Inexpensive veal shanks become a succulent meal in the slow cooker. Even if you aren't an anchovy lover, don't omit the anchovy paste--it adds immeasurably to the flavor. Use the remaining broth mixture in soups and stews.
This marinade is great for beef or chicken. The Worcestershire sauce and Italian-style dressing give the marinade a zing, while the garlic pepper seasoning and barbeque sauce give it that barbeque flavor. The longer the beef or chicken sits in the marinade, the better it will taste.
A wonderful dish to make at home and it tastes like take-out. Beef strips are quickly marinated and sauteed then with broccoli and mushrooms in a rich sauce.
'When I'm pressed for time, I find this take-along casserole is easy to fix,' writes Pat Waymire, Yellow Springs, Ohio. 'The crouton-topped combination is not only attractive but tasty, too.'
My granddaughters just love this chicken dish. I try to make it every time they come to visit. Lucky for me, it goes together quick as a wink in the microwave.--Miriam Christophel, Battle Creek, Michigan
