Oven-Fried Turkey Burgers

Another good recipe this week...Oven Fried Turkey Burgers with Bourbon Barbecue Sauce.  I also used the technique for coating in corn flakes with store-bought turkey patties.  The kids gobbled them up.

Gnocci soup--pinterest tested!

Gnocchi is my favorite food, in any preparation.  There is no other food like it.  I had to try the Gnocchi, Sausage and Spinach Soup that I repinned on Pinterest.  You can tell by the picture that I did not have spinach, so I substituted peas.  Excellent flavor.  I did make a preparation change from the posted recipe to save the number of pans to wash.  I browned the sausage and garlic first and removed them from the pot with any leftover drippings from the sausage. Then I sauteed the onion and red pepper.  I had homemade gnocchi in the freezer.  Yum.

Braised Chuck Roast

Some recipes are good and you might make them another time. Some recipes are great and you can make it over and over. This one is great!  I have make this Slow-Cooked Italian-Style Chuck Roast and have done different things with it.  Sometimes I add potatoes and carrots, other times I have used the leftover sauce and beef to make a soup.  Last night, I served the chuck roast over risotto.  Wow, that was good!  One bad thing...there weren't any leftovers.
