If you are anything like me, sometimes, you crave a good ol' country fried steak. No, it isn't healthy, by any means. But if you can find a good one, they are DELICIOUS!
Here's a crack at making my own. They turned out pretty good for a beginner, but I definitely need more practice!
Chicken Fried Steak
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups of milk
2 large eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp seasoned salt
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
3/4 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
3 lbs cube steak
1/2 cup canola or veg oil
1 tbsp butter
Directions
Begin with an assembly line of dishes
1st dish - Mix milk and the eggs together
2nd dish - Combine flour, salt, pepper, paprika and cayenne
3rd dish - Meat
4th dish - Empty for meat once coated
Sprinkle both sides of meat with salt and pepper
Place into flour mixture. Turn to coat
Place meat into milk/egg mixture. Turn to coat
Place back into flour and turn to coat
Place breaded meat on clean plate
Repeat until all meat is breaded
Heat oil in skillet. Add butter
Cook meat until edges are golden brown (approx 2 min per side)
Remove meat to paper towel-lined plate and cover with foil to keep warm
Top with white pepper gravy and serve (I just used packaged gravy)

Turkey Spinach Meatballs
I have made meatballs before and they were so delicious. Recently, I got a weird craving for them and decided to change the recipe up a bit. They were SO good!

1-2 cup fresh spinach chopped
2 tbsp Worchestershire sauce
1/2 cup chicken stock

Line baking sheet with foil and spray lightly with non-stick spray
Place saute pan on medium heat and heat olive oil until hot
Add onion, garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, oregano and red pepper
