These receipes all sound lovely! I love my food but I'm not good at making things.

I think I'll try the soup Natali - and replace the ham for eggs - as david says it sounds really easy to make. The pie also seems easy - but not sure what I'd use as a replacment for the non dairy topping.

I think i tried cornbread when I was in Washington - it was on the side with a meal - it was something that I'd never tasted anything like it but I enjoyed it. Its interetsing though - a lot of the recipies here have things I've never heard of - all the differennt type of milks and corn meals and non dairy thingy majigs!

You guys will need to send me a care package of all these goods so I can try making stuff!!

I will have a look at home and see if I have any good (but easy!) recipies!!

Ice Cream Sandwiches

My mom used to make these for us when we were little, and they still taste good on a hot summer day!


You will need:

1/2 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup peanut butter
4 cups of rice cereal (Kellogg's Rice Krispies or similar)
1 pint vanilla ice cream cut into 6 slices


In a medium size mixing bowl, stir together corn syrup and peanut butter. Add the rice cereal to the mixture. Stir until well coated. Press the mixture evenly in a buttered 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan. Place in freezer or coldest part of refrigerator until firm. Cut cereal mixture into twelve 3 inch squares. Sandwich each slice slice of ice cream between 2 squares. Freeze until firm. Cut each large sandwich in half and wrap individually in foil. Store in freezer until needed.

This recipe makes 12 sandwiches.

Ingredients:
175 gr  biscuits
150 gr  butter
200 gr  monchou or cream cheese
125 gr  caster sugar
2.5 dl  whipping cream
2 tablespoons vanilla sugar
"Whip it" (cream stabilizer)
pie filling cherries
(original cherries, you can use other)
extra:
springform Ø 22-24 cm

Crush the dry biscuits (your personal favorites) with a rolling pin (in a plastic bag). Melt the butter a little on very low heat and mix well with the biscuit crumbs. Divide the mixture in the greased springform pan to make a pie-bottom and let cool in the fridge.
Beat the cream cheese (monchou) and caster sugar creamy.
Beat the cream, vanilla sugar and "Whip it" to stiff peaks.
Fold the cream into the mon-chou mixture and divide the mixture over the bottom.
Cover the cheese cake with the pie filling (and decoration).
Let firm in the fridge for at least 2 hours.

I thought it would be a fun idea to have a recipe exchange.
I love to cook (ok, I really love to eat) and I thought it would be fun to share some of our favorite recipes with each other. Ecspecially having Brokies from all over the globe it would give us all the chance to try new stuff.
Now, I have not been educated at Le Cordon bleu! So I don't have anything fancy I usually go for what tastes good and is easy! LOL
So, if anyone is interested please feel free to contribute!


This is a favorite I make my family at the holidays:

Corn Pudding

8oz of sour cream
1 can creamed corn
1 can regular corn
one box of jiffy corn muffin mix.

Preheat oven to 350
Mix all of the above ingredients in a large bowl with a wooden spoon.
Pour into a cassarole dish.
Bake until golden brown and firm.

Sometimes I add Jalapeno's and chedder cheese to the mix and serve on top of Chili!
