I shared today’s recipe 15 years ago here on my blog! I hadn’t made these in a long time, but recently in one of my cooking lessons with my grandson, I thought of this recipe and knew it would be one he could do, and would enjoy. He and his brother loved them! These are simple, made up primarily of ground beef and canned biscuits.

Menu Monday
After a few weekends on the road, we’re home for a couple weeks. That means that my empty fridge needs to be stocked! The eggs, butter and condiments are lonely in there!
I’m still making my way through my pantry and freezer, but it’s scaled back enough that I’m purchasing a few items outside the “perishable only“ category.
I pulled up my Pinterest inspirations and made up my menu for lunches and suppers. These are mostly all new recipes to me! This will be spread out over the next two weeks with other freezer staples being used as well.
I created this menu on my phone while driving home from North Carolina, then took a screen shot to show you. I also made my shopping list on my phone while I created the menu. I usually do this in my planner when I’m home, but where there’s a will, there’s a way!

Steak with Mushrooms in the Crock Pot
My memories of Sundays when I was growing up are of dinner at home for the most part. It was a special meal after church. Though it was noon-ish, we didn’t come home to sandwiches, like all the other noonday meals, but usually to a roast, or chicken. When I got married, I continued that tradition. To me it helps make Sunday stand out, and I think it also makes the family and guests feel special. It slows the day down after a busy morning serving at church, and I love that!
That being said, the meal doesn’t have to be something difficult. Thank the Lord for the crock pot! I love being able to toss the meal inside, set it on low, and head out the door, confident that when we walk back into the house, the delicious smells of supper will greet us and draw us in like my Grandma Ray’s arms used to do.
Last Saturday when I was contemplating what to make for Sunday dinner, a recipe popped into my head that I had not made in years. It’s a Baked Steak with Mushrooms. Don’t worry, if you don’t like mushrooms, you don’t have to add them. Also, rather than baking this, I put it into the crock pot. I was worried that the piece of steak I had would be a little tough, and the slow cooker would help to make it tender…oh my, did it ever!!

An American Favorite – Salisbury Steak
Recently I went to the kitchen to fix supper and I suddenly thought about an old favorite recipe, and the craving for it caused me to immediately change my menu for the night! It’s one of those comfort-food kind-of-dishes that is delicious, easy and filling, yet so simple that I had everything for it on hand already! It’s also ready in under 30 minutes!!
What did I make? Salisbury steak.! If you’re thinking about the frozen dinner variety, think again. This is meaty, plump and bursting with flavor as well as plenty of gravy to cover the meat and/or any potato you might eat with it.
