WHAT CAN I ADD TO COWBOY STEW FOR FLAVOR?

In this recipe, spices make all the difference. Don’t hesitate to add more spices if you want a bit more kick.

A pinch of cinnamon, a dash of paprika as well as cumin and chili powder can render a very delicious stew.

I usually add chopped jalapenos to make it a bit spicier. Sometimes I even add cheese on top, throw it in the oven, and broil it until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH COWBOY STEW?

To add a bit of freshness to this dish, I generally serve it with a simple mixed greens salad or coleslaw and a big slice of sourdough bread.

PRO TIPS FOR COWBOY STEW;

1. This recipe is so easy, you really don’t have to be a pro to make it. But if you

1. want to make it even more special,
2. Place cooked stew on a casserole dish, put cheese on top, and bake until bubbly
3. After cooking the ground beef and adding the kielbasa, cook it for a couple more minutes and drain the excess fat from the meat and the sausage.

What are Charms and DooDads?

 Don't you just love them?

For some reason I feel like I just wrote about them recently.  Do you do that? Do something and forget you wrote or spoke to someone about that very subject then repeat it over and over.  That is called getting old.  Yikes, never thought I would do that.  But low and behold I now do.  Not bad yet.  What was I talking about?   Just kidding.  

Charms and DooDads.

What is a charm?

Well you can charm someone to get them to like you.  But that is not the one I am talking about.

Here are some charms.   Use them to decorate with, or put on earrings, necklaces, whatever.

Ok now what is a Doo Dad.

Well it is just about anything.  A trivial ornament or gadget that you can't quite thing of the name for it.   Like the front of a button, broken ear ring, cute thing. You can make really cool things out of them. I mean just look at the pics below.

Some look like they are from earrings.  I mean if I have 2 of them the buyer might want to make earrings.  So far I just play around with them, coming up with ways they might be used.  I have way to many crafts in my head of what I want to make.  Here are some more ideas.

So much fun.  Have you made something with a DooDad like about?  Please share it with me.  If you don't mind I would love to share it with others.  

Why did I make this post?  Well to direct you to my Website (Creative Crafts and Supplyz and to explain to a few of you what a DooDad is and what you can do with them.
