Cover With Tin Foil(keeps cheese from burning) Bake in over on 350 for 1 hour.Its a Meal in it self i never serve a side with it but thats up to you.
Vance's Easy Awesome Pork.
1 or 2 Packages Pork, Any type works,ribs,chops,tenderloin Pick your fav cut of pork.

Goulash
2 Lbs Ground meat(i use beef) 1 box Elbow Pasta(or any Pasta you have on hand i have made with Spaghetti) 2 Large Cans Tomato Juice 2 cups Brown Sugar Salt and pepper to taste

Vance's Fry ya mouth chili(won me a blue ribbon at the county fair in high school) Once the judges stopped crying from how spicy it was that is lol I love HOT SPICY food!
Warning VERY VERY HOT AND SPICY!
2 lbs Ground Beef(again any ground meat will work) 3 cans Tomato Juice
2 cans Kidney Beans 4 tablespoons Chili Powder 2 heaping tablespoons Cheyenne pepper 10 jalapeno peppers 3 Habanaro Peppers 4 large Banana peppers 1/4 cup Tabasco Sauce(or other pepper sauce) 1 Large Sweet Onion 2 cans Diced Tomato's 1/2 cup Brown Sugar(optional if you like sweeter chili add it)

Make sure to remove papery skin from onion lol),Chili Powder, Add Enough tomato Juice to cover and Almost Fill blender.

In a Large Pot Combine Meat,Remaining tomato Juice from 2 cans(keep one back), Liquid from blender,Kidney beans,Diced tomatoes, and brown sugar (If using it)
This next part is VERY VERY VERY important. So follow instructions here Very carefully!!! Bring to a Boil for 3 mins ONLY then turn down to Between Medium and low, and Slow Simmer covered for 4 to 5 hours Stirring every 10 to 15 mins(add Tomato juice from reserved can to replace evaporation) its very important to keep temp low enough that it doesn't burn. IMHO fast chili is Bad Chili!!!!

This is a fun idea for a thread!
I'm going to try that rib recipe soon! I have ribs in the freezer that i have no idea how to cook, and this looks easy.
Here's my fave thing to do with tomatoes:
I use the beefsteak tomatoes I grow myself(well, I didn't this year)- they are very meaty and sweet tasting- you'd think I put sugar on them.
Slice them into thick slaps, brush some bsalmic vinagrette on with a BBQ or basting brush(I used bsalmic vinagrette salad dressing on mine), sprinkle some fresh thyme on to taste, and a bit of parmesan cheese. Put in the broiler JUST long enough to warm them up.
Tastes like something you'd get in a restaurant.
My brother suggested this for sage(I have beautiful sage in my garden, huge leaves):
wash the leaves lightly in whipped egg(with just a touch of water), dip in bread crumbs, fry in olive oil. He said it's like eating sage french fries. I haven't tried it yet- waiting for the sage to come back from when I cut it all for him.

Sounds good! yes all my recipes are insanely easy! I can cook the fancy stuff i took home ec. 1,2,3,4 and Creative Cooking 1 and 2 in High School.And i learned long ago it doesn't have to be fancy to taste AWESOME! My chili came about because i had a friend who was half Mexican and Said i couldn't make anything Hot enough to phase him. After 3 bites he said with tears running down his face and i Quote " All right you win now get me the D**N milk." It didn't phase me, i love spicy!

I dated a Texan for a while who made wonderful chili, but he'd have to make a separate batch for my sissy-self. He also was horrified at the suggestion of putting beans in chili.
I'm a big one for using the herbs I grow in my cooking. I use some right out of the garden, some I dry(some I use either way). Some herbs I bought because they smelled marvelous, or were on clearance-- then I looked up ways to cook with them.

- 30 butter crackers, crushed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 2 tablespoons flaked coconut
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

There is something to be said for knowing someone has tried it and it's good! This one is one I need to try too.

Possum Pie
I thought one of the ingredients was going to be possum! I was going to send it to my Dad. He'll eat anything. I think that's why his nickname is Possum. If there is something more gross that possums do, I don't want to know about it.
