Karen’s Killer Fixin’s: Creamed Dried Beef on Toast or Waffles aka S.O.S.

9 Comments

Cooking

It’s time for Karen’s Killer Fixin’s! Over the years, I’ve filled two 4-inch, 3-ring binders with my own creations as well as recipes my family and friends were willing to share with me. I simply love to cook and want to share that love with my readers. So every Friday, I share one recipe I think you and your family might enjoy. It might be a main course recipe. A cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes my eye and fancy…which today is CREAMED DRIED BEEF ON TOAST OR WAFFLES aka S.O.S.!

How many of us grew up eating creamed dried beef or S.O.S. (Stuff, okay, “That Other Word” On a Shingle) or Creamed Chipped Beef as it was also called? It was a quick and satisfying meal and inexpensive. It was also one of the few times we could justify eating waffles for dinner. No waffles? Toast works, too.

I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!

Karen’s Killer Fixin’s: Spinach Dip for Veggies/Crackers

A cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes my eye and fancy…which today is SPINACH DIP for VEGGIES/CRACKERS!

This is a great recipe for those summer parties and BBQs, although I’ve been known to make this for our neighborhood Christmas parties as well. It’s healthy (if you serve with veggies instead of crackers), easy to make, and delicious. I’ve even used leftover dip to stuff chicken breasts before wrapping the breasts with bacon and baking.

I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!

This recipe came from my mother. I remember smelling these savory little balls of heaven all day, every time there was a party or barbecue. The waiting was hard, I tell you! 🙂 It’s the perfect BYO food and so easy to make.

I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!
