Melissa's Meatballs 1 lb of hamburger 1/4 cup of water 1 egg 1 tsp of garlic 1 tsp of basil 1 tsp of dill Mix above ingredients all together and form into meatballs. Fry in olive oil in pan. Put grease dripping in a pan and add some water, warm this up. Mix up about 2 T of flour and 1 cup or so of water and add to the mixture and slowly bring to a boil to form a gravy for over the meatballs. I serve this with a mixture of steamed veggies and some rice or pasta noodles. P.S. Adrienne gave me the idea of baking chicken wings in the oven on tinfoil until crispy and then making fried rice with veggies. We really like this too. I eat that a lot too. We also do a lot of fish (Talapia) on the grill with the salad dressing mixture that we are allowed over it. It is very very good fish. Also turkey burgers we grill and then I have them leftover for lunch. I may gross you out but Matia said that oysters are fine and I fry them in egg and flour as a snack. I love fried oysters. They are expensive but hey you need to eat something and when there is so much that we can't have.
Melissa's Kabobs Place veggies on a stick and brush with butter and olive oil mixture and grill. We used zucchini, broccoli, cauliflower, red, orange and yellow sweet peppers, yellow squash. You could also add meat like beef or chicken too. Raw cut up potatoes brushed with butter and olive oil and grilled are very good too!
Chris's Beef Pot Pie with Flaky Crust Filling: Beef chuck, Yellow squash, green beans, zucchini and a small amount of new red potatoes. I cut the chuck roast into small chunks and dust with a little flour. Sauté with a little vegetable oil till lightly brown, but not cooked through. Put the beef in a crock pot with a bay leaf, basil, two cloves of garlic. Cover the beef with water (about four cups) and put the crock pot on low for about four hours. I take the beef from the stock and place in a pie dish and sauté the green beans, yellow squash, and zucchini in a little oil and salt. I make a roux with butter and add the juices from the stock pot (strain), thicken and pour over beef and vegetables. Crust: 2 cups whole wheat flour - unbleached 1/2 cup Butter 1/2 tsp Salt 1/4 cup water Cut the butter/cold into the flour, add salt, water and knead and roll out to circle shape and put over beef and vegetables. Cook at 450 degrees for 30-45 minutes until crust is brown. I think it is a perfect medley of carbs, protein and vegetables. I eat it with a big salad.
Rita's Roast Pork Loin Top Loin Roast, boneless Fresh or dried Basil Fresh Garlic Salt and Pepper Olive Oil meat thermometer Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place roast on broiler pan. Brush with olive oil. Cut small slits all over, just big enough to place a clove of garlic and sprig of basil in. Do this according to taste. ( I use a lot ) If you want, you can sprinkle dried basil on the roast instead. If you can tolerate Rosemary, it is delicious, also. Rosemary is very pungent, so don't try it unless Matia says it's ok for you. Sprinkle roast all over with salt and pepper. Place thermometer in center of roast. Bake uncovered, until thermometer reaches 170 degrees. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
Rita's Beef Stir Fry Round steak, cut in thin strips Oil Salt, garlic powder and pepper to taste (pepper if tolerated) Sliced bell peppers and onions (onions if tolerated) 1 cup water or broth Sprinkle meat with spices.

Add a little more liquid if you need to and make a thin gravy, using whatever kind of flour you can have. Sauté the bell peppers and onion in a little oil and add to the meat. Serve over rice or pasta.

Adrienne's Stuffed Chicken Take chicken breast and slice in half. Roll chopped green pepper, onion, and/or whatever veggies you like in the chicken. Add a 1/2 slice of whatever cheese you are allowed. Add some breadcrumbs to keep the cheese from oozing out. I used spelt and just chopped it up into tiny crumbs and it worked pretty well. Roll up and use toothpicks to hold it together. Put salt, garlic or whatever spices you're allowed and pop in the oven until baked.

Remove patties and set aside. Combine 3-4 tablespoons of flour in either water or any left over beef broth. Add to drippings (on low heat) and stir until thickened for gravy.

Simmer in the the skillet for maybe another 1/2 hour and at the very end, add in just enough flour and water combined to make it a tiny bit thick.
Michelle's Breaded Pork Tenderloins Breadcrumbs; Cut up little squares of bread and toss with melted butter, olive oil and whatever spices you like. I use a little garlic and onion powder, salt, pepper, and basil. Then you spread them out on a cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes or until they are toasted. I use them as croutons on salads or when a recipe calls for bread crumbs, I use a rolling pin and crush the croutons into small particles to bread things with. Another thing I use to bread things is those brown rice puffs. With a rolling pin I crush the rice puffs into tiny pieces. Pound out a pork chop so it's really thin, dunk it in egg, and then these crushed up rice puffs and fry it in canola oil. My husband loves this! He eats on a sandwich, and I just eat it plain but it so good!
Michelle's Beef/Veggie Stew Brown some ground beef in a BIG skillet, and then add chopped up onion, green pepper, celery, cabbage and potatoes (but you could do any veggies you want).

You can freeze leftovers in small batches for lunches or have it for snacks.
