Recipes we all can make!

[Meggers]

I wouldn't be surprised if this has been created already but I wanted to put some wonderful recipes that are delish, (possibly) healthy (but mostly delish), and easy enough for even basic cooks to make.

Irish Eggs!

2 tablespoons butter
4 potatoes, peeled and sliced (or frozen ore ida obrien potatoes)
1 onion, minced
1 green bell pepper, chopped
6 eggs, beaten

also feel free to put in anything else! mushrooms, jalapenos, bacon, ham, etc. etc. Go nuts.

Directions

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium high heat. Add potatoes, onion and green pepper; saute until potatoes are browned. Stir in eggs and cook until eggs are set. Serve warm.

**I also put Natures Seasoning in almost everything eggs related. I put a couple good shakes of that into this too.

How simple or complex do you want recipes? with a Celtic flair? or international? 5 ingredients or less, 10 ingredients? I haven't written any new recipes in a while but most of mine tend to southern USA, Cajun, or Asian influenced.

Hands down, one of the best sites I've seen for easy recipes with few ingredients, has been Stone Soup... You can download the free eRecipebook, and the Blog has lots of recipes too. http://thestonesoup.com/blog/2011/07...-of-stonesoup/

Meh just something that I could whip up any night for dinner. I'm not a noob so I don't need 101 level but I also dont want it to have a ton of weird exotic ingredience that I cant get at my local grocery store.

international is always welcome. Celtic flair as well

Are you up for some chili??? It takes more than a couple minutes but you can put it in a crockpot and simmer it all day.


Chili
3 lbs burger, chili grind or cubed roast
1 chopped onion
1 tbsp garlic.
6 tbsp Chili powder
3 tbsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
2 pints of beer
1 tbsp masa.
1-2 tsp cayenne

Brown meat on high and drain most of the grease. Add onion and cook till clear. Pre measure and Add all remaining spices and cook for 1 minute. Add beer. When Chili returns to boil cut the heat to a simmer. Pull off 2 cups of "broth" and thicken it with masa stirring constantly. Return to pot and simmer until masa cooks in and chili thickens.

Ya, I cook stuff like chili in the crockpot all the time, except I just start throwing stuff in there.
