I’m OBSESSED with this soup! This is an old school Czech recipe. You will love it! If you cook for kids they will gobble this up!

Frankfurter & Potato Goulash

1 box of bread dumplings
1 stick of butter
1 packgae of good quality hot dogs (6 to 8 links)
4 medium sized russet potatoes
1 medium yellow onion
1 tablespoon of tomato paste
1/4 cup heavy cream
chicken or beef bouillion and about 8 cups of water or 8 cups of chicken or beef broth
Paprika, I used 1 Tablespoon of sweet and 1 Tablespoon of Smoked spicy, you should adjust this to your taste preference
Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder or Onion Powder
Marjoram or Oregano to taste (this is a strong spice so season and adjust)

✔️In a deep sided skillet or soup pot add 3 tablespoons of butter and then finely dice your onions and add to the skillet, cook low and slow until golden brown. Add your tomato paste and saute for a minute or two.

✔️Slice your hot dogs and add to the onions and saute until they are slightly caramelized.

✔️Dice your potatoes very small and add to the skillet, then add all of your dry seasonings, use the paprika and marjorma or oregano sparingly at this point, you can add more after the goulash has cooked. Let the potatoes cook for 15 minutes, then add your bouillion, water or broth. The mixture should be covered by about 1/2 inch.

✔️Bring to a boil reduce to simmer, put the lid on the pot slightly askew so steam can escape. Simmer for 40 minutes.

✔️At the 40 minute mark, I use a potato masher to bread up the potatoes a bit, this isn't a required step. Stir in your heavy cream and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let the goulash rest for a few minutes. Taste and adjust the seaonings.

✔️Toast your bread dumplings in a toaster and then butter, add your goulash to a bowl and place one bread dumpling in each bowl to soak up that delcious broth.

I was always taught that when you don’t know wha

I was always taught that when you don’t know what to do for someone who is going through a tough time, bring them a meal, so that’s what I do. I try to pick things to bring that aren’t in overwhelming amounts, that are easy to prepare and also can be frozen. Yesterday I made my Sloppy Joe’s for some friends. The recipe is so simple. You can halve this recipe but this amount was perfect to bring them food with freeze able leftovers and a meal for us.

3lbs ground beef
2 small yellow onions diced
1 large green pepper diced
2.5 cups (about) ketchup
2 tablespoons of gravy master
1 tablespoon of soy sauce
2 teaspoons of Chinese five spice
2 teaspoons of chili powder
2 teaspoons of cayenne pepper
Salt and Pepper
2 tablespoons of bread and butter pickle juice
1/4 cup minced bread and butter pickles

• brown your onions and peppers in some oil or butter, add your ground beef and brown, then drain if needed
• season with all your dried spices then add your liquids, simmer for 15 minutes
• stir in your minced bread and butter pickles, you can add more if you want

These kinds of meals are perfect for someone who has just had a new baby, dealing with an illness, or has just experienced a death. This is easy to heat up any time of day or night and is a nostalgic comfort food.

When we are Up North the only thing we miss food w

When we are Up North the only thing we miss food wise is Asian, especially sushi. I got creative and surprised Mom with a Northwoods version of a sushi bar. I got frozen ahi tuna and brought it up and was able to find everything else here that I needed.

✔️I fried won tons in veggie oil
✔️thinly sliced up an avocado, green onions, limes and jalapeños
✔️I made a sauce mixing equal parts rice wine vinegar and ponzu with some fresh giner, green onions, jalapeños and cilantro leaves + a little bit of sugar
✔️served some frozen sticky rice I bought

It was a delicious, fun way to eat dinner and cured our sushi cravings. I’ll create a story highlight of the steps.

I grew up eating roast pork and Czech bread dumplings as part of our regular Sunday supper routine. This is such a simple meal that is the ultimate comfort food. A juicy roast pork, delicious pan gravy with mushrooms and soft, steamed bread dumplings soaking up all those meaty juices. We usually serve with red cabbage or sauerkraut but you can also do corn and applesauce. The step by step for making this is saved in my story highlights under “Czech Pork”. What you’ll need :

✔️one 3 to 5 lb pork loin
✔️veggie oil for the roast and for searing
✔️2 cups of sliced mushrooms
✔️2 cups of sliced onions
✔️2 tablespoons of better than bouillon, any flavor
✔️chateau bread dumplings (frozen food section or online)
✔️salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, parsley, caraway seeds, dry mustard, brown sugar
✔️3 tablespoons flour
✔️ water
✔️3 tablespoons butter
✔️about a tablespoon of gravy master

Your family is going to love this and ask for it every Sunday!

Where we live is the “Snowmobile Capital of The

Where we live is the “Snowmobile Capital of The World”. There are hundreds of miles of groomed trails in the Northwoods of Wisconsin up thorough the Western UP of Michigan. This was a huge area for mining and when that industry faded they removed the railroad tracks from the area and created these beautiful snowy trails that wind through hills, rocky cliffs, forests covered in pine and birch trees, lakes, rivers, streams, waterfalls, little wooden bridges crossing over streams and valleys. It’s absolutely beautiful.

To me, it’s also terrifying. I am trying to learn to love this activity, it’s growing on me....slowly. I hate the heavy clothes, the helmet makes me claustrophobic and I usually won’t go over 30 mph. When my step dad was alive we would ride and he would say, “do you think you could at least try to get up to 40mph”? Nope! He would be waiting at every stop sign for me. 😂 Mom and I took the sleds out two winters ago after he passed and got stuck in a rural area and had to be rescued. Embarrassing 😳 I was also shocked at how much that rattled me. I consider myself a tough person. Mom said later that we were overall feeling very vulnerable at that time so it magnified the situation. Very true.

I told her to sell the sleds after that but she said let’s give it one more year.

We went and got new jackets, got the sleds running and have been trying it again this year. I love the culture of going to bars and restaurants along the way, the hand signals you use on the trails, the feeling of being part of a community. This is also what brings a huge amount of revenue to our small towns. Also, nothing can explain the beauty of being deep in the forest.

Yesterday I took the longest ride I’ve ever been on, a whole 30 miles 😂 We rode up to a fun bar in Iron River, MI. I even went 40 to 50 mph a few times. I’m glad to be facing my fears and really learning to enjoy something special I otherwise would have given up on. I’m glad my Mom talked me into this. I’ll report back after today’s ride.
