I love to eat, and I actually think I'm getting to an age where I should start journaling my favorite recipes for when I move out/get married. So I'm going to do my 3 favorites :) Lasagne, Blueberry Cake, & Cheese sauce.
Let's start with the easiest!
My grandma's cheese sauce!(not to be confused with my grandpaws cheese sauce, that stuff is nasty.):
Ingredients:
Milk
Velveeta
Sharp cheddar cheese
Flour (to ratio of milk. approx 1/8 cup flour to 2 cups milk.)
Mustard powder
Combine milk in a saucepan with flour and just a pinch of mustard powder on high heat. Stir until the mixture starts to rise, turn off burner and let the mixture sit to thicken. Next add equal parts of the cheeses heat to mix and stir constantly so that it doesn't burn.
This sauce it good over chips, noodles, baked potatoes. anything really. Yummm. Thank you grandma!
Grandma's lasagne!:
3 1/2 c. canned tomatoes 8 oz pkg. mozzarella cheese
8 oz can tomato sauce 1 c. cream-style cottage cheese
1 envelope spaghetti sauce mix 1/2 c. greated parmesean cheese
2 cloves minced garlic
1 box lasagne noodles 1 can black olives, sliced
Cook noodles, strain, rinse w/ cold water, and set aside. Combine tomatoes, tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce mix, and garlic in a pan. Cover and let simmer 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. Salt to taste. place HALF (usually 4) of the noodles in a baking dish, cover with a third of the sauce, half the mozzarella, black olives, and half the cottage cheese. Repeat layers, ending with sauce. Top with parmesean cheese. Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes.
Mrs. Schauer's Blueberry Cake:
Mix together 1 c. butter
3/4 c. sugar
2 eggs
pinch of salt
add 2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. lemon juice
little water
grease and flour baking pan. Top with 2-3 pts. blueberries & bake.
This made me ridiculously hungry. I'm going to do it more often :) I'm typing this all from my brand new laptop by the way. What a huge blessing!
