What would you do with a can of crushed pineapple
I've got a can of crushed pineapple I bought at Christmas and never used. Can't think of what to do with it now and would like some suggestions.
Look, here it is - we add crushed pineapple to our filling though (sm)

1 pound raisins
1 cup butter
2 cups white sugar
6 eggs, separated
3 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup milk
1 cup flaked coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
2 cups white sugar
1 1/2 cups hot water
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour

DIRECTIONS
Dedge the raisins in 1 cup flour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter and flour two 9 inch round pans.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter or margarine and sugar; add egg yolks, and beat until smooth. Mix in flour mixture in parts alternately with milk. Stir in coconut, pecans, and raisins.
In a clean bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold into batter, and then pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until done. Cool layers on wire racks.
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, flour, lemon and orange. Cook over medium heat until thickened. Stir in coconut and cook for 2 minutes. Allow to cool, and then ice cake. Alternate pecan halves and maraschino cherries halves around top of cake to form a pinwheel.
Can't wait for this one. How can jello not look like jello? LOL!!

two peas in a bucket
is a site set up by some employees of my sister's business who stole her ideas and many of her customers to start their own business. You can use them if you want but personally I think that kind of thing stinks.
If you want to go to a good scrapbooking site, go to Keeping Memories Alive or KMA. They invented scrapbooking. I think they have just sold their business but they have some pretty good discounts going right now.
Pasta and peas...
When I'm in a bind, like tonight, I take 2 jars of Bertolli alfredo sauce, add a little white wine and garlic powder and a little milk to stretch it, add frozen baby sweet peas and some ham, sometimes I get sliced and sometimes I get a ham steak. Let it cook a little and toss with linguine, top with parm, get a bag of salad and you're good to go. yummmm
Peas haven't sprouted up yet.
Good thing since the weather is being crazy with the random snow and hail.
You have fresh peas, too, in that cool northern weather of yours? :) nm

Asparagus and/or peas with mint are nice side veggies. Have everyone bring a dessert

If I had some pineapple, then I would need
some vanilla ice cream, about 4 smushed up bananas, put those ingredients together and pour sugar free Sprite over the top. That stuff is so good it is sinful. I was served that years ago and made it since but so loaded with calories hardly ever have but yum!
My grandmas jello salad
It's wonderful and I never had a thanksgiving without it (well I did have a few but I missed it). It's so so easy
1 - 8 oz package jello. (I always use black cherry, mom always used lemon).
1 - 8 oz. pckg cream cheese.
1 large can crushed pineapple.
Crushed walnuts - optional
Dissolve jello in 2 cups boiling water and add cream cheese and mix til cream cheese is blended in and no lumps. Add the can of crushed pineapple with the juice (this makes up for those 2 cups of cold water you would normally add to the jello). Throw in some chopped walnuts if you like and let set overnight.
pineapple sandwich!!
try it, you might be surprised!

Hardboiled eggs, jello, fudge, merangue, the list is endless!

A jello dish we call "raspberry stuff" that my sis makes. YUMMY!! nm

I wouldn't trim beforehand either. Just wanted to second the pineapple-brown sugar preparation
toothpicks & maraschino cherries. I place the ham in the center of the pan, do the "diamond" studding with cloves, surround the ham with pineapple slices (have to admit it, I use the ones in heavy syrup),& then off & on sprinkle more brown sugar on top of the ham & pineapples & use a baster to douse the ham with the juices. Hubby had never had a ham prepared that way before let alone with pineapple - now he looks forward to it!! Guess my age and teachings are really showing here :o)

frozen eggs
You can buy frozen egg/biscuit sandwiches in the frozen section of the grocery store (think Jimmy Dean brand)which you can then microwave, so I would assume you could make your own. The worst that could happen is do a trial run of 1 and see how it turns out. Great idea for the kids, not to mention cheaper if you make them yourself. Never thought of it, but may try it for myself! I make my own mini-TV dinners out of leftovers and freeze them and then microwave them which is another good idea in my mind.
frozen eggs
You can freeze eggs but they tend to get a little rubbery. Scambled eggs are better to freeze than fried eggs though, don't get rubbery. And eggs you cook yourself and freeze are different than the eggs you get on breakfast sandiwches you buy at the store in the freezer section. Good luck. Just thought I would share this with you. My husband is a chef, went to culinary school and all.
I have never frozen spinach myself...
but you can buy frozen spinach, it's cooked first and then when you 'cook' it you are thawing it/reheating it.
As for mushrooms, I sautee them first then freeze.

can milk be frozen?
and still be good to drink?
Don't do frozen. We get the "family"
size from Papa Murphy's.
can cubed cheese be frozen?
I have a big cheese platter left over from a party this weekend. It consists various cubed cheeses. Did anyone ever freeze cheese?
Thanks
Another frozen dinner. ( I don't cook.)
:)
Buy frozen cocktail meatballs and
cook with a can of jellied cranberry sauce and a bottle of chili sauce. Combine the 2 sauces and heat until smooth, then add the meatballs and cook until they are hot.
Never buy frozen pizza from the store
I have never found one that does not taste like eating a piece of cardboard. I have a Johnny's Pizza probably as close as the nearest store and my goodness, what terrific pizza but I also love my pepperoni and green olive stromboli. Yum, yum.
And now there's a #4, her late husband's frozen sperm!

Whatever frozen dinner I can find in the freezer
(I don't cook).
Be careful using it with a frozen casserole. I bought
the casserole. It said to bake it on a cookie sheet, so I pulled out my stone. The stone broke into 3 pieces during cooking, so I learned never to do that again. I have 2, one is black because it has been used so much, but I love them. I just don't put anything frozen solid on them anymore, including biscuits. I am probably paranoid, but after the first one I have broke like that, I feel it is just better safe than sorry.
I've used frozen dough for pizzas sm
You could make pepperoni rolls, hot ham and cheese sandwiches. You could really come up with any combination for a sandwich idea. I bet the bread will be fine if you combine it with other flavors. Maybe even baking them as usual but first brushing with butter and maybe a little parm cheese or italian seasoning to make them more tasty.
What is your favorite frozen pizza from the store?
What frozen pizza do you like? Alot of times we'll get a pizza on Friday night. Figuring a frozen is cheaper than pick up?
It's really hard not to do a drive through when you're running around on the weekends. Just wondering what others do to help cut down on the cost of eating out.
It's just me and 2 kids, 8 & 9 yr old.
Did you read the post?? She buys frozen stuffed

use frozen carrots in soups/stews/roast
I always use frozen carrots and celery and onions in my soups, stews, roasts, gravy, etc. You can either thaw them in the fridge (probably the upper part of yours) or in the microwave before throwing into the pot...otherwise start them at the beginnig of the recipe so they have a chance to get a head start over everything else and thaw that way. freezing veggies is a great way to 'use' them before they go bad. we don't eat a whole bundle of carrots or celery before the go bad so when i know they are getting close i chop them all up and freeze them. same with bananas for banana bread and the fixings for salsa. :)
Rewarmed frozen Safeway pizza from last night.
Or whip up some frozen fruity thing in the blender. Congrats! nm

Also good with frozen meatballs, jelly and chili sauce
yummy, just put in a crockpot.
Great frozen fish - halibut, blue hake, fillets; sm
I also use the packages of veggies like asparagus spears - next best thing to fresh. You don't have to use the premixed things, just buy single items that you'd like to keep on hand. Good selection of low-fat frozen yogurt and ice cream items. And I ditto the poster below about the bagel dogs - great snack food on the run!
I love the sugar free Jello. Can't tell there is no sugar. nm
!
Bertoli's shrimp scampi is awesome. In the frozen food section. Don't cook from scratch! nm
