Bourbon Marinated Flank Steak
Flank steak is one of our favorite meats to grill. This one is marinated in bourbon. It was a huge success and we will be adding this to our repertoire. The other wonderful marinade is my brother-in-law, Russell's Flank Steak, which is also a big crowd pleaser.

Sour Cream Noodle Bake
My friend, Chris, dropped this casserole off for me with some of her home grown tomatoes and peppers. It couldn't have come at a better time. We are putting in a new kitchen and everything was torn out. Also, I was having my last chemo treatment! Yay!

Johnny Marzetti Casserole
I love recipes with a story. I have to say I have never heard of this casserole recipe. The dish originated in Columbus, Ohio, at Marzetti's, an Italian restaurant established in 1896 on Broad St. by an Italian immigrant named Teresa Marzetti. One of the dishes Marzetti offered her customers was a baked casserole of ground beef, cheddar cheese, tomato sauce, and noodles that she named for her brother-in-law Johnny. It was very popular during WWII. The original restaurant closed in 1942, but a second location, opened in 1919 remained in operation until Teresa Marzetti died in 1972. She was also popular for her salad dressings, which you can still buy today. This recipe is very similar to Sour Cream Noodle Bake that I posted recently, minus the sour cream.

Marinade for Kabobs
This Marinade for Kabobs is very versatile. You can also use it for chicken or pork. Sometimes, I buy meat and put it in a ziplock bag and freeze it with the marinade. This makes it easy on the day you grill it. As it thaws it continues to marinate. I marinated these beef kabobs for 24 hours. The longer the better. They were tender and delicious.

Crispy Beef & Pickle Tacos
These Crispy Beef & Pickle Tacos were created by Steve Arroyo, when he owned a restaurant called Malo in Los Angeles, CA. He opened up Escuela Taqueria in Pasadena, where I was first introduced to these absolutely delicious tacos, that are stuffed with crispy fried beef, cheddar cheese and dill pickle chips. It's like a burger in a taco shell!
