Dreary Day French Onion Soup Alterations + Au jus and Roast Beef and Provolone Cheese on French Bread and Homemade Bread Croutons from Italian Bread.
Revised the French onion soup it was a recipe I made many years ago when first venturing out onto my own things and it was good I just needed to spruce it up a little bit! And here it is! Read all the way through to get the full recipes!
Homemade Bread Croutons
1 small loaf Italian Bread
3 teaspoons all-purpose seasoning
2 tablespoons of butter
1/8 cup of olive oil
Cut the Italian Bread into 1 inch squares and put into a large mixing bowl. Melt the olive oil and butter together. Pour evenly over the bread and sprinkle 1 teaspoon at a time of the all-purpose seasoning, tossing the bread after each teaspoon to get an even coat. Spread out in a large roasting pan or baking dish and toast it for 7 minutes at 400* Remove from heat and set aside to use.
Simple steak dinner
Valentines Dinner
Was all about the simply delicious. Used Filet Mignion, which I found at Kroger for 3.99 each the Organic Baby Carrots for 1.34 and the Leafy Green Organic Lettuce for 2.49, averaged us about 7 bucks a meal after taxes, with lettuce left over for lunch.
This was very simple
2 Filet Mignion wrapped in bacon
Olive oil, to drissle
salt and pepper to taste (one is more pepper crusted for my husbands liking)
baby carrots, as many as you want, with stems cut
1 bunch of leafy greens
Place in a baking dish and drissle olive oil all over the carrots and steak. Next sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast at 400 for 20 min, then broil for 10-15. Serve with the lettuce and your favorite dressing.

Yogurt Parfait
Yogurt "Parfait"
1 pkg of Nature Valley Granola bar, smashed
1 banana
1 apple
1 orange
1 Tablespoon of Blackberry Marion Berry Preserves
1/2 cup yogurt
* You can add any fruits that you want to this, add more preserves in more layers as well
Cut up the fruits into smaller than bite size. Layer small bits at a time. In the photo there aren't a lot of layers but thats just because my husband wasn't that hungry. The 1 tablespoon of preserves is for one layer if you want more than that add some more. Enjoy!~

Peanut Butter Cookies (flourless)
1 cup peanut butter
1 egg
1 cup sugar
Combine above ingredients.Spoon out with a small ice cream scooper and place on a cookie sheet 1 inch apart. Bake @ 350 for 8-11 minutes or until the edges look a little darker brown, then I like to press the middle with a fork and bake another 2-3 minutes. These are very flaky and very buttery. DO NOT leave them on the cookie sheet for more than 1-2 minutes, or they will stick and be a pain, but they will also be a pain if you don't let them rest at least a minute. ENJOY FOODIES!
