  • Sweet Italian works best that I have found.
  • 4 Tbs minced roast garlic

  • 1/2 C finely minced red onion
  • 2 minced Jalapenos (Cayenne / Habenero / patins) can be substituted.

  • 1 t oregano (fresh if possible)
  • Dash of salt
  • Dash of course black pepper

DIRECTIONS:

Mix sauce ingredients in medium sauce pan and heat until steam rises, add 2 cups water and stir well, cover and simmer until reduced by 2/3. (Stir as needed, do not boil)
Remove from heat when reduction is completed.

Brush sauce lightly over sausages and cook slowly over charcoal if possible in 350 degree oven if no grill available.
Occasionally brush lightly with sauce until a good carmel crust is formed on sausage, then serve with potato rolls.

Mini Pizzas!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 can biscuits

(toppings can, of course, be altered)

DIRECTIONS:

Place biscuits on the pizza pan or cookie sheet spread apart as you would when making regular biscuits
Squash each biscuit flat
Top each biscuit with sauce and toppings
Bake for about 15 mins at 350 (or until cheese is bubbly and biscuits look cooked)

You an also place the biscuits closer together to make one large pizza rather than the small individual ones

Feta Roll-Ups

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 lb. top round roast beef, sliced thin
  • 1 lb. procuitto ham, sliced thin
  • 1 standard container feta (6 oz?)
  • Oregano
  • Good first cold-press olive oil
  • Basalmic vinegar
  • Oven to 350

DIRECTIONS:

Prepare a marinade of 1/2 cup of olive oil to 1 tablespoon of the vinegar. Use a whisk to break up the vinegar into the oil so that it's distributed. Pour into an 8x8 baking pan. Set aside.

Place a slice of the roast beef down on wax paper. Put a teaspoon of olive oil on it; spread. Place a slice of procuitto over this. Sprinkle with oregano. Repeat roast beef and ham layers three times, with oil and oregano. When the layers are three deep of each, pack 2 tablespoons of feta cheese at the bottom edge and roll up the meat and cheese. You can use toothpicks to close the sides. Assemble rest of rollups; place into baking pan with the marinade and coat well.

Bake in oven for 20 minutes. The edges of the meat should be crisp.

I serve this with Cheater's Alfredo; boil fettechini; drain quickly and put into a bowl while hot. Pour over a pint of whipping cream, and add a cup (or more ) of grated parmesean cheese. Mix well....the heat will cook the cream into a sauce.

Bon Appetit!

Cheesey-Bacony-Mushroom-Things

INGREDIENTS:

  • LARGE Mushroom, atleast about 4-5 inches in diameter is a good size.
  • Bacon
  • Cheese of favoured kind(s) I frequently use camembert or Stilton because I like strong flavours. Cheddar is also good though.

DIRECTIONS:

trim the bacon (one rasher I guess) into small pieces. and fry untill crispy. put onto the underside of mushroom (which is sat upside down on a grill) then slice/ crumble (have you ever tried cutting stilton in one piece?) cheese(s) onto the top.

place under grill until the cheese has melted.

mum has it with salad but I tend to have it with just some bread or toast or something
