Well, since that worked, let's see if it will accept a recipe from me!

SAVORY CHEESY BREAD

1 loaf (1 pound) French bread

1 carton (8 ounces) garlic & herb cream cheese spread

1 cup mayonnaise

2 cups (8 ounces) Italian-blend shredded cheese

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 350°F.  Set aside an ungreased baking sheet.

Cut French bread loaf in half lengthwise & then widthwise.  Spread cut sides evenly with garlic & herb cream cheese spread.

In a medium bowl, stir together mayonnaise, Italian-blend shredded cheese & grated Parmesan cheese until blended.

Spread over cream cheese layer on bread.  Arrange bread on baking sheet.

Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted.  [If desired, broil 4 - 6 inches from heat for 3 - 4 minutes or until golden-brown.]  Remove from oven.  Slice & serve warm.

Tuna Pasta Salad

Ingredients

16 oz elbows cooked to pkg directions 

3 4 oz cans tuna in water drained

4 hard-boiled eggs chopped                   

1 cup frozen peas defrosted

1/2 cup red onion diced fine

1 1/2 cup mayo (Mayo & Miracle Whip)

2 tsp seasoning salt

3-4 Tbsp sugar

pepper to taste

Instructions

Cook your pasta.   Cool pasta.

1. In large bowl add your tuna, eggs, onion and peas.
   
   
2. Add in your drained pasta and stir to combine, set aside.
   
   
3. In smaller bowl whisk together mayo, seasoning salt, sugar, salt & pepper until combined.
   
   
4. Pour over your pasta, scraping the bowl to make sure you get all the dressing mixture then stir to coat everything evenly. 
   
   
5. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to at least an hour to chill and let pasta soak up some of the dressing

• A fun way to defrost peas quickly is to add it to the end of your cooking process for your noodles, we have done that many times in the past and it works like a charm.

@ Zhill,
How much milk is needed for the Tuna Pasta Salad? It's not listed in the ingredients. I think it iwill be a perfect summer salad.... maybe I will occasionally switch Costco's Kirkland canned chicken for the tuna.

Next ingredient: Soy sauce




Thanks for all your postings.

@vabreeze   I didn't use milk.  Just forgot to remove it!  Thanks for catching my boo-boo!

You could add it if you want it creamier!  Just to taste!

Next ingredient: Sausage (any)

[AngelWings64]

I've just about given up on getting into these forums or getting anything posted.  But will give this another try.  So, instead of a recipe WITH sausage, how about a recipe FOR sausage:

Family Favorite Breakfast Sausage

1 Tablespoon packed brown sugar

2 teaspoons dried sage

¼ teaspoon dried marjoram

1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1 pinch ground cloves

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 pound ground pork

In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, dried sage, dried marjoram, crushed red pepper flakes, ground cloves, salt & ground black pepper until well-mixed.

Place ground pork in a large bowl.  Sprinkle with spice mixture; with hands, mix until spices are well-combined.  Form mixture into patties.

In a large skillet, over MEDIUM-HIGH heat, cook patties about 5 minutes per side (OR until internal temperature reaches 160°F).

NEXT INGREDIENT:  Peaches (fresh, frozen or canned)

A special summer dessert for special occasion ......

Luscious PEACH Trifle

2 small packages instant French Vanilla Pudding

4 cups of milk for the pudding

1 pre-made angel food cake

1 cup whipped topping

6 cups fresh PEACHES, peeled and sliced

Fruit Freeze Powder

Toasted almonds for garnish, optional

Prepare the pudding mix with milk as instructed on package; set aside.  Slice cake into 1" cubes.  Coat PEACHES with fruit freeze powder to prevent browning according to package directions.

Place half of the cake cubes into a trifle dish or other glass dish about 2-3 quart size.  Cover cake with half of the sliced PEACHES and top those with half of the pudding.

Repeat layers and top with whipped topping.  Garnish as desired.  Refrigerate until serving.

Serves 8-10.
