3rd place – Beef Brisket

Submitted by: Kay G.

This recipe is one of my family's favorite.  Our favorite way to cook is using a Texas beef rub but we also like the soup as well.  It is a no brainer and easy to put in oven and get other things done while cooking.  it can be frozen or cooked ahead of time and re-heated quickly but do not overcook when re-heating.  Very tasty with a good potato or sweet potato side dish and green veggie.

Beef Brisket:

1 3/12 to 71/2 pound beef brisket
1 envelope Lipton Onion soup mix

2nd Place- Coconut Curry
Submitted by:Talitha F.

This is a recipe I came up with several years ago, and it's had RAVE reviews each time I've served it.  People cannot believe how easy AND quick it is to make, too.  It is also non-dairy and gluten free, and relatively inexpensive.  It should appeal to many people.

Ingredients:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
Few tablespoons of desired oil for sautéing the chicken
Salt & pepper to taste
2-13.5 oz. cans "Chaokoh" Coconut Milk (I have tried other brands, but this one has the thickest and creamiest consistency)
1- 20 oz. can pineapple chunks
1 T yellow curry powder (more or less to taste
