This delightful casserole is easy to make, gives you two options to try, & taste so GOOD! This photo is the Ground Pork version!
1 Pound Hatfield Ground Pork, it is very lean! Or use 1 Pound Lean Ground Beef!
1/4 Head of Cabbage Shredded or use 1 Bag of pre-shredded Slaw Mix
1/2 Onion Chopped
1. 10&1/2 Ounce Campbell's Tomato Soup or use 1 Can of Campbell's Beef Gravy 13.8 ounce size can if making the beef version

Mix the meat with the cabbage & onion season to taste with salt & pepper press this mixture down into a 10 inch deep pie plate, Spread the soup if making the pork version over the meat. Do the same with the gravy if using the beef. Spread out evenly! Now cover the top with the thawed Hashbrowns. Sprinkle some parsley over the top! Bake in a preheated oven uncovered for 1 hour & 35 minutes or until the hashbrowns are crispy brown & casserole is bubbling! Serve with crusty hot bread or hot dinner rolls! DELICIOUS!

2 Pounds Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast

Lay out enough foil to make a large packet for your chicken, spread 1 Tablespoon of the oil over the bottom of the foil. Sprinkle 1/2 of the soup mix over the oil. Lay the chicken on top of that then smear the rest of the oil over the chicken. Sprinkle the remaining soup mix over the top. Seal up your packet & lay it on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes.

Fresh Cut French Fries

                                                                           
A wonderful treat that goes great with anything from a Hot Dog to Steak! These are FRESH cut, fried, salted & served up RED HOT! A fast & easy side that kids young & old will dive right into!
2 Baking Potatoes per person.
Vegetable Oil enough to give you 3 inched deep in your skillet
Salt
Pepper if using
Ketchup, a must for me!
A good Malt Vinegar for those vinegar lovers
Paper Towel to drain cooked fries

Scrub your potatoes & dry. Slices into nice big wedges. Heat oil in a large deep skillet, I use my black iron skillet! Oi should be hot enough to sizzle a potato wedge the second it is dropped into the oil. I use medium high heat, you do not want oil to smoke. Place all the cut potato wedges in the oil & fry away, turning once one side of the potatoes is brown. Turn every now & then to brown those fries! I use this method over deep frying, it works just as well & uses less oil! This will take about 10 minutes! Once potatoes are browned spoon out of the oil with a slotted spoon & lay fries in a deep bowl lined with layers of paper towel. Blot off excess oil! Serve hot with any of the condiments suggested! Taste & SMILE!
