I have always made cakes from mixes, but I would like to try making one from scratch. I am worried I will mess it up and want some tried and true recipes for GOOD scratch cakes. Any help is appreciated.

Monica

I have lots of tomatoes canned, and now another season of ripe tomatoes is here. Does anyone have a tired and tested tomato sauce recipe? I do NOT mean one for spaghetti, but just one like u buy in the store in those little cans. Simple tomato sauce. I have tired the ones in the Kerr book and just don't tasted the way I want them too. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Jnona

Help! Someone left a huge sack of tomatoes on my porch, rang the doorbell, and ran! What can I do with all of these! I was thinking of making my own salsa, but I haven't canned anything before. I hope some of your readers have ideas for me.

Hello all.

John was looking for a noodle casserole recipe. I am of Russian descent and this might be what he is thinking of. It's called Lapshevnik Noodle Cake.

2 c. homemade noodles, cooked
6 eggs
1/2 c. sweet cream ( whipping cream)
1 tsp salt
3/4 c. raisins
1 tbsp melted butter
1 tsp sugar
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder.

Boil noodles for 5 minutes. Add raisins, boil one minute more. Drain well. Pour cold water on it so it stops cooking. Separate eggs. Into beaten egg yolks, add sugar, melted butter and cream. Then add noodles and mix well. Next fold in beaten egg whites. Now add baking powder. Mix well, and pour into well greased pan and bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes. Serve hot with melted butter. Serves six.

For Shannon:

While I prefer to start with never-frozen hamburger, I have done this with frozen hamburger. If cooking 2-3 pounds, use Dutch-oven sized pan. Cook, covered, over medium-high heat, breaking meat up into casserole/sloppy joe sized bits with spatula (the type you use to flip pancakes), 5-6 times during cooking. Drain off grease and and freeze in 2-cup portions (which I think equals about 1 lb) in freezer bags, plastic ware or FoodSaver bags. I think it’s a bit drier than freshly fried hamburger, but it is so convenient. I love having this on hand. I have made all of these recipes using precooked frozen hamburger, and they are yummy home cookin’.

Hamburger Stroganoff

1 lbs hamburger
1 clove minced garlic or garlic salt
8-oz can sliced mushrooms, undrained
1 can cream of mushroom soup
3 T flour
½ c chopped onion
1 t salt
¼ t pepper
1 c sour cream
½ t Worcestershire sauce (or to taste)

Cook hamburger with onion and garlic and drain. Add all other ingredients except sour cream. Heat through, stirring occasionally. Stir in sour cream. Serve over egg noodles or rice.

Sloppy Joes

1 lb hamburger
1 medium onion, chopped
½ t season salt
Pepper to taste
½ c ketchup
1 T mustard
2 T vinegar
¼ c brown sugar

Cook hamburger with onion, season salt and pepper--drain. Stir in remaining ingredients and simmer 15-20 minutes. Yield 4-6 sandwiches.

Taco Mac

1 lb. ground beef, browned and drained
1 12.5 oz. pkg. taco seasoning
1 14.5 oz. can peeled stewed tomatoes (or Rotel Tomatoes & Chiles)
1 c. uncooked elbow macaroni
1-1/4 c. water
Cheddar cheese, shredded

Brown and drain hamburger. Stir in remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese and serve.

Mom's Beans

1 lg can Bush's baked beans, undrained (mom uses Van de Camp's)
1 can kidney beans, drained
1 can butter beans, drained
½ c ketchup
¾ c + some brown sugar
1 t dry mustard
1 T vinegar
½ lb bacon, fried and chopped (best w/real bacon, but okay to use 1 can real bacon pieces)
1 lb hamburger, cooked and drained
1 small onion, chopped

Combine all in Dutch oven. Cover and bake at 350 for 1 hour. Can also be cooked in crockpot. Whether on high or low, just give it enough time to simmer so flavors mingle.

Hamburger Soup

1 lb hamburger, cooked and drained
6 small-medium potatoes, peeled and diced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can corn, drained
1 pkg beef stew mix
3 t beef base
6 c water

Put stew mix, beef base, water, potato and onion in stew pot. Bring to boil, reduce heat, add hamburger and corn and simmer until potatoes are tender.

Spanish Rice

1 lb cooked, seasoned hamburger, drained
2 c instant rice
1 can tomato juice
1 small onion, chopped or onion powder
Garlic powder, celery salt, salt and pepper to taste

Cook hamburger and drain. In small amount of butter or oil, sauté rice with onion. Add meat, seasonings and enough tomato juice to cover mixture. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer and stir occasionally to keep rice from sticking to bottom of pan. Add tomato juice as it is absorbed by rice, until rice is cooked. Remove from heat and let leave covered for 10 minutes. Adjust seasonings to taste. Serve with soft, buttered bread.
