Thai Beef On Orange Slices

[Wrongly regarding church involvement]: Christians can think it’s fine to attend a church indefinitely without joining; Christians think of getting baptized apart from joining; Christians take the Lord’s Supper without joining; Christians view the Lord’s Supper as their own private, mystical experience for Christians and not as an activity for church members who are incorporated into body life together; Christians don’t integrate their Monday-to-Saturday lives with the lives of other saints; Christians assume they can make a perpetual habit of being absent from the church’s gathering a few Sundays a month or more; Christians make major life decisions (moving, accepting a promotion, choosing a spouse, etc.) without considering the effects of those decisions on the family of relationships in the church or without consulting the wisdom of the church’s pastors and other members; Christians buy homes or rent apartments with scant regard for how factors such as distance and cost will affect their abilities to serve their church; Christians don’t realize that they are partly responsible for both the spiritual welfare and the physical livelihood of the other members of their church, even members they have not met. When one mourns, one mourns by himself. When one rejoices, one rejoices by herself.

INSTRUCTIONS

Peel the oranges. Cut each crosswise into 4 thick slices. Arrange on a

and oil.  Cook, stirring frequently, over medium-high heat for 3
minutes, or  until the onions are soft but not browned. Add the beef.
Cook and  stir for 5 minutes, or until the beef is no longer pink. Add
the  peppers, brown sugar, soy sauce, and vinegar. Cook, stirring
frequently, for 3 minutes, or until the liquid evaporates. Add the
cilantro. Stir well to combine. Top each orange slice with the beef
mixture.  Makes 16 servings (appetizer) or 4 servings (light dinner)
To freeze, pack the cooled cooked beef in 3 freezer-quality plastic
container. Freeze for up to 3 months. To use, thaw overnight in the
refrigerator. To serve: Microwave on high power for 5 minutes, or
until hot.  NOTES : This traditional Thai snack-spicy ground beef
served on orange  slices makes an unusual and refreshing appetizer. For
authentic  flavor, substitute Thai fish sauce for the soy sauce. In
Asian stores  or most supermarkets, fish sauce costs less than $1 per
16-ounce  bottle.  Recipe by: Prevention's Freezer Cookbook - For the
