Mrs. Young's Spaghetti Sauce

 This one comes from my friend Kelly.  It's her Mom's famous sauce!

1 lbs ground beef

1 onion, chopped

1 bell pepper, chopped

2 stalks of celery chopped

5 cloves of garlic, minced

1 T basil

1 T oregeno

4 bay leaves

2 T lowry's seasoned salt

1/2 t pepper

2 cans tomato sauce

3 cans diced or whole tomatoes

1 small can tomato paste

*Brown beef, then add all other ingredients.  Cook for 4-5 hours.  Yum!

Bulgur "stir fry"

 There's nothing "stir fry" about it except the taste!

In an instant pot or on the stovetop: cook 2 (or so) cups of bulgur wheat.

In your oven: roast your choice of veggies.  I usually do bell pepper, cauliflower, carrots, and sometimes brussel sprouts

In a mason jar: mix sauce:

  • 1 cup of low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 T sesame oil
  • 1 T brown sugar or honey
  • 1 T minced ginger
  • 1 t minced garlic
  • 1/4 c seasoned rice vinegar

In a frying pan: fry up one block of tofu, then add the sauce.  Heat until the sauce is thickened. 

 Combine bulger, veggies, and tofu sauce in a large bowl.  Stir and serve!
