The Best Sammie's (made with deer or beef)

This is such an easy recipe and it taste so good. Its up to you if you use beef or deer roast. They are both very tasty but of course the deer is much healthier.

Ingredients:
Beef or deer roast (soak overnight in salt water if using deer)
Lipton onion soup mix (2pks if using deer)
two onions chopped
2 or 3 cloves of garlic chopped or pressed
Whatever kind of cheese you like...i use provolone cheese in slices.
bell pepper and onion cut into strips
olive oil
oven toasted bread...we use Cobblestone Mill Hoagies
mayo

Place your roast in a crockpot and turn on high
Add Lipton onion soup mix packs
Put in the chopped onions and garlic
Cook all day on high till the roast is done and falling apart
Take a fork and twist the roast and work on it until it is shredded for the most part

After the roast is finished cooking you need to start sauteing your onion and pepper strips in olive oil. Cook until soft.
Toast your bread in the oven
Layer the cheese, roast, mayo and onions and peppers on the bread.
Use the juice from the cooked roast as a dipping sauce for your Sammie if desired.
ENJOY!!

Pumpkin Seeds

Toasted Pumpkin Seeds

Ingredients:

One medium sized pumpkin
Salt
Olive oil

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut open the pumpkin and use a strong metal spoon to scoop out the insides. Separate the seeds from the stringy core. Rinse the seeds.

2. In a small saucepan, add the seeds to water, about 2 cups of water to every half cup of seeds. Add a half tablespoon of salt for every cup of water (more if you like your seeds saltier). Bring to a boil. Let simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and drain.

3. Spread about a tablespoon of olive oil over the bottom of a roasting pan. Spread the seeds out over the roasting pan, all in one layer. Bake on the top rack until the seeds begin to brown, 10-20 minutes. When browned to your satisfaction, remove from the oven and let the pan cool on a rack. Let the seeds cool all the way down before eating.
