    Recipe

    Title: JELLO SNACKS FOR KIDS
    Categories: Desserts, Snacks, Kids
    Yield: 6 servings

    1 (12 oz) can frozen grape
    -juice concentrate, thawed
    3 Envelopes unflavored gelatin
    1 1/2 c (1 can) water

    From: Vicki Lansky’s CANDY book

    GRAPE FINGER JELLO

    Soften gelatin in grape juice. Boil the water, add the
    juice/ gelatin mixture and stir til gelatin dissolves.
    Remove from heat, pour into a lightly greased 9×13 pan
    and chill. Cut into squares when firm. Refrigerate in
    a covered container. This is good lunch box and
    traveling fare. It can go unrefrigerated up to 4 hours
    under normal (not desert!) conditions.

    Variation: substitute frozen cranberry juice cocktail
    concentrate for grape juice. Or a 12 oz can frozen
    apple, pear, apple, juice concentrate.

    SLIPPERY CIRCLES

    Let any of the recipes for finger jello stand and
    chill til thickened which doesn’t take very long (15
    to 25 minutes). Place a spoonful of the gelatin into
    each of 4 empty and clean 6 oz cans, such as usually
    used for frozen orange juice. Cut a peeled banana in
    half and center it in the can. Spoon in remaining
    gelatin. Chill till firm. To unmold, dip to rim in
    warm water and let it slide out. Or remove bottom of
    can if more appropriate. Cut into slices.

    SUNSHINE SQUARES

    (A Finger Jello that is good even for breakfast).

    4 envelopes unflavored gelatin 3/4 cup pineapple juice
    1 cup boiling water 1/4 cup sugar 1 cup orange juice

    Soften gelatin in pineapple juice. Add to boiling
    water and stir til dissolved. Add sweetener and orange
    juice. Chill in a 9×9 inch pan, then cut into squares.
    Refrigerate in a covered container. Variation: If you
    wish to use honey instead of sugar, decrease the
    orange juice by 1/8 of a cup.

    APPLE RING SNACKS

    Why pay for Weight Watchers Apple Snack when you can
    make your own?

    Peel an apple and remove the core. Slice in rings.
    Place on alightly greased cookie sheet, or on clear
    plastic wrap laid out on a cookie sheet. Dry in an
    electric oven at low or warm temperatures, In a gas
    oven the pilot light is sufficient. Drying takes 6-9
    hours, making this a good overnight project. The size
    of the apple slices and your oven temperature are the
    variables you will have to experiment with. The apples
    need not be dried to a crisp. Store in an airtight
    container. These should last several weeks at room
    temperature. Good for traveling!

    1/2 c — Water
    1/3 c Sugar, granulated
    2 T Ginger, fresh — peeled
    -grated
    1 1/4 c Milk, whole
    1 c Heavy cream

    3 lg Egg yolk
    1 T Ginger crystallized* — to 2 T
    -finely chopped

    * Magee said she’d probably use more.
    In pan, simmer 1/2 c. water, 1/3 c. sugar and fresh ginger for 3-4
    minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside to cool 5 minutes. (This is
    called a simple syrup.)
    In another pan, scald milk and cream (don’t boil). Remove from heat and
    stir in remaining sugar and the syrup. Set aside 15 minutes to allow
    flavors blend.
    Strain ginger solids from milk mixture. Whisk in egg yolks and
    crystallized ginger. Return to heat (use either a double boiler or heat
    diffuser.) Heat gently, stirring constantly, until it becomes a thin
    custard. Don’t allow it to simmer or boil. It should coat the back of a
    spoon.
    Cool mixture and freeze according to your machine’s instructions.

    Pasta with Caramelized Onions

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Basic Ingredients Family Meals
    Pasta Pizza Vegetarian

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    onions
    olive oil
    fresh parsley
    Parmesan cheese
    white wine
    cooked pasta

    Slice up lots of onions (1.5 cups per person). Put them in a saute pan
    with olive oil or sprayed with Pam and cover. Cook on low heat 45 minutes,
    until soft. Remove cover, turn heat to medium and cook liquid away. Add
    salt pepper (don’t be shy w/ the salt), and continue cooking and stirring
    onions until they turn golden brown (if they stick a little, that’s ok,
    just turn the heat down a tad). Splash in a little white wine, and stir it
    in, scraping up any browned bits. Turn heat to high, stirring and scraping
    until the wine is gone. Throw in a big handful of fresh parsley (or a
    smaller handful of dried), toss, and serve over spaghetti. Add parmesan to
    taste at the table.

    Note: I like this just as it is, but Bob’s likes it with a little more
    sauce. You may want to add some cream or a little tomato sauce or a bit of
    both.
