Bruce's "Aunt Ruth's" Carrot Casserole

2 bunches of carrots, peeled and sliced into strips (carrot sticks)
1 cup mayonnaise
2 T dry instant onions ( I have also used just sautéed onions)
1 T. horseradish
Salt and Pepper to taste
chopped fresh parsley (you can substitute dry, but fresh is better)
4 T. melted butter
Bread crumbs (prepared) or about equivalent of 3 slices bread.

cook the carrots in water for about 15 minutes reserve 1/2 cup liquid from cooking, when you drain them.

Spread carrots in shallow baking dish

Mix together the reserved liquid
Mayo, Horseradish, onions S&P and pour over the carrots

Sprinkle bread crumbs and chopped parsley over drizzle with the butter

Bake @ 375 for 12-20 minutes

you can use the baby carrots and I think they're fine this way, but Bruce swears it's better with regular carrots, (I really can't tell the difference) also the recipe I was passed on says you can use canned sliced carrots and the liquid they're in, but I just think those would be too "mushy"

Trust me you'll never think of cooked carrots the same way again if you try these, they're yummy!

BATTER FRIED ZUCCHINI STICKS

1 cup sifted flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons oil
1 pound zucchini, cut into 3 or 4-inch sticks
Additonal flour (optional)
Oil for deep frying

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE:
4 egg yolks
1 tablespoon water or dry white wine
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 teaspoon salt
dash of black pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Sift flour with baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Combine egg, milk and 2 tablespoons oil. Slowly add to dry ingredients, beating until smooth. Pat zucchini sticks very dry and if desired dredge lightly in flour. Dip pieces, one at a time, in batter. Fry in deep oil heated to 375 degrees until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with more salt if desired.

To make sauce, beat egg yolks until thick and light colored. Mix in water and transfer to top of double boiler set over barely simmering water. Heat and stir 2 to 3 minutes until warm., not hot, and eggs have begun to thicken. Add butter, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating continuously until well blended. Cook, beating 2 to 3 minutes until sauce thickens enough to coat back of spoon. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper and lemon juice. Serve immediately with zucchini sticks.

Makes 2 dozen.

NOTE: Vegetables that may be substituted for zucchini include artichoke hearts, carrot sticks, cauliflowerets, parsley sprigs, sliced parsnips and sweet potato sticks.

Fruity Chicken Salad


1 1/4 cup salad greens (I use a mix of Romaine and
Iceberg lettuce)
1/2 cup grapes (green or red, as long as they are
seedless and sweet)
6-8 grape tomatoes
approx. 12 mandarin orange slices
approx. 40 raisins
2/3 cup cubed chicken
lemon juice
honey roasted almond slices (small handful)
approx. 1/4 cup croutons
Kraft Creamy Poppy Seed Dressing

To make the chicken:

I use Tyson chicken tenderloins, defrost them, and slice them in strips (about 1/4 inch wide). When I use about 8 tenderloins, it usually yields about 2 cups cut up chicken.

Mix the chicken with lemon juice or some sort of liquid. I use about 1/4 cup if I'm cooking 8 or more tenderloins, and 2 or 3 tablespoons if less chicken.

Turn a burner on high, pour the chicken/lemon juice mixture into a large nonstick skillet, and stir occasionally, cooking it until the chicken is white and the juice is gone (if there's too much liquid and you're afraid of overcooking, just pour some of it out).

It usually takes about 3-6 minutes to cook, depending on how much chicken you are cooking.

(I cook the chicken until the juice is completely evaporated, and the chicken is a little browned in places.)

Empty the chicken onto the cutting board and cut it into smaller pieces (I hate handling raw chicken, so I cube it after it's cooked)

Assemble the salad -- greens, tomatoes, grapes, raisins, mandarin oranges, chicken (I put about a teaspoon of poppy seed dressing into the 2/3 cup of chicken and mix it up before putting it in with the salad), and toss. Add croutons and almond slices. Serve poppy seed dressing in a condiment cup on the side.

NOTE: Cooking the chicken with some oregano, basil, and garlic powder and a tad of hot sauce makes great chicken for fajitas.

Chicken Pot Pie

13x9x2 pan of it to be exact. Halve the recipe to make a more manageable one for smaller crowd.

1 pkg. frozen peas and carrots and corn (this is amt. called for in smaller pie, but I like less veggies in mine)
2/3 c. margarine or butter (No, this isn't diet food..its comfort food *S*)
2/3 c. flour
2/3 c. chopped onion
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
3 1/4 c. chicken broth (I usually use a good stock base and boiling water)
1 1/3 c. milk
5-6 c. cut up cooked chicken OR turkey
2 pkg. pie pastry (4 rounds, enough for 2 two-crust pies)

Rinse veggies in cold water to separate, drain.
Melt margarine in pot, and add onion. Cook carefully over low heat so that onions wilt and butter is nice and bubbly. Add flour, salt and pepper. Continue cooking till all is blended well and a nice golden color. (your roux, if a deeper flavor is desired, continue cooking till a light toasty brown). Whisking constantly, add in chicken broth and milk. Slowly bring up to a boil, stirring occasionally. When boil is reached whisk for one minute. Remove from heat.
In large bowl, mix chicken, veggies and sauce. Pour over pastry lined pan. Lay over top crust(s), seal and vent. Place in 425 degree oven for 35 minutes.

You can use leftover Turkey after Thanksgiving for this too.

Drizzled acorn squash.

You need one acorn squash for four people.

Put whole acorn squash on a cookie sheet in the oven at 350 until done. (about an hour)They are done if a toothpick goes in easily through the squash to the middle cavity.

Take them out and let them cool to the point you can handle them.

In a small pan, add equal parts honey and butter. Season to taste with a very little salt and cinnamon (lots if you like it). melt and stir. This is the "drizzle"

Cut the acorn squash in half, take out the seeds and discard. Cut again to make fourths. Arrange pretty on a tray. Drizzle.
