Caitlin Cooks (and makes cakes): January 2008
http://caitlincooks.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Caitlin Cooks (and makes cakes). Sunday, January 13, 2008. I like this tasty recipe as part of our meatless meals plans - it's filling and hearty without meat or beans. Taken from an original recipe in Cooks Country, I made a few changes that I think punch things up a little bit (though the changes probably knock it out of the 30 minute meal category into a 45 minute meal). 8-10 no boil lasagna noodles. 15 oz container ricotta. 1 block mozzarella, shredded 8 or 10 oz. (approx 2 cups? 2 onions, chopped.

Caitlin Cooks (and makes cakes). Wednesday, September 26, 2007. French Onion Salisbury Steaks. Normally I eschew Salisbury Steak, thinking of it as classless t.v. dinner fare. But this recipe caught my eye in one of those freebie magazines they send to your home - and since I am a huge fan of all things french onion and I had some ground beef handy, I thought I'd give it a whirl. It was actually quite good! Combine and form 4 patties:. 1 to 1.25 lbs ground sirloin. 1/8 cup fresh or dried parsley. Some of...

Caitlin Cooks (and makes cakes): Chocolate Truffles with Irish Cream
http://caitlincooks.blogspot.com/2008/12/chocolate-truffles-with-irish-cream.html
Caitlin Cooks (and makes cakes). Thursday, December 4, 2008. Chocolate Truffles with Irish Cream. Don't spend a fortune on store bought truffles - they are one of the easiest candies to make! They keep well in the freezer for up to 3 months and make a lovely homemade hostess gift. I use Irish Cream but it also works well with Rum, Kahlua, or any sweet liquor of your choice. 3 tbsp heavy cream. 4 oz bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped. 2 tbsp Irish cream. 4 oz bitter sweet chocolate, finely chopped.
