April's Recipe Group--April 21st.

Hi everyone! I'm new to this, so hopefully I'm doing it right :).

At last month's recipe group we decided to move our meetings to the 3rd Thursday of the month, since our Relief Society meetings are on the 2nd Thursday, and there's no need to have all of our fun on the same day :).

We'll meet at my house (Jennie's house--180 w 1825 N) at 11:00 am on Thursday, April 21st.

Please bring your favorite "stress food" recipe-- meaning something you like to make when you're especially stressed, frustrated, frazzled, sad, distraught, frantic, etc. You know, the kind of food you crave when the world is collapsing all around you, and one bite can make everything a little better . . . . THAT kind of recipe!

Can't wait to see you all soon!!

Crockpot Recipes

Sorry!  I forgot one...

Karalee's Sloppy Joes

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 large onion
1 1/2 lbs. lean turkey
2-2 1/2 cups wheat berries
salt and pepper
2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup mustard
1/4 tsp. cayenne
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. tomato paste
1 Tbsp. red wine vinegar

Add olive oil to a warm pan.  Add onions and saute for 2-3 minutes until translucent.  Add ground turkey, season well with salt and pepper and brown well, breaking with a wooden spoon.  dd ketchup, mustard, cayenne, brown sugar and tomato paste.  Reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes.  Finish with a splash of red wine vinegar and season before serving.  (I'm guessing you stir the wheat berries in toward the end.)
