A couple weeks ago I posted a bolognese recipe. Shortly thereafter I received a few messages asking if the recipe was “any good.” One person in particular didn’t want to be “dicked around” if I was only posting “crappy recipes” that I’d “never even tried before.”
You can be forgiven, dear reader, for questioning whether or not I should be allowed to vote in a local election or swim with dolphins…but, my recipes are GOOD. (Unless I tell you they’re not.) They might even be DELICIOUS to someone who is coming off a detox diet, or who was raised in Ireland. My recipes are tried, tested, and true. I post pictures I’ve taken as a sort of ‘proof of life’ to ensure authenticity. There are no guarantees you’ll love them…as all tastes differ, but I am absolutely not dicking you around.
Don’t ask me for legal advice, if you should divorce your spouse, or why I’m crying on the bus. I don’t have the answers you’re looking for. But, if you want some heartfelt suggestions about what you should do with old bananas, I’m your girl.
Beef Tacos
Make them. Eat them. You’ll probably like them.
- 1.4 Kilos/3 lbs ground beef
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves crushed
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 cups tomato puree

Heat a deep pan over medium heat. Saute the garlic, onion and beef until cooked and brown. Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer on low for 45 minutes.
This makes approximately 37 generous portions.

Mix it up. Use as needed.
