Cooking may be as much a means of self-expression as any of the arts.

"...booksellers really are a special breed. No one in their right mind would take up clerking in a bookstore for the salary, and no one in his right mind would want to own one - the margin of profit is too small. So, it has to be a love of readers and reading that makes them do it - along with first dibs on the new books." (The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society by Shaffer & Barrows)

Teriyaki Beef Bowls/Sandwiches (#14 and #15)

No pictures because my camera DIED! But, this was delicious. And super simple. The kids LOVE teriyaki, and so do I.

All this required was tossing a beef roast in the crockpot, half a bottle of low sodium teriyaki sauce and a cup of water. I let it cook for 9 hours, and it feel apart. I had made a pot of rice in the CP the day before, so all I had to do was warm it up, top with some beef and carrots and we have DINNER. Everyone had seconds.

There was quite a bit left over since rice and carrots will fill you up. The next day we had the shredded beef on sandwich rolls with some sliced oranges for dinner. Leftover peas to go with it, and dinner was good. :-) The beef also covered lunch for me for 2 whole days. The $9 piece of beef made 12 meals. That is some good math if you ask me. Today I am trying again with a different Au Gratin potato recipe in the Crockpot. Wish me luck... this one should have photos... :-)
