Hi all!

I am sure all you mothers out there will agree,during the day we get asked a ton of annoying or repetative questions,my most hated being the constant I am hungry, whats for dinner. So to help myself and my family with this,I am starting a seperate blog where I will post my menu and recipes 2 weeks at a time. (our pay period) It will be mostly dinners since the older kids eat both breakfast and lunch at school, unless they are home for a break or on the weekend. I will add those days in also. Vernon did shopping without me this pay check so we shall see how well I can do with what he came home with. I will be going through my pantry, freezer, and fridge in the morning after I take the kids to school. Until then I will post what we had tonight for dinner. Also, if there are ANY of you who read this and want to add you recipes, menus, ECT, I beg you to please leave me a comment and I will add you the MORE the Merrier. And I am ALWAYS looking for new yummy recipes! So if you think this is something you would enjoy or even just to share the occasional recipe! Please do it!

Dinner Tonight- Beef and Rice Soup

Ingredients

1 1/2lbs Beef (what ever is on sale,roast,steak, stew meat)
1 to 2Tbs Oil (enough to coat the pan)
8 cups water
8 beef bullion cubes
3/4 cup brown rice (white can also be used)
1 can French cut Green beans
1 can Corn
your favorite seasoning to taste

Put enough oil in bottom of pan to coat the bottom. Let the oil get nice and warm. Add your cubed up beef chunks. When your meat is nice and brown add in the water, bullion, and rice. When the rice is almost done, drain the liquid from the veggies and add them in. Season to taste. Enjoy!
