This is our sister-in-law, Kathy's recipe. It is much simpler than our old standard recipe. Ken made it the other night to go on our cobbler. It was delicious.
Homemade Ice Cream ( for a 2- quart freezer)
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup cream
4 1/2 cups milk
2 tsp. vanilla
Put all in ice cream machine and freeze.
For chocolate, add 1/2 cup cocoa powder.
I was looking for a crumble or cobbler recipe online. On our cruise this summer, they offered a warm cobbler with ice cream almost every evening for dessert. So I was searching and was intrigued with this one. I tried it and we really liked it.
These make delicious little appetizer pinwheels.
Ham and Cheese Roll ups
4 flour tortillas
8 oz. cream cheese or 8 oz. soft cream cheese spread
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 T. pickle relish
2 T. green onion, clipped with scissors (opt.)
1/2 lb. deli ham
Mix together the cream cheese and garlic salt, stir in the cheese and relish and green onion if desired. Spread the mixture evenly over the four tortillas. Be sure to spread to the edges. Divide the ham evenly between the four tortillas. Roll up each tightly and wrap each roll in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 4-8 hours. Unwrap and cut off the edges of each roll. Then cut the sandwiches in half and serve or cut in 1/8ths for pinwheel appetizers. Can store in the fridge for 2-3 days.
I was surprised how much we liked this unusual dish. It was really delicious. The leftovers were even good. You can eliminate any vegetables from this list that you don't like and could add any that you want.
Vegetable Casserole
2 bunches brocolli, cut up
1/2 head cauliflower, cut up
Put the cauliflower in some boiling, salted water. Add 2 T. milk. Boil for 2 minutes. Add the broccoli and boil another 2 minutes. Use a strainer spoon to put the vegetables in a prepared 9x13 pan.
In a fry pan sauté:
1 onion, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1/2 red pepper, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1 box mushrooms, sliced
When soft, add to the baking pan.
Slice several grape tomatoes and add in.
Mix together in a bowl:
4 eggs
5 T. oil
1 cup flour
Salt and Pepper to taste
When well mixed, add 2 1/2 cups milk and mix well.
Cut up fresh parsley and mix in. Pour this mixture over the veggies. Grate about 1 cup cheese and sprinkle on top. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes.
Our oven broke. I needed to make a dessert that I could bake in my crockpot. I found this recipe online. I make Pumpkin Cobbler every year, but had never tried it in the crockpot. It was pretty good, but my crockpot cooks too fast, so even on low it burns on the edges. So there were some burned flecks in it. But it was still good. It sure smelled yummy while baking!
Crockpot Pumpkin Cobbler
Mix together in a large bowl:
3 eggs, beaten
1 large can pumpkin
1 can evaporated milk
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
Mix well and use a spatula to pour into a sprayed crockpot. Turn it on low heat.
Sprinkle on top:
1 box yellow cake mix
4 Tablespoons brown sugar
3/4 cup melted butter
Toffee bits, if desired.
Cook on low for 3-4 hours until cake is flaky. Serve with whipped cream on top.
This recipe is a keeper! It was so delicious and so easy to put together. My husband was CRAZY about this dinner!
