Gramma Lund's Limpa Bread by Amos Miller

My paternal grandfather emigrated to the US in 1912 bringing with him his mother's family recipe for the incredibly delicious - almost cake-like - limpa of the southern Swedish countryside. I looked at every recipe for Swedish Limpa Bread on the C-E-S site. None of them are family recipes, although there is a rye bread recipe, it's…

Four Cheese & Sausage Stuffed Manicotti by Salad Foodie

Cheese-stuffed manicotti personifies comfort food anytime, but take it up a notch with a cheese four-some and Italian sausage and it’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. This was inspired by a few pasta manufacturer web site recipes, but I added my own spin here and there and was pleasantly surprised how well they worked. Oh Mama-Mia, this…

Zucchini and Tomato Pizza for Two....(or more!) by Salad Foodie

I’d run out of inspiration for how to use up summer’s end of zucchini, tomatoes and basil, until I came across a recipe in Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone (Deborah Madison). After finishing off a single piece of this divine pizza, I am moving this recipe to my "Favorite Meals Before I Die" list, it’s that good! This makes a 10" pizza…

My mother has been making these since I can remember. They are absolutely amazing!! Almost like a small jam-filled pie with a beautiful almond topping. I can't get enough of them!

Baked Pasta With Sausage, Tomatoes and Cheese by Mary Ann Walter

M husband loves this dish. I use hot Italian sausage, but you can also use the sweet variety. Becasue there are only 2 of us, I make to smaller casseroles instead on the one larger, and freeze the second one. This freezes wonderfully.
