For a home-cooked comfort meal, especially in these difficult financial times, try this Classic

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal live. John 3:16 (NIV)

CLASSIC COUNTRY SWISS STEAK

2 large carrots, sliced
2 tbsp cooking oil, divided
1 lb boneless round steak
1 can (14 1/2 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1 tsp Splenda (or sugar)
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 can (4 oz) sliced mushrooms, drained
Cooked no-yolk egg noodles, if desired

In a large skillet, saute carrots in 1 tablespoon of the oil until the carrots are crisp-tender; remove and set aside. Cut meat into four pieces. Add meat and remaining oil to skillet; cook over medium-high heat until browned on both sides. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, Splenda, and oregano. Cover skillet and simmer for one hour. Add the onion, celery, mushrooms, and carrots. Cover again and simmer for 45 minutes or until meat and vegetables are tender. Thicken with a little flour or cornstarch if desired. Serve over the noodles, if desired.

GREEN BEANS AND GARLIC

2 lb fresh green beans
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/8 tsp black pepper

Rinse beans, but do not drain and dry. Snap into 2-inch lengths; set aside. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic to the oil and cook 1 to 2 minutes or until aromatic. Be careful not to let the garlic burn. Add soy sauce and enough water to wet the beans for steaming. Cover the pan and allow beans to steam cook until crisp tender and bright green. Stir often and add more water if necessary. Sprinkle with the pepper before serving.
