Thanks for the feedback on the stroganoff! I was going to have to use something to replace the dairy so I probably won't bother with this one now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-weeks-menu-plan#post-2714099 Wed, 22 Mar 2017 07:45:31 +0000 erinbaderin 2714099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bushelandapeck: I didn't love the stroganoff - it was fine but I wanted it to be creamier, maybe? It probably didn't help that after the 6 hours of cooking it sat on warm for another 6. I think it might have been better with stewing beef instead of ground beef. It also required a lot of prep for a crockpot meal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-weeks-menu-plan#post-2713396 Mon, 20 Mar 2017 20:32:47 +0000 MrsLonghorn 2713396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: thanks! For a native New Yorker to want to try a new kind of pizza, he must have read something really good about it! There is a place in a suburb here that supposedly makes it really good, so he's been wanting to try it for a few weeks (but only seems to remember during rush hour....) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-weeks-menu-plan#post-2713269 Mon, 20 Mar 2017 17:07:44 +0000 Bibliolove 2713269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: interesting!

The cheese usually goes all the way to the edges and you get that crispy cheesy edge thing. And the sauce is usually ladled on top of the cheese, again, for that chewy crispy cheese texture. </p> <p>I married a Michigander, so I had to learn this stuff. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-weeks-menu-plan#post-2713257 Mon, 20 Mar 2017 16:53:01 +0000 SweetCaroline 2713257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ham, Egg and Cheese Pockets<br /> Mexican Beef Casserole<br /> Lasagna<br /> Leftovers<br /> Shrimp Balls </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-weeks-menu-plan#post-2713256 Mon, 20 Mar 2017 16:52:48 +0000 Bibliolove 2713256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsLonghorn: what is Detroit-style?
