Thanks that sounds great. My daughter fixed something similar once, but lost the recipe. It was really good, so I’ll be keeping this for a winter day. I do most of my baking in the winter.
A delicious no-cal salad dressing: just add a packet of sweetener to 1/2 c balsamic vinegar-—can blender w/ a ripe tomato for more flavor.
We are not big fans of guacamole. I’ve tried several recipes using avocado, but haven’t really found one we like that much. Glad to hear that a person can handle them quickly.
I had trouble with the ones we bought - I don’t think we get very good quality from the local Walmart either. I do keep some avocado oil in the refrigerator to use now and then.
The recipe sounds interesting- thanks for posting it.
Kids love "Trail Mix"......they don't know its nutritious.
Just bowl up raisins, dried apricots, chopped dates rolled in dry oatmeal, lots of bran flakes (or other sugarless cereal), honey-roasted peanuts, popcorn, pretzel sticks, chocolate chips......the idea is to add whatever you, or she, likes.
Nice TV munch. Can take it with them out to play in lidded boxes.
Thanks for posting this; I’ve never had success with crouton-making, but I’ve never tried anything but regular sandwich bread. I’ll try your recipe!

I will eat puff pastry plain! Once my husband saw a TV chef make it, and wanted to try himself. It’s a lot of time and work, and we didn’t do it again; but it turned out pretty good, and I had pastry for months of these:

Hey, you’re back!
Doin’ ok?
/johnny
Um....why were you almost-boiling whipping cream?
We have your back ;)
Missed you and glad to see you here!
Wow, now that sounds like a fun job. I wish I was near you - I’d volunteer to help and learn a lot!

I use puff pastry and make turnovers sometimes on the weekends. I just thaw one sheet, and when I say just that I mean as soon as you can unfold it I use it so it is still cold. Cut one sheet into 4 squares and dab on a tablespoon of your favorite apple or any fruit preserves. Pear is good and I also like blackberry preserves and goat cheese. Fold over into a triangle and bake at 350 for 5 minutes or so. Don’t pinch them closed too tight. Ice with a simple powdered sugar/milk icing.
Hey, FRiend....thought I’d pop in on this thread and say...SO good to see you...and that custard ice cream sounds wonderful ;-)
Or I'd be having more.
I guess I'm stuck with candy bars until tomorrow sometime. ;)
12 egg yolks per 1/2 gallon recipe.

Gee....candy bars and homemade custard ice cream....
...THAT is something I could dive right in to :)
Nothing better than homemade ice cream. I think I’d crumble up some of the candy bars into my bowl of ice cream.
