Baked Oatmeal

2009-12-28T12:28:00.000-08:00

Amy is sharing this recipe with us! Thanks Amy!

3 Cups quick rolled oats

2 Tsp. baking powder

1 Tsp. salt

1/3 Cup melted butter

1 Cup packed brown sugar

1 Tsp. ground cinnamon

1 Cup milk

2 eggs, beaten

Mix all ingredients together and pour into a buttered 9"x9" baking pan. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes. Serve warm with milk or applesauce. For variety, swirl in jam, peanut butter or flavored syrup before baking. Chopped dried fruits or nuts add a nice texture.

(I used regular oats and it worked just fine. I also added raisins before baking. Make sure you mix well. I didn't and got all the salt in my bowl, blech.)

Taco Meat

2009-12-22T14:55:00.000-08:00

Magic Mix

2009-03-06T07:00:00.000-08:00

We made this in relief society as one of our activities. I was unsure of it at first, but I am pleasantly surprised. I am really enjoying it! Basically it is a recipe for a white sauce, but in a very convenient way. I have made several dishes ( Mac and Cheese, Alfredo sauce, potato cheese soup, biscuits and gravy and "Fudgeficles") with it so far and will be posting them soon. First you will need to make up the magic mix

2 1/3 cups powdered milk
1 cup flour
1 cup butter
Combine all ingredients in large bowl mix using beaters.
Store tightly covered in the refrigerator.

Magic Mix white sauce

Layered Jello

2009-03-04T07:00:00.000-08:00

This is a fun and easy to make jello. You can make it festive for Christmas by layering red and green, or even make a rainbow by layering a few different colors. I made this one in an 8x8 pan. If you want to layer more than one jello use a 9x13 pan. Enjoy!!

6 oz. package of jello
2 1/2 cups of boiling water
1/3 cup sour cream

Mix jello and boiling water together until jello is dissolved. Pour all but 1 cup of jello into pan and let set. When the 1 cup is cooled mix in 1/3 cup of sour cream, I use a whisk to do this. Then pour over set jello.
Repeat to add another layer. When adding another layer be sure to lett it cool before pouring over the set layer.

Peanut Butter Cookies

2009-03-02T07:00:00.000-08:00

This is the best peanut butter cookie recipe that I have had! My Husband loves them so much he will even make them himself! The recipe calls for quick oats, but if you take your rolled oats and put them in your blender and blend them up a bit they should work just fine! Hope you enjoy these YUMMY cookies!

Corn Dog Muffins

2009-02-23T08:00:00.000-08:00

When I first saw this recipe I didn't think it sounded very good. Why I decided to try it I don't know. It was surprisingly good! I really liked them. My son will eat them but my daughter is a little more pick. She likes them separate. You will need corn meal. For those of you that have a WinCo, I believe you can buy corn meal for about .61 cent's a pound, not a bad price if you ask me! Here is the recipe.

1 1/2 cups flour
2/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup corn meal
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cup milk
2 eggs
1/3 cup oil
3 Tablespoons butter

Combine flour, sugar, corn meal, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and mix. Combine milk, eggs, oil and butter in a small bowl and mix well.

Add 1 cup of cheese. The recipe says to use 9 hot dogs cut in half and stick them in the middle of the muffin. I like to cut up the hot dog and mix it in the batter and I do not use 9 hot dogs, but I can't remember how many I put in.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. lightly grease muffin tins. fill muffin tins 2/3 full. Bake for 14 to 18 minutes.

Rice Pudding!

2009-02-20T13:42:00.000-08:00

This recipe was given to me by my Mother-in-law. She has made it several times and raves about it. It sounds really good.

Warm 1/2 gallon of milk on high in the crockpot for one hour (you can make up some powdered milk an use it if you want).
Add 1 cup of rice
1 cup of sugar
(optional - I put in once stick of cinnamon)
and continue to heat on high for 3 hours.
While this is cooking remove 4 eggs from the fridge to bring to room temperature

By this time the rice should be fully cooked and will have absorbed most of the milk

Mix together
4 well beaten room temperature eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Stir in about 1/2 cup of the cooked rice and milk into the egg mixture to "temper it"
Then while stirring the rest of the cooked rice slowly add the egg mixture.

Keep the crockpot on high and stir until it is nice and thick.

You can eat it right away (after it cools, of course) or pour into a buttered
9x13 glass dish and cover very loosely and let cool.
Then cover and refrigerate. It can be warmed up by the dish full in the microwave.

We serve it with cinnamon sugar and your choice of
milk
cream or
whipped cream (for a special treat we did this as dessert for the missionaries)

Macaghetti

2009-02-19T10:00:00.000-08:00

This really is not a recipe but an idea! My kids are not big on spaghetti but I thought I would try this any way. They are the ones that actually came up with the name Macaghetti, and they actually liked it. You can use sausage or ground beef. I liked the sausage put the kids thought it was too spice. So I cooked up some macaroni noodles and mixed Spaghetti sauce, meat and the noodles together. It was fast easy and delicious!

Tasty Buns

2009-02-18T20:00:00.000-08:00

These are very easy to make. They make great hamburger buns and even hot dog buns. In the picture above I actually made 24 rolls. I like to use parchment paper when possible, but it is not necessary you can grease the cookie sheet.

4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
4 1/2 teaspoons yeast
1 cup milk
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt

1. Stir together 2 cups flour and the yeast. In a separate bowl heat milk, water, oil, sugar and salt to lukewarm in microwave or on top of stove. Add all at once to the flour mixture and beat until smooth (about 3 minutes).
2. Add enough flour to make soft dough (2-3 cups). Mix well and let rest in bowl for about 10 minutes.
3. Shape into 12 slightly flat balls and place on greased baking sheet to rise until doubled in size.
4. Bake in a preheated 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) oven for 12 to 15 minutes.
Makes 12 buns (48 buns) My directions... Warm milk, water, and sugar. Add to mixer bowl stir in yeast to soften. Add oil and salt and gradually knead in flour. Form into buns, place on lightly greased pans, let rise, and bake at 400º for 10-12 minutes
