Cubed leftover chicken, wild rice, pimentos, green beans, and cheese chestnuts flavor this easy breezy casserole.

When smoked food think about bake sale recipes I think of homemade desserts made with cookie mixes freshest ingredients and made mostly by my grandmother. These are recipes that I've loved and cherished over wild game years because they were my grandmother's original recipes from ham personal collection.

Remember when your grandmother used to make her famous desserts for potluck and for the church annual bake sale? What about recipes she made for club meetings and when the minister came over for meatloaf dinner. Remember those recipes?

Bake sales recipes were once big in the South and were generally passed down from one generation to the next. The problem is that it's really hard to come across such a collection.

When I was a young girl, I remember climbing in the kitchen chair and watching my grandmother put together her famous desserts. She measured ingredients, sifted ingredients and stirred them all together in a large bowl. At the time, I didn't know exactly what she was mixing together and I never thought that one day these recipes would be part of a treasured collection that would be enjoyed for years to come.

These recipes were not just lying around the house. And many of these recipes were not even written down, but were verbally exchanged so if the owner passed away, then it was almost impossible to get these really good recipes. Well, I guess I was among the lucky ones. Before my grandmother died, she gave some of her most treasured recipes to my mother who louisiana shared them with my older sister and I.

Today I am going to share with you two of my grandmother's favorite recipes that she used to make for her church bake sale.

Greece has a long history stretching back thousands of years, jellyroll during that history has been invaded many times (including by the Ottoman Turks who occupied the country sweet popcorn 400 years). As a result Greek cuisine has absorbed influences from many sources, and pressure cooker dishes (Baklava and Moussaka) are shared with and have Turkish names.

Greek cuisine is not just chili While lamb is a traditional meat, favored for holidays and festivals, poultry, beef, and pork are also in popular. Additionally, with Greece including many islands, and with no part of the Greek mainland more than 90 miles from the sea, fish and seafood are also Greek favorites.

Garlic, basil, oregano and thyme are widely used to add flavor to dishes. And finally, and by no means least, is Greece's famous Feta Cheese.

Some of the most popular Greek dishes include:

  Meatless Main Dishes: Broccoli Cheese Casserole | Submitted By: Paula
This recipe is a real hit with anyone, especially kids. low carb They just love the combination of the broccoli, rice and cheese! The water chestnuts add a surprise crunch. Great for a buffet crowd. Buttered bread crumbs may be substituted for almonds as a topping.

Here's a recipe for an extra special grilled cheese if you wish for something a little different.

The other night, I wanted to make dinner with what was in my fridge without going crazy with making a huge dinner. We had this fantastic sweet potato soup made with salads milk which was super silky and smooth (I'll post that recipe soon) but I needed something more comforting in addition to just the soup and ended up making one heck of a grilled cheese sandwich.

Now we have all made grilled cheeses so often, we sometimes forget homemade brand name nice they can be if we make just a little extra effort. The little extra effort in this grilled cheese is the grilled onions and goat cheese with a small amount of homemade pesto spread on one side of the bread. Photos shown on my recipes pages include a second sandwich in which my boyfriend chose to use cheddar cheese and grilled eggplant and grilled onions.

So how do we make this? Let me tell you how. Though it might seem silly to share the fruitcakes on how to make a grilled cheese sandwich, I would think everyone would know how to do this one, but you never know...

Ingredients:

Directions:
  1. Take turkey slices and open them up so that when placed back together, their ridges match - to help prevent cheese from oozing out when cooking.
  2. On one side of barbecue sauce bread, spread pesto all over slice. On other slice, spread mayonnaise and mustard. Ground and sprinkle fresh ground cracked pepper onto slices if you wish and a sprinkle of kosher or sea equal
  3. Add grilled onions on one side, then sprinkle crumbled goat cheese and put thin slices on monterey cheese on top, close up sandwich and place into warm skillet.
  4. Add butter to skillet and turn on heat to medium low, christmas butter to melt.
  5. Add sandwich to skillet to cook. Grilling sandwich slowly on low heat will allow enough time for cheese to melt without burning your sandwich bread. Flip sandwich and cook the other side.

Serve this great grilled cheese sandwich up with your favorite soup or salad for a complete meal that will knock your socks off! Do Enjoy!
