There are so many things to love about this recipe. It is hard to know where I should even start. The flavors are bold while still staying very simple, the texture is both crispy and creamy, and the acid from the vingrette cuts through the richness for another layer of flavor. The simplicity of the recipe is another huge advantage. It is perfect for a weeknight. The flank steak takes about 15 minutes to cook and while that is happening you can throw together the vinegrette in

London broil is not a tender cut of steak, but it is affordable and if you marinate it and cook it right, it can be delicious. This cut of beef is perfect for the grill or broiler (hence the name) and when it is on sale its fairly inexpensive to feed a family of four. While you will see London broil labeled as such in the store, it actually isn't a specific cut of meat, it is a way of cooking meat. The cut is generally top round steak. So if you don't see London Broil look f

Chuck roast is a great cut of beef for feeding a larger group on a smaller budget. You can generally get a 3-4 lb roast for around $15 and it would feed 4-6 people. This is a good cold weather cut of beef. The braising makes the meat fall apart and the fat throughout adds a bunch of flavor to this dish. Chuck roast can be cooked in so many different ways. Another favorite of mine is the Mississippi Pot Roast. Look it up if you haven't tried it before. This is just one yummy

I love a good stuffed flank steak. The stuffing possibilities are endless and it is a great alternative to flank steak with a sauce over top (which is generally the other way I enjoy flank steak.) If you want a flavor packed stuffed flank steak recipe check out my Marinated Stuffed Flank Steak , where I stuffed the steak spinach, red peppers and provolone. Using the flank steak to create pinwheels is even easier and quicker than stuffing it. I loved all the fresh basil that f

This is a blog post that is near and dear to my heart at the moment. My husband and I are currently preparing for our first child to arrive sometime in the next couple weeks. (Which also explains why it has been so long since my last blog post.) As part of that preparation I am filling the freezer with meals that we will be able to easily enjoy with every little effort, once our little one arrives. My goal is to have 24 nights worth of dinners cooked. I figure with a night

As I sit in the comfort of my warm house, I see winter in full force outside of my window. A weekend blizzard has moved in, bringing inches and most likely even feet of snow with it. Although as I watch the snow gently fall, I believe the weather forecasters were a little over zealous. That said, when you are planning for a long winter weekend indoors you can't help but think about the food you are going too cook, as long as the power stays on. Everyone around me was stocking

Prime Rib is the perfect cut of meat to prepare for a special occasion. The best part is, it is much easier then you probably think. It is just a roast like any other roast. However, it is packed with flavor and definitely pricier. At this time of year though you can often find it on sale. Buy it with the bone it. Not only will this make it more affordable, it will make it more flavorful. The recipe below will definitely feed 6 and could feed more. Ingredients 3 bone Prime R
