Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Kinda Like Beef Stroganoff….but not

This is another one of those recipes that has served my family well over the last 20 years or so. I'm not really sure who came up with this idea...but it was GENIUS! Who would have thought to add cheddar cheese soup and get these results in the end? My family LOVES this dish. It's so easy to prepare. Combine it all in the crock pot...give it a stir every now and then and serve it up. Easy to double....leftovers are great. Who could ask for more?

But Not



2 pounds round steak

1 envelope onion soup mix

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Dash pepper
1 pound of pasta – (bowtie, penne, rotini, etc.) cooked and drained

Cut round steak into 1 inch cubes. Set aside.

Combine all other ingredients, except pasta,  in crock pot. Mix well. Add cubed steak and stir. Set crock pot on low and let it go for 6 – 8 hours. Serve over pasta...or rice!


Here's what you need...


Dump the goods in the crock pot.


Give it a mix...


...add the meat.


Stir it up and cook away!
