    I have been craving lasagna for the last month and a half.

    I saw this recipe on the web and tried it.


    http://www.kitchendaily.com/recipe/b...lasagna-141256

    I made a few changes to the recipe- I added some sliced mushrooms, thinly sliced zucchini and ricotta cheese.

    It was easy, fairly quick to put together and pretty tasty.

    I would add a touch of Italian seasoning to the sauce. The canned stuff was kind weak.

    have fun.

    I tried a new recipe yesterday. I like it a lot. It's called:
    Cranberry Salad

    One 8 oz can crushed pineapple - drained
    one can whole berry cranberry sauce - I used this but and going to make it with the jelled type next time as I don't care for the seeds.
    2 cups mini-marshmallows
    2 cups whipped topping - I used half of an 8oz container - thawed

    mix the cranberry sauce and pineapple together, add the marshmallows. Then fold in the whipped topping.
    Chill for 2 hours before serving.

    If you add chopped walnuts, it would taste just like a dish my step mom made for Thanksgiving every year. I like it either way but better without them.

    Spaghetti Pie

    http://www.recipe.com/spaghetti-pie-1/

    I made this last night and it turned out awesomely good. I'm doing low carb so I used Dreamfields low carb spaghetti.

    I used a whole egg instead of egg whites and ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese because that is what I had in the fridge.

    I didn't have any mushrooms or green peppers so I didn't put them in. I used a can of fire roasted diced tomatoes instead of the tomato sauce and sort of smashed them down a bit.

    I had leftovers for lunch today and it was even better than last night.

    Sort of fun to make too.

    and I've made this too -
    its good and convenient and can be made to suit your taco taste. I cheated and used the Steam fresh rice bags the first time I fixed it.

    Philly cheese steak

    One of the finalists on "Next Food Network Star" yesterday made a Philadelphia cheese steak sandwich wrapped in a burrito. It looked delicious- gooey, messy, and yummy

    Which got me thinking: What's on a Philly cheese steak sandwich besides the steak? (Bell pepper? Onion? Tomato? I think I'd like it with a slice of tomato under the melted cheese.) What kind of cheese do you usually find on the sandwich-- is it cheese whiz or can I use real cheese? Do you toast the roll first? Is it on a hoagie roll, or can I make it with good Chicago Italian bread? Do they use a meat cutter to get the steak that thinly sliced? The finalist's wrap looked really good to me and I think it would be easy to prepare, but I'd also like to have it as a traditional sandwich some time.

    I'll just be over here in the kitchen making... Chicago style hot dogs! I know what to put on those!

    Thank you,

    Tried a new experiment the other day that came out so yummy, I figured I should share it! This serves one, but you can scale it up or down according to your needs, it was just such a yummy combination of flavors that worked well!

    Tarragon Chicken and Asparagus
    Take a chicken breast - or whatever chicken part you want, and sprinkle it with salt, pepper, and then liberally with tarragon on each side. Place in a greased dish, and bake in a 350-degree over for 20 minutes or so (depending on how thick the chicken is, I use a boneless skinless breast, so 20 minutes will do fine.

    Set a pan of water to boil. I used a bow tie pasta, but any pasta that takes less than ten minutes is fine.

    While the water is heating, wash your asparagus, enough stalks, your choice, I did about 7-8, I think, and snap it into about one-inch chunks. Discard the bottoms, and set the top pieces aside. When the water is boiling, add your asparagus except for the tops. Set the timer for 7 minutes, you can add your pasta at whatever point you need.

    Meanwhile, in a bowl, dump about 2 tablespoons of cream, a teaspoon or more of tarragon, and about a half cup or more of shredded Parmesan - depending on how cheesy you like your pasta. Cut the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces, add that to the bowl.

    When the timer goes off, add the tips, and reset the timer for 3 minutes. At this point, test, and your asparagus should be done, as well as your pasta. Strain, dump into the bowl, and stir it all together.

    Add more salt and pepper as desired, if desired - depends on your personal taste, and how salty that particular Parmesan is - the stuff I had was a really good one that was naturally salty, so I didn't need much more.

    Then enjoy! It was a nice combination - the asparagus and chicken and tarragon all played off each other quite nicely!

    Blueberry slump

    There's been a conversation in Thursdays (#546) about blueberry slump. I thought it might be like a brown betty, but it's not. I found this on Taste of Home Web site.

    Ingredients

    •3 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
    •1/2 cup sugar
    •1-1/4 cups water
    •1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
    •1 tablespoon lemon juice
    •1 cup all-purpose flour
    •2 tablespoons sugar
    •2 teaspoons baking powder
    •1/2 teaspoon salt
    •1 tablespoon butter
    •1/2 cup milk
    •Cream or whipped cream, optional

    Directions
    •In a large heavy saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, water, lemon peel and juice; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
    •Meanwhile, in a large bowl,combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk quickly; stir until moistened.
    •Drop dough by spoonfuls onto berries (makes six dumplings). Cover and cook over low heat for 10 minutes. Do not lift lid while simmering. Spoon dumplings into individual serving bowls; top with sauce. Serve warm with cream or whipped cream if desired. Yield: 6 servings.

    A question for bakers. I have a cookie recipe that uses cake flour. So I have a box of Swans Down cake flour on hand that is almost full, except for what I took out for cookie dough. Should I keep it at room temperature, or should I refrigerate or freeze it? Does flour "go bad"? It's my mom's recipe and we usually make a batch for Christmas. I made them for a shower, so I'm now the lucky owner of this nearly-full box of cake flour. I am not a good baker - Pillsbury slice-and-bake is more my style. Maybe I'll just take the whole box over to my mom. I'm sure I won't be using cake flour anytime soon.

    It can be kept at room temperature, as long as it in a dry place. Doesn't "go bad" I have never had that happen, and I only use it every couple years, probably!
