The page is falling out of the book now, but the recipe's still as good as it was then. SPECIAL NOTE: Grandpa wasn’t a veggie eater, but mushrooms are good in this, too. Just add them when you add the water and chopped onion. Cheese Steak 2 lb. 1/2" thick round steak 1/4 c. all-purpose flour 1/2 t. salt 1/4 t. garlic salt 1 c. water 1/4 c. chopped onion 1/2 c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese 2 T. chopped parsley (optional) Cut round steak in 6 to 8 pieces; pound to 1/4". Combine flour, salt, and garlic salt. Dredge meat in mixture. Brown slowly in 3 T. hot fat. Add water and chopped onion. Cover; simmer 1 hour or until tender. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and chopped parsley. Cover; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese melts. Makes 6 to 8 servings. _________________ "Ain't no man can avoid being born average, but there ain't no man got to be common." ~ Baseball Hall-of-Famer Leroy "Satchel" Paige Back to top Lori Famous, and Good-Looking Too Joined: 19 Feb 2007 Posts: 3372 Location: Wisconsin Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2008 9:47 pm    Post subject: That sounds absolutely delicious.

Have you seen any calories listed? Well, maybe just one or two, but all the rest of them? No calories; no carbs. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. And, yes, I believe it was Tru that posted that wonderful soft cornbread recipe. _________________ "Ain't no man can avoid being born average, but there ain't no man got to be common." ~ Baseball Hall-of-Famer Leroy "Satchel" Paige Back to top Sydney2 Unrepentant FAMEWHORE Joined: 19 Feb 2007 Posts: 554 Location: Toronto, Canada Posted: Thu Jan 10, 2008 9:59 am    Post subject: Oh this would be a good one to try.

I like to think of it as well-loved. I probably got mine about the same time you got yours; 1969 woulda been about right. _________________ "Ain't no man can avoid being born average, but there ain't no man got to be common." ~ Baseball Hall-of-Famer Leroy "Satchel" Paige Back to top Sydney2 Unrepentant FAMEWHORE Joined: 19 Feb 2007 Posts: 554 Location: Toronto, Canada Posted: Fri Jan 11, 2008 8:49 am    Post subject: inkydinkydoo wrote: Yeah, mine's like that, too, Nancy.

I have this cookbook as well, of course mine is a much newer edition but I really enjoy it. It has everything in it. Mine doesn't have this recipe in it so thanks for sharing this Inky.

I never thought to look and see if it's there. I just always reach for "old reliable." Do you know how many cookbooks I've collected over the years? I'd be ashamed to tell you. _________________ "Ain't no man can avoid being born average, but there ain't no man got to be common." ~ Baseball Hall-of-Famer Leroy "Satchel" Paige Back to top JWChitown Moderator Joined: 19 Feb 2007 Posts: 2609 Location: Chicagoland - Go Olympics 2016! Posted: Fri Jan 11, 2008 11:51 am    Post subject: OK So I have plenty of cookbooks, starting from my grandfather's collection (he was a baker and had recipes for making 24 loaves of bread at a time...thank God for conversion programs today). Many of these I read like books, not because I have a chance to use them often. One of my more recent acquisitions was: Food To Die For: Secrets From Kay Scarpetta's Kitchen by Patricia Cornwell Now that one is a good read! LOL _________________ ..............
