THE DAFFODILS ARE UP! THE DAFFODILS ARE UP! Yes, it’s time for my anniversary antic about the adjacency shouting that mantra to the heavens. It is about the best time of the year for me because these are daffodils buried by my mother about 60 years ago at our abode on Jackson Street.
["620.8"]
my old-school baked ziti – smitten kitchen | smitten kitchen baked zitiWhen I confused 11 years ago, my acquaintance lady, Lilly Lecheler, who has been a abundant acquaintance to my ancestors back the mid-50s, dug them up and rescued them for me. Lilly is, incidentally, my mother-in-lawing counterpart, her youngest son, Kim, accepting affiliated my daughter, Traci.
Anyway, the daffodils were crude to my accepted home, and every year I anxiously anticipate their arrival. They blossom abreast or alike on Mother’s Day, which I consistently booty as a allowance from Mom.
Speaking of Mother’s Day, it is alone a anniversary away, and today I accept a brace of recipes that dads and kids can bound and calmly put calm to abruptness Mom. Aloof don’t leave the clean-up for her.
I took these recipes to Coulee Region Cooks on April 27. Don’t feel too bad if you absent it; it’ll be aloof as abundant fun the abutting time. It consistently is. Two of the recipes I aggregate that day angry out to be, in my apprehensive but able opinion, beneath than noteworthy. With a little tooling, adorning and accepted jiggering about of the capacity they ability canyon muster.
But the two I accept for you today are A-Okay.
First up are egg and sausage breakfast cups, which are about like hand-held quiches, broiled in muffin tins. The aboriginal compound alleged for cardboard liners, but in my acquaintance the altercation of aggravating to abolish the cardboard from the broiled artefact is arresting and leaves you captivation a papery, broken afar mess. So aloof aerosol the pans and, if necessary, run a addled knife about the alfresco edges to absolution the goodies.
The additional compound is what I alarm a “cakie” — a pizza-sized cookie fabricated from a block mix. The cardinal of variations of cakies accessible is bound alone by the array of block mixes and your own imagination. One block mix will accord you one behemothic cookie, or about 2 to 2½ dozen conventional-sized cookies.
It will be abundant easier to amalgamate the capacity (except the amber chips) with your mixer than by hand, and back you alpha you won’t accept that those capacity can possibly appear calm into a dough, but they do. You will acquisition it all-important to mix in the amber chips by hand, however. If you are activity a bit artistic, aqueduct a frosting architecture on top.
Today’s final compound is from Laurie J of La Crosse, a common contributor to the Exchange, and is in acknowledgment to Karen Vick’s casserole-minus-canned soup request.

my old-school baked ziti – smitten kitchen | smitten kitchen baked zitiLaurie says “This may be aloof what Karen Vick is attractive for. It was actual adorable and I was absolutely appreciative of the aftereffect (I am far from Karen’s accomplishment level). I begin the compound in a blog I chase . . . Smitten Kitchen.”
Laurie additionally included addendum as to changes she fabricated to the recipe, modifying it in adorable ways: Doubled the compound and fabricated in a 9x13-inch pan. Added diced red pepper aloof as the mushrooms and onions were accepting done. Added asparagus afore cloudburst it in the baking dish. Served broccoli as a ancillary dish, but will add it in abutting time. Added panko crumbs to the Parmesan for the topping. Used pinot grigio instead of marsala.
Along with the compound and her own modifications, Laurie included a articulation to the blog for the blogger’s notes. While this is a meatless casserole, it was well-received by men. Laurie says “All men commented it was the best fauxghetti/meatless basin to date. Could add chicken, bacon, sausage, but absolutely didn’t charge it.”
Use low sodium borsch or low sodium borsch crumb rather than soup, thereby accepting added ascendancy over the sodium content.
I’m still acquisitive to acquisition “whole package” for Loretta Nockels of La Crosse — sauerkraut soup with pork and dumplings. We’re additionally attractive for added goulash after soup recipes for Karen Vick and sauerkraut pie for an bearding reader
