Spinach-Artichoke Dip
(Makes 1 Quart) 1 16-oz.
Carefully hollow out the sourdough round to within 1" of sides and bottom. Cube bread into 1" chunks. Mix cream cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, cayenne, pepper and garlic until smooth. Fold in artichoke hearts and spinach. Gently warm mixture in microwave or on top of stove. Mix cheddar and Parmesan cheese into mixture and heat until melted. Pour warm dip into hollowed bread loaf. Arrange bread cubes and chips around loaf when ready to serve.

Stuffed French Toast
Cut a slit in each slice of bread to form a pocket. Press ends to open and fill with a spoonful of filling. Repeat until all the bread and filling is used up. Dip each side of each bread pocket into the egg mixture. Cook on a griddle using medium heat until both sides are golden brown. Top each slice of French toast with warmed syrup.

Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Topping:
Combine all topping ingredients and mix well.
Preheat over to 350°F. Cream butter and add sugar gradually. Beat until very light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Fold in sour cream and vanilla. Sift flour, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture a little at a time and beat well.
Pour about 1/3 of the batter into a well-greased and floured bundt pan. Sprinkle 1/2 of the topping mixture over batter. Spoon another 1/3 of the batter and sprinkle remaining topping. Finish with remaining 1/3 of batter. Bake 1 hour. Turn out of pan to cool.

Fruit Smoothie
(4 servings)
Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into serving glasses and enjoy.

Corn Chowder
Sauté onion, celery, green pepper and bacon in large saucepan. Add chicken stock, salt, pepper, parsley and thyme. Peel and dice potatoes. Add to saucepan. Add corn and simmer for 30 minutes.
In separate pan melt butter and stir in flour. Add the half & half and whip until smooth. Add to the soup and cook 10 minutes to blend.

Hearty Mushroom Soup
Sauté onion in margarine until translucent. Add mushrooms and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Blend in flour until mushrooms and onion are coated. Slowly add chicken broth, stirring constantly. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Add cream, pepper and nutmeg. Continue heating until soup is hot but do not boil. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Sour Cream Enchiladas
Lightly fry tortillas in oil. Drain on paper towel. Mix together sour cream and enchilada sauce in a large flat bowl. Dip both sides of a tortilla in sauce and fill with 1/4 c chicken, 1/8 c cheese, onion and cilantro. Roll up and place in greased 8 1/2 x 11" nonstick dish. Repeat until all tortillas have been filled. Cover with remained sauce and cheese and top with olives. Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes or until bubbly. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Heat oven to 350°F. Wrap garlic heads in foil and roast in oven until they are soft, about 50 minutes. While garlic is roasting, wash and quarter potatoes. Cover with cold water, add salt and bring to a boil. Simmer until tender. Drain and add butter in pieces. Heat buttermilk over low heat. Mash potatoes, adding buttermilk slowly until the desired consistency is reached. Squeeze garlic so cloves slide out. Add to potatoes and mash. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Cheesy Garlic Bread
This bread is even good cold, the next day, so you may want to make 2 loaves.
Preheat broiler. Combine butter, cheeses, and garlic. Top each slice of bread with a generous amount of spread. Broil until lightly browned and bubbly.

Lazy Day Cake
This recipe goes back to the 50's, but it's still good today. You may want to double the recipe because it'll be gone before you know it!
Preheat oven to 350°F. Beat eggs until thick. Add sugar, vanilla, baking powder and flour. Heat milk and butter to boiling and add to mixture. Pour into square cake pan and bake for 30 minutes.
Topping:
Combine all ingredients and boil for 5 minutes. Pour over baked cake and place in broiler until brown. Serve cooled with whipped cream.

Dessert Pizza
Kids of all ages like this unusual but delicious dessert. Pears, apples, and peaches work especially well.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Blend cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Spread mixture over crust. Layer fruit slices decoratively over cream cheese mixture. Combine brown sugar, nuts and butter. Sprinkle over fruit. Bake for 30 minutes or until bubbly and hot.

Lemon Jelly Roll
The cake bakes right on top of the filling and then gets rolled up inside. What could be easier!
Filling:
Cake:
Heat oven to 375°F. Let eggs come to room temperature. Lightly grease a 15 1/2"x10 1/2" jellyroll pan. Line bottom and sides with parchment paper; grease paper. Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
Beat in eggs, lemon juice and vanilla just until blended. Spread evenly in lined pan. Beat eggs, sugar, lemon peel and vanilla in a large bowl on high speed 12 minutes, until very thick, pale, and tripled in volume. Sprinkle with flour and fold until just blended. Fold in butter. Spread evenly over filling in pan. Bake 19 - 21 minutes or until cake springs back when touched in center. While cake bakes, spread a clean kitchen towel (not paper or terrycloth) on countertop. Sift confectioners' sugar over towel, covering an area the size of the cake.
Invert hot cake on towel. Remove pan and carefully peel off paper. Starting at narrow end, neatly roll up cake, using the towel as an aid. Cool completely on a wire rack. Wrap and refrigerate up to a week. When ready to serve, slice in 1" slices and top with whipped cream.
