Good Eats

Something about cool weather makes me want to be in the kitchen. I always make something I like a few times and forget about it, and think why haven't I made that in awhile? And I like to pass on good recipes, so I thought I would post a few here. We have had a cooking bonanza here this weekend, and here are some of the things we made:

Mix 1/4 cup bbq sauce and all other ingredients in a large Ziploc bag for easy clean up, or a bowl. Form into loaf and place in 9x13 baking dish. Top with remaining bbq sauce and bake one hour.

Easy Cinnamon Buns
I make the dough from Robin Hood's Bread and Roll mix, (use half the bag)so easy, you get it at Zehrs
Filling:
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cloves
1 pkg vanilla pudding mix
Mix all of this in a bowl with 1/4 cup melted butter. Roll out your bread dough after it has risen for 45 minutes. Roll into rectangle, spread filling right to the edges, roll up and slice, place in greased baking dish and bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes. Top with your favourite cream cheese icing/

Autumn Soup

1 cup chicken broth
1 cup apple juice
1 diced onion
1 cooked butternut squash
1/8 tsp ginger
1/8 tsp cloves
3 diced apples

Saute onions in butter, throw everything else in the pot, add onions, cook on low 3 hours and puree.

I still have gingersnaps, cabbage rolls and apple crisp to make, I'll post those recipes soon....I'm hungry.
