Tiggerr's Recipe Box

Welcome to my "Recipe Box"

As I try to get all of my many recipe's gathered, purged and organized, I have been making lots of new things. Some of the recipe's you will see here have come from specific places. The origins of others remain a mystery. When I can identify a source, I'll indicate it so you can find more sources of great food.

Beef Stroganoff

Tuesday, 30 April 2013

I looked on line yesterday for a beef stroganoff recipe that wasn't a crockpot recipe, (I was using round steak and a day in the crockpot would turn it to mush) and didn't use a blasted can of cream of something soup.  After I weeded those out I noticed that just about everyone had posted the same recipe that called for 3 Tablespoons of chili sauce.  I my opinion, chili sauce is just expensive ketchup.   Read full recipe

Pasta Con Broccoli

I am a creature of habit, so that my preference at any new Italian Restaurant is Pasta Con Broccoli. If they can't make a good version of my favorite dish, then why bother coming back, right? I have tried many versions, some very complicated, some using canned Cream of Mushroom soup (not a very good choice) None of them matched or even came close to the version I used to get at Del Pietro's here in town.

The sauce is really easy and meaty.  I double the same sauce with half the meat for my spaghetti with meat sauce   Read full recipe
