Lemon Blueberry Scones

Although this is not a muffin recipe, I thought I would place it there as it is a similar type of item. This makes a very soft scone that is more biscuitlike in texture. The lemon glaze compliments the blueberries perfectly. I also found  low fat yogurt works just fine.

Streusel Topped Blueberry Muffins

You’ll notice I have a number of blueberry entries as they are normally very plentiful and well priced during summers in Michigan. This recipe is another one Erin discovered. I “tested” them for her numerous times before baking them myself. I think she caught on to my motives. This is easily converted to a no-milk recipe.

Tuna Noodle Casserole

Tuna Noodle Casserole is a favorite at our house especially during lent, but its really good enough for any time of year.  What you will see is the basic recipe, but I will also give you some of the changes that are made.  Some of the changes came about because we like certain ingredients better and others because we just didn’t have that ingredient available. Remember this can be made with other meats like ham, but for some reason we always default to tuna.

Aunt Marg’s Sugar Cookies

Everyone in our family knows if you like a soft sugar cookie these are the best surgar cookies you will ever eat, hands down.  The key is the final milk to flour ratio.  Bake one cookie, if it is too flat add flour. Not flat enough more milk.

I feel sorry for anyone that did not get the chance to stand by while Aunt Marg made these cookies.  While we all struggle to get the ingredients measured out just right Aunt Marg would just grab the ingredients and throw them together.  The first time I tried making the cookies from an actual recipe card they just didn’t taste right (they were terrible). The problem was when the ingredients were put down on the card the salt was missed.
