Grandma's Chop Suey Recipe

A few weeks ago I filled in with a guest post over at my friend Jamie's blog,

Love Bakes Good Cakes 

I mean it when I say, Jamie's blog is my go-to when I need to find something amazing to cook or bake for Mr. B.

Jamie was kind enough to cover for me last Fall while I was away at my oldest son's wedding and I was so pleased that I could return the favor! 

Thank you so much, Jamie!

I shared one of Mr. B's favorite meals. Mr. B craves comfort food. 

Comfort food to him means one of his Grandmother's favorite recipes,

and today I am sharing one of those with you, her Chop Suey.

This is such a quick and easy meal to make. It's so much better than take out, you'll find yourself craving it too!

Grandma's Chop Suey

1 pound ground beef

1/4 onion, chopped

2 stalks celery, chopped

1 can bean sprouts, drained and rinsed

Pinch of sugar

4 good dashes low sodium soy sauce, to taste

4 cups cabbage, diced

Salt and pepper, to taste

Brown and drain the ground beef and return to skillet. Stir in the onions, celery and bean sprouts. Add the sugar and soy sauce and mix in thoroughly. Top with the cabbage, cover and heat until the cabbage is wilted, stirring often. Serve with the sweet and sour sauce and chow mein noodles.

Sweet & Sour Sauce

1/4 cup ketchup

1/4 cup vinegar

1/2 cup sugar

1 cup water

2 tablespoons cornstarch

Combine the ketchup, vinegar, sugar and water in a sauce pan and bring to a low boil. in a small bowl, add a little cold water to the cornstarch and mix until you have a smooth slurry. Add the cornstarch slurry to the sauce and stir until thickened.

And there you have it!  A tasty dinner on the table in no time!

I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
