Homemade McChicken

M cChicken sandwich, spicy or regular, has always been a household favorite until McDonalds started adding crap to the recipe. I used to work at McDonalds when I was 16 years old, things have def changed from then to now. Season it how you wish, I just throw a bunch of spices in and call it good! Does not matter what you use.  You Will Need: Ground Chicken Garlic Powder Onion Powder Paprika  Breadcrumbs  Flour Egg Wash Mayo Buns Lettuce Tomato After you form patties, freeze for 1 to 2 hours. Once frozen, dip in flour, egg then bread crumbs and deep fry until golden brown and 165 degrees temp reached inside. 

Swiss Steak {aka Pepper Steak}

Growing up my mother always bought those frozen T.V. dinners and I loved the pepper steak so much. But being an adult and finally understanding what is in my food I took a stand against T.V. dinners and decided to put my love for cooking to use. I found out how to make my favorite meal and how to freeze it like those tiny T.V. dinners! Trust me I have never gone back to them and never will. This is by far one of my favorite meals and I hope ya'll enjoy it too!

You Will Need:
2 lb Grass Fed Organic Top Round Steak
2 Cups Organic Cooked Rice
32 oz. Organic Creamy Tomato Soup
2-4 Organic Bell Peppers 
3 Medium Organic Onions
1 pkg. Organic Mushrooms
1/2-1 Cup Organic All-Purpose Flour (in a medium bowl)
1/4 Cup Organic Olive Oil 
Salt & Pepper


Cut mushrooms 


Cut peppers 


Cut onions- add to pan


Cover meat in flour


Place in a cast iron pan covered with olive oil and cook on medium for roughly 5 to 6 minutes a side- this is to brown the meat only


Be sure to get all the brown out of the pan that is going to thicken the 'sauce'


BEAUTIFUL!


Add your tomato soup, also add water to each can, about 4 tbsp and swish around


My gosh, my husband, Daniel, took an amazing picture


Season and mix


In the oven it goes, cover with foil and cook at 350 degrees for 3-4 hours, if the sauce is not thicken you will need to thicken it with organic corn starch or arrowroot powder


Make your rice


Add the meat, pepper mixture to the rice and mix together 


BAM!! Donnnnneeee!! and so amazingly, heavily yummy!
