Hi Nancy, Re: Muffin Top Pans. I was unable to pull up the Prepared Pantry
website. However, I did get a baker's catalogue from KING ARTHUR FLOUR
and found the pans in the catalogue. Today's N/L 9/6 has the
Catalogs.com free catalogs ad. The catalog is listed in the many free
ones. I have already ordered 2 of the pans.
Margaret, Tulsa
P.S. Thought this might be a website some of the other "Landers" might
be interested in since there was a discussion some time back about KING
ARTHUR FLOUR.
Great Leftover Casserole
1 cup sliced celery
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup butter
1-7 ounce box herbed croutons
2 cans of either mushroom, chicken or celery soup
1-4 ounce can mushrooms, drained
1 cup chicken broth
3 cups cooked chicken, turkey or ham
Saute celery & onion in butter in large casserole. Stir in croutons,
then add remaining ingredients. Cover & cook in microwave on high for 10
minutes. Or this can be baked in oven for 1/2 hour @ 350 degrees. This
is good to make when you are in a hurry. I think beef would be good also
using beef broth instead of chicken broth. I've only used chicken or
turkey when making this but it's really good.

I have another date bar recipe that's really good but different from
previous one. I got this one from my sister & it too is a winner! I make
this also for the holidays every year.
Date Nut Bars
Combine 3/4 cup chopped dates & 3/4 cup chopped walnuts. Mix 2
tablespoons flour to above to keep from sticking together. Set aside.
Mix 1/3 cup Crisco, 2/3 cup brown sugar(packed), and 1 egg. Beat till
fluffy. Add 2 tablespoons milk & 1 teaspoon vanilla. Set aside.
Mix dry ingredients together: 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon,
1/4 teaspoon baking powder,1 & 3/4 cup flour, PLUS 2 tablespoons flour.
Mix well & add to above. Add dates & walnuts.
Put this into a greased 13x9 pan & bake 1/2 hour @350 degrees. Dust with
powder sugar & cut into squares while still warm.

For Ella in CA:
This is a recipe for Chop Suey. My Dad gave it to me, he was from
Chicago. It was my Grandmother's recipe. When my Dad got older and in
bad health, he gave me this recipe and requested I make it. He loved
it---and so did my husband. The part that says "Mother prefers all pork
shoulder" is taken directly from my Dad's recipe.
Hope you enjoy!
Tina in GA
Chop Suey (Dagny Jensen’s recipe)
1-1/2 lbs meat cut in cubes (*half beef and pork or half pork and veal)
Mother prefers all pork shoulder
1 cup onion
1 cup celery
3 tablespoons molasses
Brown meat in butter. Pour in saucepan, add enough water so that when
you tip the pot a little, you can see the water. Simmer for about 15
minutes. Add celery, onion and molasses on top of meat and don't stir.
Simmer until celery and onion are tender, about an hour.
Just before serving, thicken juice with cornstarch mixed in water and
add mushrooms, as many as you prefer. Serve with boiled rice.
Here's another good recipe I make over the holidays but it's delicious any
time.

Hi all NancyLanders,
I thoroughly enjoy this letter and reading everyone's requests. My
daughter has been looking for a copycat (or clone) for Bojangle's Cajun
Pintos. If anyone could help with this, I would appreciate it.
Bojangle's Restaurants are in the southeast and eastern states. I really
would like to get this for her if at all possible.
Thanks, Mildred in NC
I just found and amazing website that I think many of you will enjoy. The
site is www.etsy.com. You can buy and sell handmade and vintage items
for a very reasonable cost. I plan to do some Christmas shopping here as
I really enjoy handmade items. I also will sell some items here soon. I
spent over an hour on the site Sunday afternoon. Check it out!!
Do you know Cool Whip now comes in an aerosol can?

Hi Nancy: I haven't submitted a recipe in quite some time, but would like
to submit my own version of baked beans. This is for all my fellow
vegetarians:
Baked Beans
3 cans of beans in tomato sauce
1 can Mexican red beans (could use pinto)
chopped onions and green/red sweet peppers
(however many you want)
1 can diced pineapple
Brown sugar, ketchup and mustard to taste.
Put beans in slowcooker. Saute onions & pepper & stir into beans along
with pineapple, br. sugar, ketchup & mustard. Cook for several hrs.
I hope you all like these as well as we do.
Agatha (from Ontario, Canada)
Hello Nancy!
I am responding to the newsletter of 9/5. Ella from CA requested a
recipe for Chop Suey with molasses. Mine isn't made with molasses but it
is a similar recipe and very easy to make.
Dolores
Chop Suey
1 pound chop suey meat or pork cubes
1 large can chop suey vegetables (do not drain)
1/2 cup chopped onions
1 small can sliced mushrooms
1 T. Brown Gravy Sauce (see note)
Thicken with cornstarch dissolved in water before serving.
I use Minute Rice so it's easier for me! We also like the rice noodles
instead of chow mein noodles on top and a little soy sauce.
Makes 4 servings approx.
Brown meat, season with salt and pepper. Add chopped onions and cook
until transparent. Add chop suey vegetables and mushrooms including all
the juices from the cans. Mix in the one tablespoon of Brown Gravy
Sauce. Simmer until meat is tender, about 1 hour.
Note: Brown Gravy Sauce is found in the Asian aisle along with the chop
suey vegetables and soy sauce, etc. It's a thick dark brown sauce that
includes molasses and caramel flavorings. It also gives the chop suey a
rich, brown color along with a sweet, salty taste.
Hi Everyone,
Someone sent a recipe for pear salad which is similar to one I make.
This one has a little different twist so thought I would send it. It
is definitely a favorite at any gathering. It is so easy to do.
Pear Salad
1 3 oz. pkg. sugar free lime jello
1 8 oz. pkg. low fat cream cheese
1 can lite pears
Put one cup boiling water and jello in blender. Blend until dissolved.
Add cream cheese that has been cut in to chunks. Blend again. Add the
can of pears with juice. Blend until smooth. Pour into a 1 1/2 qt
serving dish. Top with colored miniature
marshmallows. Chill.

Ok I know yall can help me. My husband wants a peanut butter
frosting that his grandmother use to make. She made it in a cast iron
skillet and poured it on a cake. She is in the nursing home and has
memory problems. He said it got harder when it cooled but not crispy. I
hope some one knows what I am talking about. I can not come up with a
good one. My goats love me because of my trying so hard.
I made these for my son and they were wonderful. I found cantaloupe on
sale for $.68 a piece. He loves them and I wanted to make them last. I
froze them in an ice cube tray and pull them out of the freezer bag when
he wants one. I am going to try water melon next or maybe honeydew. He
loves melon of any type.

4 cups cubed cantaloupe
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
1 Tablespoon chopped fresh mint or 1 teaspoon dried mint

In a blender or food processor combine the first five ingredients; cover

sticks. Freeze until firm.

I would like to make lemon infused olive oil for Christmas gifts, but the
sites /recipes I've seen are scaring me a bit, with talk of botulism and
steriliziing and refrigerating.....(my 'market' bought I just keep in
the cupboard as I do plain olive oil: is that not right?) Does anyone
know if it is safe to make a batch, bottle it, and give it away without
worrying? Thanks in advance!
Sue in Washington
To Tona in Bama: THANK-YOU SO MUCH, for all the wonderful recipes for
FUDGE in the Sat.9/6/08 news-letter. I copied them all. Even tho I'm
diabetic I enjoy making "good fudge" for giving away at Christmas & so
forth. By the way could these recipes be made with the splenda??? It
would cut down the sugar content to where maybe some diabetics with good
control (as I am) could cheat once in a while.
Thanks again, Jennie NM
I just highlight, copy, paste in edit and then click write and send the
recipe to my mail box. Then when I have more time there is no searching
and I just print the recipe for my recipe file. No play on words but
easy as pie.

For Anita in Camarillo, in the same newsletter, wanting a spaghetti
recipe using Romas I am enclosing my T & T recipe. Sounds so good I just
might make some this week!
http://whatscookin.proboards4.com/index.cgi?
Below is my spaghetti recipe. This is my recipe for spaghetti sauce I
have made time and again. My 18 yr. old granddaughter says it is
Awesome! She asked for the recipe so she could make it at home instead
of the one they usually make! LOL Sometimes I don't use the bay leaf,
though. It's up to the cook. This is a combination of several recipes
that I tried till I found a combination we really liked. This makes a
lot, so I usually freeze 1/2 of it. It actually fills our 6 qt. crock
pot!
Slow Cooker Spaghetti and Meat Sauce
1-1/2 lb. browned ground beef
8 oz. or ½ pkg. mild ground Italian sausage, browned with ground beef
8 Roma tomatoes, fine diced (you may want to use more) OR
1 (28 oz.) can whole Italian style (Roma) tomatoes, cut up and undrained
Or you may use fresh, I do! Use 1 ½ to 1 ¾ lbs. fresh Romas
1 pkg. fresh mushrooms, sliced (you may use canned, drained)
1 lg. onion, finely diced
1 large green bell pepper, finely diced
1 large red bell pepper, finely diced
1 (6 oz.) can tomato paste
1 (15 oz.) can tomato puree
2 to 3 cans (8 oz. ea.) tomato sauce
1 c. dry red wine
1 ½ tsp. minced garlic
2 tsp. sugar - this is essential!
2 tsp. dried Italian seasoning, crushed
1/8 - ¼ tsp. ground black pepper - or to taste
1 bay leaf
12 oz. dried pasta, cooked and drained
shredded Italian cheese - I use Asiago sometimes
Brown ground beef and sausage till browned in large skillet. Meanwhile,
combine remainder of ingredients, minus the pasta, in crock-pot. Cover
and cook on high heat till meat is browned. Add browned meat and cover;
turn crackpot to low and cook on low heat for 8 to10 hours. Or you may
cook on high heat for 4 to 5 hours. Remove bay leaf and discard. Pass
pasta and sauce and cheese. Enjoy!! Chris in NM
Here is a link to lots of tomato recipes:
http://www.nancyskitchen.com/tomato_recipes.htm My favorite is this one
below. You can freeze it in smaller containers, just enough for 1 recipe
in each container. When you need sauce, grab a container, thaw and add
to the dish you want to make! Saves lots of time! I always use Romas
when making any kind of sauce; so since this recipe calls for 20 large
tomatoes I would use 40 Romas.
FrozEn Tomato Sauce
http://www.nancyskitchen.com/tomato_recipes.htm
20 lg. tomatoes
4 lg. onions
4 lg. carrots
8 stalks celery
3 tbsp. sugar or less
3/4 tsp. pepper
Salt to taste
(Don't need any sugar or salt.) Cut vegetables in chunks and put all in
large (heavy) kettle and bring to boil, stirring often. Simmer on low
heat 40 minutes to an hour, until soft. Cool and put in blender on high
for 1 minute or so. Freeze in 1 pint cartons. Good in casseroles and
chili. (Don't need to peel vegetables either.)

Diane in Longview, Washington
Does anyone out there have a recipe for chicken and dumplings?
You know the kind you always hear about "granny" made. Not the fluffy
type. I have a pretty good recipe for those. An elderly lady in our
church in MIssouri used to make it so wonderfully. Does anyone have a
favorite recipe they wouldn't mind sharing.
Thank you. Lorraine in Wyoming
