    I'm going to try the baked potatoe soup sounds yummy!
    Question...do you take the peel off potatoe?
    Thanks for the recipe
    Karie

    You can or you don't have
    You can or you don't have to. It will be good either way. The peelings pretty much just fall off anyway if you leave them on. I hope you like it. Let me know if you do!

    Salmon Quiche
    I got this from a sister on here, made it, and, loved it. For those that like salmon, try it.

    This is so good and easy to make. a can of salmon can be substituted with shrimp or crab
    To make life easier buy a pre-made pie crust.
    Filling: 1/2 med onion chopped, 2 TBS butter, salt and pepper, tsp chopped or minced garlic, chopped parsley, 4 eggs, 2 cups milk )half n half is best. 1 cup or more drained salmon or shrimp, 1 cup grated cheese.
    chop the onion and saute it in butter. Add salt and pepper to taste, a little chopped garlic or garlic powder and parsley. Remove from heat. Beat the eggs and milk together lightly. Cube salmon and stir into onion mixture; then add it all to eggs and milk. Add the cheese and pour mixture into pie shell. Bake at 350 for approx 30 min, could be a little longer.

    This is a recipe that Re had posted to an earlier post!

    I've made this watergate salad Noel more times than I want to remember. LOL It is very easy and always a big hit. One thing to point out about it, with some allergic to nuts, I always put a couple of large nut pieces on the top so everyone can see it has nuts in it.


    Just a tip!

    Love this watergate salad

    My Mother in Law's Pork Soup
    This is easy to make and tastes good on cold rainy days, like today.

    Cook 4-5 pork chops in chicken broth (about 4 cups worth). When they're done, take them out of the broth, cut off the fat and the bones, and put bite-size pieces of the meat back in.
    Shred 1/2 cabbage and cook until done.
    Serve with salt and pepper and rice.

    Super Bowl Cheeseball
    I know it's not super bowl time but this can be shaped any way you like.

    Super Bowl Party Cheeseball

    4oz jar of Old English Cheese Spread
    4oz jar of Olive and Pimento Spread
    8oz Cream Cheese
    Ritz Crackers
    Stick Pretzels

    Mix all 3 cheeses, chill them in order to make shaping easier
    You can roll this in some crushed ritz (crush finely) to make handling and shaping possible.
    Shape like a football on a large plate, this is super easy.
    Use your stick pretzels to make the laces :)

    This is the best Cheeseball recipe I've ever tried, mm mm good.

    Enjoy,
    Kari

    Hey Kari! I made this last
    Hey Kari! I made this last weekend as we had some friends out to watch football and I needed lots of snacks. LOL It was a hit! Thank you and how are you doing Kari?

    Strawberry Basil Sorbet with Shortbread Cookies
    I was reading through all the yummy recipes wondering what I could share. So here is what I came up with -

    Since I make a lot of ice cream here is a recipe for Strawberry Basil Sorbet and shortbread cookies. Yeah, I know the sorbet is non-fat and healthy but the shortbread cookies can clog your arteries if you don’t have some restraint ‘cause they are addictive.


    4 cups of washed and chopped strawberries
    1/3 – ½ cup of sugar (soft brown works well)
    1 cup of finely chopped basil.


    Directions –
    *sprinkle the sugar on the strawberries and mix well. Let stand at room temperature for at least 20 mins.
    *Place the strawberry and sugar mix in a blender and add the basil. Puree as much as possible.
    *put in ice cream maker until firm or desired consistency, transfer to a plastic container and put in freezer.
    If you don’t have an ice cream maker then put it in a plastic container. Leave in the freezer and every 40 – 60 mins, take a fork and mash it up as finely as possible.


    Shortbread cookies

    I cup of softened butter
    ½ cup of sugar (brown also works)
    2 cups of flour
    Pinch of salt.


    Directions –
    *Cream the butter and sugar together.
    *Add the flour sifted and the pinch of salt.
    *mix together for about 3 mins. Kneading works. You should end up with a soft dough.
    *Take the dough and roll into a log. Slice about ½ inch thick.
    *Place on a cookie sheet covered with parchment and prick. Sprinkle a little extra sugar on top if you like.
    *Bake at 325 degress for about 20 mins.

    Mariam, both of these sound
    Mariam, both of these sound delicious! I don't have an ice cream maker, so, thanks for letting us know we can just use a plastic container.

    Making those shortbread cookies for sure, addictive or not! LOL

    Thanks!

    ... cool refreshing sweet .. pick me up
    It is still hot, as well as humid here in Southern/Northern California ..


    Freeze grapes -- medium colors are the best.

    I wash bunches, then cut them up and place in small baggies. After dinner, before
    bed when you have the urge for a sweet treat --- grab a bag out of the freeze and
    enjoy the sweetness of a frozen treat without the hundred of calories.


    Vicki Sam

    I started doing this
    I started doing this recently, and I really enjoy eating grapes this way. What got me started was my not being able to keep up with my stash of grapes before some would go bad. So, I froze grapes (off the vine) to keep them good.
    ===============
    (Looks like this did not end up where I thought it would.)
