It comes from "Electric Bread, Second Edition", a bread machine cookbook that has recipes for those who are ready for something "different." The kitchen smells just incredible when this bread is baking. http://www.grouprecipes.com/42197/onion-bread-for-machines.html Last week I sat and watched the Food Network as I recovered from surgery (and prayed for Death to come). A program called "Cheaters" was on and the lady showed this great cookie recipe. Helpless as I was, I said, "I can do this!" And yesterday I did. These are so simple and so wonderful, that any guest will think you went to the local gourmet bakery and spent beaucoup bucks! http://www.grouprecipes.com/30836/hazelnut-and-apricot-quickie-cookies.html I came across this spanokopita recipe many years ago and I think this is one of the best I have ever made. Once you get the hang of using filo dough, you can make some pretty wonderful things. http://www.grouprecipes.com/19752/spanokopita-or-greek-spinach-pie.html This is a recipe that came from either a Cooking Light or Gourmet magaine YEARS ago when I was looking for a low fat, low calorie main dish. This tastes wonderful, very distinctive flavor of Parmesan and spinach--protein, carb, and veg all in one. http://www.grouprecipes.com/19751/lean-portola-valley-chicken.html This is a Kraft Foods recipe that I found on a calendar Kraft sent me last year. (I hope they send me one for 2008 too!) I finally got around to making them tonight and omigoodness, are they wonderful! Baked, not fried. http://www.grouprecipes.com/19486/coconut-shrimp.html This recipe belongs to Henrie and can be found on her page. I just wanted to share the photos with you. I don't think they're professional enough to put on her beautiful pages, but I think these photos will persuade you to try it. They couldn't be easier to make! http://www.grouprecipes.com/19399/land-of-nod.html This poundcake was a recipe my Dad used. I don't know where he acquired it, but he was an excellent baker and put us all to shame. This recipe looks deceivingly plain, but it is one of the best and richest cakes I've ever eaten. The tang of the cream cheese comes right through. http://www.grouprecipes.com/17927/cream-cheese-poundcake.html I can't make a pie crust to save my life. Thank heaven Pillsbury does such an incredible job with their refrigerated piecrusts. You just unroll 'em and use 'em and no one is the wiser. This apple recipe is one that is on the side of the box and is as it is titled: Perfect! http://www.grouprecipes.com/17925/perfect-apple-pie.html This is the first thing I learned to cook when I was a girl. My mother worked all day and I had to help out. Mama bought a "Betty Crocker's Cook Book for Boys and Girls" for me and this recipe became a favorite. I'm now a grandma and I'm still making this recipe, albeit with garlic and some chopped celery! Leftovers make the BEST sandwiches. http://www.grouprecipes.com/17874/bettys-meat-loaf.html This is a crazy recipe I clipped from the "Confidential Chat" section of the Boston Globe at least 20 years ago. there are only 4 ingredients, and a wacky combination at that, but oh my goodness, are they good! I said it serves 4-5, but my son and my husband can inhale all of them in a matter of minutes. http://www.grouprecipes.com/17518/sticky-maple-chicken-wings.html
