Allifunn: He will want to marry you after this dinner!

I have spent my whole productive day at work printing recipes from this forum. Menu planning for the next 10 days. I am now armed with entirely new culinary adventures for the fam. They will thank you all. (They can't wait for the mac & cheese, IBD)

 

[Allifunn]

I am impressed- and if he's not, well ditch him!

Are recipes available for the cheddar pecan spread, shrimp and scallops? (insert begging smilie here)

I can't find a couple of the recipes..but will post them when I do! (I did fin the shrimp one..it is to die for and I'll post it this weekend!)

yes, there are some great rice potato making memories. but don't tell madam - potatoes are my favorite food on this earth and I just did not like those. neither did your bro. I guess that is our big hairy skeleton in the family closet - we don't like the riced potatoes!!!

I didn't know skeletons were hairy.....

I had these the other night and thought they were really good. I'm making them tonight to take to my MIL's on Christmas Eve and my Dad's on Christmas. I'm doubling the recipe. Would be good for new years too.

Sausage Saurkraut Balls

1 lb ground sausage (I like the sage kind)
1 large clove garlic, minced
1 15 oz can of saurkraut
1 8oz cream cheese
1 tube crescent rolls

Brown sausage with the garlic, needs to be chopped fine. Add drained kraut. Mix cream cheese and heat through.
Separate crescent rolls into 4 triangles, closing up the diagonal cuts. Roll each out on a floured surface very thin, should measure approx. 9"x12" . Cut into 12 3" squares. Place a heaping teaspoon of the meat mixture on each and roll up. Place on ungreased baking sheet and bake for 20 min. at 375 degrees until golden brown. Serve with mustard of your choice.
(May be made ahead and frozen.)

Those entrees look tasty, BR.
Well my husband ended up purchasing BOTH butterflied leg of lamb as well as beef tenderloin. (The tenderloin was on special.) So we can take our pick for Christmas Eve, and have the second choice for Christmas Day.
Better do some walking and swimming to make up for all this.
