Profile For dule3296 -
I am a 40 year old wife and mother.  I work part time, volunteer at my Son's school, and I am a christian.  I love people - especially children, animals, surfing the net, reading, & cooking.  My favorite quote is John 3:16   For God so loved the world that He gave his only Son so that whoever believes in Him but shall have eternal life.

RE: Crock Pot Stroganoff
Sounds good, but I have never heard of stroganoff without sour cream in it. Did you accidentally leave the part out where you stir it in before serving? ... View related article.

RE: Sausage Stromboli
Sounds delicious BUT after you let it rise for 30 minutes (at the end of the recipe) WHAT do you do next? How long do you bake it & at what temperature? I would LOVE to make this if I had the rest of the directions. THANKS! ... View related article.

RE: Vegetable and Bacon Slice without Pastry
Sounds yummy BUT how much is a RASH of bacon? One slice, one pound? I'd like to know so I can make it. THANKS!

Editor's Note: From what I've been able to see in other recipes, I think it is a slice but that is just a guess. ... View related article.

RE: Easy Cinnamon Rolls Recipe
These are SUPER EASY and delicious any time of the year.....not just Christmas!

_________________________________________________

Christmas Eve Shortcut Cinnamon Buns
Makes 20 buns

These are made the night before and popped in the oven Christmas morning
when the kids are attacking their stockings!

20 unbaked frozen dinner rolls (Bridgeport is a brand I have used)
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup instant vanilla pudding mix
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/3 cup butter, melted

Lightly grease a 10 inch bundt cake pan. Place frozen
rolls into the pan and sprinkle with brown sugar, the pudding mix,
and cinnamon. Pour melted butter over the top. If you dont have a bundt
pan, you can use a muffin tin, but they turn out better in a bundt pan.

Cover with a clean, damp cloth and leave overnight at room temperature to
rise.

In the morning, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Bake rolls for 25 minutes, until golden brown.
Turn rolls out onto a serving plate and dig in!

RE: Liberty Belle (DSH Tortie)
What a beautiful kitty! I am 40 & have had cats all of my life. I have never refused to give one food when they were hungry and believe me they let me know. I hope you take good care of her. I'll bet she is a sweetie! ... View related article.

RE: Vegetable Beef Casserole
This sounds like a wonderful recipe, but would it still turn out okay if you browned & drained the ground beef first? This would SIGNIFICANTLY the lower the fat content of this casserole. Have you ever tried it this way? Also this would reduce the liquid in the recipe so it might need appx. 1/4 to 1/3 cup of liquid or beef broth. ... View related article.

RE: Easy Stir Fry Recipes
Here is an easy stir fry recipe that would work well with beef or pork. The dark brown sauce it makes is delicious! You could also substitute any veggies used in stir fry recipes; some are: baby corn, water chestnuts, broccoli, cauliflower, zuccinni. Serve this recipe over steamed or fried rice.

Asian Beef

1 1/2 pounds top round steak or sirloin -- cut into strips
1/4 cup dry sherry -- optional (I use beef broth)
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon ginger, freshly grated
2 cloves garlic, pressed (or more)
2 teaspoons sesame oil
(found in the Asian section of your grocery store)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
4 tablespoons vegetable oil -- divided
12 ounces mushrooms -- sliced
6 ounces snow peas (frozen if fresh aren't available)

In a large bowl, combine sherry or broth, soy sauce, ginger, garlic,
sesame oil and cornstarch; pour over meat strips, stirring to
coat.

In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over a
medium high heat.

Add mushrooms and pea pods, stir frying until pea pods are
bright green and mushrooms are wilted. Remove from skillet and
set aside.

Drain marinade from beef and reserve. Add remaining oil to
skillet.

Stir-fry beef (1/2 at a time), 1 to 2 minutes. Return
vegetables, beef and marinade to skillet; cook and stir until
sauce is cooked and thickens. Let cool slightly.

RE: Making Biscuits and Gravy With Bacon Grease
You can make gravy from sausage OR BACON the same way. The way I do mine is I use 2 T grease from either one, 2 T flour. Add the flour to the grease & let it get bubbly for about a minute. Don't let it burn or get to brown, just light brown. Then I slowly add 2 cups of milk while stirring. Bring this mixture to a gentle boil until thickened. Add salt & pepper to taste. The final touch is to add some crumbled up sausage or bacon at the very end. hope this helps! ... View related article.

RE: Toto (Poodle/Spitz)
Kim, I looked up Spitz on the internet & Toto looks the most like a German Spitz. As far as how to get one, I just got lucky. Check with local vets, the animal shelter near you, & do a search on the internet for breeders in your area. Good Luck!

Sandy, I got him 2 weeks ago (he was 7 weeks old when I got him). He is happy, well adjusted & healthy. Yes we have been to the vet for baby shots & worming. ... View related article.
