15 Bean Soup

Please share so you can make someone else smile! Thank you.

15 Bean Soup

INGREDIENTS
1 (1 lb) bag regular 15 bean soup mix or 1 (1 lb) bagcajun 15 bean soup mix
1 large onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 (15 -30 ounce) can whole tomatoes, crushed
3 stalks celery leaves, included chopped
2 -3 ham hocks or 1 ham bone, with meat still on it
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried rosemary (crush with fingertips before adding this releases the flavor)
1 teaspoon black pepper
salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 chicken bouillon cubes
DIRECTIONS
Wash the beans; put in large pot and cover with water. Bring to boil; stir and remove from heat. Cover and let sit 1 hour. After that hour, drain beans and set aside.
Add oil to pot. Sauté your ham hocks, onion, and celery until tender.
Next add garlic and sauté 2 minutes more.
Add your beans and cover with water (about 2 inches over top of beans).
Add tomatoes with the juice, parsley, rosemary, black pepper, bouillon cubes, and about 1 teaspoon of salt to start with.
Mix well. Bring to boil; stir, reduce heat cover and simmer for 2 to 21/2 hours or until all the sizes of the beans are tender.
Keep watching it and stirring it every once in a while. You may need to add more water; you want it to keep a consistency a little thicker than a soup.
Taste it after it cooks--you may need more salt or pepper.
During the last 15 minutes of cooking, add the flavor package that comes with the beans.
Serve by itself or over rice.

CINNAMON PANCAKE STACK

Please share so you can make someone else smile! Thank you.

CINNAMON PANCAKE STACK

A YUMMY cinnamon filling and a cream cheese glaze..... AMAZING!!!!

Ingredients:

for the Pancakes:
4 cups all-purpose flour
8 tsps baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 cups milk
2 cups water
4 tbsps canola oil
4 large eggs, lightly beaten

for the Cinnamon Filling
1 cup butter, melted (200gm)
1 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 tbsp ground cinnamon

for the Cream Cheese Glaze
1/2 cup butter (100gm)
4 oz. cream cheese
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tsp. vanilla

Directions:

To make the Cinnamon Filling:
Mix the three ingredients together. Place in a disposable piping bag and snip the end off or put in a Ziploc bag and snip the corner off.

To make the Pancakes:
Mix the dry ingredients in one bowl and the wet ingredients in another bowl. Stir them together until everything is moistened leaving a few lumps.

Heat your griddle/pan to exactly what temperature you want but not to high or you could burn the cinnamon. You don't want these too cook too quickly.

Pour desired amount of mixture onto girdle or pan. cook for a few seconds to seal the base before adding the cinnamon mixture. Using the piping bag and starting at the center of the pancake, create a cinnamon swirl. Wait until the pancake has lots of bubble before you try to turn it. You will find that when you turn it the cinnamon swirl will melt. The cinnamon will melt out and create the craters which the cream cheese glaze will fill.

To make the Cream Cheese Glaze:
In a microwave safe bowl melt the butter and cream cheese and then stir together. Whisk in the powdered sugar and vanilla. Add a little milk if needed to make
it a glaze consistency.

Place pancake on plate, then cover with cream cheese glaze. keep doing this until you have run out of pancakes. pour cream cheese glaze over the top when finished.

ZUCCHINI BAKE

Please share so you can make someone else smile! Thank you.

ZUCCHINI BAKE

Low carb!!!!!

1 large Zucchini
2 medium tomatoes
1 large onion (any type)
2 green/red peppers
1# bacon
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

In a 11X14 pan, start layering your vegetables.
First layer zucchini slices. You may want to put some season salt on each side of the zucchini slices as it is bland.
Second layer tomato slices.
Third layer onion slices.
Fourth layer sliced green or red peppers.
Fifth layer cubed bacon (You can use turkey bacon). I cut it up and precook it in the microwave for a bit. Not completely done though because you want some of the juiced to cook into veggies.
Sixth layer shredded cheddar cheese to cover the veggies.
Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until cheese starts to brown.
