Blast from the Past

Last Christmas I received this as a gift from one of my Twisted Sisters.
 
 
His Lordship and I discovered this way back in about 1988 when we lived in Champaign Urbana.  When my mom came to stay with us, we shared it with her.  She loved it so much that we used to buy it in large quantities and give it to her for Christmas.  For about 15 years it has been off of my radar.  But low and behold, my sister found it.
 
We used to make it with Campbell's soups.  But being a little more health conscious now, I used these soups instead to prepare it last night.


 
 
 
I also sautéed 1/2 cup of chopped red onion and 1 lb of mushrooms with the ground bison I used instead of ground beef.  For liquid, I added 1/2 of soaking water from some dried mushrooms, a cup of homemade bone and veggie stock and 1 cup of water.  It came out very yummy!  But unfortunately, because of all that rice, I can only eat a little of it.  Looks like his Lordship is going Cajun for the next week.

  1. Yeah, the soups put me off a bit, too. I forget now how I modified, but it still came out delicious.
