A Recipe To Try: Onion Shortcake

The second "recipe exchange" was held Monday, March 13, in the library. I wasn't able to attend, but Doris Thurman filled me in on what I missed. The recipes exchanged sounded really delicious, and different. Since I didn't share this time I will share one that I received last time. It sounded so different. I just had to try it and it was good!

Onion Shortcake

1/2 cup butter

2 large onions, sliced thin

8 oz. grated cheddar cheese

8 oz. sour cream

1/4 cups minced fresh dill (optional)

1/4 tsp. salt

1 egg

1 pkg. cornbread mix

1 can cream style corn

1/2 cup milk

4 drops Tabasco sauce (optional)

Preheat oven to 425°. Butter 2 1/2 quart baking dish. In large skillet melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened (about 5-6 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 of the cheese, sour cream, dill and salt until blended. Set aside.

In a large bowl lightly beat egg, stir in muffin mix, corn, milk and Tabasco sauce. Spread in baking dish. Top with cheese mixture. Sprinkle the remaining cheese and bake for 35-40 minutes or until top is golden and mixture is bubbly.

I used my own recipe for cornbread instead of the packaged mix, thus gluten- free.

(The next exchange meeting is planned for Monday, April 10, at 1 p.m.)

The news reported the N.E. snow storm was as far south as Washington D.C. so I checked on Elsie Hanger. Sure enough, they were getting the snow. We had a good visit, but she had fallen and hit her head on the refrigerator. She was OK with the "color" about gone from her face.

Happy birthday to Mary Newberry, Mary Lauren Bradley, Carol Meyer, Elmer Williams, Richard Watson, Sam King, Seth Latta, Paul Brakenbill, Lesley Pinkerton, Wesley Pinkerton, Jack Batson and David Hannah.

Happy anniversary to Donald and Denise Mounce.

Happy years, all!

Remember recycling next Monday, March 27.
