I am on such a cooking kick lately. I purchased 6 cookbooks with my Barnes and Nobles gift card from Mothers Day, and I wish I had the time (and financing!) to make all the recipes I want to. The cookbooks I'm the most excited about are :
and The Complete Cookbook: Asian. Tasty Recipes for Every Day. (I couldn't find a good picture of the cover on the internet). Louis is also really excited for my Semi-homemade by Sandra Lee cookbook that hasn't arrived yet. The recipe I'm making tonight didn't come from my slow cooker cook book but from the back of the Lipton soup box. I swear, Jeremiah better hurry up and stop his baby food preference SOON and start eating more normal food because I can't wait for him to finally enjoy my food rather than just push it away!
In other news, this month is chock full of birthdays. This weekend we have three parties to go to- Jeremiah's cousin Adrian's 2nd birthday tomorrow (Louis's cousin Victor is Adrian's daddy), my aunt Sophie (Grandma's sister)'s 85th birthday party, and Sunday my cousin Chase (my cousin Kelly's son)s' 4th birthday. Every other weekend between now and the beginning of July is filled with at least one other birthday party. Busy- and expensive! That's why I love shopping at Target!!
Anyway, here's the recipe for the beef stroganoff in case you're interested. I've never made a beef stroganoff before so I'm really excited to see how it turns out! Tune in for more great recipes as I make them!
1/4 cup all purpose flour
10 oz sliced mushrooms (we're substituting for crinkle cut carrots since Louis hates mushrooms)
1 envelope Lipton Secret Recipe Beefy Onion Soup Mix
1/2 tsp dried thyme leaves, crushed
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
8 oz sour cream
1. In your slow cooker, toss beef with flour. Stir in remaining ingredients except sour cream. Cook covered on LOW 8-10 hrs or on HIGH 4-6 hrs until meat is tender
2. Stir in sour cream. Serve, if desired, over hot cooked egg noodles

My hubby hates mushrooms, too, which I can't understand for the life of me. They're yummy! But carrots sound like a fun substitution. Especially since they won't get mushy even after a long time in the crock pot like broccoli or bell peppers might.
Long live cookbooks!
