Creamed Chipped Beef - S. O. S. (For Biscuits or Toast)
"This was a staple for my family when we had young kids because it was cheap, delicious and easy. These days the kids are all adults and not only do they love it, but all 4 generations in our house love it! We do tend to like things a bit saltier than a lot of folks, so because the beef is already a bit salty, you can leave out the bouillon and just add salt to your taste. Our favorite way to have this is over biscuits."

My husband and I are retired military officers and have eaten a lot of S.O.S. in our life. This recipe is by far, one of the best we have had. I used 8 ounces of ground beef instead of the Buddig beef and served it over biscuits, and it was fantastic. My husband asked for seconds of this dish, which he rarely does with anything. -
This is exactly the way my Mother made this dish, and me too for 40 years. It may be simple, but so good. I even spooned this onto baked potatoes once, and it was delicious. Thanks for reminding me.....I haven't made it in a long time.

I grew up in Tucson but moved to Colorado in 1989 and live in a household with my husband, Dad, daughter and 3-year old twin granddaughters. Our 8-year old grandson spends 2 nights a week with us. All of that adds up to often difficult menu ideas to met everyone's tastes.
Zaar is very addicting and I love trying the recipes I find here. I like to find recipes of people that I see are still active on Zaar and love it when I hear back from the Chef after I review the recipe. Everytime someone reviews one of my recipes, I like to find one of theirs to make and review as quickly as possible. It's a way for me to find great chefs I don't know yet too!
My husband has high blood sugar so we try to watch our carbs, but it is not easy because we love them so much!
I was diagnosed with brain tumors in 2005 and so far have had 5 surgeries that have left my eyelid droopy. I hope to have a surgery that will correct that soon!! There is still one tumor they have not removed but my wonderful doctor James Garrity at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN says they will leave it alone until or if it ever causes problems!
