Comfort Food

I had to call my mom this week and get her recipe for "Chipped Beef on Toast."

I've never gotten the recipe before because, well, I've never craved it before.  We used to eat it pretty often as kids.... it's cheap and easy. 

Too bad it isn't healthy.  Except... when I said this.... mom says, "Dairy.  That's healthy."

Then I called my sister and freaked her out because she was craving it as well.

So... without further ado.  This will probably gross you out but I think we are having it for dinner next week.

Chipped Beef on Toast (aka Shit on a Shingle)

Melt 4 TBS butter, add in 3-4 TBS flour so it makes a paste.  Add 1.5-2 cups of milk.  Bring to a boil and let it get thick.  Add a package of chipped beef, torn into bite-sized pieces.  Serve over toast.

We make it with tuna....and now that's what I'm craving and DH doesn't allow tuna in the house. Sigh.

I think I just threw up a little bit . . . Right in my mouth.
