Meatloaf --- great great recipe

Meatloaf ---


I know - why would anyone have a blog about meatloaf?  I love meatloaf, so here is my favorite recipe.


Meatloaf

1 lb. hamburger - I use the 85% to 15% type
1/2 of a column of Premium Soda Crackers - crushed    ( I use only Premium - soda crackers, make a    nice mix)
1 egg
1/4-1/2 half chopped white onion - I have used Yellow-(You have to use more yellow-say twice as much)
1 can of tomato sauce -  leave a about 1/4 of a can to garnish the top-

Mix all of this in a very cute bowl -- Line your pan with foil -- Then you don't have to clean it out.
put the rest of the tomato sauce over the top -
Cook at 350 degrees for 1 to 1 1/2 hours (be sure you put in baked potatoes and a squash to use the heat)

There you go  one oven dinner.

Yeah - this makes really good meatloaf sandwiches

Wedding --- Crab or Shrimp dip - Wonderful

I love wedding -- I try to get people married.  Why?  Because I am married and I want everyone to be as happy as I am.

So, when I get a call -- I remember Grandma Brown's recipe.  

It is so good and all you have to do is - serve {I know you have to make it first}

To all who are thinking of marriage - or those who are married -  make some crab mold.  

Yeah

1-cup mayo.                              

1 can shrimp or crab with liquid

1 pkg. Knox Jell-O - (1 T.) dissolved in 3 T cold water

3 green onions, diced

Heat soup and blend in the cream cheese.  Add Gelatin and other ingredients.  Put into the mold.  Makes 8 small or 1-quart mold.  Can be frozen (But, i don't like it when it thaws out).  Serve with sliced bagettes.

Tootsie Rolls --YUM!

TOOTSIE ROLLS – Carol Jean Brown

Hint - In order for the tootsie roll to be smooth --- You must pulverize - in a blender or food processor - the Dried Milk and Powdered Sugar.  Or you will be picking out little white lumps in your candy.  

Melt:                                            

4 Tbs. Butter

6 Tbs. cocoa    

Add:1/2 cup light Karo syrup

1 t. vanilla

Stir in:  3 cups powdered sugar (blended first)

3/4-cup instant milk (blended first)

Melt until butter, sugar and milk are mixed. Add dry ingredients.   Roll into ropes.  Cut into desired lengths.  Wrap in wax paper.  Store in airtight container.

I have never -- ok, maybe once in a while -- needed to store these tootsie rolls.  

Really fun with kids.

Bread - Of life - made in the Bread Machine

I know -- I can't made bread to save my life.

Ok !  Maybe if My life depended on it.

Now, this recipe I have changed -  I add lemon juice to help the flour - 2 squirts - maybe 1 - 2 tbs.

Hope you enjoy this -  I have worn out 1 machine and am working on any other one.

Here's to bread -  Yeah!

Bread
I put my machine on french bread - 1 pound loaf - dark crust - It doesn't brown unless you do this

1 - 1/2 cups water
3 cup flour (here I add maybe 1/2 cup or more - because of the lemon juice)  I just watch the side of the mixer when it mixes
1 tsp salt (very important - it will taste bad without this)
1 tsp yeast
olive oil - about 1 tbs.
lemon juice -  see above

Put this in the mixer as listed - then push start -  I stand there a couple of minutes to see how much flour is needed.

Then, presto !   4 hours later Bread.

I made this Bread - on Saturday, which my husband loves.
There is enough for Sandwiches on Saturday -( if he hasn't got to is by then).
And some for french toast on Sunday.

Love this

I stopped at this one -- just for a rainy day.

Enjoy.
