1 lb of ground beef depending on how many you want to make.
1/2 package of Garlic and Herb roasted potato seasoning
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic (one clove minced if you’re using fresh)
1 slice of toast crumbed


 

Preheat oven to 325.  Mix all ingredients together in bowl and form into balls.  I was able to make 15 by making balls about the size of a ping pong ball.  Place in baking dish and bake for 30 minutes, turning once about 20 minutes in.  Remove from oven and cover in sauce of your choice and return to oven and bake for another 30 minutes. 

 

These were so tasty that my husband even ate some for lunch the next day, and he rarely eats leftovers!  

 
 

Brown and drain a pound of hamburger.  stir in one big or two regular sized cans of refried beans.  let it simmer for at least 20 mn.  make sure you stir it every once in a while or it will burn to the bottom of the pan and piss you right off.  the longer it simmers, the better it is.  a few minutes before it's done, toss in some finely chopped onion.  (apparently you want the onion to still be crunchy.  i could care less, but whatever.)  serve on tortillas with all the fixin's. 

this keeps really well in the fridge.  score.

addendum: this is actually a recipe from my mother-in-law.  my husband says i can't call them "Emily's" burritos.  i say that since i barfed them up, undigested, while i was in labor, i can call them anything i want.


 
 

 We used boneless pork sirloin chops, but I'm sure regular bone-in pork chops would work just fine.

Put a box of Shake and Bake into a large ziplock bag. Add some garlic (to your taste), some salt and pepper, and whatever other seasoning you like. (I think we used some Cajun seasoning and some chili powder.) Put the pork in the bag and shake vigorously. VIGOROUSLY. 

Then put the pork in a baking dish and bake at 400 degrees for about 35 minutes. 

It's good.
