Today I went to a genealogy meeting here
in Lubbock where there was a
presentation on the
Ropesville
Resettlement Project (1936-1943).
The lady that did
the presentation mentioned a cookbook
the descendants of the project had made.
It includes recipes, memories and
history of the project. I
purchased a cookbook and it is a good
one. Although I do not know anyone
from the Ropesville Resettlement Project
it was fascinating to read about it and
how they lived. The cookbook (321 pages)
won the Third Place Winner in the Morris
Community Cookbook Award. If you are
interested in the cookbook as well you
can order it from
Patsy Smith
6425 Foster Road Ropesville, Texas
79358
The cost is $20.00 plus
$5.00 postage for persons in the USA.
The proceeds go to a scholarship fund.
I really enjoyed getting ookbook
because it has so many easy to prepare
recipes. Most recipes have 3-5
ingredients in them Nancy Rogers
These are recipes from my files that I
used while on Weight Watchers several
years ago. The recipes were for
the old system point on WW so I did not
include the points but did include the
information so they could be
calculated.. Nancy Rogers

Hi Nancy --this is a great
recipe for the Holidays (i.e.)
Easter, etc etc. I always make the
crust one day ahead , so it's not as
time-consuming . Also the filling .
Then cook it on the day that you are
serving it .
Mushroom pie
with Sour Cream Crust
Crust: 2
1/2 Cups flour; 2 tspns baking
powder; 2 tspn salt ; 1 Cup chilled
unsalted butter cut into 1/2 inch
cubes; 1 cup sour cream ( I always
use butter for this dish)
Filling: 3 tblspns butter ; 2 1/2
cups chopped onions; 8 cups coarsely
chopped baby bella mushrooms (or
mushrooms of your choice) about 1
1/2 -1 3/4 lbs; 2 tblspns chopped
fresh thyme; 1 8 oz pkg cream
cheese, cut into cubes, room temp.
1 large egg yolk beaten with 1
tblspn milk (for glaze on crust)
For crust: whisk first 5
ingredients in large bowl to blend.
Add butter and cut in with back of
fork until coarse meal forms . Add
sour cream, stir until dough comes
together. Shape dough into disk;
divide into 2 rounds, 1 about 2/3 of
dough and 1 about 1/3 of dough. Roll
out larger pieces on lightly floured
surface to approx 14 inch round.
Transfer to 10 inch pie plate. Trim
overhang to 1 inch . Roll out
smaller piece to 12 inch round .
Slide onto rimless sheet pan ( I use
my plastic cutting sheet ) and cut
into one inch wide strips ( for the
lattice top). Chill both crusts in
fridge for at least an hour or up to
one day (I chill for one day).
Filling: melt butter in heavy
large skillet over med.-high heat .
Add onions & saute until soft and
golden. Add chopped mushrooms and
thyme . Saute until mushrooms are
tender and release juices about 6
min. (THIS CAN ALL BE DONE ONE DAY
AHEAD- just re-warm before
continuing). Add cream cheese to
warm filling and stir until melted.
Season filling to taste with salt
and pepper .
Pre-heat oven
to 400 F. Spoon filling into crust .
Place dough strips on top of filling
in lattice pattern and form your
crust . Brush with egg glaze Bake
approx 45 min until crust is golden
and filling is heated through. Let
it rest for 30 min.
IT Sounds
like a lot of work but isn't bad if
you do it the day before and it
always gets raves from guests. I am
making this for our Easter dinner.

Hi
Nancy and everyone,
In the
2/26 newsletter, Robbie IN gave me a
recipe for Italian Coconut Cookies,
in response to my request for
Italian Cream Cake cupcakes or
Italian Cream Cake pops. Thank you
Robbie IN! I will save that recipe
to try. I ended up making my Italian
Cream Cake recipe into cupcakes.
They were very well received at my
office!
I have another
request. I participate in the
BzzAgent program and was sent
coupons to try Johnsonville Chicken
Sausage. I purchased
Cajun Chicken
Sausage and Apple Chicken Sausage,
but now I have no idea what to do
with them. Does anyone have any
recipes or ideas on what to do with
these? Thank you! Vickie TX
