Frugal dairy and soy free recipes?!


Question:

Frugal dairy and soy free recipes?

We are on a VERY tight budget. I am looking for any meal ideas that have no dairy and no soy. My little guy can't have either. Chicken, pork, turkey is also questionable because it's so expensive. We do have a freezer full of elk steaks (can be ate as steak or cut up) and ground elk meat. Any ideas?


Answers:
here's a few ideas...

baked chili with elk and pinto beans
1 1/2 cups pinto beans, dried
5 1/2 cups water
1 pound elk, trimmed, cut into 1inch pieces
2 1/2 Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 1/2 cups onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 1/2 cups tomato sauce
Preheat oven to 325F Rinse beans thoroughly and sort through to remove dirt. In a large Dutch oven, cover beans and water, and heat to a boil. Boil for two minutes. Add remaining ingredients and stir. Cover and bake in oven until elk and beans are tender, about 4 hours. Remove from oven and stir.Serve with chopped green onions.

Crockpot Elk
5 lbs. elk brisket
2-3 Tbs. vinegar
1 Tbs. liquid smoke
A little oil
Salt & pepper
Dried garlic & dried onion
Marinate meat with all the above ingredients (may be marinated overnight). Pour 2 cups water in bottom of crockpot, then place the meat tightly wrapped in heavy duty aluminum foil including all the marinade as well, into the crockpot. Cook all day, at least 8 hours. Carefully remove meat and drain off liquid, reserving. Slice thinly for 'elk dip' using the reserved liquid for the 'au jus'. Season with salt & pepper. If preparing barbecue, shred the meat, add barbecue sauce of your choice, and small amount of the reserved liquid. Reheat and serve on buns.
