These have become pretty fun for us.

Use heat safe soup bowls.
thinly sliced beef-your choice, we used top sirlion
2TBSP sauce- your choice, I put soya sauce, water, hoisin, oyster sauce, chilis, sesame seeds & green onions.
Top with vegetables-your choice, I used broccoli, broccoli stems & water chestnuts
Top that with beat eggs 2 per bowl and green onions

Mix meat with sauce on bottom of bowl. I didn’t do anything nice to this meat but you can place it nicer in the bowl on the bottom, which will result in looking nice when it’s flipped out. Beat eggs. Prep rest of Vegetables

I like to mold my rice too. Makes it look pretty. Gently tilt bowl over rice and flip out.
We like this bamboo steamer

I like to add all the cut veggies & spices to a bowl.

Mix well.

Then divide all your cans of tomato stuff into each pot. In summer time when tomatoes are a dime a dozen. We use way less canned tomato stuff and make from scratch!

We got supper for four made out of this, 5 spaghetti sauce meals for family of 4 (roughly 5cups in each large freezer bag) for freezer and I also made up 8 lunch containers!

One thing I can’t stand is soggy nachos!! They aren’t suppose to be soggy. If your using olives they have to be squeezed really well of their water. Tomatoes are excellent on nachos but don’t cook them on the nachos. Throw some optop when serving! They will make the chip soggy fast. I have to make a big batch of nachos cause my family loves them. I do 3 layers. Everything on each layer. Bake in a preheated oven 425F for about 10minutes. We serve sour cream and salsa on the side. Once in a while will have some guacamole too.
I bake these in individual cast iron skillets so everyone gets to make/have their own nachos.

I’ve been wanting meatloaf lately. Haven’t made it in many months. Decided today was the day. Took the kids out skating for a few hours this afternoon. I’m pretty wiped. Wanted something easier tonight yet hearty.
1CUP crushed cornflakes
1 large onion, cut
2 lb ground beef
2 eggs
3 garlic cloves, minced
1TSP Worcestershire Sauce
1/4CUP ketchup
1TSP dried parsley
1TSP dried thyme
1TSP each black pepper & salt

Mix all together. Very well. Instead of making a loaf I wanted to use my oyster cast iron pan. I sure love this pan! I made a flattened circle with meat at bottom of bowl and decided into 12 pieces so they would be all pretty even.

I pat balls in my hands and formed them into like a football shape. Squeezed ketchup on-top.
Mini Meatloaves » RecipeCollage.com » July 4, 2024
I served with carrots & garlic chili mashed
Love my cast iron oyster pan! We use it for a variety of things

Thinly sliced beef, onions, & garlic.
Lots of broccoli cut.
Bought a whole case of broccoli today. Been processing it all day. I used a lot of broccoli in this recipe. We made a big batch.
Beef Broccoli » RecipeCollage.com » July 4, 2024
I like to use a little vegetable oil along with some sesame oil. Fry up the meat, onions, garlic, soya sauce, fresh green peppercorns on high heat. For a couple minutes.
Beef Broccoli » RecipeCollage.com » July 4, 2024
Add the broccoli, 1/2-1CUP beef broth depending on how much sauce you like. I thicken this with a cornstarch/water mixture.
