I don't claim to be a great cook or to have any original recipes. I love collecting new and interesting recipes and I especially love all my old favorites that I have used over the years. Many recipes are from family and friends and I love them because every time I use them I am reminded of that person and/or some great memories that are attached. I am using this format to begin to put all my recipes in one place. I have attempted this in many different ways but none have been very successful. I am hoping that this will do the trick. Right now for recipes I reference a few different cookbooks, a small 3x5 card box, and a large plastic tub with loose papers. Not a great system. This is my new leaf. Ideally, every day I can put at least one of my recipes into this blog. This will make it so easy and quick for me to refer to and also to share my favorites with friends and family who ask for recipes.

Shepherd's Pie

Hamburger
onion
corn
mashed potatoes
grated cheddar cheese
salt and pepper
Lawry's seasoning salt

Brown and drain hamburger
Add onion, chopped or dried
Season to taste, cover and simmer
Add lots of corn (frozen is best), season to taste, cover and simmer
When heated through add mix to large baking pan.
Spread prepared mashed potatoes, made to taste, over top.
Generously sprinkle cheddar cheese over top.
Bake @ 350 until hot and bubbly and cheese is melted.

Major staple in my home growing up. I am putting in the recipe for memories sake. We all knew how to throw this together for dinner from a very early age! Of course it was served for Phil's first dinner at my house.
