Re: Best mom ever recipes
1.5 cups flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoon butter
1.5 cup milk
1 egg
Melt butter. Allow to cool a little before combining wet ingredients. In deprecate bowl combine dry ingredients. Mix wet with dry and don't over stir.
Cook in greased pan over medium high heat. They rise quite a bit so don't put too much batter initially.
You can add anything to this recipe ( blueberries,choc chips though bananas change the moisture a bit so add the milk only until you get the right consistency).

Can that be done in a crock pot? Like for pot lucks at work id love to have it all together and just bring it in and turn it on in the morning and it's all hot and ready at lunch time

~ 1 lb Ground Beef
Corn and Peas
1 can Cream of mushroom soup
Boxed roasted garlic potatoes (we use the kind that comes with 2 packs in a box and use both packs)
Fry up hamburg and drain the fat and put back into pan. Add cream of mushroom soup to hamburg- cook on low.
Make potatoes according to package. Since boxed potatoes thicken upon standing it would help to have the hamburg/mushroom mixture in pan with veggies next. That way the potatoes can easily be spread on top.
Bake at 350 F for 15-20 mins or until veggies are cooked.

it is basically this :
https://www.pillsbury.com/recipes/veggie-lovers-pot-pie/77a6b30c-f446-43b7-8a76-cb8e3cd4ca51
but I use just a big double pie crust (like if you were making apple pie) instead of the crescent rolls, fresh vegetables instead of frozen, and cheddar cheese not Parmesan. It's yummy...very comforting and makes good left overs too. Oh and use a little extra flour to thicken it up.
@crazycoffeegirl I NEED your pho recipe!!! Especially if it can be done in a crock pot!!!

Vietnamese Chicken Pho
3 32 oz boxes of chicken stock
2-3 cups cooked chicken, shredded (you can use raw chicken if you cut them up into smaller pieces)
8 oz bean sprouts
half to one yellow onion
1 box rice stick noodles
1 bunch basil, chopped (preferably Thai)
Hoisin sauce, for serving
lime wedges, for serving
jalapenos, for serving
1. Add stock and chicken to Crock Pot, Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours, or on high for 3 hours.
2. Add bean sprouts, onion, noodles and thai basil. Heat until noodles are softened
3. Spoon soup into individual bowls and serve with hoisin sauce, lime wedges and jalapenos.
If you want to make beef pho (way more ingredients so I usually don't bother):
1 to 1 1/2 lb oxtails (If that's too expensive, substitute with short ribs.)
1/2-lb eye of round beef slices (These are sold in Asian grocery stores already pre-sliced. If not, ask your butcher to slice them deli thin. Or use whatever meat you have on hand and slice it as thin as possible.)
1 package of Rice noodles
A dozen cloves, studded into an onion
1 stick of cinnamon
About 5 star anise pods
1 tsp coriander seeds
A 2-inch knob of ginger
About 4 cloves of garlic
1 carrot, cut into several sections
2 tablespoon fish sauce, or more according to taste
2 tsp salt, or more according to taste
Optional: 3 cardamom pods. 1 small package of beef meat balls or beef tendon meat balls, book tripe, flank steak, any other meat parts you wish.
1. I use a mesh ball to place my spices inside. Afterward, I just pull the ball out and dump the spices. Use a cheesecloth if you don't have one. Add cloves, coriander seeds, cardamom pods, ginger, clove-studded onion, star anise, and cinnamon into the mesh ball.
2. Wash and rinse 1 lb of oxtails. Add to Crock Pot. Add in the mesh ball of spices, clove-studded onion, ginger, carrot, and garlic.
3. Fill the pot with water. Also, add about 2 tsp salt and 2 tblsp fish sauce. Cover and let simmer on high for at least 6 hours.
4. After 6 hours, remove the onion, carrots, ginger, garlic, and spice ball. Then using my skimming spoon, I removed as much of the impurities on top as I could. The fine mesh also grabs excess fat.
5. Serve with condiments and whatever meat you want!

My favorite comfort food is my mom's beef burgundy... and it's conveniently extremely easy to make. I use the crock pot, but you can also use a casserole dish in the oven.
2 pounds stew beef
2 cans of GOLDEN mushroom soup (we use campbells, not sure if there's other kinds)
1 large yellow onion, diced
1 soup can full of hearty red wine
1 small package of sliced mushrooms
Everything goes in the crockpot on low for 8 hours or medium for 6. We switch between serving it over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.

Boil chicken legs/thighs with salt. Skim fat periodically. Once no more fat rises, add carrots, celery, onion, salt, pepper, and fresh dill. Cook on low pretty much all day. Serve over cooked pasta.
