How to Make Apple Brown Betty – a Winter Favorite
This is probably my favorite winter dessert. I look forward to the end of hot summer days when I can turn on my oven and make Apple Brown Betty. It’s an old recipe, first published in 1864. I’ve been making it since 2011 when I won an award for it. I love the fact that it’s very simple to make and with the help of some tools, in the oven in under 10 minutes.
Quick Instant Pot Chili Con Carne
There’s nothing like a “Bowl of Red” on a cold day, but who has time to let Chili sit on the stove for hours and hours, not to mention having to soak the beans overnight. Lordy, that’s a two-day operation!
Healthy Spicy Meatloaf with Wheat Germ
Healthy, Spicy Meatloaf
I really love Lula Kabob. I was looking at some recipes and found out one of the main ingredients is grated onions that are pressed through a sieve to remove their liquid. It occurred to me this might be a good idea for my meatloaf. Usually, I make meatloaf with the vegetables chopped, but still large enough to see them. It’s good, but I wanted to experiment. The experiment was successful. The meatloaf had a more consistent flavor and texture. This will be my method of making meatloaf from now on.
The other thing that I have started adding to my meatloaf is wheat germ. It has a nutty flavor and is very good with yogurt and honey. It’s also very healthy for you. It’s an excellent source of vitamin E, A, and folic acid as well as a fiber-rich source of high-quality non-animal protein. If you like refined white flour and are missing the benefits of whole grain, this is a great way to supplement your diet – all that nutrition in something that tastes really good. However, if you are truly gluten intolerant, stay away as wheat germ does have gluten.
Street Dogs – Hot Dogs with Bacon and Peppers
Have the famous Street Dogs at home – jumbo franks wrapped in bacon with sauted jalapeno, onions and bell peppers. Have them with corn!
Turkey Tetrazzini
This is something that I really love, and when I don’t have leftover turkey, I have been known to go to the store and get the frozen one – you know which one I mean. But, this dish is really best fresh, made from the leftover turkey at your feast.
I have found other recipes that called for peas, no sherry, white wine, etc. Well, it’s just not the same thing! This is the Turkey Tetrazzini you have been looking for, that you remember, that you crave, the one with celery, mushrooms and sherry cream sauce. You can make a lot of this, put it into individual serving trays and freeze it for some night when you don’t want to cook, but you want something comforting.
