    Crock Pot Tortellini Soup
    Prep time 10 minutes Cook time 6 on low, 8 on high

    1 bag frozen tortellini
    1 lb browned Italian sausage (heat level is your choice-i use mild for the kids)
    1 8oz package cream cheese softened
    2 cans diced Italian style tomatoes
    4 cups chicken broth
    1 bag fresh baby spinach

    Brown Italian sausage and drain. Add all ingredients EXCEPT spinach into the crock pot. Mix well trying to crush chunks of cream cheese with a fork. Some people may prefer to leave the tortellini out until close to the end (about 30 minutes or so) because it does get a bit soft.
    Add fresh spinach to the soup 5 minutes before serving stirring well. Serve with crusty bread.

    I want to include how to deep fry a turkey.

    It will include the rub that I use that came from my cousin as well as cooking times and prep and temps etc.

    Best turkey I have ever had and is really easy.

    Does this sound like something y'all would want before I go to the trouble to write up?

    Steve's Freakin' Kraut.

    can be served a number of ways, with smoked sausage, pork roast, etc. Leftovers if any, are perfect for polish sandwiches

    1 package fresh sauerkraut
    half a beer, usually a dark amber or lager. white wine can also be used. adds flavor but also tenders up Kraut.
    1 can chicken stock
    1tsp brown sugar
    1 tsp Cumin seed - couple sprinkles, more or less depending on how much of a bite you like.
    1 tsp parsley chopped
    1 onion-diced
    1 garlic clove-diced
    Tony Satchere's herb and seasoning sprinkled on. personal preference. this is not the Tony C's season salt.

    in a stove top dutch oven or covered roasting pan:

    sauté onions and garlic. While onions are sautéing rinse kraut in a strainer and water. drain thoroughly.

    After onions are sautéed, add kraut, beer or wine, and chicken stock to only cover kraut, you don't want a ton of excess liquid after it cooks down.
    add brown sugar, cumin seed and Tony Satchere's seasonings and parsley, mix well. bring to boil, cover and reduce to simmer. On a stove top, 30 min or so, remove cover and add smoked sausage cut into chunks, cover and cook 10-15 minutes. Remove lid and simmer 10-20 minutes until liquid evaporates.

    I haven't made this in a crock pot, but I would imagine based on past experiences, low heat for 8 hours, or high 4-5 hours.

    if adding pork roast or sausage, put roast on top before covering. If adding sausage, cook for 4 hours on low, add sausage and return to cooking.

    And since this is firewood hoarders, here is a suitable background, as I don't have any wood plates left. :grizz: The darker amber beers give it a rich color. The brown sugar gives it just a touch of sweetness and the cumin puts just a bite in it. Guaranteed to be liked by all that dare to try it.

    This should be quite an array of multi-state cuisine! Great idea.

    Oatmeal Pancakes

    2c oatmeal. Quick oats or old fashioned. I like old fashioned better.
    2c buttermilk
    1/2 c flour
    1t baking soda
    1t baking powder
    1t cinnamon
    1/4 c butter, melted
    1 egg
    2T sugar
    1T vanilla

    Soak oats and buttermilk for 15-30 minutes
    Combine dry ingredients
    Combine butter, egg, sugar, vanilla

    Add dry ingredients, then the rest. Let stand for 10-15 minutes, then cook as regular pancakes, turning when they start to dry around the edges.
    Amazing.

    I'm going to see if I can snag my aunts salmon pie recipe. Made similar to a chicken pot pie and it is the food I most look forward to every thanksgiving. Seriously amazing!

    Super Caesar Dressing:

    3 egg yolks
    Approximately 1 cup of garlic flavored olive oil (drop 6 cloves into a liter container of mild olive oil and let set for a couple weeks- lasts for months!)
    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (I prefer Grey Poupon)
    Anchovies 3 or 4 (or use anchovy paste- 3 inches)
    1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
    1/8 cup balsamic vinegar
    Red wine vinegar- amount to be determined later
    1/2 lemon
    1 tsp Worcester sauce
    8 roasted garlic cloves that have been mashed (press them through a screen if you have one)
    1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
    Ground pepper and salt

    Approximately makes 12 larger portions of salad.

    Some of these quantities need to be determined based on the current state of the dressing.
    First step is the most important; emulsify the yolks. This is done by placing the yolks in a large, preferably wooden bowl and whisking them until they become a light/pale yellow. Usually takes about 2 or 3 minutes of constant hand whisking. Now add the garlic flavored olive oil as you continue to whisk, but add at a very slow rate. The process will be complete and properly done if the mix becomes thick enough to stay inside the whisk. You may use more or less oil than indicated. It should be thicker than mayonnaise and thinner than whipped cream. While continuing to whisk, add the Dijon mustard, anchovy, balsamic and Worcester sauce. Whisk in the grated parmesan. The mix will be very thick at this point. Whisk in red wine vinegar in small amounts, making sure to mix it thoroughly before you add more. This will thin out the dressing. Add only enough to make the sauce as thin as pancake batter would be. Add the mashed "roasted in the woodstove" garlic and grated parmesan and whisk in again. Squeeze the lemon into the mix and whisk some more. This will thin the mix again and make it lighten up color-wise. The dressing is done except for salt and pepper. I like a fair amount of pepper, but add what you desire. The salt will be needed to help offset the lemon juice and bring out the flavors. I usually use about 2 teaspoons. Add croutons if you like, but use flavors like sourdough, or asiago, but avoid Caesar flavored!

    It is a lot of work, but if you appreciate real Caesar, this should keep you happy. Throw some chicken or even better yet some Tuna on the salad and enjoy!
