Ingredients
Directions We season upon eating as DH can't have pepper and I try to avoid salt but you could add to taste. Mix well with hands and pat into a circle. I put this into my crockpot over a rack that I made from bending a cheap cooling rack. I've also tried and like the new crockpot cooking bags. Cook on low 8 plus hours or on high for 4 hours. For the first meal we had company and ate this with mashed potatoes and corn. For the second meal we sliced, grilled and made sandwiches out of the meatloaf. I made the third meal for lunch today: I baked a 5 lb bag of potatoes during AMC yesterday. Today I used an ice cream scoop to scoop out the baked potatoes, then I mashed them. I set the oven for 350 degrees F. I used about a pound of the meatloaf crumbled and heated with one cup milk and half a stick of Velveeta light cheese, I then stirred the mashed potatoes into the meat and cheese mixture and filled in the potato shells. I baked them for 20 minutes in a pre heated oven. They were Yummy! By Karen from Easthampton, MA Post Feedback: http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf26591899.tip.html Ingredients
Directions Brown the hotdog and onion together over medium heat until onions are golden and hot dogs heated through. Mix together hotdog mix with macaroni. Pour can cream soup in casserole dish. Fill can half way up with milk and mix with cream soup. Pour in hotdogs and macaroni and mix all together. If I have cheese on hand, I throw some on top. I also like to crumble up some Ritz crackers for an extra something and put them on top. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes. This recipe is easy to double, quadruple or whatever. Also, I generally use whatever pasta I have on hand such as rotini, shells, bowties, or whatever... I've also used sausage instead of hot dogs. This is very versatile. Have fun!

Add flour and salt; stir to form a smooth paste. Gradually add milk; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook and stir 2 minutes more or until thickened. Remove from heat. Stir in 3/4 cup cheese until melted; pour over cauliflower. May refrigerated overnight at this point. Cover and bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining cheese; return to oven, uncovered for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serves-6-8 By Jan E from Suring, WI Post Feedback: http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf78177403.tip.html My First Recipe: Fried Chicken For The Minister My First Recipe: Mother was away and Dad and I invited our Presbyterian minister to dinner. (What were we thinking?) I had helped Mother in the kitchen, but had never prepared dinner on my own. I used one of her cookbooks and fried chicken and mashed the potatoes. I did not use a cookbook when I cooked the fresh lima beans (big mistake). Everything came out fine except the beans. I had boiled them for a reasonable length of time (with the pot lid off!), but when I served them, I found they were hard as rocks--and about as tasty. The two men smiled and complimented me, but I remember they sort of pushed around the beans. I was about 15 and mortified! (Had a crush on the good-looking minister, which added to my chagrin!) Later found out the beans take quite a while to cook--and do put the top on. I'm now 76 and recall this as yesterday. Post Feedback: http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf79766333.tip.html Ingredients
Directions Melt the butter in a skillet and cook the onion, celery and bread crumbs in it until they are golden. Stir in the turkey, salt and pepper to taste, and enough gravy or broth to make it hold together. Spoon into hot buns or onto slices of toast. Serve piping hot.
