oven pancake

We love oven pancakes! They are so..........stinkin easy to make! Apple oven pancake is my favorite and since I do all the cooking, that's the one I choose! So here it is, my recipe: preheat oven to 450 degrees, you need an iron skillet. While oven is preheating, cut up one apple and add 4 tablespoons of butter in the skillet, place skillet into oven and get this pan screaming hot(be careful no to burn the butter and apples) about 5 minutes. Meanwhile in food processor, 4 eggs(large), 1/2 cup of milk and 1/4c. of flour. Blend all together and pour into skillet, place back in the oven for 15 minutes, then turn down oven to 375 degrees for another 10 minutes. This will puff up and looks so pretty! Serves 2-4, depending how hungry you are! Blessings!

eggs

I don't eat too many eggs just because, but the other day(about 2 weeks ago), I tried the egg in hole recipe! I used Vienna bread from the bakery and clarified butter(that someone gave me a tub of), and what a great breakfast! Gordon loved it as he loves fried eggs(me,not so much)! So, that's what's for breakfast for tomorrow! Do you like eggs? How do you make them: fried, scrambled, 3 minutes or poached? My Father-in-law loved 4 minute eggs on toast! Blessings!

ham and potato soup

I made potato and ham soup for supper! I'm not a big ham fan, but I like it every now and again! So, with a lot of leftovers, it has become soup! I'm also so excited to have 8 followers!! You guys are awfully quiet, no comments or ideas??? So, have a great evening and try the recipe: 6 small potatoes-washed and diced, 1 small onion-diced, 3 carrots washed and diced, 4 slices of ham diced, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 cup of milk. In a large soup pot add the oil, diced veggies and ham. I did sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour over the veggies/ once the veggies were soft, then added the milk, plus 1/2 cup of water. Blessings!

casserole

I made a chicken noodle casserole on Tuesday for supper and tonight was leftover night with that casserole as the entree! This casserole was nothing special, but one thing I did different was use carb free noodles! They are great, roasted garlic flavored! What is your favorite casserole? I grew up eating alot of hamburgers and tuna casserole! I really don't like tuna casserole as an adult! Probably ate it too many times! What did you eat as a kid that you can't eat now??? I'm putting up a photo of my daughter-in-laws cat, Sprinkles, beautiful cat!

colds

I have a cold and my head hurts! So nothing tastes good and I don't feel like cooking! Poor Gordon!! Anyway, I was talking to a friend today and she told me to put Vicks on my feet with a pair of socks, suppose to help, so I did it, nothing yet! I did however make baking powder biscuits to have with turkey and gravy like chicken ala king, but with turkey! Gordon ate it, so it must have been okay! Do you have a go to recipe when you are sick? What do you make when you need comfort food?? Mashed potatoes, mac 'n cheese, soup or pizza??? Blessings!

burgers

Lately, we have been on a hamburger kick for supper! I made olive burgers the other night, which is cheeseburgers with a mounds of stuffed olives chopped up and placed on top(YUM)! Last night, it was good old cheeseburgers! I really love Italian burgers made with Italian sausage and ground meat, then put a slice of mozzarella cheese on top! You could top this with pizza sauce and call it a pizza burger, the ideas are endless! What is your favorite burger?? Blessings!
