Christmas or Anytime Cooking

Updated 3/2017 -- all links (except to my own posts) removed as many no longer active.


I probably won’t get most of these made this year, but am posting them for future reference to myself.  They definitely look worth trying.

H/T to @drmlb  for the link to this one:  Savory Omelet Muffins (Kath Eats Real Food Blog).  The recipe includes cottage cheese, eggs, whole wheat flour, smoked salmon, and parmesan cheese.  I make 5 muffins (a work week’s supply) and sound/look yummy.

TBTAM reposted her recipe for latkes:  The Latke Master’s Latkes

This latke recipe was good enough in 2007  to garner my blog a mention in the New York Times.  ……….

And don’t forget your dogs.  I posted a recipe for dog biscuits a few years ago.  Yesterday I made a some using another recipe.  Here it is:

2 cups whole wheat flour

1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup milk

1 tsp salt

1 Tbsp molasses

6 Tbsp butter or margarine

6 Tbsp peanut butter

1 egg

Mix all the ingredients.  Knead for two minutes.  Roll out to a little less than 1/2 inch thick.  Cut with the cookie cutters shaped like bones/hearts/fire hydrants/etc.  Bake at 325 degree for 30 minutes.

Merry Christmas!
