I can't wait for summer squash to be in season again! This is a new recipe for me, but if there is a topping of Ritz crackers involved, I'm in!! (I will mix them with a little butter since it isn't decadent enough.) SQUASH CASSEROLE (Add A Pinch) 2 tablespoons butter 4 cups sliced yellow squash 1 medium onion, chopped 2 eggs 1 cup grated cheddar cheese 1 cup milk 2 tablespoons butter (in addition to the two above) ü teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional) ý teaspoon salt ý teaspoon ground black pepper 1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed (I will toss with a little melted butter) Preheat oven to 350ú F. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in medium skillet or saute pan over medium-low heat. Add squash and onions and cook until tender. To a large bowl, add eggs and lightly whisk. Add cheese and milk and whisk into egg until well-combined. Add cooked squash and onions to egg mixture and stir well to combined. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in skillet used to cook squash and onions. Add to squash casserole mixture. Add cayenne pepper, if using, along with salt and pepper. Stir well to combine. Spray a 9ÃÂ13 casserole dish with cooking spray and pour squash casserole mixture into the baking dish. Top evenly with crushed Ritz crackers. Place in preheated oven and bake 45 minutes, or until top has lightly browned and casserole does not âÂÂjiggleâ when the dish is moved.Allow to sit for about 3 minutes before serving. Serves 12.

There is a distinct difference between genetically engineered crops and natural hybrids and it would be well worth the efforts of those who are insulting those who are warning people that all frankenfoods are highly dangerous. There are German studies and even Monsanto's own studies which point a great problem with genetic modified foods. To not get too technical, but it has to do with the base amino acid structure the body does not recognize. I would suggest people notice how many people have the 'new diseases' of auto immune from lupus, MG, inflamed bowel, arthritis etc.... as examples that the body is having great difficulty with these grains and oils. Ask your vet or pet food dealer how many 'allergic' pets are showing up now to food. It is because of the hybrid corn some animals can not deal with it. Just because you eat something and you don't end up in the emergency ward does not mean that it is not going to affect your body sooner than later. Studies now indicate diabetes is from an inflamed pancreas. Once again not inflamation is the key disease and it links back to all of these genetically modified crops. For goodness sake people, I deal in agriculture and genetics. There are crops like Roundup corn, soybeans and canola oil where Monsanto has engineered a crop where you can spray Roundup, the same thing you put on your lawns and a herbicide which kills every plant, but it will not affect these crops. You are eating in mass now crops that a poison will not kill. Some of these genetic crops have trace genes of even animal DNA so as to make them more resiliant. That is not natural and if you ever ask the growing number of sick people they will tell you this is not funny as they are dying slow miserable deaths. My research hints that there is a symbiotic relationship between the amino acid hybrids, bacteria and a fungal infection. That is why so many skin diseases are manifesting including boils. If like in MG that a person's lining off their nerve cells is being eaten off so the nervous system shorts out to the fact if complete corn diets are feed cattle that it will burn them out and kill them, should perhaps convince the experts on here claiming all of this is nonsense. This is not about transfats. This is about a genetic engineered mutation that is being fed into the meat chain, the pets you have and you. Do a forensic test on your hair and it will not come back diverse. It will come back that you are corn due the huge amounts of it in all foods and if it is not corn, it is canola oil adding to the problem. I have watched a black lab and an irish setter dog develop arthritis, stumbling, seizures and bloody stools. When the diet was switched to a rice base or no corn, they both recovered and healed. People and their pets need to eat correctly and stop buying this stuff as once that happens, the corporations will loose money and won't push it onto consumers any more. Farmers are only using now what the market demands. Start demanding natural grains, natural beef, chicken, turkey and pork and vegetables not being fertilized in Mexico using human feces (that is where the spinach and jalepino/tomatoe problems came from is human sewage waste and not swine as people were lied to.) and please stop eating those tons of preservatives they have in everything. You don't have to be vegan as that is just as dangerous in the genetic plants they are pushing (get a clue if an insect won't eat it in the field perhaps you shouldn't eat it either.). As far as hunza, it is molasses bread and molasses is still good for you. It covers up the strong taste of buckwheat and if you ever ate millet flower you would cringe it is so bad. (Millet is very good boiled like oatmeal. It just is not a good flour as it is strong.) The link provided is a natural help site for people who are having problems and the modern 'cures' are only making them more ill. There are no side effects to good food except health. You can quote me on that. God bless. Here is a link that might be useful: Earth Clinic

I am suspicious of this offer - The website has the EXACT SAME information in the EXACT SAME words, except that it was supposedly from Sweden, as the e-mail I got from a publishing company in New York State. It is also $55 against $7 from the people in New York. That would mean that 2 different "journalists" in 2 different countries, interviewing 2 different couples, got the same interview, and wrote it up in the EXACT same words. Somebody is ripping somebody off ....

I am making these for Christmas eve. I hope they turn out good. Cranberry-Eggnog Muffins Recipe courtesy Food Network Magazine Prep Time:30 min Cook Time:30 min Serves: 12 muffins For the Muffins: Cooking spray 1 cup dried cranberries, roughly chopped 1/2 cup rum or apple juice 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 stick unsalted butter, melted 1 1/2 cups eggnog 2 large eggs, at room temperature 1 tablespoon vanilla extract For the Topping: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, melted 3/4 teaspoon salt 1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar Prepare the muffins: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Mist a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. Warm the cranberries and rum in a small saucepan over medium heat, then remove from the heat and let steep 5 minutes. Drain. Whisk the flour, baking powder, brown sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the butter, eggnog, eggs and vanilla in another bowl. Gently fold into the flour mixture. (The batter will be lumpy; do not overmix.) Fold in the cranberries. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Make the topping: Mix the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, butter, salt and brown sugar in a bowl with your fingertips until it looks like wet sand. Sprinkle generously over the batter. Bake until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool slightly in the pan, then carefully remove to a rack.
