My husband's grandmother came from Germany, so I was inspired to keep the German cooking traditions going in our family. This skillet dinner is one of the dishes she made. --Lucy Bradshaw New Bern, North Carolina
This simple, fresh pasta dish makes a great light lunch or supper, especially when the freshest tomatoes and herbs are in season. Just toss hot cooked pasta in a light vinegar and oil dressing with the tomatoes, and serve with freshly shredded Parmesan.
Ground beef, onion, green pepper, and ketchup are seasoned with garlic powder and sweetened with brown sugar to make this hearty meat filling. Serve on hamburger buns.
This is a wonderful way to prepare root vegetables. This savory combination of potatoes, rutabagas, carrots, parsnips and sweet potatoes keeps people going back for seconds!
