Berry Cheesecake Trifle

2 (8-ounce) packages low fat cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup low fat sour cream
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 (12-ounce) container frozen low-fat whipped topping, thawed
1 angel food cake, torn into bite sized pieces
1 1/2 quarts fresh strawberries, sliced
1 1/2 quarts fresh blueberries
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1. In large bowl, cream together cream cheese and powdered sugar; add sour cream, vanilla, and almond extract. Set aside.
2. Fold whipped topping into cream cheese mixture. Add cake pieces and fold lightly, set aside.
3. Combine strawberries and sugar.
4. Layer in large glass bowl starting with strawberries, then cake pieces, then blueberries. Continue layering until finished, 3 or 4 layers is good (depends on your bowl). Finish with berries on top and garnish with additional whipped topping if you want. Cover and chill well. Garnish with additional strawberries and blueberries just before serving, if desired.
Makes 24 servings.

Note: I prefer using low fat cream cheese, sour cream, and whipped topping instead of fat-free. I much prefer the taste, but if you like, fat free may be used. Or you may use half of each. I prefer to bake the angel food cake (instead of buying one) because it is much softer and lighter. I usually use a mix. This trifle may be made with all strawberries, all blueberries, and it is good with fresh peaches. A peaches and blueberry mixture is good too.

A friend of mine sent me this recipe, and she makes them. She's never baked them in the microwave. I doubt if I would either because I wouldn't bake just one, but it might be worth a try.

Pour off all but 2 T. fat. Add onions & garlic to fat in skillet. Cook & stir until onion is tender. Remove from heat, stir in bacon, sauerkraut, mashed potatoes & parsley. Drop by rounded teaspoonful onto waxed paper lined baking sheet. Gently form ball shapes. Cover with waxed paper or plastic wrap, refrigerate until firm or overnight. Dip sauerkraut balls in eggs. Roll in crushed corn flakes. Heat oil to 375ÃÂ°, fry until golden brown about ÃÂ½ minute. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot. Can be fried 24 hours in advance & reheat in 400ÃÂ° oven about 10 minutes. We fry, cool, and freeze. This is my MIL's recipe for Sauerkraut Balls. We don't put the garlic in them. The Cheesy Bacon Chicken Tater Tot Bake is in the crockpot, smaller version, and with frozen hash browns instead of tater tots. The convenience store was out of tater tots. Note: My 3 quart crock pot is full to the top with only 2 chicken breasts, and not all of the cheese. We will be eating at 8:00! Oh well, I will be snacking in the mean time! Tami

I also have a Jambalaya recipe that I concocted several years ago at a family gathering. I think there were 20 some people there, so the recipe as I've recorded it is rather large. (with nearly 7 lbs of meat!) I prefer it done this way, with the rice prepared separately, rather than cooking the rice with the rest of the dish, since if there are leftovers the rice absorbs all of the liquid, making the rice gluey and the rest of the dish dry. Also since several members of the group didn't want it too spicy, the amount of red pepper, cayenne pepper and tobasco were much less than I would otherwise have used, but adding tobasco after it is served works very well. JAMBALAYA 2 lb Chicken Breast (3/4" cubes) 1 lb Honey Ham (1/2" dice) 1 lb Hot-Italian Sausage (de-skinned and broken into pieces) 2/3 lb Andouille-style smoked sausage 2 lb uncooked shrimp (cleaned, de-shelled, and de-tailed, cut into thirds) 2 large sweet yellow onions chopped into 3/4" square pieces 2 red bell peppers (remove stems, seeds and membranes and cut into 1" by 1" pieces) 2 yellow bell peppers 4 cups of rice 2 large cans diced tomatoes 1 15 oz can tomato paste Olive oil 10 cloves garlic 2 tsp red pepper flakes 1/2 tsp black pepper blend (ground) 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper 4 shakes Tobasco sauce 1 tsp thyme 1 tbsp chopped parsley In one large pan, cook onion in olive oil, add thyme and 3 cloves of garlic (chopped) until onion starts to turn translucent, then add bell peppers and cook another 10 minutes or so. In a different large pan, cook chicken and hot Italian sausage until both are lightly browned and mostly cooked. Empty both pans into large pot. Stir in tomatoes (including water from tomato cans) and the tomato paste. Bring to a low boil and reduce heat to a simmer and stir well. In the chicken pan, cook Andouille and ham over medium heat for 10 minutes, then add to large pot. Crush remaining garlic and other spices except parsley into large pot to suit taste. Cook rice separately while continuing to simmer large pot. When rice is done, remove large pot from heat and add shrimp stirring until it is cooked. Serve over rice, adding tobasco to taste, top with a pinch of parsley.

I have been making the orange sorbet a lot.....delicious. I tried the berry but didn't take the time to strain out all the seeds but it was still very tasty. I have a Cuisinart duo ice cream maker which uses bowls pre-frozen. It is important to let the fruit mixture chill thoroughly before putting into the ice cream maker. Berry Sorbet 15 oz. berries 1 cup sugar pinch of salt 1/2 cup water 2 Tbsp lemon juice 1 Tbsp vodka Pulse berries, sugar and salt together in food processor until combines. About 15 pulses. With processor running add lemon juice, water and vodka and continue processing until sugar is dissolved, about 1 minute. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl and refrigerated until very cold. Transfer mixture to ice cream machine and churn until it resembles soft serve ice cream. Pack in a tight container, pressing down to remove air pockets and freeze until firm. (At least three hours.) Orange sorbet Omit berries. Reduce sugar by 1 Tbsp. and add 2 tsps grated orange zest to food processor with sugar and salt. Omit water and reduce lemon juice to 1 Tbsp. Add two cups orange juice to processor with lemon juice. Lemon sorbet Omit berries. Increase sugar to 1 1/4 cups and water to 1 1/2 cups. Add 2 tsps. lemon zest to food processor with sugar and salt. Increase lemon juice to 1/2 cup. Peach sorbet Substitute 2.5 pounds of peaches, peeled, halved, pitted and chopped coarsely in place of berries. Reduce sugar by 1 Tbsp.. In place of vodka, use rum or peach schnapps. Mango sorbet Substitute 3 mangos, peeled, pitted and chopped coarse for berries. Reduce sugar to 3/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp. Pineapple sorbet Substitute 1 small pineapple, peeled, cored and coarsely chopped in place of berries. Reduce sugar to 3/4 cup and lemon juice to 1 Tbsp.

I'm making this recipe for dinner tonight. It's one of my favorites. I use a cheap cut labeled 'sizzle steaks' but as long as they aren't cooked too much, they turn out great.

Beef Kabobs With Oriental Sauce

Â¾ cup cooking or salad oil
Â¼ cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 Â½ teaspoons ground ginger
1 Â½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 Â½ teaspoon finely chopped green onion
1 Â½ pounds beef loin sirloin steaks, boneless, cut into 1 Â½ -inch cubes

1. Combine oil, soy sauce, honey, vinegar, ginger, garlic powder and chopped green onion in a large shallow dish. Add the meat cubes; turn until all pieces are coated. Set in refrigerator to marinate for at least 4 hours, turning several times.
2. Remove meat from marinade with a slotted spoon and drain. Reserve marinade for basting.
3. Thread three meat cubes onto each 6-inch skewer. I used long metal skewers. Place meat cubes close together for rare; separate cubes slightly for well done.
4. Grill kabobs on a greased grill about 3 inches from coals, turning often for even browning. Baste frequently with marinade. I didn't baste. Grilling period ranges from 10 to 20 minutes, or until meat is done to the desired stage.

About 4 servings.

I'm new to this forum but not GW. Here is an extremely simple but yummy recipe. It sounds kind of strange, but it's great and even better left over and zapped in the microwave.

Sausage Rice Casserole

1 lb regular Sausage, crumbled, browned and drained
1 c. Uncle Ben's long cooking Rice, uncooked
1 c. thinly sliced Carrots
1 can Chicken Broth
1/4 c. water

(The rice comes out extremely fluffy!)

Spray medium size casserole with Pam. Spread uncooked Rice over it. Spread carrots over Rice. Pour Chicken Broth over Rice and Carrots. Pour water on top of all.

Cover tightly with foil, bake at 375 for 30 min. Take out of oven and stir. Put back in oven and cook for an additional 30 min.

Yummy!

Sausage and Cabbage
2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 lb. link sausage (all natural chicken sausage with no antibotics if you can find it) I used Italian sweet, casings removed
1 head of fresh, tender cabbage (organic if you can get it), chopped
1 medium sweet onion. chopped
salt and pepper to taste
a hit of cayenne pepper

Chop the sausage into 1" pieces. Brown the sausage in a skillet with the olive oil. When sausage is browned well, add in the onions and cook until tender. Then add in the cabbag and seasonings. Cook until the cabbage wilts down. Serve immediately.
