On Monday I decided it was time to try the Carrot Bread recipe which I did . . . another YUMMY recipe.
I don't have cast iron loaf pans, so I used my Pyrex glass loaf pans ... we'll be doing this one again too!
Carrots homegrown in our garden too!

Yesterday I made beef stew in my Dutch Oven. There isn't a specific stew recipe in Mary Janes book but I looked at the Coffee Pot Roast recipe for some ideas and yes, I used coffee. Since it was for supper I made decaf coffee. It was REALLY GOOD! We raise our own beef and had a package of stew meat in the freezer, along with our homegrown carrots. Potatoes were from a vendor at our local Winter Farmers Market. Along with onion, garlic, serrano pepper, rosemary, bay leaves, basil and oregano. I first marinated the stew meat in some spicy vinegar (that I put together myself some time ago).
VERY YUMMY!!

Can't wait. I love using my cast iron but really could use some recipes for it. I've seen some great recipes from it that other had made so I will be putting my book to good use when I finally get back!

I just ordered mine thanks to a gift card we got for Christmas!! I wanted to get the wild bread book too but it didn't quite cover shipping which would have been fine but I couldn't pay for part with the gift card and part with my regular card :(. Maybe I can get the bread book next month.

I Have Mary Jane's Cast Iron Kitchen, and I also found a cookbook at JoAnns a while back called Cast Iron Cooking Inside and Out. I've attached a picture of the cover and the List of Recipes. A friend of mine cooks in Cast Iron all the time - she says that's how her mother taught her. I only have one cast iron skillet and one cast iron pan that makes 6 Christmas tree shaped muffins or corn bread. I got it at my favorite thrift shop.

Well, I have to say that my hubby and I REALLY LIKED the Squash and Chicken recipe. It was VERY, VERY TASTY! I used chicken breasts instead of thighs, because that's what I had in the freezer! Gonna be doing that one again too!!

Let me just say that MJ’s “Baked Chicken and Squash” with the “Herbed Honey Mustard” sauce in this cookbook is DELISH! My family has asked me to put it on the “will repeat frequently” recipe list. I cant wait to try some of the other recipes. I love anytime I can use my cast iron skillet ware!

P.S. My topping on the cinnamon roll is the same one for the sweet potatoe pie. We like pecan/caramel-y type topping on our cinnamon rolls!

Yes, Jana, all those recipes are in MJs Cast Iron cookbook! They ARE DELICIOUS! I'm trying to decide what I'll try next . . possibly some chile in a Dutch Oven. Hubby and I have been REALLY SICK with the flu since Christmas Day. We were hit HARD and still trying to get well and get some energy and stamina back. It's been ROUGH. So, we're not cooking much . . .
But, they are VERY WORTH IT!!

My version of the Biscuit & Chicken Skillet Pie. I sprinkled addtional rosemary, lemon basil, thyme and savory over the chicken/veggie mix. And, I'm too lazy to roll out biscuits so I made the drop biscuits! It was VERY TASTY!!!!

Oh my goodness those look wonderful CJ! Are those recipes in the Cast Iron Cookbook? If so, I need to pull them out and get busy as I think the cinnamon roll will be wonderful for Christmas morning. Were they as delicious as they look?
Alee, I agree with you about magazine costs, I too have stopped impulse purchases because of the sticker shock.
