Two recipes to share, both based on what was recently on sale or marked down.

Crockpot Steak

Put steaks in bottom of crock pot. Add two cans Golden Mushroom soup. If so inclined you can also add onions and mushrooms. Cook on high at least 6 hours, until the meat  falls apart. Serve over cooked egg noodles.  - My mom used to use regular Cream of Mushroom soup but my hubby prefers the Golden Mushroom so that's how I make it now.

 

 

This is an old favorite from a cookbook from the 70's:

Pork Marengo

Source: BH&G Crockery Cooker Cook Book

  • 2 lbs. boneless pork shoulder,cut into 1" cubes
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 Tbsp. cooking oil
  • 1 16oz. can diced tomatoes (I  use two because we like extra sauce)
  • 1 tsp. instant chicken bouilon
  • 1 tsp. dried marjoram, crushed
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. dried thyme, crushed
  • dash pepper
  • 1 3oz. can mushrooms stems and pieces
  • 1/3 cup cold water
  • 3 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • Hot cooked rice.

In a skillet brown the pork and the onion in batches in hot oil.  Drain off flavor fat   (I actually never do)Transfer meat and  onion to the crockpot. Put tomatoes, bouillon, marjoram, salt, thyme and pepper into skillet and stir together scraping browned bits off the bottom. Pour mixture over pork in crockpot. Cover, cook on low 8-10 hours. Turn to high heat settings and stir in drained mushrooms. Blend flour and cold water together until smooth. Pour into pork mixture. Cook, uncovered, on high heat 15-20 minutes until mixture thickens, stirring occasionally. Serve over rice. Serves 6-8.
