Slow Cooker Meatball Stroganoff

Just because I’m throwing a bunch of stuff into the slow cooker doesn’t mean I don’t expect greatness in 8 hours or so. This slow cooker meatball Stroganoff really hit the spot on a cold day. Tender meatballs (you can use pre-cooked or make your own, whatever floats your boat!). Creamy sauce (I could’ve eaten a bowl of the sauce when no one was watching). Just what I wanted. Simple comfort food at its best.

Slow Cooker Meatball Stroganoff

I used store-bought meatballs from the freezer section because, hey, they were on sale! That and I didn’t have time to make meatballs from scratch for this slow cooker meatball stroganoff. If you do use homemade meatballs make sure you cook them fully first. You do still want to get a bit of a sear on the outside. Texture is important when cooking in a slow cooker and that sear will give you just that. Plus the yum-yums leftover in the pan after browning the meatballs really makes the sauce taste fantastic. Don’t just throw the meatballs into the crockpot as is, brown them first!

Quick Fix Rotisserie Chicken-Seasoned Potato Chips

My local grocery store puts their hot-out-of-the-roaster rotisserie chickens near the entrance for a reason. They know the aroma will drive me crazy and get me to hankerin’ for rotisserie chicken. What they don’t know is it actually makes me crave my quick fix rotisserie chicken-seasoned potato chips instead! Yep, that same great flavor as the classic chicken, all on a crunchy chip! Ready in minutes, these are some highly addicting snacks! I recommend making a big batch and serving these at the next game party at your house. Everyone will be pleasantly surprised as they enjoy these totally different chips!

Quick Fix Rotisserie Chicken-Seasoned Potato Chips

I recommend that you use a ‘heavy hand’ when it comes time to add the seasoning to your quick fix rotisserie chicken-seasoned potato chips. Get some on each and every chip. Front and back. Edge to edge. Be gentle with the chips as you stir them, too. Even with thick chips you might break them if you stir them too hard. Nice and easy is what you are looking for. No one wants broken, dinky-sized chips. They want big, crunchy, heavily-seasoned chips!

I prefer to use wavy chips for this recipe. The ridges capture the seasoning better, so more sticks to the chips. That’s why we’re here, right? More seasoning!

Copycat Campbell’s Bean and Bacon Soup

When I was a young kid, barely knee-high to a grasshopper, bean and bacon soup was by far my favorite canned soup. I remember cold days, playing in the snow, only to run inside to a big ole bowl of hot, satisfying soup. Well, a few years later I now enjoy my copycat Campbell’s bean and bacon soup. Same great taste, same great texture, and still as satisfying as ever. This is one great bowl full of deliciousness! And best of all it tastes just like I remember from years ago.

Copycat Campbell's Bean and Bacon Soup

The recipe for this copycat Campbell’s bean and bacon soup calls for a few cups of ham stock. I dunno about you, but I don’t have any ham stock on hand. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever made ham stock. I probably should. But until then I have to take a little shortcut and use ham base. Ham base is something I do have on hand because I found that it makes for the best slow cooker ham and bean soup! It is crazy packed with flavor and is well worth finding in your local grocery store or online!

Instructions

  • Place the beans in a large bowl. Add enough water to cover them by 2". Let them soak overnight.
  • Drain the beans and place in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  • Crumble in the bacon and add the carrots, celery, onion, thyme, garlic, tomato paste, pepper, water and ham stock.
  • Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer, stirring continuously to dissolve the tomato paste.
  • Cover and simmer for 3 hours or until the beans are tender. About 30 minutes in, taste the liquid and add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Ladle out 2 cups of the soup into a bowl and let cool slightly. Transfer to a blender (working in batches if needed) and process until smooth. Pour the pureed soup back into the pot and stir.
  • Stir in the vinegar and liquid smoke.
  • Taste and add more salt and pepper as needed.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

If you don’t have ham stock you can make your own or substitute water. To make your own, combine 2 teaspoons of ham base with 2 cups of water in a small sauce pan over medium-high heat. Stir until the ham base dissolves. Use the liquid as a substitute for the ham stock.

Garlic Herb Sous Vide Potatoes

I’ve lost count of how many times we’ve made these garlic herb sous vide potatoes in the last week or two. The weather has been nice and that meant grilling. I was looking for an easy side. Now, I didn’t make these potatoes on the grill, but I did finish them there. You can finish them in a skillet on the stovetop too. Either way, they’re packed with a wonderful garlic and herb flavors.

The perfect side dish

The potatoes are cooked perfectly. They’re velvety creamy inside. Finishing them off over high heat adds a nice crunchy layer. These potatoes make for a great side dish.

Garlic Herb Sous Vide Potatoes

As written, the amounts of dried herbs used infuse a good amount of flavor into these garlic herb sous vide potatoes. We like our potatoes to pack flavor. If you’re a little on the ‘less is more’ side when it comes to dried herbs, I’d suggest using slightly less thyme and oregano. You can change your mind and add a bit more when you are browning the potatoes after they’re cooked.

If you prefer to finish the potatoes on a grill, no problem! Just use a cast iron skillet or griddle over direct high heat.

I use an Anova sous vide cooker. It’s my immersion circulator workhorse!

Copycat Chili Cheese Hamburger Helper

Sure, you can grab a box of Hamburger Helper from the store and make up a batch of stick-to-your-ribs pasta and burger. It’s the perfect one-dish meal. Or you could make this copycat Chili Cheese Hamburger Helper and do what I did: add more cheese! Ok, no, you don’t have to add more cheese. But you could. Ah, the joys of cooking at home, specially when it’s cold out and you need something to warm you up. This dish fits the bill perfectly.

Copycat Chili Cheese Hamburger Helper

It really can’t get much easier than this copycat Chili Cheese Hamburger Helper. I’ve been known to change it up a bit sometimes. You definitely don’t have to use elbow macaroni, though it is the classic ingredient for sure. Pepper jack cheese makes for a nice change instead of cheddar. A little kick never hurt anyone. Ground turkey or chicken instead of beef are winners, too! So go crazy with it!

Just make sure you do drain the beef (or whatever protein you use) well before adding the rest of the ingredients.

Bacon and Blue Cheese French Fries

Oh me. There are few things as dangerous as a plate of bacon and blue cheese French fries. If ever there was something that causes my self-control to go totally out the window, this is it. It all starts with perfectly crispy, delicious French fries. Homemade. Hot out of the deep-fryer. Then comes the blue cheese sauce. That wonderful funky cheese flavor. Creamy with hints of garlic and shallot. Delicious. And finally, bacon. Crispy, smoky, perfectly-cooked bacon. These are the fries dreams are made of.

Bacon and Blue Cheese French Fries

If I’m cooking these bacon and blue cheese French fries for a crowd, I’ll break out my big deep fryer. But, if it’s just the two of us, I’ll fire up my Fry Daddy fryer. It’s the perfect size for both of us. It fries everything perfectly. And as an added bonus, it doesn’t use a lot of oil, which saves me money.

If you’d rather not make fries from scratch, you can use frozen ones instead. Just bake the fries per the package instructions, making sure you get them good and crispy While they’re baking, make the sauce and cook the bacon. Serve hot-out-of-the-oven.

These fries were the perfect side dish for my pub sauce smash burgers.

Ingredients

For the fries

For the blue cheese fry sauce

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup shallot small diced
  • 2 cloves garlic diced
  • 1 cup blue cheese crumbled
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

For the blue cheese sauce (make first and keep warm while making the fries)

  • Add butter to a small skillet over medium heat.
  • Add shallot and garlic. Saute for 4-5 minutes or until just starting to soften.
  • Add the cheese, milk and pepper.
  • Stirring constantly, raise the heat to medium-high and let the mixture get to a simmer. The cheese should be melted and the sauce will start to thicken.
  • Remove from heat and cover until ready to use.

For the fries

  • Fill a large bowl with cold water.
  • Slice the potatoes into thin, 1/8″-1/4″ sticks. Try to keep them the same thickness.
  • Place fries into the water. Add more water if needed to keep them full submerged.
  • Add the oil to the fryer and plug it in according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Drain the fries. Refill with more cold water. Stir the potatoes. Repeat this step (draining, refilling) until the water is no longer cloudy. This usually just takes me two times.
  • Drain the potatoes well and transfer to a large kitchen towel. Pat dry. Make sure you get them dry or they will splatter when you add them to the hot oil.
  • Working in batches if needed, fry the potatoes until just starting to turn a light brown. You are not cooking them fully, you do not want them to be golden brown yet. Do not over-crowd the fryer.
  • Remove the fries from the fryer using the slotted spoon that comes with the unit. Place on a wire rack over a baking pan to drain. Spread them out evenly.
  • Let the fries cool to room temperature, about 10 minutes.
  • Working in batches if necessary, return the fries to the fryer and finish cooking them. You want them nice and lightly golden brown. I’ve found that you can actually crowd the fryer a little more than usual for this step. The fries are mostly cooked, you’re just crisping them up and giving them some color so a little extra potatoes in there isn’t going to hurt. Just don’t over-fill the fryer.
  • Remove the fries to the wire rack again to drain. Season well with salt and pepper. I prefer to transfer the fries from the rack to a large bowl, sprinkle them with the seasonings, and toss to season evenly.
  • Transfer the fries to a serving dish and top with the cheese sauce and sprinkle with the bacon.

French Onion Dip Popcorn

Now that it’s a bit cooler out, Sunday afternoons have become our ‘movie time’. We curl up on the sofa and find a classic movie we’ve both always wanted to see. And that means we need a snack to go with it. This French onion dip popcorn was the ideal bowl of crunchy delicious goodness for our latest film choice, Rebel Without A Cause. Quite frankly, I’m not sure which was better. The popcorn or the film!

Copycat Outback Steakhouse Gold Coast Coconut Shrimp

Oh me. It was a happy day for the shrimp addict in me. I made copycat Outback Steakhouse Gold Coast coconut shrimp, along with an orange marmalade dipping sauce. The shrimp were incredible. So crispy. The perfect batter. And loaded with fantastic coconut. They were delicious and great on their own. But oh, they weren’t served by themselves. Alongside, the dipping sauce added a unique taste that offset some of that coconut sweetness. The two made for an unforgettable dinner dish.

Copycat Outback Steakhouse Gold Coast Coconut Shrimp

Although the shrimp are the star of the show in these copycat Outback Steakhouse Gold Coast coconut shrimp, I cannot overstate how great the dipping sauce is. It’s somewhat reminiscent of cocktail sauce in that it has a good horseradish flavor. The orange keeps the tropical theme going. And along comes a great mustardy hit. It may sound a bit different, but I assure you, it’s different in a great way. There were no leftover shrimp or dipping sauce.

I used by small Fry Daddy fryer to make this dish. That required me to cook them in batches. For a quicker fry, ensuring that everything is done at the same time, I’d recommend using a larger fryer or Dutch oven.

I think this old fashioned shrimp dip is perfect just as it is. You could, though, substitute crab for the shrimp. I’d be ok with that. Specially since I’m a crab addict in addition to being a shrimp addict. It’s a great dip either way. Just grab lots of crackers!
