Crazy cooks are the best cooks 

 

Now that the world stuck inside during this pandemic and everyone has been sending us messages about how bored they are not jumping, I thought it would be a great idea to share a family recipe. Not only is it tasty but it will feed a family of five for under $20 with leftovers. So, get on your apron and get ready to have some fun. If you do attempt to make this dish please share some photos with us. Have fun!

With all of us trying to save money during this strange time and also cooking with canned food, I thought this recipe is perfect. You can doctor it to your liking with different ingredients. All you really have to stick to is the base.

This also needs to be served over something, I generally use rice.

If you have any questions, comments and or concerns please feel free to reach out and I will be sure to answer as soon as I can..

7 Allow mix to simmer for at least 20 min (*if you need to add more water that’s ok / just remember we need it to reduce to around ¼ in the pan, we are not making soup.) * you can also add any other veggies you like at this point for this weeks i used caned mixed veggies

8 Once reduced, add the cream of mushroom to the meat and mix well. (* your need to make this smooth like silk)
