Two-fer-Tuesday. What I think would make a nice dog days of summer supper. From Old El Paso Sun Country Mexican Cookbook (1978). Similar temps and cooking times. I’d probably put the muffins in with the tomatoes and let them go the extra five minutes. STUFFED TOMATO CUPS Serves 4 4 large tomatoes, tops cut off,
Good time of year for soup, don’t you agree? Put a bunch of good things in the slow cooker in the morning. Turn it on low. Come back hours later. Add a biscuit or roll and you’ve got a good hearty supper. SAUSAGE GREENS SOUP Serves 6 1 egg, beaten2 Tbsp milk¼ C fine dry
Originally published January 26, 2021. Not exactly the most blog-worthy photos but it is real life. Yesterday was Marica Cooks Monday. We had Diner Old Fashioned Meat Loaf with Diner Candied Yams. An excellent and hearty meal. This is one of our favorite meat loaf recipes. For just the two of us, I made half
I’ll have it for lunch today, too. That’s how good it is. It was a very casual supper so we had cheese hot dogs to go with. Yummy. I put it together differently than the instructions call for. It’s mac & cheese. Hard to go wrong. VEGETABLE MACARONI & CHEESE CASSEROLE Serves about 8 1
