September Recipe Exchange: Food for Thought

With school back in session, dinner often seems to come at an inopportune time. It is so much easier when dinner just prepares itself. Bring your best crock pot recipes or quick fix dinners to September's Recipe Exchange Wednesday September 9, 7:45 pm at the Tovar's home (9034 Broadmoor Bend).


Once you have decided on your recipe, please leave it as a comment on this post or send me an email so we can add it to the final post.

Please submit your recipe even if you can't make it. The downside to this option though is the rest of us will miss your company as well as sampling the recipe.

  1. Here's my recipe:

    Roast
    1 can Cream of Mushroom
    1 pkg Onion Soup Mix
    Nature's Seasoning
    Garlic Salt

    Combine the soups and salts. Put on top of roast (you can cut it up into strips too).

    Potatoes
    Carrots

    Cut up the potatoes into bite sized and use baby carrots. Put those in the crock pot too, and cook for 4 hours. Great for cooking on Sunday during church!

  3. Hot Fudge Pudding Cake (Danielle Neuffer)

    (This is a great recipe for when I need a dessert at the last minute. I usually have all the ingredients on hand at any given time and it is easy to make)

    1 c flour
    2 tsp baking powder
    1/4 tsp salt
    3/4 cup sugar
    2 Tbsp cocoa
    1/2 c milk
    2 Tbsp butter, melted
    1 c chopped nuts, optional

    1 c brown sugar
    1/4 c cocoa
    1 3/4 c hot water

    Heat oven to 350. Blend flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and 2 Tbsp cocoa in a bowl. Stir in milk and melted butter. Blend in nuts if desired. Spread in greased square 9x9 pan. Sprinkle with brown sugar and 1/4 c cocoa mixture. Pour hot water over entire batter. Bake 40 minutes.

    During the baking, the cake mixture rises to the top and a thick hot chocolate sauce settles to the bottom. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
