls, divided
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese

In a skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add broccoli and soup; mix well. Unroll one tube of crescent rolls. Press into a greased 13x9 in baking pan. Seal seams and perforations. Top with meat mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Unroll remaining crescent dough and place over meat mixture; seal seams and perforations. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 6-8 servings.


Flour Tortillas
2 Cups flour

1 tsp honey
2 Tablespoons soft butter
2/3 Cup cold water

Mix flour, honey and butter with pastry cutter or fork. Add water a little at a time til dough sticks together. Pinch off golf ball size pieces and roll out very thin on a floured surface. Fry on ungreased griddle or pan (cast iron works great) until several large bubbles rise. Turn and cook 30 – 45 seconds until LIGHT brown spots appear. Do not overcook. Leftovers should be lightly wrapped and stored in refrigerator.

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 teaspoons ground ginger

In a large skillet, cook beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add mushrooms. cook and stir for 3-5 minutes. Stir in the vermicelli, broccoli, soy sauce and ginger; toss to coat. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 4-6 servings.
