Clean Banana Oat Cookies
These healthy banana-oatmeal cookies are flour free, sugar free, and naturally sweetened with bananas. You can have great cookies for breakfast or any time of the day without guilt. You can grind the oats into flour if you prefer. A little bonus for me was that my 11-year-old brother loved these, even after they had been in the refrigerator!
Slow Cooker Venison Sloppy Joes
This recipe for venison Sloppy Joes comes from my friend who is a guide in Alaska. It's excellent for sandwiches on rolls with sharp Cheddar cheese. Yum yum! It's slow-cooked in a slow cooker so even the toughest of roasts or stew meats will work; eventually the meat just falls apart! It's also good served over hot cooked rice.
Rigatoni alla Genovese
I have no idea why the amazingly flavorful "salsa genovese" (Genoa-style pasta sauce) with meat isn't way more popular than it is. It's quite simply one of the best pasta sauces you'll ever taste, thanks to a very slow cooking process and massive amounts of onions.
