By Request: pf changs mongolian beef

After I made the lettuce wraps from PF Changs... I had a few requests for this mongolian beef recipe.

It was awesome... one of my new favorite recipes, AND, I had everything the recipe called for... SCORE! On a side note, I get my flank steak from Winco. It is a great price and really good quality meat. I used to get it from Costco, which is a little more expensive, but not much.

strawberry freezer jam

Strawberries were 75 cents a piece last week. I was all out of jelly, so one thing led to another... This recipe is super easy and it turns out great... no extra trips to the store for pectin necessary. Freezer Jam 4 cups strawberries hulled and cut in fourths 2 cups sugar 2 tbsp lemon juice Put strawberries and sugar in pan and cook them stirring often until they reach a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and simmer until reduced in half. The longer you cook the strawberries the thicker your jam. When finished thickening , add in lemon juice to the mix. Pour jam into ball freezer jars. Chill overnight in the fridge, then move to freezer for storage. This blog is linked to: Two For Tuesdays Twister Tuesday
