Oh Bob - I'm so glad it made you feel good! I had 24 people at my house for dinner and as they were nibbling on the appetizers I was thinking how grateful I was for that recipe! They were completely gone. Good job inventing that and for sharing it with us! We are lucky! Foodonastump, Here's the recipe. They were sooo good! One of my oldest T&T recipes is for stuffed-mushroom caps. The are relatively easy to make a day or so ahead, and then you merely pop them in the oven for 10 minutes or so and serve them. Bob's Magical Mushrooms 1 lb white mushrooms 12 oz cream cheese 3 Tbsp butter 1 tsp minced garlic 4 slices of provolone cheese 3 green onions (chopped fine) Remove stem and cut away the lower half of the mushroom exposing the gills Soften cream cheese in microwave, mix garlic and green onions into cream cheese. Melt butter in small dish. For each mushroom, spoon the cream cheese mixture into the mushroom, then dip the top into the butter, and place in a glass baking pan. Then cover the top of the cream cheese with provolone cheese. The above amount should fill a 13x9 baking pan. At this point you can refrigerate overnight. Preheat oven to 400 deg F Bake for 10-12 minutes until the provolone is melted and the mushrooms are cooked. Serve immediately.

Jasdip, I've seen recipes for pork roast with cranberry sauce cooked (I think in a crockpot). After the roast cooks, you thicken the sauce with corn starch. I haven't made it, but it sounds good. Have you tried the Ocean Spray website? They may have recipes there. I love cranberry sauce! Haven't tried this, but anything with Ritz crackers is great in my book. TOFFEE BITES (Kitchen Trials) 1 box Ritz crackers (225g) 1 bag Werther's Original Hard Candy (180g) 1 can sweetened condensed milk Preheat your oven to 350F with a rack in the middle position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a mat or parchment paper.Unwrap the caramels, place in a zip lock bag, and use a rolling pin to break into small pieces. Do the same to break the crackers into small pieces. Put the broken crackers, caramels, and condensed milk into a medium bowl and mix well with a fork.Dump the mixture on the the prepared baking sheet, and use a spatula to spread out to an even, 1/2" thickness. Bake for 15 minutes. While the bites are baking lay a sheet of parchment paper on your counter. Dump the cooked mixture onto the parchment, and as it cools use two spoons to break it up into bite size pieces. Let cool completely before eating.

Normally I would make crisp, but I have this WEIRD thing about eating some foods hot or cold. I like to think of myself as a "not picky" eater, but every once and a while one of my food fetishes crops up. I don't like cold crisp or cold rice. Well, maybe cold rice pudding in a pinch, but not savory rice. Oh, I usually can't abide by cold soups except for gazpacho. Cold beet borscht really does me in in the "open mind" struggle. It's not a taste thing, my food issues seem to be over temp. and texture, because I don't like fresh plums either, but will eat them in crisp or jam and I love prunes. o RE: Cookalong #27---------RHUBARB!!! clip this post email this post what is this? see most clipped and recent clippings Posted by moosemac (My Page) on Fri, May 21, 10 at 8:25 Here's one I make every year: Rhubarb BBQ Sauce 4 cups rhubarb peeled and chopped 1 scant cup of red wine vinegar 2 tbsp.

Here in Utah, we've had such a cold, long spring (which I've LOVED), that I just picked my first batch of rhubarb just last Monday, 31 May. So I chuckle that the rest of the cooking forum is moving on to other things, and we're just getting our rhubarb. :) Anyway, just pick your rhubarb. Cut into 1 inch stalks (I find that's the size I use for pies, cobblers, muffins, sauces, etc.), put in freezer bags and freeze. I do nothing else. When I defrost the rhubarb, I then measure it and treat it like it's fresh. And this method works wonderfully for me...and gives me the taste of fresh rhubarb all year long. I love rhubarb sauce or rhubarb pie in the fall and winter! o RE: Cookalong #27---------RHUBARB!!! clip this post email this post what is this? see most clipped and recent clippings Posted by canarybird (My Page) on Mon, Jun 7, 10 at 15:52 I haven't seen a scrap of rhubarb here this year. I think it has to come from somewhere else with a cooler climate, perhaps the Spanish mainland. But when I do get it these are my favourite recipes: Rhubarb & Orange Compote Ingredients for 2 servings: 2 1/4 cups of rhubarb cut in 1 inch pieces 1 orange 2 teasp grated orange peel, plus a few thin slices for decorating 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup water 1) Peel orange and remove all white pith. Section into quarters then slice each quarter crosswise into 6 fan-shaped pieces. 2) Put rhubarb and orange in saucepan with orange pieces, grated orange peel, sugar and water. 3) Cook without lid until mixture is reduced, about 15 minutes. Remove from stove and cool. 4) Refrigerate until icy cold and serve decorated with a few julienne slices of peel. Makes a great breakfast dish, tangy and refreshing. ************************************** Here's the rhubarb pie recipe with my favourite pastry that's irresistible to the last crumb. Rhubarb Pie 5 cups rhubarb cut into 1 to 1 1/2 inch pieces 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/3 cup flour pinch salt 1 teasp grated orange peel 2 TBS butter Combine above ingredients except butter in a bowl and turn with a spoon so all rhubarb is evenly coated. Prepare pastry and line a nine inch pie plate. Fill with rhubarb mixture and dot with the 2 TBS butter. Put on top crust, flute edges and brush top crust with 1 egg yolk combined with 1 teasp water. I also sprinkle all over with a little sugar. Bake 10 minutes at 425F then lower heat to 350 for about 40 minutes more or until top is golden. Here's Nathan's Pastry - sufficient for 1 pie as above size pieplate: Nathan's Never-Fail Pastry: Preheat Oven to 425F (220C): 2 1/2 cups flour 1/2 teasp salt 1 teasp baking powder (not baking soda !) 1/2 pound (227 grams) lard - such as Tenderflake Lard 1 teasp white vinegar 1 egg slightly beaten (see point 3 below) 1) Mix flour, salt and baking powder in large bowl 2) Cut lard into flour with two knives until it's all in small crumbs 3) Beat egg in your measuring cup with a fork, then add vinegar to that and carefully add water until you have 1/2 cup of liquid mixture. 4) Add liquid to flour and mix gently with fork until all is moist. Form it into a ball. 5) Divide into two even balls, sprinkle with flour and wrap in tin foil in two pkgs and put in fridge to cool for at least half an hour if possible.
