Hmmm....
I made crock pot salsa chicken this week in the skillet like I usually do. I found that it I start with frozen chicken breasts, and if I use the pan with the tight lid, and if I start it at the same time as I start the rice....it is all done at the same time, and delicious as usual.

Well, while I was adding the sour cream, I was thinking that there must be a WW recipe for beef stroganoff somewhere, and that I sure would like some beef stroganoff, and I was thinking that I would have to investigate and find it. Funny how I think about a future meal while I am making the perfectly good current meal.

And what do you know? Cybergranny, you read my mind! I am going to try your recipe this week!

Thanks a bunch.

Cybergranny - How do youeer come up with these recipes? You must spend a lot of time on them. All I can say is thanks.

My DH is going to flip out over this one. He just loves steak. Because of his cholesterol problem(he takes one of the statins, and after a long time, it is now finally way below 200), we don't often have steak. I save it for really special recipes.

Well - this is one of those special steak recipes. If you were here my DH would give you a big hug.

With much appreciation and thanks - Dawna

P.S. When I assemble all the ingreds. and make it, I will come back and tell you how we all loved it. smile.gif :cool: :D ;)

Cybergranny--Thanks so much for all the great recipes you've posted. You've made it possible for me to really perk up meals that would otherwise be quite dull! Everyone in the family will love this meal. You're a lifesaver! Keep posting and we'll keep cookin'! ;)

[cybergranny]

Thank you all so much! As long as you are willing to try, I will keep posting recipes.
Dawna, a little secret, I am working on a family cookbook and because I am on WW now, my focus for months has been LF, low sodium, really good recipes that are close to the real thing. So, that is how I do it. I test all of the recipes before posting them and then use the feedback from everybody here to decide if the recipe should go in the book. It is going to be a hugh book before I am finished because I am having so much fun! LOL! :D

Hi Barbara - I too have a family cookbook I am working on. I have been adding to it for several years now. Someday, I will give it to my son. Every time I make something good, he says "make sure you put it in the book". My book doesn't have a lot of ww recipes in it because I live in a house of very thin people. They enjoy eating things I can only take a whiff of now. That is why I am always so recipe hungry. I like to find recipes that fit the bill for everyone.

Does your family know about your cookbook? or is it a surprise?

Dawna

[cybergranny]

Yes, they know and are always having me email certain recipes so they can use them now.

All the aunts and uncles and cousins want a copy when I get done. The kids say I have to publish it. I think that is a large project. I just do the recipes.

My family is mostly thin people too but I add adjustment on the WW recipes for those awful skinny people! I will be one of them before long!
