Chili-Cheeseburgers

Hearty Meal and Oh So Good!

Fry 2 or 3 big hamburgers (drain fat) After meat is cooked: Open a can of Hormel Hot Chili with Beans and add to pan - heat thoroughly. Place burgers on plate, put slice(s) of cheese on top and cover with chili. Top with diced onions and tomatoes. This is eaten with a fork - way too messy to put on a bun or bread.

Elegant Chicken and Rice

Good for a Candlelight Dinner, So the Dust Doesn't Show

In an electric fry pan, melt the margarine and sprinkle the dry salad dressing in the margarine. Brown the chicken pieces in the seasoned margarine. In a separate bowl mix the soup, juice, and cream cheese. Pour liquid mixture over the chicken and simmer in pan for 1 hour. To serve make rice and place chicken pieces on rice. Sauce can be thickened to a gravy consistency or served as is. This recipe freezes up well and can just be heated and poured on fresh rice.

Oh So Easy Bar-B-Que

They'll Keep Coming Back For More 'N' More!

Trim all the fat from the meat and place in crock pot with 1/2 cup water and all seasonings (saving the Bar-B-Q Sauce for later). Cook approx. 6 hours on high, even overnight with tougher cuts of meat. When the meat just crumbles it is done just right! Drain all liquid from the meat, and crumble the meat up. Then add the Bar-B-Q sauce and cook on low at least 2 more hours. Serve on buns. Reheats in microwave just fine!!
