This weeks recipes comes from my husband's aunt who has raised 5 children and countless others as a day care provider over the years.

Betty’s Barbeque
2 lbs. hamburger
1 package of Sloppy Joe Seasoning Mix (McCormick or Flavorite)
1can tomato paste
1 cup water
3 tbsp brown sugar
Brown hamburger and drain the liquid. Add sloppy Joe mix, tomato paste, water and brown sugar. Simmer for 20 mins. Serve on buns.
Knoephla Soup
6 potatoes, peeled & diced
1 onion, chopped
6 cups water (2 inches above the potatoes)
2 cups cream
2 cups milk
2 tbsp chicken Flavor stock
2 envelopes of Cream of Chicken (Lipton Cup-a-soup) Add to milk
Combine potatoes, onion, chicken flavored stock and water in a kettle: cook until tender. When tender add milk, cream, and cream of chicken. Add dumplings. Simmer for 10 mins.
Dumplings
3 cups flour, 3 beaten eggs, 1 cup milk, ½ tsp salt
I use a spaetzle make to make my dumplings and I like to cook my dumplings before adding to the soup. You may add the dumplings right to the soup.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil: add dumplings with a small spoon if you don’t have a spaetzle maker. Cook for 5 mins. Drain

I'm hungry. Real hungry. There is simply nothing like Mom's cooking. The recipes sound simple, but they taste great and all four are great comfort food.
