Good morning and welcome to your Sunday edition of A to Z Recipes Newsletter. I am not
as deft and nimble as I used to be... my work schedule along with my
personal commitments kept me so busy that I found I could hardly eek
out an issue last Wednesday. Thanks for being patient with me. As you know, I love
to cook and both of my daughters, Joanna and Angela,
aspired to become good cooks. Joanna is married and has
3 children and is indeed a great cook. Angela is
starting a new life far from Mom's kitchen and wants to learn how to cook
"like Mom". I gathered some recipes to give to them both and thought...
hmm... why not share them with all of you. These are perfect for
beginner cooks as well as those who know their way around a casserole
dish. The recipes are some from when my kids were growing up as well as some that I thought they'd enjoy preparing.
I hope you enjoy them, too!
PS: Happy Birthday wishes are going out to Joanna who
will hit a milestone year (40!) this coming Thursday.
Our a2z family will be visiting the Charleston, South
Carolina area this year. The reservation is for the week of
November 5-11, 2011. I have updated the trip page on our web site
which tells you all about it. Here is the link: http://www.a2zrecipes.net/IOP.html.
We have rented a lovely beach house on Isle of Palms.
We have
space for 2 at
the house so send me an email. Of course,
there are many great places in the area in case you miss out on staying
in the house. We will make a day-trip to Savannah, GA
to shop and then lunch at The Lady &
Sons Restaurant, owned by Hey,
y'all! Paula
Deen. We also have plans to take in a cruise of Charleston's Harbor,
and tour Fort
Sumter. A few great restaurants have special plans for our
group, and lots more! Use the link on
the web page to
confirm your interest in sharing expenses of the luxury
rental beach house (save at least one half over a hotel).
The current Monthly Theme
topic is "The Flavors Of
Fall". Please visit the Monthly
Theme - Recipe Submissions section to read all about it. You'll
find the link there to use for sharing recipes here at A to Z Recipes Newsletter.
We'll see you here again on Wednesday, God willing.

The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting
enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of
donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman.
It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on "donating
a mammogram" for free (pink window in the middle).
This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use
the number of daily visits to donate mammograms in exchange for
advertising. Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

~Shared by Charlie J., Mobile, AL
It has been said that if Christians and Jews really understood the full
extent of the power available through prayer, we might be speechless.
Did you know that during WWII there was an adviser to Churchill who
organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every day
at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety
of England, for its people and for peace?
There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in
America.
If you would like to participate: Every evening at 9:00 PM Eastern Time
(8:00 PM Central) (7:00 PM Mountain) (6:00 PM Pacific), stop whatever
you are doing and spend one minute praying for the safety of the United
States, our troops, our citizens, and for a return to a Godly nation.
If you know others who would like to participate, please pass this
along. Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have.
You don't have to sign on, or sign up - just pray, and ask your friends
to join you in prayer.
Thank you . . . let's bring meaning back to "God Bless America".

Tips to Make Easy Dinner Recipes Even
Easier!
Prep it Ahead
Cut boneless skinless chicken breasts into bite-size pieces, then
freeze in 1-lb. quantities in resealable freezerweight bags so they’re
ready to use in your favorite recipes.
If you use browned ground beef frequently, save time by cooking it in
advance. If ground beef is refrigerated promptly after cooking, it can
be safely refrigerated up to 4 days, or frozen up to 3 months. Never
partially cook ground beef for later use -it should be fully cooked to
destroy any bacteria.
Purchasing a fully-cooked rotisserie chicken at the supermarket is a
quick way to obtain cooked chicken for recipe use.
Purchase ready-to-use cut-up vegetables from the salad bar of your
grocery store to use to quickly assemble salads or side dishes.
Many fruits and vegetables are also now available already sliced,
chopped and washed in the produce section.
Stay Organized
To keep track of exactly what's in your freezer, attach a running
inventory list to the freezer door. Add and cross out items on
the list as they are stored or removed for at-a-glance meal planning.
Prepare a standard grocery list for items you want to keep on hand,
such as kitchen staples like bread, milk, and vegetables, as well as
other commonly use foods, such as pasta, cheeses, meats and baking
needs. When you use up the last of an item, just circle it on
your list so it’s ready for the next grocery trip.
Organize the food in your refrigerator so you can easily see everything
that’s there, preventing you from purchasing foods you already have but
just didn’t know they were there! Also, remember to organize the
food in your cabinets and frequently check expiration dates for
outdated ingredients.
Make it Easier
Slow cookers let you put everything together in the morning and arrive
to a perfectly cooked recipe later in the day.
Plan a day or weekend to do a lot of cooking, then freeze the prepared
dishes for enjoyment throughout the week.
Enlist friends and family to help out. Create a family night when
everyone works together in the kitchen to help prepare the meal.
Or, plan a potluck with your neighbors and friends, asking everyone to
prepare and share their favorite recipes.

Our
Monthly
Theme topic is: The Flavors Of Fall
Fall is approaching. The days are
getting shorter and the evenings cooler, but there is still bountiful
produce in season. Fall offers a new variety of nutritious fruits and
vegetables which will inspire you to get back in the kitchen and try
new, delicious recipes. Share a few with your fellow a2z'ers using
seasonal ingredients in this delightful monthly theme topic. Apples,
pears, cranberries, squash, cabbage, stews, cobblers, etc. come to
mind. Yum! We're looking for recipes that feature the flavors of fall. Please join in the fun by sharing
your favorite recipes in this month's theme.
Be sure to use the Monthly

them posted, ok? It has been suggested that we limit the number
of recipes posted to 10 per reader. Any extras will be saved to use in

and call it a recipe submission. I have graciously put it all in
recipe format and made you a hero. PLEASE provide a recipe,
i.e.: Title, Ingredients, Procedure, along with your name and location.
You'll be an even bigger hero in my eyes! Please share your
ten (10) most favorite recipes in this month's theme topic of

more, they will be used for future issues, which is excellent! We will
collect them the remainder of this month and post them

An elderly man is stopped by the police around 1 a.m. and is asked

The man replies, "I am going to a lecture about alcohol abuse and the
effects it has on the human body."
The officer then asks, "Really? Who is giving that lecture at this time
of night?"

SCOTCH EGGS
Hard-boiled eggs are wrapped in sausage, breaded, and deep-fried.
Served warm or at room temperature, these are great for breakfast or
quartered as an appetizer.
INGREDIENTS:
2 raw eggs
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
2 cups fresh bread crumbs (see Maggie's note)
8 hard-cooked eggs, peeled
1 pound bulk country-style sausage
Vegetable oil for frying
PREPARATION:
Beat the raw eggs and mustard together in a shallow bowl. Place the
bread crumbs in another shallow bowl. Encase each hard-cooked egg
completely in a thin layer of sausage, using both hands to mold the
sausage around the egg.
Dip one sausage-encased egg first in the egg mixture and then coat with
the bread crumbs*. Set aside on a plate and repeat with the remaining
hard-cooked eggs. Refrigerate covered at least 3 hours or overnight.
Heat 3 inches oil in a deep-fat fryer to 375 degrees F. Fry 2 or 3 eggs
at a time, turning occasionally, until quite well-browned, 10 to 15
minutes. (You want to make sure the sausage meat is thoroughly cooked.)
Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper
towels. Serve the Scotch eggs, cut into quarters, at room temperature.
Pass additional mustard if desired.
Yield: 8 portions
*Note from Maggie: I use Pork flavor Shake'n Bake instead of bread
crumbs. Dee-lish served hot and dipped in cool Ranch dressing!

CHILE RELLENOS
CASSEROLE
I baked a pan* of this and Angela and I ate it all week. I wrapped some
in flour tortillas for breakfast, and had some on toast as sandwiches
for lunch, too. Now she will know how easy it is to fix!
10 eggs
1/2 cup unsifted flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 cup butter, melted
16 oz. low fat small curd cottage cheese
1 pound Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded
1/4 tsp. ground cumin
2 4 oz. cans of chopped green chiles
Heat oven to 350 degrees F and grease small baking dishes. In large
bowl, beat eggs until light and lemon colored. Add all ingredients
except chilies. Mix.
Pour 1/2 cup mixture into each pan and spread. Top with thin layer of
green chiles. Top with another layer of mixture. Bake about 30 minutes
until top is browned and center firm. It is best served hot from the
oven.
*If you prefer, you can make this in a 9x13 pan, just plan to bake it a
little longer. HINT: you can make the egg mixture the night before and
assemble it just before baking.
Makes 8 servings.

CHICKEN PAPRIKA
(Paprikas Csirke)
Evoking memories of my Slavic (Czech) background I share this tasty
dish. This is actually a Hungarian dish, but resembles the food of my
youth. My Grandma and Aunt Margaret would serve this with spaetzle or
egg noodles. Rice would be good, too.
A 3-pound frying chicken, cut up
Salt
2 tablespoons lard (canola or even butter will work)
1 cup finely chopped onions
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1-1/2 tablespoons sweet Hungarian paprika
1 cup chicken stock, fresh or canned
2 tablespoons flour
1-1/2 cup sour cream
1. Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and salt them
generously.
2. In a 10-inch skillet, heat the lard over high heat until a light
haze forms over it. Add as many chicken pieces, skin side down, as will
fit in one layer.
3. After 2 or 3 minutes, or when the pieces are a golden brown on the
bottom side, turn them with tongs and brown the other side. Remove
pieces as they brown and replace them with uncooked ones.
4. Pour off the fat, leaving only a thin film. Add the onions and
garlic and cook them over medium heat 8 to l0 minutes, or until lightly
colored.
5. Off the heat, stir in the paprika; stir until the onions are well
coated. Return the skillet to the heat and add the chicken stock. Bring
to a boil, stirring in the brown bits from the bottom and sides of the
pan.
6. Return the chicken to the skillet. Bring the liquid to a boil again,
then turn the heat to its lowest point and cover the pan tightly.
Simmer the chicken for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the juice from a
thigh runs yellow when it is pierced with the point of a small sharp
knife.
7. When the chicken is tender, remove it to a platter. Skim the surface
fat from the skillet. In a mixing bowl, stir the flour into the sour
cream with a wire whisk, then stir the mixture into the simmering
juices.
8. Simmer 6 to 8 minutes longer, or until the sauce is thick and
smooth, then return the chicken and any juices that have collected
around it to the skillet. Baste with the sauce, simmer 3 or 4 minutes
to heat the pieces through, and serve.
Serves: 4 to 5
PASTA CARBONARA
The residual heat of the pasta will sufficiently cook the egg yolks.
Ingredients
12 oz linguine
3 large egg yolks
salt and pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romano (2 oz), plus more for sprinkling
6 oz sliced bacon (7 slices), cut into 1/4-in. pieces

Cook the pasta according to package directions. Reserve 3/4 cup of the
cooking water and drain the pasta. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk
together the egg yolks, Parmesan, and 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper.
Gradually whisk in 1/4 cup of the warm reserved cooking liquid. Cook
the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally,
until crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the pasta to the skillet and toss to
coat. Transfer the pasta and bacon to the bowl with the egg mixture and
toss until the noodles are coated (if the mixture seems dry, stir in
additional reserved pasta water 2 Tbsp at a time). Serve immediately
and sprinkle with additional Parmesan and pepper, if desired.

SOUR CREAM CHICKEN
My daughter Angela loves sour cream and mushrooms in almost any dish.
This one is easy to put together and even easier to cook.
Ingredients:
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
2 cups sour cream
3/4 cup dry white wine (or chicken broth)
1/2 onion, chopped

of mushroom soup, sour cream, wine/broth, onion, mushrooms, garlic
powder, salt and pepper. Mix all together. Arrange chicken breasts on
top of mixture. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 1 hour or

QUESO FLAMEADO
Sliced mushrooms, bell pepper & white onions strips are also
excellent in this dish. You can drizzle Everclear on this and set it
afire for a presentation with pizazz!
Ingredients:
3 cups of shredded asadero cheese
1 cup of shredded Monterey Jack
1 poblano chile
1/2 cup of Mexican chorizo
Method:
Heat the poblano chile under the broiler for five minutes on each side
or until its blackened. Place the chile in a paper sack, close it and
let the chile steam for 15 minutes. After this time, rub off the skin,
remove the stem and seeds and cut into strips.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Break up the chorizo and cook it in a skillet until it’s done, about
five minutes. Lightly grease a medium-sized cast-iron skillet or a
casserole dish and add the cheese. Top with the crumbled, cooked
chorizo and poblano strips and cook for 15 minutes or until bubbling.
Spoon out the melted queso flameado onto tortillas. Serve immediately.
Note: If you can’t find asadero cheese, Chihuahua cheese is a good
substitute. But if you can’t find it either, then use Muenster.
PARTY CREAM CHEESE
PINWHEELS
My grandkids love this stuff. I recall making it when they visit and
they'd beg for the "ends" that didn't look as pretty as the other
pinwheels. *I do not add jalapenos to the mix when preparing it for
them. I use a small can of green chilies instead.
10 large flour tortillas
2 boxes of cream cheese
1 cup pitted black olives, finely chopped
2 tablespoons pimentos, finely chopped
1 pkg ranch dressing
2 tablespoons green jalapenos, finely chopped*
Soften cream cheese. Mix in the powdered Ranch dressing. Add the
pimentos, black olives and the jalapenos.
Spread evenly over the flour tortillas using a rubber spatula. Roll
tightly. Cover and chill for about one hour. Slice into pinwheels.
MY SPECIAL POTATOES

3 chopped green onions, white and green parts separated for divided use

1 cup sour cream
Slice potatoes into quarters if large, halve if small. Heat butter and
oil in large skillet. Add potatoes and generously season with garlic
salt. Cook, over medium heat, turning frequently to cook evenly. When
potatoes are almost fork tender (will take about 20-30 minutes), add
white portion of onions and brown all nicely (add more butter if
needed). Add cheeses and stir all. Cover and cook on low until cheese
melts. Uncover, add dollops of sour cream, and top with the green
portion of onions. Serve hot.

STUFFED SOUP
Trey is an info-mercial junkie. He just had to have a GT Express 101
and even asked for one for Christmas a couple of years ago. It is a
2-section contact grill for sandwiches and other cooked foods. He still
turns out some tasty suppers and snacks using it. The following is a
great recipe and may be prepared in muffin tins and baked (bake at 350
until the tops are golden brown).
1 can (18.8 ounces) prepared chicken and corn chowder (we use cream of
chicken soup)
2 1/2 cups chicken-flavored dry stuffing mix
3 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
Combine all ingredients. Heat up Gt xpress 101 and spray with nonstick
spray. Spoon 3/4 cup of mixture into each well. Cook 7 minutes, or

GRANDMA JULIE'S
DEVILED EGGS
6 eggs, hard boiled
Prepared, bottled "sandwich spread" (see notes)
Halve the eggs, scrape out yolks. Place whites in decorative serving
dish. Mash yolks in a bowl and add enough sandwich spread to moisten.
Place mixture in a Ziplok bag, press out excess air and seal. Snip off
a corner of bag with scissors and "pipe" into the egg whites.

mayonnaise, pickle relish, and spices. Many mayo brands offer a bottled
sandwich spread. Is also good for egg salads.
Makes 12 servings.
"CHINESE BUFFET"
GREEN BEANS
Every time my family and I go to a Chinese buffet we make a bee line
for the green beans! This is a simple and tasty re-creation of that
much loved side dish, goes well with any Asian meal. Make sure to slice
the garlic, don't use a garlic press. Oyster sauce can be found in the
Asian section of your grocery store. Frozen green beans can be used
here.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon oil, peanut or sesame
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 teaspoons soy sauce
Directions:
Heat peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir
in the garlic, and cook until the edges begin to brown, about 20
seconds. Add the green beans; cook and stir until the green beans begin
to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sugar, oyster sauce, and soy
sauce. Continue cooking and stirring for several minutes until the
beans have attained the desired degree of tenderness.

cheese and frozen hash browns. Place in 9x13 dish and bake at 350 for
thirty minutes, or until bubbly.
MISH MASH
This is a recipe I fashioned after tasting it at a Steak 'n Ale
Restaurant some 35 years ago. My daughter Joanna loved this when she
was younger. Basically, what we have is a very juicy ground beef pattie
served topped by a choice of salad fixings. The key to making this is
preparing an overly-juicy meat pattie. This can be an unhealthy
project, but I have learned to make it healthier by using ice in the
meat preparation. The juices (drippings) from the patties is saved and
used so keep the fat to a minimum by using a leaner ground beef (but
not the leanest). The key to eating this is to have a bit of meat in
every salad-filled bite. Prepare your salad fixings while meat is
cooking so that the meat (and juices) will be hot when ready to plate.
You can add or subtract from the salad ingredients, and use low-fat
cheese. NO cheese is, well, too plain for my taste.
2 T Liquid Smoke
1/2 onion, finely grated
2 T Worcestershire sauce
1 T Soy Sauce
1 lb ground beef (not the leanest but good ratio of fat to meat)
a good handful of crushed ice
Mix first 4 ingredients in a large size bowl. Add beef and gently work
mixture through, taking care not to over-work the meat. Add the ice and
gently mix. Form into 3 or 4 patties. Broil patties, cooking to desired
doneness. SAVE DRIPPINGS. Medium to medium-rare is best. Prepare salad
fixings while meat cooks.
3 cups shredded lettuce
1 tomato, chopped
1/2 cucumber, chopped
1 bunch green onions, white and green parts, chopped
1 avocado, chopped
1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded finely
Place a meat pattie in the center of a dinner plate. Place a layer of
each salad ingredient on top, covering the pattie and much of the
plate. Immediately drizzle the HOT drippings over each serving. You can
doll this up with sour cream, salsa, jalapenos, what have you. It is a
meal.

BEST EVER CHEESE
BREAD
1 French baguette
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup mayonnaise
3 green onions, chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

mayonnaise and chopped green onions. Spread the mixture evenly over the
bread halves.
Bake in the preheated oven 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
SOPAPILLA CHEESECAKE
I have made this many times. Note: I have found it helpful to use a
sheet of Saran wrap upon which to roll out-press the crescent dough,
fold in half, then lay it into place.
2 cans crescent rolls
3 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
2 cups sugar (divided into 1 1/2 cups and 1/2 cup)
1 stick butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Spread one can of crescent rolls in a 9- by 13-inch pan (see above
note). (This will be the bottom crust).
Filling: Mix together cream cheese, 1 1/2 cups sugar and vanilla until
creamy. Spread over bottom crust.
Now, spread on can of crescent rolls over filling as top crust.
Pour melted butter over the top; mix remaining 1/2 cup sugar and
cinnamon, and sprinkle over the top. Bake at 350 degrees for 30
minutes.
Note: One reader experimented a little with this recipe and used
Splenda as a partial replacement for the sugar. She used 1 1/4 cups
Splenda and 1/4 cup sugar for the 1 1/2 cup of sugar in the filling,
and for the topping she used 1/4 cup each of Splenda and sugar. (The
tabletop Splenda, not the baking Splenda.) She said it was very good.

LEEK DIP
So easy! My kids and grands LOVE this one, too.

24 oz. Sour cream
Mix thoroughly; chill for 2 hours. Serve with ridged potato chips.
MY FAVORITE CHEESE
BALL
I've posted this before but it is the best cheese ball recipe around.
When it is prepared, it is a solid pecan-coated ball. S-ooo good! I
fixed this for a party recently and it was gone in a flash. I serve it
with Wheat Thins crackers but I saw people eating it with their fork
off their plates. My kids and grandkids polish this off every time I
serve it.
2 (8 oz.) pkgs. Philadelphia cream cheese
1 env. (powder form) Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix
2 green onions, tops only, chopped
1 pkg. Buddig beef, finely chopped
2 oz pkg. chopped pecans
Place cream cheese in bowl and let set until soft. Then add the
dressing, onions, and Buddig, and mix well. With hands, form into a
ball and place in container and refrigerate for two hours. After
chilling, place cream cheese ball on wax paper and roll in chopped
pecans.
BACON WRAPPED WATER
CHESTNUTS
This is another recipe that my grandkids eat with great fervor, lol.
Ingredients:
1 pound bacon
2 (8 ounce) cans water chestnuts
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup ketchup
Optional: To give this an added kick, add 2 teaspoons Sriracha or
chili/hot sauce
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut package of bacon in half. Wrap one
half strip of bacon around each water chestnut, finishing it off by
securing it with a toothpick. Bake wrapped water chestnuts in a a
shallow dish or baking sheet for 20 minutes. While water chestnuts are
baking, in a small bowl mix brown sugar, mayonnaise, Worcestershire
sauce, ketchup, and hot sauce. When wrapped water chestnuts are done
baking, remove from oven but do not turn off heat. Transfer the water
chestnuts to a paper towel covered plate to soak up bacon grease.
Carefully clean up baking dish by wiping down with paper towels. Place
the water chestnuts back on the baking sheet and pour sauce all over
them. Bake for an additional 30-40 minutes or until bacon is
crispy. Transfer to serving plate and serve hot with toothpicks intact.
Enjoy!
BENNIGAN'S CHICKEN
QUESADILLAS
I don't know a kid who doesn't love these. Even the BIG kids like me.
Add mushrooms, peppers, leftover veggies and meat, what have you.
Serves/Makes: 4
Difficulty Level: 3
Ready In: < 30 minutes
Ingredients:
1 box Old El Paso flour fajita shells
1 large ripe tomato
1/2 onion
soft butter
1 pound shredded Mexican cheese blend
1/2 package Old El Paso fajita seasoning
1/4 cup water
3 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Directions:
Start by cutting the chicken (while still slightly frozen, cuts easier)
into small squared pieces. Fry in pan then add water and seasoning to
the pan, sauce will thicken slightly after a few minutes. Set the
chicken aside while preparing the other ingredients. Butter one side of
all the fajita shells you intend on using and set aside.
Dice the tomato and the onion, mix and also set aside. Either finely
shred yourself or buy 1 pound of finely shredded Cheddar/mozzarella
cheese and set aside.
Let pan or griddle get hot about 350F and then assemble quesadillas
similar to a sandwich. First, lay one shell butter side down, then
generously sprinkle the cheese. Next add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of chicken
mixture. Now add a small amount (1/4 cup) of the tomato and onion mix.
More cheese, generously sprinkled, and finally top with another fajita
shell, butter side up.
Once the cheese starts to bubble from the sides of the quesadilla it
typically is time to flip it, make sure to either flip quickly or rest
your fingers on the top shell holding it together while you flip it.
Shell should be crunchy and a golden color. If you find that the
quesadilla is semi plump in the center, simply press down with spatula
once you have flipped it.
Let stand for a few moments and then cut into quarters, serve with your
choice of sour cream, guacamole or salsa for dipping.

FISH TACOS WITH

BROWNIE SUNDAES
My kids and grands LOVE brownie sundaes. This one uses homemade
brownies.
Brownies:
1 cup of Self-Rising Flour
2 cups of sugar
4 tablespoons of cocoa powder
4 eggs
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, melted
1 cup of chopped walnuts (optional)
powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Whipped cream (I use Cool Whip)
Chocolate syrup (I use the squeeze bottle store brand)

powdered sugar) together in a medium bowl until blended. Spread into a
9 x 13 baking dish and bake for 30 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar if
desired.

scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. Top with whipped cream and chocolate
syrup, and then serve.
GORGONZOLA SAUCE
Gorgonzola sauce is amazing served with pasta, gnocchi or even grilled
steak. This Gorgonzola sauce recipe is made with cream, Gorgonzola
cheese, white wine and chicken stock. You could substitute vegetable
stock to make it vegetarian.
This Gorgonzola sauce is best made with aged Gorgonzola, which is drier
and more crumbly than younger Gorgonzola, which is more moist and not
as flavorful. This is one time when the best you can find is better!
Most folks dislike Gorgonzola because they have eaten an inferior
cheese.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock
4 oz. crumbly Gorgonzola cheese (about 1 cup)
2 Tbsp freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Grated nutmeg to taste
Preparation:
In a large sauté pan, heat the cream, wine and stock over medium-high
heat until it starts to bubble. Lower heat and simmer gently for 15 to
20 minutes or until the liquid has reduced by about one third.
Add the Gorgonzola and Parmesan and stir until the Gorgonzola has
melted and the cheeses are fully blended. Adjust consistency with
additional cream if necessary.
Season to taste with Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper and
freshly grated nutmeg. Go easy on the nutmeg, though, as too much can
be overpowering. Serve right away.
Makes about 2 cups of Gorgonzola sauce.

Dilly Core
If you like Dill Pickles, then you would love the "Dilly Core", the
Dill Pickle Corer to make Stuffed Dill Pickles. Uncle Bill, another a2z
family member designed the corer specifically for Dill Pickles so it is
much smaller than an apple corer that often destroys a pickle. Uncle
Bill will also include his flavorful famous Dill Pickle Stuffing recipe
in every order. The "Dilly Core" is made from Stainless Steel, so it is
dishwasher safe and will not rust or tarnish. It may also be used to
core fresh cucumbers so that stuffing can be added. In addition, the
"Dilly Core" can be used to core roasts so that the cored out section
can be stuffed with your favorite herbs or spices. Contact him using
this special link: Dilly
Core. I love my Dilly Core and know you will find dozens of
uses for it in your kitchen, too.
