Ingredients: fresh Italian parsley, pecorino romano cheese...

"A delicious conglomerate of beef and vegetables in a rich tomato soup. I made this regularly when my kids were growing up. We ate a lot of ground beef because it was economical. This was an invention of mine while looking for another way to cook hamburger. I served it with cornbread or crackers. It was great!"

Ingredients: white potatoes, pepper...

Ingredients: pepper, cracker crumbs, eggs...

"This is a one-dish meal with great flavors that you eat, and eat, and then eat again later. It makes a large amount, but never lasted more than a few days in my family.

My dad got this recipe from my Aunt Barb when he found out he had celiac disease (allergic to wheat). It's the first thing I remember my dad cooking on a regular basis,..."

Ingredients: ground sirloin, green peppers...

"Being a Midwesterner born and bred, I (Heather) have had more than my fair share of meatloaf. As a child, I ordered open-faced meatloaf sandwiches every single time I went to my grandparents' diner. My grandpa said it was going to come out of my ears! :-) This recipe from Food & Wine magazine (Feb 1989, p. 131-132)is by far my favorite. The..."

"This soup is so hearty and filling, but very healthy and low cal! We gobbled this up in two days! I chose not to add any pasta-the potatoes giving enough starch for me. If I decided to add 1 1/2 cups small pasta, i think i would cook it half-way, then add it at last 10 minutes and possibly add another 1/4 cup of water. This can also be made vegetarian..."

Ingredients: cut green beans, lean ground chuck...

"This derives from my mothers cabbage roll recipe. Rolling those darn things is too time consuming, so...I came up with this short, less labor intensive version, and best of all tastes the same! Easily can be doubled for a potluck pleaser"

"This is quick and easy to make. Kids love to eat it! One of my families favorite dishes."

Ingredients: pepper, shell pasta, hamburger...

"I have had these burgers dissapear right before my very eyes. Warning, they are hot, but youcan cut out the chilis and add something else. I mark this as a kid pleaser because my kids love them, but they may be too spicy for others. I never measure, so they turn out differently every time, but this is a rough estimate of them. Freeze them individually..."

Ingredients: cinnamon, lean hamburger...
