2 tsp spaghetti spice or seasoning

1 - 10 3/4 oz can cream of mushroom soup, undiluted

Preheat oven 400°. In a large frying pan, saute onions & pepper until tender. Add ground beef & stir until brown. While browning beef, cook spaghetti by pkg directions & drain.

Now add this to the pot with spaghetti. Mix well. Put half of the spaghetti mixture in a 9 x 13" casserole dish. Top with half of each cheese. Top with remaining spaghetti mixture. Top with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered for about 25 mins. or until good & bubbly & cheese has melted really well.

Notes: You can also add pepperoni slices on top of each layer of spaghetti mixture before adding cheese if you like. You could also use mushrooms rather than the mushroom soup. You can add olives. Try egg noodles instead of spaghetti. Serve with a tossed salad and French bread.

BALSAMIC CHICKEN & BROCCOLI

1 tb Oil, olive

2 cl Garlic, minced

1/2 sm Onion, thinly sliced and cut into thirds

Add the strips of chicken and enough of the wine to keep the meat from sticking to the pot. Cook until the chicken is white all the way through, about 5 to 7 minutes (use more wine, if needed). Remove the chicken and sauteed vegetables with a slotted spoon. Add the vinegar to the pot, increase the heat, and stir with a wooden spoon, scraping bits from the bottom, until the liquid is reduced to about half its volume. Reduce the heat. Return the chicken and sauteed vegetables to the pot, add the broccoli, mushrooms, stock, remaining wine, and salt. Cook at a gentle simmer

BLUEBERRY ALMOND CAKE WITH LAVENDER SWEET CREAM

For cake:

14 ounces almond paste

2 cups plus 3 tablespoons granulated sugar

and ground coarsely)

2 sticks butter plus 6 tablespoons, melted and cooled

1/2 pint fresh blueberries, rinsed, stems removed, gently dried

For sweet cream:

2 cups whipping cream

1 tablespoon fresh lavender (or 1 1/2 tablespoons dried lavender)

1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour a 6-cup fluted tube pan. (There will be extra cake batter, which can be used to make about 2 dozen madeleines, if you like.) Combine almond paste and sugar until thoroughly combined and grainy. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat until light, pale and fluffy. Sift together sifted flour and baking powder. Fold into almond-egg mixture. Fold ground almonds into the combined mixture. And finally, fold in the cooled melted butter.

Pour mixture into floured pan to about an inch from the top. Sprinkle top with washed and dried blueberries. (They will sink to the bottom during cooking and after turned out of pan will form the crown of the cake). Bake for approximately 35 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into the cake comes out clean. Let cool for 15 minutes before turning out of pan.

Combine cream and lavender and let steep in refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours. Pour the cream mixture through a fine strainer to remove lavender. Discard lavender. Whip cream with sugar until soft peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.

CHERRY CHEESECAKE

Cheesecake Ingredients:

3/4 cup All-purpose Flour

3 Tbs. Granulated Sugar

1 tsp. Grated Lemon Peel (divided)

6 Tbs. Butter

1 Egg Yolk; Slightly Beaten

1 tsp. Vanilla Extract (divided)

3 (8-oz.) packages Cream Cheese; Softened

1 cup Granulated Sugar

2 Tbs. All-purpose Flour

1/4 tsp. Salt

2 Large Eggs

1 Egg Yolk

1/4 cup Milk

Cherry Sauce Ingredients:

3/4 cup Granulated Sugar

2 Tbs. Cornstarch

Pinch of Salt

1/3 cup Water

4 cups Unsweetened Tart Red Cherries (Pitted)

In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and half the lemon peel. Cut in butter until the mixture is crumbly. Stir in egg yolk and 1/4 teaspoon of the vanilla. Pat one-third of the cake crust onto the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan. Bake in a 400-F degree oven for about 7 minutes, or until golden. Cool. Butter the sides of the spring form pan. Pat remaining mixture onto sides of pan to a depth of about 2 inches, and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, remaining lemon peel, and remaining vanilla until fluffy. The longer you beat the mixture the creamier the cheesecake will be, so take your time and thoroughly beat the cream cheese for at least 10 minutes.

Stir together the 1 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and the salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the cream cheese mixture. Add 2 eggs and 1 egg yolk all at one time, and continue to beat mixture at a low-speed setting until combined. Stir in milk until well blended. Turn cheesecake mixture into the crust-lined spring form pan. Bake in a 450-F degree oven for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 300-F degrees and continue to bake for 50 to 55 minutes. Watch the center of the cheesecake to make sure it appears set. Cool for at least 15 minutes. Loosen the sides of cheesecake from pan with a spatula, and continue to cool for 30 minutes, then remove the pan sides. Cool at least 2 hours prior to serving; refrigerate to store.

To prepare the cherry sauce, combine all five sauce ingredients in a saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, over medium-high heat until thick and bubbly.

Cover and refrigerate to store, but for enhanced flavor, be sure to serve at room temperature. Top already-sliced portions of cheesecake with cherry sauce just before

taking to the table - or serve side-by-side on the buffet.

Salt

8 black Greek olives

1 1/2 pounds fresh, ripe plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped

1 pound fusilli

3 tablespoons freshly grated pecorino romano

Bring pot of water large enough to hold cauliflower to a boil. Add cauliflower to boiling water. (White vegetables will taste sweeter if you do not add salt to the boiling water.) Boil cauliflower until it is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and cut into pieces no larger than 1/2 inch.

Blend together the salad dressing mix, white wine vinegar, and oil. Pour the dressing over the vegetables, and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the top of everything.

Wrap the vegetables loosely, double-folding the sealed ends of the foil. Grill about 4 inches from hot coals for about 25 minutes, or until tender, being sure to turn the

package at least once during grilling.

1 tsp. Salt

1/2 tsp. ground Nutmeg

7 cups All-purpose Flour (divided)

4 large Eggs

1/2 cup Currants

1/2 cup Raisins

2 Tbs. Water

1 Egg Yolk

Icing Ingredients:

1 cup Confectioners' Sugar

4 tsp. Milk

Dash of Salt

1/4 tsp. Vanilla Extract

Warm both the water and milk to 110-F degrees.

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water, then stir in the milk. Add this warm, milky mixture to the sugar, butter, vanilla, salt, nutmeg, and 3 cups of the flour. Beat until smooth.

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating the mixture well after each addition. Stir in the dried fruit and remaining flour, forming a soft dough.

Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 to 8 minutes.

Place the dough in a greased bowl and turn over to grease the top. Cover with a damp towel or plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, usually about 1 hour.

Punch the dough down and shape into 30 balls. Place on greased baking sheets.

Using a sharp knife, cut a cross or "X" on the top of each roll. Cover again and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.

Beat the water and egg yolk together and brush over the tops of the rolls. Bake in a pre-heated 375-F degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the icing by combining the confectioner's sugar, milk, salt, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Stir until smooth. Adjust sugar and milk to form an icing

that flows easily. Remove the buns from the oven and cool completely on wire racks.

Drizzle icing over the top of each roll following the lines of the cut cross. Store in an airtight container.

MATZOH BUTTER CRUNCH

This recipe is sublime made with unsalted butter (and that is what I use when it is not being served at the Seder meals) but still wonderful made with unsalted Passover margarine. If you choose, it can also be made with white chocolate and added chopped toasted nuts, such as almonds. You do not need any special techniques or even a candy thermometer to make it. In fact, if you are terrified of Passover baking, just make this. It's a winner.

4-6 unsalted matzoh boards or sheets

1 cup unsalted butter or unsalted Passover margarine

1 cup brown sugar - packed firmly

3/4 cup chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate - coarsely chopped

Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a cookie sheet completely with foil. Cover bottom of pan with baking parchment - on top of foil. This is very important as mixture becomes sticky

during baking. Line bottom of pan evenly with matzoh boards, cutting extra pieces of matzoh, as required, to fit any spaces on the cookie sheet as evenly as possible. Combine margarine or butter and brown sugar in a 3 quart, heavy-bottomed, saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Continue cooking 3 more minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and pour over matzoh. Caramel should be able to be poured but not too thin. Place in oven and immediately reduce heat to 350 F. Bake 15 minutes, checking every few minutes to make sure mixture is not burning. If it seems to be browning too quickly, remove from oven, lower

heat to 325 F. and replace. Remove from oven and sprinkle matzoh boards immediately with chopped chocolate or chips. Let stand 5 minutes then spread melted chocolate over matzoh. While still warm cut into squares or odd shapes. Chill in refrigerator until set. This makes a good gift. You can also serve it in confectioners' paper cups as a candy. Variation: You can also use white chocolate, coarsely chopped (or both white and dark) and chopped, toasted almonds (sprinkle on top as chocolate sets). I also use mini marshmallows, peanut butter chips etc, especially for the kids. Don't forget the baking parchment or it sticks too much to get out of the pan

MEAT PIE PIZZA STYLE

MEXICAN CHICKEN CAESAR SALAD

(like El Torito's)

For cilantro pepita dressing:

2 medium roasted Anaheim chiles, peeled and seeded

1/3 cup roasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds)

2 large garlic cloves, peeled

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 teaspoon salt

1 1/4 cups salad oil

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

5 tablespoons grated Cotija cheese (see Note)

2 small cilantro bunches, stemmed

1 1/2 cups mayonnaise

1/4 cup water

For salad:

2 corn tortillas

Vegetable oil

1 large head romaine lettuce, rinsed and spun dry

1/3 cup finely grated Cotija cheese

1 roasted, peeled red bell pepper, cut into julienne strips

4 grilled chicken breasts

1/2 cup roasted pepitas, shells off

Dressing:Place all ingredients except cilantro, mayonnaise and water in blender or food processor. Blend approximately 10 seconds, then add cilantro little by little until blended smooth. Depending on size of blender, it may be necessary to do so in batches.

Place mayonnaise and water in large stainless steel bowl, and mix with wire whip until smooth. Add blended ingredients to mayonnaise mixture, and mix thoroughly. Place in air-tight container and refrigerate. Will keep for three days.

To assemble salad: Cut corn tortillas into matchstick-size strips. Heat oil in saute pan, and fry tortilla strips until crisp. Remove with slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels. Set aside.

Tear romaine into bite-size pieces. Place greens on salad plates and ladle approximately 4 tablespoons dressing on each salad. Sprinkle each dish with Cotija cheese and tortilla strips. Arrange 4 red pepper strips like spokes on top of each salad, along with desired amount of chicken breast (you can slice the chicken into strips), and garnish with whole pepitas.

Note: Cotija cheese is a hard grating cheese found in some grocery stores and most Mexican markets. In a pinch, Parmesan could serve as a substitute.

MINT CHOCOLATE COOKIES

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon unsweetened Dutch process cocoa

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon light brown sugar

1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

3 tablespoons stick margarine

1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract

1 egg white

Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl and mix thoroughly with a whisk. Set aside. Combine sugars in a small bowl and mix well with your fingers, pressing out any lumps. (If lumps are stubborn, process in a food processor for a few seconds.) Set aside.

In a medium mixing bowl, beat butter and margarine until creamy. Add sugar mixture and peppermint extract. Beat on high speed for about 1 minute. Beat in egg white. On low speed, beat in flour mixture just until incorporated. Gather dough together with your hands and form it into a neat 9- to 10-inch log. Wrap in wax paper, twisting or folding the ends of the paper, without flattening ends of the log. Chill at least 45 minutes. (Cookies may be prepared to this point and refrigerated for up to three days or rewrapped in

foil or plastic and frozen for up to three months.)

Place racks in upper and lower third of oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Use a sharp knife to slice rounds of chilled dough a scant 1/4 inch thick. Place 1 inch apart on cookie sheets. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes. Rotate baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back about halfway through. Cookies will puff and crackle on top, then begin to settle down slightly when done. Use a metal spatula to transfer cookies to a rack. Cool cookies completely before storing or stacking. Cookies may be stored, airtight, for up to two weeks or frozen for up to two months. Makes about 40 cookies.

Heat oven to 400. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and lay the matzah in a single layer so that it completely covers the bottom of the sheet. (You can cut the matzah to fit using a very sharp serrated knife.) In a saucepan, melt the butter and sugar over low heat. Raise the heat and boil mixture for 3 minutes. Pour this over the matzah and spread. Place matzah in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove cookie sheet from the oven and immediately pour the chocolate over the matzah. Return to oven for 30 seconds. Remove from oven and quickly spread evenly over the matzah. Sprinkle with crushed nuts on top (opt.). Refrigerate for one hour or let set overnight. Cut into pieces (try a pizza wheel). Option: This can easily be made into a non-Passover treat by substituting graham crackers or saltines for the matzah.

2 tablespoons amaretto

4 fresh mint sprigs (optional)

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. In an ovenproof skillet just large enough to hold the strawberries in one layer, melt the butter in the oven 2 to 3 minutes. Watch carefully so that it does not burn. Remove the skillet from the oven and stir in 2 tablespoons of the sugar; the mixture will be grainy. Add the berries, tossing to coat them. Spread in a single layer. Roast, stirring and turning once or twice, until the berries just begin to soften and the sugar melts, about 5 minutes. Gently roll the roasted berries in the

pan syup to coat, then let them cool for about 5 minutes in the skillet. Meanwhile, whip the cream with the amaretto and the remaining granulated sugar just until soft peaks form. Divide the cream among 4 shallow dessert bowls. Arrange the lukewarm berries in the cream, pointed ends up. Using a teaspoon, dribble the pan syrup over the cream. Garnish with mint sprigs, if desired. Serve immediately. Yield 4 servings.
