Four Food on Friday #37
Written by Lisa on July 11, 2008 – 1:00 am -Okay, I have forgotten to do this for several weeks now, but I am going to try to get back into the groove of doing these again. If you want to join, check out Fun, Crafts, and Recipes.
#1. Cake. Buttercream, whipped cream or ice cream? I like all cake. Since I am lactose intolerant, I prefer not to eat ice cream cake even though I do like it.
#2. When entertaining do you use real, paper, plastic or styrofoam dishes? If we are having a big party, plastic and styrofoam. If its just immediate family, real because I have a dish washer.
#3. When hosting a party do you cook, have it catered or go to a restaurant? Cook.
#4. Share a recipe that you frequently serve when having a party.
Potato Salad – 10 lbs
10 lbs. potatoes
3 – 4 hard-boiled eggs
1 bottle of mayo
Mustard
½ lid white vinegar
½ cup milk
Sugar
Onion
Boil water with potatoes for approx. 30 minutes – 1 hr. Drain and put in fridge overnight.
Boil cold water and 3 – 4 eggs for 7 – 10 minutes. Drain and put in fridge overnight.
The next day, peel and slice potatoes. Mix mayo and mustard till yellow and add vinegar. Add in milk, salt, and pepper. Taste, if bitter add sugar.
In separate bowl, put a layer of potatoes, seasoning, hard-boiled eggs, diced onions, and mayo mixture and stir. Repeat until you have all the ingredients in there and mixed. Put in refrigerator and let sit overnight before serving.

Four Foods On Friday #26
Written by Lisa on April 24, 2008 – 2:08 pm -Here is the Four Foods On Friday for this week. This is a great meme to be a part of. You don’t have to have a cooking blog to join in either! The only thing I would change is that I like it when the fourth question is a recipe better. I get a lot of good ideas from others!
#1. When going out to dinner what items do your order? Appetizers, soup, salad, dinner, dessert. When we are with the kids, we get dinner and then leave. When it’s just my husband and I, we get the whole nine yards.
#2. How predictable are you when eating out? Do you usually order a meal that you’ve had before or do you like to try new things? Very predictable. I always order the same thing.
#3. When eating at a restaurant, what beverage do you like to order with your meal? Sprite or a strawberry margarita.
#4. Name a meal that you ate at a restaurant that you liked so much you tried to recreate it, as well as the name of the restaurant and the recipe. Honestly, I am not a good enough cook to even try to recreate anything.

#1. What’s your favorite food smell? Pork chops. The funny thing is that I really don’t like to eat them all that much but I love how they smell when they are cooking.
#2. What’s your favorite kind of apple? Ummm apple pie? I don’t really eat just apples.
#3. What veggies do you like in your salad? Carrots.

1 1/4 shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Preheat over to 350 degrees F. Coat a 13×9 baking dish with cooking spray.
Prepare the noodles according to the packaging directions. Drain noodles. Rinse with cool water; drain again. Lay noodles flat on wax paper.
Cook the ground beef, onion, garlic in a skillet until browned. Drain fat. Add pasta sauce and heat to a boil. Spread 2 cups of meat sauce into prepared baking dish.
Mix ricotta and 1 cup mozzarella in a large bowl. Spread cheese mixture over each noodle.

Four Foods on Friday #22
Written by Lisa on March 27, 2008 – 2:28 pm -Yes, its that time again this week for Four Foods on Friday. The questions this week are very interesting:
#1. What’s your favorite form of potatoes? French Fries
#2. Pie crust. Premade or from scratch? Premade — I don’t think I even know how to make one from scratch
#3. Vegetables. Fresh, frozen or canned? Canned
#4. What one dish do you wish you could prepare better? Lasagna and this is because my oven is not working, so its guess workwork on when it is actually done. I’m in the process of looking for a new stove, so that should solve my problem.
