Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounces) pkg shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (8 ounces) bottle of Parmesan-peppercorn dressing, divided
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • ½ onion, chopped
  • 1 (13.8 ounces) can of refrigerated pizza dough
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 pound ground beef

Instructions

Prepare the oven and preheat it to 218 degrees C or 425 degrees F.

Apply cooking spray to a rimmed baking sheet.

Place a large skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Add the beef, then cook for a few minutes until crumbly and brown.

Add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté the veggies for a few minutes until aromatic and soft. Remove and discard any accumulated fat. Add salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to taste.

Roll out the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Press it to the bottom and sides.

Sprinkle 1 cup of cheese over the prepared dough.

Add the beef mixture over the cheese and spread it evenly. Make sure to cover the top entirely.

Sprinkle more cheese on top of the beef mixture, followed by a drizzle of ¼ cup of dressing.

Roll the dough and seal the sides by pressing them.

Lay it onto the prepared baking sheet. Make small shallow slices on top to put in layers.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the Stromboli for about 20 to 25 minutes or until it turns golden brown.

Remove the Stromboli from the oven and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Slice it into even cuts.

Serve the Stromboli with the dressing. Enjoy!

Notes

To Make the Side Dish: Add 1 (12-oz) pkg classic salad, ½ cup balsamic vinaigrette, and ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese into a large mixing bowl. Toss everything until well incorporated.

Ingredients:

3 1/2 oz (100g) of bacon

7 oz (200g) city ham, already cooked — sold as “ready to serve”. Still, on the bone, it’s better! If you don’t want to bring back the whole ham at home, ask your butcher to slice it off for you.

5 fl ounces (15cl) of white wine

3 1/2 oz (100g) black olives

3 1/3 fl ounces (10cl) olive oil

4 Eggs

1/2 tsp salt

2 tbsp chopped parsley

5 oz (150g) grated swiss cheese or cheddar

1 large onion

Apply cooking spray or brush butter to a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

Add eggs, salt, wine, and oil into a large mixing bowl. Whisk everything until well incorporated.

In another mixing bowl, add baking powder and flour. Whisk until well blended.

Transfer the flour mixture into the bowl with the egg mixture, then whisk until well combined.

Place a skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Add bacon and cook for a few minutes until crisp.

Finely chop the onion, then add it to the skillet. Saute for a few minutes until soft.

Transfer the bacon and onion onto a clean plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.

Slice the ham, parsley, and olives into small pieces.

Add everything to the bowl with the egg mixture. Stir until well incorporated.

Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for about an hour or until a toothpick comes out clean after inserting it in the middle.

Remove the bread from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes at room temperature before serving.

Serve and enjoy!

MEXICAN SHREDDED BEEF {EASY, CROCK POT OR INSTANT POT RECIPE}

by Rebecca October 15, 2022
written by Rebecca

Prep Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 8 hrs | Total Time: 8 hrs 10 mins | Yield: 6 Cups

This Mexican Shredded Beef is super easy to prepare and cook! You can either use a crockpot or an Instant Pot! Ready in just a couple of hours, this is surely worth all the time and effort. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 lime, juiced

2 tablespoons tomato paste

1/2 c beef broth

3.5-4 pounds chuck roast

Dry Rub Spices:

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for added heat)

2 teaspoons cumin

1/2 tablespoon onion powder

1-2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/2 teaspoon paprika

2 tablespoons chili powder (I used McCormick brand)

Directions:

In a mixing bowl, add all the ingredients for the dry rub spices. Whisk everything until well incorporated.

In a separate mixing bowl, add tomato paste and beef broth. Stir until well blended.

Put the Chuck roast into the insert of your crockpot. Sprinkle the rub spices over and rub it until fully coated. Add the broth mixture on top.

Cover and seal the crockpot, then cook the roast for about 8 hours on a low setting.

Move the roast onto a clean plate, then with two forks, shred it into small pieces. Discard any excess fat.

Bring the shredded roast back into the pot together with lemon juice. Stir everything until well incorporated.

Serve right away. Enjoy!

Notes:

Instant Pot:

Repeat the process up until the step of the half cup of beef broth.

Press the “Manual” button and cook for about 90 minutes on a high setting.

Let the pressure release naturally, then transfer the roast onto a clean plate. Use two forks to shred it into small pieces. Discard any excess fat.

Put the shredded roast back into the Instant Pot together with lime juice. Stir everything until well combined.

Serve and enjoy!

I highly suggest cooking this for 8 hours in your slow cooker.

Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then put them in the fridge. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
