Thanks! Super easy recipe. 4 cups sugar mixed with 1 cup milk, heat med low til boiling then stir 2 minutes while boiling. Take off heat, mix in 1 and 1/2 cups PB and 2 tsp vanilla, pour into 13x9 pan and let cool. Very good, but very sweet. You can half recipe for 8x8 pan.

I'm going to try this recipe with canned boneless and skinless sardines (in water) to see if they make me actually like the fish. I mostly prefer white fish but supposedly sardines can help keep your heart healthy and this recipe seems to effortlessly allow more fish into the weekly diet.

Spaghetti alla Nerano, friend zucchini pasta with sharp provolone cheese. Three ingredients (zucchini, basil, provolone), off-the-charts flavor. Great summer dish.

Today I baked apple cranberry bread from scratch. I also tried chocolate chip banana bread for the first time. yum

French silk tart. Tasty, but not worth the work. We thought it was almost too sweet.

Edited to add: The second night we cut the pieces much smaller. That really helped.

Just finished a family weekend -- three visitors for my MIL's birthday. Made her an Italian Cream Cake. Yum!

I have been overrun with cherry tomatoes this summer. I gave some to my neighbor and she said she was making sauce with them, so I looked online and found a recipe for roasted cherry tomato sauce. It was very easy to make and tasted pretty good.

Last night I made chicken parm using almond flour and parmigiana cheese (keto friendly) for the crust on chicken. I used the cherry tomato sauce, and it was really good. I will definitely make again.

I froze three baggies of the sauce for future use. If you're overrun with cherry tomatoes this is a good use for them. I have more to pick today so I guess I will be making more sauce.

Beef enchiladas - in the oven now.

Dutch baby. First time making one, tastes kind of like a cross between a Yorkshire pudding, pancake and French toast. Ate with preserves and a little whipped cream. Good and easy to make

Today I just tested my new oven and baked lasagna for the children, it turned out very tasty, but I still need to work on the bechamel sauce, can someone share the recipe?

I make lasagna a lot and have never used a béchamel, I use a ricotta/egg/cheese mix. I never even knew this was a thing till now. But béchamel is easy, equal amounts butter (or other fat) and flour, and you add milk. Melt the fat, stir in flour, stir til no lumps and add milk. Stir then let simmer til thickened to your liking, stir occasionally. Amounts depend on your recipe. Béchamel is one of the French mother sauces, and is used in lots of recipes.

Today I made a zucchini lasagna!

I made cookies yesterday - doctored up the standard Toll House recipe because a couple of the people they were for have to watch their sugar.

I want to bake something today or tomorrow. I have some eggs I need to use, but haven't decided what to make.

Today I made a zucchini lasagna!

I am asking for suggestions to make it less watery. We enjoyed it….but really, something needed to be done about liquid in pan from the zucchini. I let it sit to firm up, but it was sitting in way too much liquid!

The recipe I use says to put the zucchini slices in the oven and bake them for 15 minutes.
Then put the lasagna together. If sliced thin enough they get slightly browned
