Spaghetti with Butter and Parmesan

4-6 tbs butter (I used Brummel and Brown)
1 pound wheat spaghetti
1 cup freshly grated parmesan
black pepper to taste

Cook pasta. Drain. Add butter and cheese. Serve immediately. This was so easy and filling.

Beef Stew

1 pound lean stew meat
5 red potatoes, peeled and cut (I didn't peel mine, though)
carrots (depending on how many you like)
1 bag frozen peas
water (to cover)
beef broth (we use low-sodium, of course)

Brown beef with garlic, pepper and onion (or, in my case, onion powder).

Add all ingredients to crock pot. Cover with 1 cup beef broth and enough water to cover food. I added a little more garlic. Cook on high for 4 hours or on low 6-8. I added a tablespoon of corn starch mixed with a little cold water the last 10 minutes of cooking.

Jeff wanted me to make sure that I let you know this was a 10! More than a 10! If he could eat this every day he would.
