For JW in Hawaii in the Feb. 9 newsletter about favorite meatloaf recipes. My families' favorite meatloaf came from my Mother and has been used almost every time I make a meatloaf. When I do try a new recipe my husband always asks "What did you do to this". He tells me not to try any new meatloaf recipes but to continue making it the same way. It is so good  I usually double the recipe. Bake longer if doubling.
Colleen in Tallahassee

Dear Nancy, This meat loaf recipe is in answer to a request made by JW Hawaii.

MY BEST MEAT LOAF Serves 4 to 6
A flavorful blend for meat loaf usually includes beef, pork, and veal. The pork is added for moistness and the veal for delicacy. The smoked ham is added here for flavor. If a flavorful ham is not available, use only beef, veal and pork, increasing the pork to 1/2 pound.

1 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground veal
1/4 pound ground pork
1/4 pound ground baked smoked ham (3/4 cup)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, or 1 1/2 teaspoon dried
2/3 cup soft bread crumbs
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
6 slices lean smoked bacon, cut in half

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine the meats with the onion, thyme, bread crumbs, eggs, salt, and pepper and mix well with a fork (not your hands; the heat of your hands toughens freshly ground meat). Form the mixture into 1 or 2 loaves.
Put 2 or 3 pieces of bacon on the bottom of a baking dish. Lay the meat loaf on top of the bacon. Cover the top of the meat loaf with bacon. (The bacon adds flavor and helps keep the loaf moist.)
Bake until the outside of the loaf is golden brown, the juices run clear when the loaf is poked with a skewer, and it feels firm to the touch--about 1 hour for a small loaf, 1 1/2 hours for a large loaf. Discard the bacon on the bottom. Serve hot as is or with a good tomato sauce, or serve cold for sandwiches with chili sauce.
NOTE: If you are baking 2 loaves in the oven at the same time, they must not touch. A good circulation of air is needed for the loaves to brown nicely. If they touch, they will stew instead.
Enjoy! Gerry from New Hampshire


With six grandchildren I try to keep some type of snack on hand for them when they visit. This recipe I found recently in a favorite magazine of mine. It was a big heat with the grandchildren as well as their parents. Very easy to make and oh so tasty!

Thanks to everyone who contributes all the great recipes. However, I am never going to lose any weight as I try too many of them. "smile" thanks also to you Nancy for the time you spend getting the newsletter out to all of us in Nancy Land! Brenda B. In north Alabama

This is for Carole who in the Feb.9th newsletter asked if pudding variations are successful when adding juices or food colorings to them. I've only used either homemade pudding or cooked pudding variations so can vouch for them. I don't care for instant puddings quite as well so haven't experimented with them, but I don't see why they wouldn't work. I can answer one part of your question....I've found vanilla pudding to be fun to experiment with. For St. Patrick's Day, I have added green food coloring to cooked vanilla pudding. I poured the pudding into a pretty inexpensive bowl with a four leaf clover design , then topped the green pudding with a mound of crushed macadamian nuts in the center. For a different recipe to consider, I have also mixed together 1/2 c. peanut butter with 1 c. powdered sugar to form a crumbly mixture which I then sprinkled evenly into a 9x9" glass baking dish. I cooked a SMALL (2.9 oz) package of vanilla pudding using ONLY 1 1/2 cups of milk.---I use this amount of milk so pudding will be of a thicker consistency. Cool pudding slightly and then pour over peanut butter mixture. This can be eaten immediately or refrigerated for later. It tastes like peanut butter pie without a crust. Sometimes I add a couple of tablespoons of finely crushed peanuts and the same amount of those tiny dark chocolate chips on the top of the pudding for a different peanut/chocolatey flavor. I haven't tried adding juices to pudding so can't answer that part of the question. :) Perhaps someone else here in Nancyland has some suggestions for that.

Chicken Mozzarella Bake
A quick and delicious chicken recipe, with boneless chicken breasts and cheese. The wine adds extra flavor, but chicken broth will work as well.

4 to 6 chicken breast halves
salt and pepper
garlic powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
1 tablespoon butter
2 to 3 tablespoons Marsala or white wine, or use chicken broth
1 medium to large tomato, sliced
4 to 6 green onions, thinly sliced
8 ounces Mozzarella cheese, sliced

Pound chicken breast halves between sheets of plastic wrap until evenly thinned out. Salt and pepper both sides then sprinkle lightly with garlic powder. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat.

Add chicken to the heated skillet; cook for about 5 minutes on each side. Remove to a baking dish. Add 1 more tablespoon butter to the skillet along with the wine or broth then sauté the mushrooms until tender and golden brown. Pour mushroom mixture over chicken in baking dish. Top with tomato slices and sliced green onions. Place Mozzarella slices over all. Bake at 325 for 25 minutes. Serves 4 to 6.

I have a couple of requests for recipe ideas. One of them is for carrots. I would like to find new ways to serve carrots as a side dish or casserole. Also, I would like some recipes for ways to use lentils. I love them, and had a friend who used to make a delicious lentil soup. It was incredibly flavorful. That is my problem…I just can't seem to get lentils to taste anything but bland. Thanks in advance. Take care.

For Dorothy in IL In answer to your question about the horseradish for the horseradish pickles. I have only used the horseradish in the jar, but I'm sure you could make a quart with your fresh grated horseradish to see how you like it.

A question - do you have to refrigerate cooking oil and vinegar after it is opened. How long can you keep these before they go bad.
Thanks - Bernie, TN


Thanks DP for the deep fried chicken recipe.
Kathy from Fl


Dear Nancylanders, This is for JW in Hawaii (luck you!), When my kids were small I tended to put left over veggies in the meatloaf (they loved the peas in it) along with leftover rice. Now I use mushrooms and Italian Seasoned breadcrumbs. I've also used oatmeal when out of bread crumbs and/or rice. Mostly I just figure meatloaf is a great way to use up leftovers! Have also put leftover mashed potatoes on top-kind of like shepherd's pie.

Sure missed you Nancy but hope you had a fun/learning experience at your seminar.
Question - I want to make some chiballa bread rolls (like in the restaurants?) #1 how do I form those rolls and #2 what are the "sponge" ingredients? Dennis (Prepared Pantry) had a good recipe a couple weeks ago but I couldn't find the "sponge" ingredients are instructions. The rolls (for sandwich) I had at Appleby's almost tased like a sour dough type bread but not.
Thanks loads.
Sue in Fl


Hi Nancy,
Love your site and appreciate all the hard work you put into it making it a great meeting place for all us folks out here who like great tasting home cooked goodies. This recipe is in response for Anna in MO (Feb 11th newsletter)) who was looking for an Amish Friendship Bread Starter and Recipe that's tried and true. I've made this one many times over the years with great success using a Zip Lock bag instead of a covered container. Either way, it's a very easy recipe for a great tasting bread. Thanks again for a great newsletter. Ms. Jackie- Port Arthur, TX

Starter
Amish Friendship Bread
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
3 cups all-purpose flour, divided
3 cups white sugar, divided
3 cups milk
DIRECTIONS:
In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Let stand 10 minutes.
In a 2 quart container glass, plastic or ceramic container OR Zip Lock freezer size bag*, combine 1 cup flour and 1 cup sugar. Mix thoroughly or flour will lump when milk is added. Slowly stir in 1 cup milk and dissolved yeast mixture. Cover loosely and let stand until bubbly. Consider this day 1 of the 10 day cycle. Leave loosely covered at room temperature.

On days 2 thru 4; stir starter with a spoon. (or if using Zip Lock, squeeze bag)

Day 5; stir in 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar and 1 cup milk.

Days 6 thru 9; stir only. (using Zip lock, squeeze bag again)

Day 10; stir in 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar and 1 cup milk.

Remove 1 cup to make your first bread. (this is the base for your Amish Bread)

Give 2 cups to friends along with this recipe, and your favorite Amish Bread recipe.

Store the remaining 1 cup starter in a container in the refrigerator, or begin the 10 day process over again (beginning with step 2).

Please keep in mind:
Never refrigerate the batter
If using the Zip Lock bag: many days you will have to let excess air out of the bag before you can squeeze it.

Note: Once you have made the starter, you will consider it Day One, and thus ignore step 1 in this recipe and proceed with step 2. You can also freeze this starter in 1 cup measures for later use. Frozen starter will take at least 3 hours at room temperature to thaw before using.

Amish Friendship Bread
To the small amount of batter (1 cup) add:

1 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
2 cups all purpose flour
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 large box instant vanilla pudding- not low fat
2 Tbs. blended- cinnamon and sugar mixture to coat pan and to top bread
OPTIONAL: Add 1 cup chopped nuts and/or 1/2 cup raisins.

Pour into two well greased and sugared (cinnamon and sugar mixture) loaf pans or two round cake pans. Sprinkle with extra cinnamon and sugar on top of batter. Bake @ 325 degrees for 1 hour.

The bread loaves freeze very well.


Hi Nancy,
Welcome back! You sure were missed. This is in response to Geralyn in NC (Newsletter - 10 February 2007) who wanted cookie recipes that would pack well and could be sent overseas. Following is a molasses/ginger cookie originally made in Marblehead, MA in Colonial Times for seamen to take on long voyages as they kept well packed in barrels aboard ship.

JOE FROGGERS (makes 2 dozen 3-inch cookies)
3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1 cup unsulphured dark molasses
1/2 cup vegetable shortening, lard or butter
1 cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons Dark rum
1/3 cup hot water

1. Sift flour, salt, ginger, baking soda, cloves, nutmeg and allspice into a medium bowl.
2. In a large mixmaster bowl, beat together the molasses, shortening and brown sugar.
3. Combine hot water and rum
4. To the sugar-molasses-shortening mixture, add the dry ingredients alternately with the water/rum.
( if the dough is dry, add an additional tablespoon or two of water, one at a time.)
5. Refrigerate dough for at least two hours. (If desired, refrigerated dough may then be put into freezer bags and frozen for later use).
6. Roll out the dough between two sheets of waxed paper until it is 1/4-inch thick.
7. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease two baking sheets.
8. Cut the dough into 3-inch cookies with a cookie cutter (or coffee can for the traditional larger size). Place them on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees F. for 10 to 12 minutes. Cookies should be dark around the edges and firm in center. Set baking sheet on a rack to cool for 3 minutes. Then remove the cookies to a rack to cool completely.

PACKING TIPS: During World Was II we used popped corn for a box filler. During Korea and Vietnam we used peanuts in the shell. Today, I guess you could use those white plastic things. They all would keep glass from breaking.

In the Feb 13 newsletter JAM IN SATX wanted to know where to find large grain tapioca. Look in the grocery section where you find dry bagged beans (like kidney or white beans). That’s where they are at my grocery store.

JAM- in SATXS I find my large tapioca in a Mennonite bulk store. If you have anything like that where you live perhaps you can find the big tapioca there.

Andee in L.A. posted a recipe for a coconut cream cake in the 2/7 newsletter. It sounds so good I love coconut cakes. Is this cake soggy? I want to try it but I really hate soggy. I wonder the same thing about cakes that have sweetened condensed milk poured over them as well. Thanks in advance for your answer.

Nancy and Fur Babies; Thought you might like this recipe I made up today for
my "fur kids."
Margaret, Tulsa

CHICKEN LIVER CAT FOOD
1 LB. raw chicken livers
1/3 C. brown rice
2 (5.5 OZ) jars baby food (I used carrots & green beans)

Rinse chicken livers and cover with cold water. Simmer until almost done, add rice and cook down until there is hardly any liquid left. Remove from
heat. Either mash with potato masher or grind up in blender. Stir in the 2 jars of baby food. Store in refrigerator. I put mixture in small
containers and freeze part of it until needed. Will last for a while. I give the cats each about a tablespoon of it at a serving. I am also mixing
a liquid medicine for animals with arthritis in one of the 12 year old cat's portion.

Hi Nancy! Hope you and Ditto and Siggy are doing well. This is for CeeZee who wanted the recipe for cabbage cooked in foil.

I sent in the recipe sometime in January, if this is the one she was talking about. My husband cooked cabbage like this on our smoker for our Christmas BBQ for our businesses.

BBQ Cabbage
1 head of cabbage, cored and left whole
6 slices of bacon, uncooked
1 stick of butter
salt and pepper to taste

Put the butter into the cored center of the head of cabbage. Salt and pepper as desired. Lay the slices of bacon over the top. Wrap completely in foil. Cook on the grill until it is soft. Cut up and serve

I was looking to take a dessert but if someone has a good recipe for a homemade pizza I would like that too. Thanks for the help and also Nancy thanks for all you do. I love the newsletter!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I tried Tona’s Cherry Upside Down Cake for Valentine’s Day, and it was absolutely DELICIOUS! The cake was yummy and moist. My husband who is not that big of a cake eater had 2 pieces of it and asked me to save the recipe in my keeper file!

I hope that everyone is staying warm in those colder areas we just had 21 inches drop on us in Rochester, NY with a balmy -12 with the wind chill! I am welcoming spring.
