Here is the Blueberry Cobbler Recipe


I will post the cabbage rolls and yeast rolls above this one.

Blueberry Cobbler

1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
dash of salt
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 stick butter
1 bag of frozen blueberries (you can make this with canned peaches, just drain and freeze the peaches)

Preheat oven to 350.

Melt the stick of butter in the pan you will bake in. I use a 9x9.

Mix all ingredients except fruit together and pour over melted butter.
Sprinkle the fruit around the top of the batter.

Bake for about an hour.

Chile Con Queso

Chile Con Queso

Brown ground meat in pan sprayed with cooking spray. I used 93/7 so that I wouldn't have to drain the fat. If you use a different one you may have to drain fat.

Add onions while browning the meat and saute together.

Cut up a 32 oz loaf of velveeta cheese.

Add cut up velveeta and a can of undrained rotel once the meat is browned and onions are tender.

Once the cheese is all melted, keep warm on low in a crockpot. I used a crockpot liner for easy clean up.


Tuna Dip


This is for the non cheese lover of our family (Hi Leslie lol). We all do eat it though lol.

Tuna Dip

One can of tuna in oil

One can of cream of mushroom soup

Mix both together in bowl.

Enjoy with tortilla chips or fritos.

Here is the first of many posts today




I thought I would blog each of the recipes I am making today.

Here is the first.


          
Splenda Chocolate Cake

Start by spraying a 9 x 13 pan with canola cooking spray.



Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place a stick of butter in large bowl. It helps alot if the butter has sat out and softened.

Add  1 1/2 cups splenda.

Add 1 cup milk.


Add 1/2 cup fat free half and half.



Add 2 eggs.





Add 1 tsp vanilla.



Mix. It will be lumpy from the butter. This is ok.



In another bowl mix 2 1/4 cups cake flour.

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda.

Mix all of those together then add them to the wet mixture and stir together to combine.



Pour into prepared pan and bake for 14 to 18 minutes or till toothpick comes out clean from center.


 Allow to cool completely on wire rack. Cut into 12 servings.

Steak in a gravy


Cajun Steak in a Gravy




Start by cutting up onions, bell pepper, celery and garlic. 

Next get a dry black iron pot hot. Season meat with salt and pepper then brown on both sides. Remove meat from pan. Add a tablespoon of oil, and all of the veggies except for the garlic. Once there is a little moisture from the veggies, add the garlic.


Once the veggies are tender, add a little flour, couple or so tablespoons. Stir in well to the veggies and cook a minute or so to get rid of the raw flour taste.  I added the broth and if it needs to be darker you can add the kitchen bouquet.  Now just simmer, stirring occasionally till meat is tender and gravy has thickened a little.

Enjoy!
