Hi all and good morning! Am planning on making Barbecue Jack Chicken (that dh and I found in the Taste of Home cookbook) and am looking for some suggestions as to side dishes. One I thought might go well was the Parmesan Noodles (also in the same cookbook). Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks and have a WONDERFUL day! :) Jerilyn

Butternut Squash Raviolis w/ sweet and sour sauce

annrms — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 14:42:23 GMT

Hi, folks! There was a recipe in the Boston Globe Magazine for "Sweet and Sour Squash". I figured that I would adapt it and use butternut squash raviolis. It turned out very tasty. Perhaps you would like to try it. We had the raviolis with pork chops and steamed broccoli.

24 butternut squash raviolis (1 package of 2 from BJ's Wholesale Club) cooked, drained, and sautéed in 2 tablespoons vegetable oil until golden on both sides. Remove plate and keep warm. Add 1 more tablespoon oil (this time I used evoo), 3 cloves garlic minced. Sauté until fragrant but not browned. Add 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 sugar(2 1/2 was too sweet for us and I would use less next time) and 1/3 cup red wine vinegar. Bring to a boil, reduce to medium heat, add 1 tsp rubbed sage, salt and pepper to taste. Cook liquid down to a syrup - it will coat the back of a spoon. Return raviolis to pan and toss to coat. Reheat to desired temperature. I served them hot, but they were also great cold!! Enjoy!

Spaghetti Squash Recipe

fourwheelermama_MT — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 00:08:43 GMT

I'm new to this part of the TOH BB.

A friend gave me a spaghetti squash and told me about a casserole she'd eaten in the past that had this squash and gruyer (sp) cheese in it. She couldn't remember what else was in it.

Is it possible that someone just might have a really good recipe that contains these two items?

Thanks a bunch.

I have grown spaghetti squash for the first time this year after having it at a friends last fall. It did quite well.. Now, my question is, can I freeze it? after cooking it first that is. I would appreciate any input. Thanks. Oh, by the way I am new to this forum...=)

lovemycardinals — Sun, 03 Jun 2007 05:56:49 GMT

I am going to my Polish family reunion in July. Therefore I started to reminisce about a wonderful recipe using Saurkraut (spelling?) and potatoes? I think? Does anyone have a recipe like this or have another great saurkraut recipe? My FIL makes homemade saurkraut each year, and I have a lot to use up in my freezer. I am hoping to surprise my husband.
Thanks,

5 Minute Individual Potato Gratins

TamaraLynn — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 00:14:46 GMT

5-Minute Individual Potato Gratins

Recipe courtesy Melissa d'Arabian

Prep Time: 15 min Inactive Prep Time: hr min Cook Time: 40 min Level: Easy Serves: 4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

Vegetable spray
2 large russet potatoes, roughly peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 cup grated Swiss cheese
2 green onions, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup heavy cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Spray 8 muffin tins with vegetable spray. Layer potato slices, cheese, and onions into each muffin cup. Season
with salt and pepper and top each gratin with 1 or 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Cover with foil and bake for
30 to 40 minutes, removing the foil halfway through cooking time. Invert gratins onto plate and serve.

Spray the tins very well with Pam-the gratins tend to stick. I used Monterey Jack cheese, and no onions. These were just fabulous. I got 12 servings from 2 large potatoes.

Wal-Mart Pasta and Broccoli Salad

tbull98 — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 22:02:25 GMT

My husband and myself love this salad that our local Wal-Mart sells in the deli aisle and we would like to make it ourselves but we can't figure out the dressing. It has Spiral noodle, Broccoli flowerettes, Cheddar Cheese and Red Onion. I think they call it Broccoli Cheddar Pasta or something like that. We have asked the ladies behind the counter and they don't know becuase it comes prepackaged but they think it might be a coleslaw dressing. Unfortunately we are to much of a chicken to just experiment. So if someone could help us out it would greatly be appreciated.

Monterey Spaghetti~~~

creid — Mon, 09 Sep 2002 23:12:45 GMT

4 oz spaghetti, broken into 2-inch pieces
1 egg
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp garlic powder
3 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
1 can (3 ounces) french fried onions (used to be called Durkees)

This is a crock pot recipe, but I can't see why you couldn't put it in the oven. This is a great side dish for plain beef meals, or left overs.

Spray the crockpot with Pam. Cook spaghetti for 5-7 minutes. Drain well. In a small bowl, beat the egg. Transfer the egg to the crockpot. Add sour cream, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder...stir together. Add in the cooked spaghetti, 2 cups of the Jack cheese. the drained spinach and half of the can of Durkee onions. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or High for 3-4 hours. In the last 30 minutes, turn to High if not already there, and add to top of casserole the remainder of the Monterey Jack cheese and the Durkee onions. Leave the lid off...serve when the cheese is melted.

Hash Brown Potato Casserole

indyborn54 — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 18:10:50 GMT

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me with a recipe I'm looking for. I found it quite a while back in an issue of Taste of Home magazine and actually made if for my family several times and they loved it. Because I am always trying new recipes, this one got put aside and I forgot about it until recently when I wanted to make it again; and wouldn't you know, I can't find the recipe!! The only ingredients that I can remember are the frozen potatoes, cheese and beef broth. Can someone please help me?

ISO Homemade Macaroni & Cheese

IrisWi — Sun, 28 Jun 2009 03:47:11 GMT

Searched the TOH Side Dishes, nothing jumped out at me. The use of cottage cheese did not appeal to me, nor did the use of mustard. I like the idea of using two or more cheeses. I know in other dishes that makes a difference.

Any ideas?
