Cookin

These pictures are from about a week ago, when I tried 2 more easy recipes from Jenny Jones cooking website. I really liked these cinnamon rolls, although we did have to let them rise for an hour and a half---but it was cool to see how big they got! I am sure they are a lot healthier than store bought, and use less sugar. (and of course I used almond milk and low fat margarine..helps a little!)

    The macaroni was alright, but it's hard to really get a creamy consistency. I shredded a lot of sharp cheddar which was good but it didn't totally melt with the milk/flour mixture--I was going to bake it (not part of her recipe) with some parmesan cheese but decided against it since the kids probably wouldn't have eaten it then. They did like it and so did John.

  Oh and I made these stuffed mushrooms when John barbecued the other night. I didn't have bell peppers so I decided to try a new recipe with cream cheese. I liked them, but I think we all agreed the breadcrumbs and bell peppers are a better filling.

 

Here's John using his new charcoal grill :)
