SLICED EGG SANDWICH

3 Boiled Eggs
Lettuce
Tomato
Roasted Red Pepper
Mayo
2 Slice Whole-Grain Bread
Salt and Pepper

Boil eggs, let cool. Peel. Take and lay a piece of bread on a plate. Slice the eggs and put on the bread. Add a little salt and pepper if you like. Then add the tomato and lettuce. Put some mayo on the other slice of bread and enjoy. Can toast the bread also. Serve with some yogurt or a cheese stick.

BREAKFAST BURRITO'S

3 Flour Tortilla
1 Can Drained Black Beans
4 Eggs, Screambled
Sour Cream, to taste
1 Jar Salsa

Scramble the eggs. Lay tortilla on a plate. Put some eggs on it and then some of the black beans and salsa. Add some sour cream on top and roll up. Very good. I leave out the black beans as I don't care much for them. Can add some stir fried green and red peppers to this if you like. Serve with orange wedges.

STEFEN'S OREO BALL CANDY

1Lb. Oreo Cookies, 3 sleeves
1 (8)oz. Cream Cheese, room temp.
1 Lb. Melting Milk Chocolate, if using milk choc.
1  Lb. Melting White Chocolate, if using white choc.

Using a food processor, grind cookies to a fine powder. If you don't have one put in a ziplock bag and shut and use your rolling pin or hammer to crush them. Using mixer, blend cookie powder and cream cheese until throughly mixed (should be no traces of cream cheese). Roll into small balls and place on wax-lined cookie sheet. Ref. for 45 minutes so you can handle them when dipping in chocolate. In a double-boiler, melt the white chocolate. If just using the white choc. (which I like best )then start by melting 1/2 lb. and may have to melt the other half of it. Dip balls and coat thoroughly. With a slotted tool, lift balls out of chocolate and let excess chocolate drip off. Place on wax-paper lined cookie sheet. If you want to use both milk choc. and the white choc. them melt them in two seprate kettles. When finished coating with a fork drizzle the milk choc. over the white choc. balls or if making milk choc. then drizzle some white choc. over milk choc, covered balls. Let cool. If not eating all the first day then make sure you store them in a air tight container in the ref. It has cream cheese in them and might mold.

MINI MEATBALL SANDWICHES

They were demo these at Sam's Club also the other day and they are so good and very easy and fast to make.

1 Jar (32)oz. Classico Tomato and Basil Sauce
2 Lbs. Casa Di Bertacchi Meatballs or around 52 mini meatballs
3 French Baguettes
15 Mozzarelia Cheese slices Or can use shredded mozzarelia cheese

In a crockpot or a large pot on the stove on medium heat. combine the tomato and basil sauce with the meatballs. Bring to a simmer then reduce heat and cook for 18-20 minutes (this is in the crockpot)stirring occasionally until meatballs are heated through(will not take this long if fixing them on the stove). Cut baguettes into 4 inch segments and then again lenghthwise. In other words just split them but don't cut them all the way into. Place 3 meatballs in each sandwich. Add cheese and some of the sauce. Or you can use the football shaped dinner rolls found at most stores that are already made and split them and put 3 meatballs on the bottom part and then some cheese on top of the meatballs and then put the other piece of bread on and I like to sort of smash them down. They are so good.

SWEET MEATBALLS

We were at Sam's Club the other day and they were demo these and they are so good and so simple to make.

11/2 Cup Smucker's Strawberry Jam
1 Cup Barbecue Sauce. I think they used Jack Daniel's
2 Lbs. Case Di Bertacchi Meat Balls

In a crockpot combine the srawberry jam and barbecue sauce with the fully cooked meat balls. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook 18-20 minutes, stirring occasionally until meatballs are heated through. I make mine with grape jelly but I like the taste of this better.

Also have another recipe I am putting on of Mini Meatball Sandwiches and we loved these.

CUCUMBER SANDWICHES

These may not sound very good but are. I like to make them witht the long english cucumbers that you can find now that it is winter. But of course they are best with home grown cukes in the summer.

1 Loaf White or Wheat Bread
3 oz. Cream Cheese
2 Teaspoons Mayonnaise not Miracle Whip
1 Teaspoon Minced Fresh Garlic
2 Teaspoons Dry Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper

In a food processor or medium bowl add the cream cheese, mayo and garlic, italian seasoning, salt and pepper and mix or blend  until they are all blended good. Spread on 4 pieces of bread. Take and wash cucumbers good and dry. You can either peel or not peel them. Slice thin and put over top the cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Put the other piece of bread on top and then you can cut the crust off the bread and then cut into 4 pieces. Very good.

ORANGE CAKE

Did you buy a lot of oranges for Christmas and have got tired of eating them. Then try this orange cake recipe and use up some of them for the juice it calls for and for the zest. Never have used zest before. Just take a orange and wash good and then take a grader with the small holes and run your orange up and down it. It may take two oranges or more to get the zest this recipe calls for. Just don't go down to the white part of the orange as it will make it bitter. Do it lightly.

1 (18 oz) Box Yellow Cake Mix
1 (3 oz) Box Instant Lemon Pudding Mix
3/4 Cup Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice 
1/2Cup Canola Oil
4 Eggs
1 Teaspoon Orange Zest
1 Teaspoon Lemon Zest

Spray and flour a 10 inch bundt pan. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.In a medium bowl combine cake mix, pudding mix, orange juice, oil, eggs and citrus zests. Beat on low until blended. Scrape bowl,and beat on medium speed for 4 minutes. Pour into prepared bundt pan. Bake 50-60 minutes (until set.) Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes. Turn out onto cake plate and cool completely.

Glaze:

1/3 Cup Orange Juice
2/3 Cup Sugar
1/4 Cup Butter or Marg.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook the orange juice, sugar and butter or marg. for two minutes. Drizzle over cooled cake. Serve cake with fresh whipped cream and canned peaches.
