Re: What do you make that your family comes running for? Or that they always ask you for?

[ Edited ]

My family's favorites include:  Homemade pizza, grilled hamburgers, Mexican (ground beef) meat and fixings for tacos & nachos, lasagna, chicken fried steak & mashed potatoes, baked ham and "party" mashed potatoes.  Their favorite desserts include: frosted sugar cookies, monster bars, brownies, cheesecake and apple crisp.  I bake an assortment of bundt cakes, but they usually pick chocolate for a birthday cake!

My family eats whatever I make, simply because they are used to home cooked meals on a plate.   Simple or fancy, it doesn't matter, my family prefers to eat whatever I cook in our kitchen.

it happened just two weeks ago and we had a family gathering around the dinner table. it was a COLD day so it was a good time to make it. i made A  LOT because everyone wanted to take home leftovers also. it was around 6 pounds plus of pot roast!

 

pot roast, seared, and then cooked low and slow in a black speckled roasting pan. i also added baby potatoes, celery, chunks of onion, roasted garlic, and carrots in a rich brown gravy. i made a salad as a side dish and served with croissants from sams club.


My mom made a pot roast in that same pan and it was sooo good, I can never make it as good!

My family loves my tacos for sure that is what i am famous for.  I fry the corn tortillas and shape them into a hard shell then sprinkle with parmesan cheese, that is part of it and all the fixings of course.

It's just my DD and me and we both RUN when I do those tiny lamb chops in the airfryer and the risotto I make in my pressure cooker---OMG--those things are so yummy. Also, I make bbq pork spare ribs using my moms recipe, in my crock pot----so good!!!!  


Can you share your recipe for the Risotto?  Your right risotto is wonderfully easy in the air fryer but I would love your recipe.

Chicken enchiladas or Italian beef on rolls.

Nothing like chicken noodle soup on a cold day
