Western Meal in One
"Another easy great recipe, can't remember where I got it from, but it is a good one, remember trying it when I had some ground beef thawed and didn't know what to make for dinner, and found this, the family loved it. It's one of those dishes you can always put togerther fast, and always seem to have the ingredients handy. I think it was about 5 or 6 years ago. Been making it every since."

I've been making this recipe since we moved to Sacramento in 76 and got a Sunset Magazine Cookbook from the Welcome Wagon (Does that organization still exist???) Anyway, my daughter still makes it, and my sister-in-law in Missouri! It's definitely a family tradition! A little time to put it together, then in the oven it goes! The Olives and Cheese really make it special! -
This is an awsome recipe. I too am not sure where I got it, but whenever we have a church dinner people request that I bring it. I usually do it in my crockpot which makes it even easier. I am so thankful for this site. I lost my recipe & needed to make for tomorrow & my nephew gave me this site. Thanks so much!!!!!!

I have always loved to cook. This got me into trouble with my wieght, because I loved to eat what I cooked. I am now a weight watcher, I have to lighten most recipes. My favorite cookbooks are Taste of Home & Taste of Home Light. MY pet peeve is boxed dinners. I do love simple and quick though.
I have 3 grown sons, one is in last semester of college, one is married and a new baby is on the way, so I will be grandma in January.
My daughter-in-law hates to cook, they order prepared food off the internet, that makes me crazy. ha.
I love animals, but right now only have one dog. A bloodhound. She is so loveable, I would recommend this breed to anyone as long as you have patience, but they are one of the most loving breeds out there.My married son has 3 lab. retrievers,a baby will be easy after those 3 monsters, as I lovingly called them when they were pups. My oldest son has a Rottwieller. I have had 3 Rotts, they have all pasted, buy they are a really great breed. They are so smart and loveable, I guess that's why people who chose to make them bad, can do so, all they want to do is please their owners.
My real passion is shoes, shoes, shoes. I also love jewelry, but shoes, shoes, shoes,!!!!!
Update I am finally grandma to the prettiest baby girl ever. She was born on Jan. 15, her name is Mariah. She is perfect!
