Gail | Thursday, November 09, 2000 - 07:38 pm     Just for something fun - since we are from all different regions, I thought it would be nice to start our own recipe book. |
Gail | Thursday, November 09, 2000 - 07:40 pm     This is a recipe that I like for Thanksgiving . . the topping is kind of like a Pecan Pie topping/ Sweet Potato Casserole 3 Cups Sweet Potatoes, Mashed 1/2 Cup Sugar 2 Eggs, Beaten 1/4 Cup Butter Or Margarine, Melted 1/2 Cup Milk 1 1/2 Teaspoons Vanilla 1 Cup Brown Sugar 1 Cup Pecans, Chopped 1/3 Cup Flour 1/3 Cup Butter Or Margarine, Melted Mix Sweet potatoes, (I used canned) granulated sugar, egg, 1/4 butter, milk and vanilla together well and put in greased baking dish.

Maire | Thursday, November 09, 2000 - 11:19 pm     This is a great idea. I have a recipe that my family has been enjoying for about 10 years now. I was at a choir retreat way back when, and this meal was served. I loved it so much, that I found out the ingredients and when I got home, experiemented, and alas, success!! I didn't know what it was called so we call it: Cheezits Chicken. Cheezits Chicken Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast (amount is up to you) Melted butter or margarine (half to whole cube - depends on amount of chicken you use) Sour cream (again, amount depends on how much chicken used) Crushed Cheezits Crackers (I prefer the Hot & Spicy) (again, amount depends on how much chicken) I use about 2/3 of the bag. Put chicken breasts in baking dish. Pour melted butter/margarine over each piece. Spoon sourcream onto each individual piece - 2TBS to 4TBS depending on personal preference. Then pour crushed cheezits over all. Bake at 350. 40 mins is about the time I bake it for, but again, it depends of amount of chicken you use. I hope you enjoy this. Let me know if you like it or not. If you have any questions, just ask. |
Twiggyish | Friday, November 10, 2000 - 08:18 am     Rich and Creamy Mashed Potatoes 5lbs Potatoes (Red Creamers are good) 1 cup buttermilk (this is key to flavor) 1 stick butter (not margerine) Salt to taste Pepper (optional) Cook potatoes until tender in boiling water. Drain the water. Add butter and mix potatoes with an electric mixer until lumps start to disappear and slowly add buttermilk. We never have leftovers with this recipe. The buttermilk adds a rich flavor unlike bland milk. |

Max | Friday, November 10, 2000 - 01:41 pm     This one is best in hot weather, but even though it's a cold drink, it WILL warm you up! SLUSH 12 ounces Frozen orange juice 2 cups double-strength iced tea made from mix 1-3/4 cups sugar (or to taste) 2 cups Baccardi 151 rum (or other alcohol, if you like) 1 large, freezer-safe container and room for it in your freezer 7UP, Mountain Dew, or Sprite Prepare the orange juice according to package directions. Combine juice, iced tea, sugar, and rum in the large container. Place in freezer. Stir every couple of hours or so until mixture is "slushy" (the alcohol keeps it from freezing completely, but you need to stir to keep the alcohol evenly distributed). Scoop some slush into a large glass. Add soda. Stick a straw in that puppy and slurp! Warning: It might not taste like you're drinking much alcohol, but it will creep up on you! |

Noslonna | Friday, February 02, 2001 - 12:25 pm     This is an excellent recipe a very nice guy gave to me and said I could share. I finally tried it out and my family loved it! His comments are in brackets. Flint's recipe! Italian Sausage-in-a-Thong Casserole (It is a good casserole. My mom first made it for me. heh ) Ingredients: Italian sausage - (as fresh as possible and as spicy as possible. I usually use 4-5 sausages.) Mushrooms - sliced Green pepper - chopped Italian tomatoes - 1 tin Spiral pasta - 3 cups (I think) Parmesan cheese (I use spicy parma plus) Kozza &/or Cheddar cheese for topping - grated How to: *Cook pasta until tender. Set aside. *Brown sausage in skillet. (I tend to make stuff on the fly I do the sausage differently - I remove the casing and partially cook them in a fry pan. I find it makes the sausage go further, plus you aren't fighting to get chunks of sausage and everything else on the fork. ;)) *Add mushrooms and green pepper. *Add tomatoes and Parmesan cheese. *Add cooked cooked pasta, mix together and put into a baking dish. *Top with grated cheese. Bake for about 30-40 minutes at 350° (It is good with some wine ) (It is also good with some garlic bread ) Recipe by Flint - (not copyrighted... yet) ~Quiet you~ |
Ocean_Islands | Sunday, February 25, 2001 - 05:35 pm     Five-Minute Mush Make whole round rice (ok, it does take more than five minutes unless you made it the other day and put it in the fridge). Open a can of Progresso Black Bean soup, pour in a large bowl, and heat it in the microwave. Add a bunch of the round rice, stir, and serve. Amazing but true! You can impress your friends, and vegetarians will love it. Five minute mush! |
