SWEET POTATO SOUFFLE

Candied sweet potatoes are always a crowd pleaser. Here's an easy
recipe for those who like their sweet potatoes emphatically
sweet--it's almost like a dessert. Be sure to serve this dish with a
salty or sour main course that has no hint of sweetness, to avoid
overkill. Serves 4-6. Per serving: 690 cal, 30 g fat, 114 mg
cholesterol, 102.9 g carbohydrates, 4.2 g fiber, 6.5 g protein, 418 mg
sodium.

1 18-oz can sweet potatoes, drained and mashed
1 c sugar
2 eggs
1/2 c milk
1/2 tsp salt
3 tbsp butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla

Topping:
1 c brown sugar
1/2 c flour
1 c chopped pecans
1/3 c butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix souffle ingredients well. Pour into
buttered 2-quart souffle pan. Mix topping ingredients; crumble over

KITCHEN WISDOM ?

A messy kitchen is a happy kitchen, and this kitchen is delirious!

No husband has ever been shot while doing dishes.

A husband is someone who takes out the trash
and gives the impression he just cleaned the whole house.

If we are what we eat, then I'm easy, fast, and cheap.

Thou shalt not weigh more than thy refrigerator.

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves
for they shall never cease to be amused.

Help keep the kitchen clean - eat out!

Housework done properly, can kill you.

Countless numbers of people have eaten in this kitchen
and gone on to lead normal lives.

My next house will have no kitchen---just vending machines.

1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Saute sausage until cooked then remove from pan. Saute onions and celery in small amount of sausage drippings and then drain. Blend sausage, onions and celery together, add cornbread, white bread, eggs, sage and salt and pepper. Fold in butter. Stuffing can be cooked inside turkey or in a separate covered casserole. If you do stuff the turkey with stuffing, make sure that you follow the cooking directions for a stuffed turkey (it must be cooked longer than an unstuffed turkey) and remove all of the stuffing from the turkey as soon as the turkey is cooked.

Combine all ingredients except dressing and butter in baking dish. Spread dressing on top. Pour the 4 Tbsp. of melted butter over the dressing. Bake 350 degrees for 35 minutes for frozen broccoli or 60 minutes for fresh broccoli. Fresh broccoli is always better. You can also peel the skin off of the stalks and cut the stalks into thin slices for an almost "water chestnut" type addition to the casserole.

For those of you that may not know, canned pumpkin is pumpkin puree, usually with some extra flavorings added. Combine pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt in a bowl. Add eggs and beat eggs into pumpkin mixture with a fork. Add evaporated milk and milk and mix well. Place in pie crust (cover the edge of the crust with aluminum foil to prevent burning) and bake for 25 minutes in 375 degree oven. Remove foil from crust and bake for another 30 minutes or until a knife comes out clean when inserted into the pie.

Jolie! I found a cookbook for $2.50 on eBay. Called "Cooking in the Nude...Quickies" Pretty funny. Recipes like Suggestive Salad, Skinny Dipping Shrimp, Mission ImPastable, A Saucy Affair, Caesar & Please Her! I was soooooooooo going to send it to Fugi. But I just gotta stick it in Sarah's stocking!

I found this recipe for pumpkin pecan bread with caramelized glaze. I made it earlier tonight, made 2 nice-sized loaves. I haven't glazed it yet, I'm not going to serve it til the fish fry Sunday. If it's any good, I'll post the recipe.
