Roasted Cabbage,Onions and Garlic

I revamped a recipe I posted a couple of weeks ago.
Tonight: this is what I did.   Chopped up some cabbage
and one onion and also cut four large cloves of garlic
into smaller pieces.   I put on a greased pan and then
added a bit of olive oil and some apple cider and tossed
it all together

Roasted at 400 for 25 minutes, (stirring occasionally)
and then sliced up a fresh tomato and put on top and
roasted for about 20 minutes more.  oh, almost forgot
the parmesan cheese on top right after the tomatos
were added.

THIS IS DELICIOUS

Pumpkin Bundt Cake



THE BASIC TWO INGREDIENTS ARE: 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease and flour a bundt cake pan. I read the reviews which complained about the cake batter being very thick and hard to spread in cake pan.  I beat up two eggs, a quarter cup of applesauce, added 1/4 cup of milk and 1/4 cup of orange juice, stirred together and then put the cake mix in and used my electric mixer to combine everything and then put into the bundt for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven,(IT TOOK LONGER) or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool and serve, or store in the refrigerator.  I made a glaze of one small container of vanilla pudding and a bit of pineapple juice.  (could use any juice)

Eggplant Pizza

I sliced an eggplant and grilled the slices on top of the stove on a lightly oiled "grill pan"....about three minutes each side.  Then put on a foil lined cookie sheet.  I put a large dab of spag. sauce on each one, then some shredded mozzerella cheese, a slice of tomato and some small pieces pepperoni.  Then some garlic pepper and then I drizzled some olive oil on the top of each.

 Into the oven (400 degrees for about 17 minutes).

Delicious
You can't pick them up and eat them like regular pizza. A fork and knife are necessary.

one eggplant sliced and dipped in olive oil, sprinkled with

roasted at 400 degrees until tender, then cut into bite sized
pieces.

1/3 lb spaghetti cooked

one can of mushrooms

ham (couple of ounces cut into small pieces)


I put a very thin layer of spaghetti sauce on the bottom of a
9 by 13 pan.  Then a later of spaghetti and then layered the other
ingredients (making sure to have three layers of spaghetti)
I then poured the egg/milk mixture over it all, and then poured
the white sauce over that.  Sliced the tomatoes and put on top,
and tucked the croutons around the tomatoes

covered pan with foil and baked at 375 degrees for 30 minutes,
then removed foil and put under broiler for a couple of minutes
let it sit for five minutes before serving.
