Satisfying Steak & Potato Dinner Salad {with Chimichurri Sauce}
Steak & Potato Dinner Salad with Chimichurri Sauce here we come!! When we unofficially declared April as Salad Month, I’m not sure my husband was 100% on board. Don’t get me wrong he loves salad and makes amazing salads with great ingredients (one of the many reasons I love him). He also loves a steak and potatoes. This salad is a tribute to him. The salad loving, steak worshiping man of my dreams.

Chicken Marsala Meatballs for National Meatball Day!
We shall make Chicken Marsala Meatballs. Because TODAY is National Meatball Day! With the way I love meatballs, this food holiday is deserving of a celebration. A Meatball Palooza if you will. I have so many meatball recipes to share (and several I’ve yet to create) that we’ll need days to properly honor those perfectly packaged bundles of love. I shall call this celebration March Meatball Madness and share a meatball recipe every day for the remainder of the month.

I received a nice variety of responses, which included some of my favorite soups like Broccoli Cheddar and Italian Wedding and others that I had yet to recreate at home.

Beef Stroganoff {Oh How I Love The Leftovers}
This Beef Stroganoff recipe could be made with any leftover steak or nice tender beef strips and your favorite kind of mushrooms. I am completely serious when I say that I might love leftovers more than the original serving. I realize there are some exceptions, but for the most part I’m a leftovers kind of girl.

Mushroom Soup {with Cheesy Portobello Crouton}
Here in the sunny south we’ve been experiencing some big weather swings. Cold one day, hot the next. Seems that kind of shift leads you straight into flu and cold season. Yep, that’s right. About 1/3 of my work family is or has been sick. The only thing I could think to do was make soup. Mushroom Soup with Cheesy Portobello Croutons hit the spot.

One Pot Homemade Beefaroni
Perhaps the dish I remember most from my childhood is Beefaroni. Not the canned type, but Homemade Beefaroni, that I think we had every week. It’s affordable, easy to prepare, family friendly, and so delicious. For that reason I consider this a comfort food recipe.
