How nice of you :D
How about a good meatloaf and mashed potatoes?
Meatloaf is easy ... 1 - 1 1/12 lb ground beef, 1 egg, 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, a dash of worchestershire sauce. Mix all together, place in a loaf pan. Pour ketchup on top, or 1/2 can tomato soup. Cook at 350 for 1 hour.
While that's cooking, peel potatoes(1-2 per person). Boil potatoes in water in saucepan until tender when you poke a fork in them. When tender, drain, add about 1/4 cup butter (give or take), 1/4 cup milk (give or take) and mash.
Serve with a veggie or salad or whatever and voila - - everyone's happy!
Enjoy and good for you. Your family needs to be proud of you!!Help with easy to make but filling recipes?
