Blueberry Cinnamon Roll Crumble from Rhodes
Here's a delicious, quick and easy Breakfast Treat from Rhodes.
These are made in the Rhodes Cinnamon Roll Pan that they come in. It can't get any easier than this.
Here's what you'll need:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
1 package of Rhodes Frozen Anytime Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Frosting.
Allow to sit at room temperature while preparing the rest of the ingredients. They don't have to be completely thawed but this will help them bake evenly in the center.
1 - 21 oz. can of Blueberry Pie Filling, drained. Reserve the syrup to drizzle over the top at the end.
1 C Chopped Pecans
4 TBS Butter, room temperature
1/2 C Flour
1 TBS Cornstarch
1/2 C Brown Sugar
Spread the frozen rolls evenly with Blueberries.
In a small bowl:
Butter
Cornstarch
Flour
Brown Sugar
Pecans
Mix well with a Blending Fork to create a Crumble.
Sprinkle evenly over the Blueberries.
Place the pan on a Sheet Pan to Bake.
Bake 35 minutes.
Remove the pan to a rack.
Drizzle evenly with the packet of Frosting included with the Rolls.
Drizzle evenly with Syrup.
Enjoy!

For a nice presentation, transfer the rolls to a serving platter just prior to serving. Drizzle with the Frosting and Syrup while it's on the platter. |

Cherry Chocolate Bundt Cake
If you follow my Blog you know that we attend a Mennonite Relief Sale in Kansas every Spring. I buy as many Amish and Mennonite Family Cook Books that I can find. There's a booth that has six foot tables filled with cookbooks. I have an amazing collection.
Here's a recipe from The Yoder Centennial Cookbook. I've adapted part of the recipe to make it more current without changing the integrity of the original one.
Here's what you'll need:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
1 - 10 C Bundt Pan brushed well with Pan Release Mix. (equal parts of Crisco, Vegetable Oil and Flour) I start with 1 C of each mixed well and refrigerated in a jar. I always have it available for all of my baking needs.
1 - 10 oz. can of Cherry Pie Filling
1 Chocolate Cake Mix
1 tsp Almond Flavoring
2 large Eggs
Here are the instructions as written in the original recipe:
Hand mix the Pie filling and flavoring, add slightly beaten eggs and mix the cake mix (by hand)
until blended.
Fill into a Bundt Pan and bake for 35 to 40 min. at 350 degrees.
Frosting:
1 C Sugar
1/3 C Milk
2 TBS Butter
Mix and boil for 1 minute. Then add:1 C Chocolate Chips.
Spread on cooled cake.
Enjoy!

Hash Brown Potato Soup in a Crock Pot + My Original Macaroni and Cheese with Hash Browns
Anne made this soup yesterday. I'll post a picture the next time we have a bowl.
It's really delicious. It's not your traditional Potato Soup because it's made with Hash Browns. I like the texture. I have a great recipe for Macaroni and Cheese made with the addition of Hash Browns. It's really good. I posted it at the end of this recipe.
Potato Soup in a Crock Pot
1 - 30 oz. bag of Shredded Frozen Hash Browns.
4 C Vegetable Broth or Vegetarian Chicken Broth
1 - 10 oz. can of Cream of Celery Soup
Salt and Pepper to taste.
8 oz. Cream Cheese, cubed
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
1 TBS Dried Parsley
Garnishes:
Vegetarian Bacon Bits
Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Sliced Green Onion or Chives
additional Sour Cream
In a large Crock Pot:
Frozen Hash Browns
Broth
Celery Soup
Salt and Pepper
Cover and cook on Low for 5 hours.
Add:

Cook for an additional hour, stirring often until the Cheese is well combined.
Garnish individual serving according to taste.

This is just another version of Baked Macaroni and Cheese
I can't seem to have enough recipes for it. I even created this one because I couldn't find one that i really liked. This also has shredded potatoes in it, which are an unusual ingredient for Macaroni and Cheese, but I think you'll find that it's a great addition.
This one is very "cheesy" and delicious! I was never really fond of a bread crumb topping, however I have learned to like them. This recipe was created, because I wanted a version, without a topping.
I created it in 2007 and it continues to be one of my favorites.
Macaroni and Cheese (original recipe, 2007)
Pre heat the oven to 350 degrees.
Butter a large Casserole , Dutch Oven or a 10" Cast Iron Skillet. I like to cook in Cast Iron.
3 C whole Milk
2 8oz. packages of Cream Cheese, cubed
1 pound of Elbow Macaroni
1 pound bag of Frozen Shredded Potatoes
2 pounds of Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
In a 6 quart stock pot, add salted water a bring to a boil.
Add Macaroni and Potatoes and cook until the Pasta is Al Dente according to the package directions.
Drain
In a large sauce pan over medium heat, bring milk to a boil.
Reduce heat and add the Cream Cheese, stirring until melted.
Gradually stir in the Cheddar Cheese until melted.
Add Pasta and Potatoes
Salt and Pepper to taste
Place mixture in a the Casserole Dish, cover and Bake for 25 - 30 minutes.
Remove the cover and broil the top, if desired, to brown it.
It can also be Baked in a covered 10" Cast Iron Skillet.
Enjoy!
