One-Skillet Corned Beef Hash
This canned corned beef hash is a hearty, quick-fix skillet meal. It's great with spinach on the side and marvelous with fried eggs.
Spicy Roast Beef Sliders
Sloppy, melty goodness. Usually I make these roast beef sliders without the flour to thicken the broth into a gravy, so you can absolutely do it without the flour and just strain the meat before putting on the sliders and then use the sauce like an au jus to dip in on the side, but I preferred these with the meaty gravy. Reminded me of a grown up Sloppy Joe. Yum!
Roasted Beet Salad
This roasted beet salad with balsamic vinegar dressing is tasty on its own and makes the perfect addition to any plain green salad.
