12 oz (-ish) broccoli florets
1/3 cup beef broth
1/3 orange marmalade
2 T soy sauce
1/4 t salt

Sometimes I jump on here to look up a recipe I need, and am shocked not to find it, since it’s an oft made favorite. We’re having this for dinner tonight and I was surprised I hadn’t posted it yet. The original is from Kraft food & Family Fall 2005. I love it because it’s [...]

1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak, 1 to 1 1/4-inches thick
2 teaspoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black [...]

Adapted from Rachael Ray – Our changes – we used beef, and instead of 1.5 lbs, we used almost 1 lb. I had used the jalapeno the day before in gazpacho, so that got left out, too. Other than that, we used the recipe as written and OH MAN these were good. We always use [...]
