Can Opener Minestrone

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 11-03 Mar 2008

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 can diced tomatoes with jalapenos
1 can beans
2 cans chicken broth
1 can mixed vegetables
1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning
1/4 cup minced onion
1/2 cup Salsa -- optional
1 cup pasta
1/2 pound veal -- diced, cooked

Combine all ingredients, bring to boil and simmer for about 20 minutes
until meat is hot and pasta is done.

As described, with black bread or corn bread and a green salad, it is a
complete meal.

I've always used "vegetarian" beans, sauce and all

If you want it more "soupy" for a soup course, add another can or two of
chicken broth.
If you aren't going to eat it all immediately, it freezes fine but cook the
needed pasta separately and add as it is served. Pasta in soup doesn't re-
heat worth beans.

I've used all kinds of small pasta. "Rainbow" rotini is quite colorful.
I've never actually used veal. Instead have used chicken breast, pork and
catfish. When using raw catfish, put it in after about 10 minutes so it
doesn't get cooked to death.

Notes -
From ATCO Blue Flame Kitchen's "100 Favorites" cookbook

Too large for just me. So I roughly halved it and baked it in an 8 x 8-inch
pan. Made 4 generous servings.

I left the peppers and onion amounts as is.
Used 1 cup of cheese instead of 1 1/4.
Used 4 eggs and only 1/3 teaspoon salt.
Halved everything else.

Tip - leftover waffles work fine in place of bread.
When I'm using up leftovers, my rule is 2 cups bread, 2 eggs and 1 cup
milk; bake in a 4 X 8-inch loaf pan.

Chocolate Cake with Oil

Recipe By : Kook en Geniet by S. J. A. De Villiers
Serving Size : 16 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 11-03 Mar 2008

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
**Cake**
3 tablespoons commercial drinking chocolate -- (?)
1/2 cup boiling water
1 cup flour
3/4 cup castor sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs -- separated
1 teaspoon vanilla flavouring
1/2 teaspoon red food colouring
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
**Chocolate Filling**
1/4 pound butter
1 pound castor sugar
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 tablespoon boiling water
Vanilla flavouring

Dissolve the chocolate in the boiling water and set it aside to cool.

Sift the flour, castor sugar (very fine granulated sugar), baking powder
and salt together.

Make a well in the middle of the flour mixture and put the oil, beaten egg
yolks, vanilla, colouring and chocolate into it. Mix it very well.

Beat the egg whites and the cream of tartar until stiff; gently fold into
the batter.

Pour the batter into two greased 8- or 9-inch diameter layer cake pans and
bake 20 to 30 minutes in a moderate oven (350F/180C).

Let it cool then spread chocolate filling between the layers and on the top
of the cake.

Chocolate Filling (a variation on butter filling)

Work the sugar into the butter.
Mix the cocoa powder with the boiling water and add it. Mix well and add
the vanilla flavouring (it doesn't say how much so I assume to taste).
If preferred the stiffly beaten whites of 2 eggs, sweetened with castor
sugar, can be added to give a lighter texture.

Chocolate Coca Cola Cake

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 16 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 11-03 Mar 2008

2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

Pour into prepared 9-inch baking pans. Bake in 350F. oven for 35 minutes or

teaspoon salt; place the ingredients in a bowl over simmering water and
beat until it holds its shape and can easily be spread on a cake. This will

Corn 'n' Pineapple Pancakes

Recipe By : Hallie
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 11-03 Mar 2008

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cups buttermilk pancake mix
1 can creamed corn
1 cup pineapple chunks -- drained
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 cup Fresca -- see * note
1/2 cup water

* note: I also use a store-brand diet grapefruit soft drink when I don't
have Fresca on hand.

If the pineapple chunks are large chop them into smaller pieces. I've
noticed that the chunks in some brands are quite large. I suppose you could
use crushed pineapple but you would have to experiment with how much liquid
stays with the fruit and adjust the other liquids accordingly.

Put the pancake mix, corn, pineapple and cumin into a bowl; mix to combine.
Add the Fresca and stir gently. If the batter seems too thick add some
water until you have a batter that is still a little thickish but don't
thin it too much.

This batter is quite delicate so don't make really big pancakes; about 1/3
to 1/2 cup of batter per pancake works quite well.

Scoop the batter onto a pre-heated non-stick or well-seasoned frying pan or
griddle; cook until the top starts to lose its really shiny liquid
appearance then turn over and cook the other side for about 1 minute or
until it looks done.

Serve on warm plates with butter, sour cream, whipped cream or a fruity
sauce on the side if you wish although these are also good with no
adornment.
