Sounds like you may be spending Easter at my house. I've already informed one and all they can do whatever they like, but I'm not cooking.
Although I'm thinking Absolut martini's

Only ones I've seen so far are kinda a long drive away. I may pick up a leg of lamb on sale as Mike loves lamb, but I don't relish cooking it Sunday. We need dinner out.

sorbet for dessert?
kate
Diane - 10 Apr 2006 18:51 GMT yes, sorbet is a given. i always have some on hand for him. i like the roasted veggies, and the asparagus ideas. thanks.

johnie - 10 Apr 2006 20:00 GMT > sorbet for dessert? kate, this past year we finally got a new juicer and use it every day. i love it. one of the new things i have become addicted to is fresh sorbet. I like mangos and berries but usually end up with a combo of fruits. instead of throwing the pulp away i add a bit of juice to get a thinner consistency and just freeze it. amazing how good it can get. the trick for me was cleaning the fruit more than usual before juicing it. deseeding and coring and peeling etc... add a little vanila ice cream for sorbet and cream. I still break down from time to time and get a little haggen-daz raspberry sorbet but the homemade stuff is top notch and the price is right. >g<

Adelle - 10 Apr 2006 16:20 GMT Sounds like my house year round.
Fleischmann's unsalted Margarine (green lettering on box) has no dairy in it, can be used in place of butter.
Learn to look for the kosher markings on items. If it says "pareve," there will be no milk. Will still need to check ingredients for eggs and wheat.
Can still do whipped potatoes - use canned/boxed chicken or vegetable broth instead of milk.
Any steamed veggie, let people add their own topping (cheese or white sauce on the side?)
Any sautéed veggie, use (olive) oil instead of butter.
It's Passover time. If your store has a kosher for Passover section, get a package of potato starch and use wherever you would use flour or cornstarch for thickening.
My neighbor growing up always served turnip (rutabaga) and sauerkraut with her ham - and she was Irish.
Haagen Daz used to have dairy free sorbets for dessert (serve w/fruit). Fancy Jell-O stuff works for dessert, whipped cream on the side.
Substituting for eggs was the worst, and I never got the hang of it. So glad Ian outgrew that allergy.
There was just someone in the local (New England) news featured for her egg free baking, which is now available by on-line mail order. Some of her stuff is even wheat free. Don't have time to do the Google search for you, though - need to work on Passover stuff. Her story is she has a son with significant allergies and wanted stuff he could bring to playdates, etc. Her stuff was so popular, she turned into a business.
Happy cooking!

oh, i bet it felt good to write, though. first time in 20 years! wow! thanks for the idea of looking for kosher foods. i also love the turnip and sauerkraut. . . but i fear i'll be the only one in the family who does.

Would a mushroom, onion and sage tart taste good with ham.
I'm making one for passover using potato instead of matzah/bread and could send you the recipe (or what serves as one).

Caramelize onions (I used 2 large plus an half one sitting in the veggie drawer).
Sautee sliced mushrooms of various kinds in olive oil, season w/salt and pepper as they sauté. (I'm using about a cup of shitakes, half cup of oyster, one cup white and 2 cup crimini AKA baby bellas, cause that's what I found running around to local market and trader joe's)
Slice and sauté large portabellas (also season them).
food process potatoes so it yields about 1 cup of puree.
In bowl, beat two eggs until uniform in color. Add 1 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, and half teaspoon each of sage, marjoram and any other savory herb you like (dill, savory, chive, tarragon etc. If using more than 3 spices total, reduce amts of each spice) and teasp baking powder. add potato and mix well. Then fold in mushrooms and onions, mix thoroughly. Should have consistency of oatmeal. If too runny add potato starch by tablespoon until it does (It wheat is OK, use flour or matzah meal). Drier than oatmeal is OK, just check for faster cooking time.
Spray or lightly grease baking dish (I'm using 2 foil 6X8 pans just cause I have them and don't want to wash Corelle). Layer bottom of pan with slices of sautéed portabellas. Pour mixture on top. Bake at 425 approx 1 hour until toothpick comes out clean, or with just mushroom wetness on it, not batter. Top should brown. If starts to get too brown, turn oven down a bit, but may need to cook a little longer.

Diane - 12 Apr 2006 17:48 GMT oh, yummy! thanks, adelle.

Navy1 - 12 Apr 2006 21:11 GMT Sounds good to me! We're eating at my son's house and all he would say was ham and fixin's!
