"What's for Dinner, Mom?"


Yes, it's that age-old question I hear every day around 3 p.m. Sometimes it's even the day before. The kid loves to know in advance what the next meal is going to be, I guess so he can make other plans if need be.

Tonight's fare is quasi-leftovers. The hub made this wonderful roast beef Sunday (he is the chef on most Sundays) and we had quite a bit of meat left over. Since all the boys love roast beef hash, guess what we're having for dinner? You got it. Don't you love these simple foods that soothe the soul? Hey, anything cooked in one pot is a no-brainer for me.

Just dice the onion and garlic and saute in a little olive oil.

Dice potatoes into bite-size cubes and add after onions are opaque.

Cover and cook until potatoes are soft, then remove lid to brown.

Cube beef and add. Brown well.

Season to taste, and voila, dinner is served. Good with a little bread and a side salad. How easy is that?

And dessert? A slice of that wonderful sponge cake from last night, heated in the microwave for a second or two. Yum. Belly full.
