Meat and potatoes.

Tonight Zan and I made a hearty (and delicious) dinner. I will give Zan most of the credit, but I also did my part. We went for the classic meat and potatoes meal and it was ta-A-sty.
Ingredients (serves 2+):
1lb sirloin steak tips (ours were marinated from Whole Foods)
1 butternut squash (peeled)
4 potatoes (unpeeled)
milk, butter, garlic
brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg
salt and pepper
Here’s how the meal making went….
Start with melting some butter and garlic…
add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar too.


Then add about 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil. Add potatoes.


Peel squash. Cut into cubes. Boil til tender.

Cook steak sips in olive oil over medium heat. 4 minutes each side.

Get out your new AWESOME bowls and plates from the thrift store.

Choose your wine.

Pour. Toast.

Sit back. Relax. And let the food cook.

Mash the squash. Mash ’em good with brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. And butter. And more brown sugar. .

Mash the potatoes. SO steamy and savory.

Voila! ENJOY!!!
