  1. this is exactly what i was looking for..too lazy to pull out the recipe. except too this i add red pepper chopped fine and brocolli. and all cream sauces taste great with a little pinch of fresh nutmeg. just kicks it up, flavor wise. thanxs
     
  2. For something made in this quickly this was very good. It thickens well upon standing and with an added sprinkling of parmesan you can't beat it for a quick lunch, TFS.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am happily married for 18 years with 3 teenagers. I only work part-time because I spend lots of time at home cooking and baking healthy meals for my family including my grand-mother's homemade bread recipe. I make it the old fashioned way (with a bit of elbow grease) rather than a bread maker. The recipe makes 5 loaves and lasts me about a week. My family loves coming home on a bread making day - the house smells so yummy. I try to buy organic ingredients as much as possible. I stay away from all artificial sweeteners and low-fat items. My motto is to have a nice snack of 2 wonderful tasting high fat cookies than eating half a box of low fat tasteless cookies. My passion besides baking is homeopathy. I keep my family healthy with homepathic remedies when we are sick. My medicine cabinet has no precription medications or over the counter drugs. We have been antibiotic free since I was introduced to homeopathy about 5 years ago. It is really a gift from God.
