Re: [CnD] Fw: Creamy Lime Jello Salad

2010-07-02 Thread Vicki Ratcliffe
 Claudia, I have made this salad with lime jello and used cottage
cheese.  People might see that it is there but the cottage cheese blends in
to the mixture.  It is a delicious salad, doesn't take much time to prepare
and is a great potluck dish.

 Yesterday I purchased some tilapia fish at the store and does anyone
have recipes that I could prepare by either baking it or grilling on the
George Foreman?  Thanks.

Re: [CnD] Problem with Keurig Coffee maker

2009-12-24 Thread Vicki Ratcliffe
 Christina, does your Keurig have two buttons in the front--one is at
the top and the other is at the bottom?  If so, do you know which one is for
power and which one is for brew?

 I'll check the compartment where you put the water in and make sure
that it is secure.

[CnD] Problem with Keurig Coffee maker

2009-12-24 Thread Vicki Ratcliffe
 Maybe someone can help.  I bought the Keurig B30 coffee maker personal
brewer from Amazon and tried to use it today.  I put the water in the slot,
the k-cup in and plugged it in.  I then found two buttons, one for power and
one for brew.  I have pressed them both times and nothing happens.  I also
put the cup on the tray and the two buttons are on the front on the right
hand side.  Does anyone know what button is for what and what I must do to
make this thing work?  Perhaps if you do not know, you have a friend who
might.

[CnD] One more question about Keurig coffee makers

2009-11-29 Thread Vicki Ratcliffe
 I took a look at the Keurig coffee maker yesterday in Macy's and
noticed that there is a button where you press it to determine the size of
the cup to use.  If the button does not click, how do you use it?  Perhaps
some of you use Keurig coffee makers where you do not have to switch the
size of the cup.  Let me know.

[CnD] Kuerig Coffee Makers

2009-11-24 Thread Vicki Ratcliffe
 The Kuerig coffee makers are becoming very popular and has anyone used
them?  I live on my own and want a smaller one or one that I could use for
company to make about six or eight cups of any beverage.  Where do you buy
your coffees or hot chocolate?  From what I know, you have to use their
brand.

Re: [CnD] Jello Mold?

2009-11-19 Thread Vicki Ratcliffe
 I would say that probably using four cups water was too much.  The
added cool whip becomes a little liquidy as well.  Next time I would use two
cups water and just boil it in the microwave.  Then add the jello, stir it
until it is dissolved and cool slightly.  Then add the drained fruit and
cool whip.  I also find that when making jello salads, the recipes that do
not call for cool whip thicken very well.  There is nothing wrong with using
the cool whip but it will not be as thick.

 Check out the ovens by Whirlpool and I understand that they have

[CnD] Crockpot macaroni and cheese

2009-10-25 Thread Vicki Ratcliffe
 Here is a recipe that I made for a potluck last New Year’s day and
flour is not involved.

 

1 12-ounce can evaporated milk (if you feel that it is too much liquid, you
could cut back a bit)

1 and ½ cups milk

8 ounce package macaroni (I used a little more)

2 tablespoons oil

1 teaspoon salt

3 cups shredded cheese

¼ cup butter melted

2 tablespoons minced onion

 

 Cook macaroni as directed on package.  Drain.  In a large bowl, mix the
macaroni with all other ingredients.

 

 Place in a crockpot and cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2&1/2
hours.  I cooked the casserole on high for about two hours and then turned
it down to low.

 

 This recipe feeds a hungry crowd and is so easy to prepare.

 

Vicki
