Sloppy Joe Sweet Potato Fries
Everyone needs a classic Sloppy Joe recipe in their repertoire, especially if you have kids at the table. Serve over Sweet Potato Fries as recommended or hamburger buns and baked potatoes work well too. The cornstarch on the Sweet Potato Fries gives them a crispy coating without deep frying.

This Lasagna Soup recipe is a spin-off of a classic! It’s packed with all of the best lasagna flavours, but in a one-pot soup. This warming, hearty soup is packed with Lean Ground Beef, veggies and three types of cheese.
Beef Tenderloin Sandwich
Make the most of any leftover tenderloin the next day in a simple roast beef sandwich. Tender baby arugula dressed with fresh lemon juice and olive oil, and Dijon mustard as the spread for the toast are a good match for tasty beef tenderloin. A fried egg crowns each sandwich and helps to hold it all together!
Pressure Cooker Weeknight Mongolian Beef
Mongolian Beef is actually a dish from Taiwan and is often served in Canadian-style Chinese restaurants. Usually made with Flank Steak, this recipe with Beef Rib Finger Meat makes a wonderful and flavourful substitute. Cooking the beef in a pressure cooker means this braise cooks in a fraction of the time. You could also serve this saucy beef over rice noodles, cellophane noodles or ramen noodles instead of rice.
Pressure Cooker Weeknight Beef Stew with Mixed Mushrooms
The electric pressure cooker with multi functions allows this comforting one-pot braised stew to be ready in about an hour and, therefore, a delicious dinner solution even on weeknights. Serve stew with prepared horseradish for a tasty accompaniment and crusty bread for sopping up the sauce.
Stir-fried Beef and Gai Lan (Chinese Broccoli)
This stir-fry dish of beef and greens was served often at my childhood family dinner table, using our homegrown bounty of fresh picked gai lan, also known as Chinese broccoli. My daily job was to clean the garden vegetables for our meals, a job I disliked immensely since there were plenty of caterpillars and insects to pick out. That aside, when my mom would start cooking, I really enjoyed the scent of garlic, ginger and beef being fried and I couldn’t wait to eat! The method of slicing the beef steak thinly across the grain and marinating it ensures that each bite is quick-cooking, juicy and flavorful. The tender baby gai lan is first blanched, then added at the end of cooking for a quick reheat with the beef and savoury sauce. Be sure to have all the ingredients measured and ready to go as this dish cooks quickly. Serve with hot cooked rice.
Beef and Tomato Stir-Fry
Growing up, our family had a very large garden filled with tomatoes and many other vegetables. One of the ways we’d enjoy eating the flavorful juicy tomatoes would in this homestyle beef and tomato dish. Marinating the beef with a cornstarch mixture ensures that the meat will be tender and juicy after cooking. My mom would usually slice the fresh ginger into very thin matchsticks, however, the ginger in this recipe has been left in large slices to make it easier to spot them after cooking and set aside, if desired. Be sure to stir-fry the tomatoes gently so they still retain some of their shape and texture. Serve with hot cooked rice.
Flank Steak Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Spicy Mayo
My mother often cooked us grilled cheese for quick dinners and I always loved it. We weren't very wealthy so we rarely had prime cuts of beef to go in our meals. I still remember that she served us canned asparagus to accompany this dish! To honour my childhood dinners, I offer you a grilled cheese that is out of the ordinary! This is a hearty sandwich but even my girlfriend who doesn’t usually each much thinks it’s perfect.
Mini Meatball and Potato Frittata (Frittata di Polpettine e Patate)
My grandmother always had something in the fridge to make a bite to eat. She could make everything delicious in a frittata. If you have leftover meatballs use those instead of making the mini meatballs in this recipe. Cooking everything in the skillet makes for easy clean up and the result makes for happy bellies.
