Book Contributors:Thank you for contributing to the book. You may receive an FM with a pdf file of a page from the book. This page (or pages) will contain your recipe(s). Please proof them and make sure that in the reformatting of the recipe I did not mess it up.
A special thank you to TomLaur0808 who has agreed to be the editor and proof the book.

Re: Official Newlyweds Cookbook - If you want your recipe in the cookbook it has to be on THIS thread.
Is there a place for good cooking tips? If so, I've got a few:
-For the best French Toast ever add vanilla to the egg batter you soak the bread in -Surprisingly a little bit of orange extract tastes good in just about anything with bananas, especially pancakes -Under cook your cookies by one minute and cool them on a countertop to ensure that they are super moist. Never on a sheet or on paper, it'll dry them out or make them rock hard -When cooking anything in the oven check on the dish a little bit before the timer runs out, depending on your oven you may be done already or may need to cook it for longer -Bisquick is a good substitute for flour if you run out -When making apple pie, if you make it with a crumb topping you don't need as much sugar with the apples themselves (otherwise it'll be very soupy) -Do not add wine to hot olive oil, EVER. It will explode. And don't cook on a stove top with champagne unless you're ready to clean up the mess that will follow -When creating a recipe smelling stuff as you're adding it will allow you to get an idea of how it will taste and if it'll all be good together -Bacon makes everything taste better!

Re: Official Newlyweds Cookbook - If you want your recipe in the cookbook it has to be on THIS thread.
Maple-Mustard Pork Loin w/ Roasted Potatoes
Ingredients: 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil 1/4 cup Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary plus 6 sprigs 4 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled One 4-pound boneless pork loin (about 12 inches long) One 8-ounce package lean sliced bacon 6 small baking potatoes (1 1/2 pounds), quartered Salt and pepper
Directions:In a resealable plastic bag, mix together 2 tablespoons olive oil, the mustard, maple syrup, chopped rosemary and garlic. Add the pork and turn in the mixture to coat; refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 375°. Place the rosemary sprigs in the center of a roasting pan. Arrange six 14-inch lengths of kitchen string crosswise, about 2 inches apart, in the pan. Place the marinated pork on top of the strings and rosemary. Lay the bacon slices, on an angle, over the pork loin. Tie each string around the meat to secure the bacon, then trim the loose ends.
Scatter the potatoes around the pork and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil; toss to mix. Season the pork and potatoes with salt and pepper. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 150°, about 1 hour. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the potatoes

Chicken with Lemon
1 chicken about 3 or 4 lbs. cut up (I use chicken pieces packaged, but using breasts, thighs, wings and legs, with bones works best.) 2 or 3 tbsp. olive oil 2 squeezed lemons or 6 tbsp of lemon juice concentrate 2 cloves of garlic chopped salt and pepper to taste
Wash and skin the juices of chicken dry with paper towels.
In a medium size bowl add the lemon juice, Oil and garlic. Stir together. Dip each piece of chicken in the bowl making sure that each piece is covered with the oil, lemon and garlic. Place in a baking pan just big enough to hold the pieces of chicken close together. Season with salt and pepper.
Broil chicken until nicely browned in a high broil. When browned, cover with aluminum foil and return to a slow oven (about 350) for about 1/2 hour.
This chicken comes out tender and delicious.

Broccoli Bake Recipe from MLAngelo
1 bunch of broccoli 1 slice of soft bread (crumbled) 1 hard cooked egg – mashed 4 tbsp. Italian grated cheese 12 tbsp butter or margarine (butter is preferred) salt pepper
Leave the broccoli whole, just cutting off the hard part on the bottom. Broil broccoli. When half cooked put them into an oiled baking pan.
Sprinkle with bread crumbs, mashed egg, pepper and cheese.
Melt butter with 2 cloves of garlic. (don’t brown garlic and don’t brown butter). Cook the garlic very slowly in the butter. Spoon half of the melted butter on the broccoli.
Bake at moderate oven 350o for about 20 minutes. Add the remaining butter and cook for 5 minutes more.
This is a great way to eat broccoli. Its straight from my 102 year old Great Grandmother’s cookbook. She was still making this up until about her 100th.

Re: Official Newlyweds Cookbook - If you want your recipe in the cookbook it has to be on THIS thread.
Whole Wheat Banana Nut Bread
1/3 cup apple sauce 1/4 cup honey 1 tsp vanilla extract 2 eggs 1 & 1/2 cups mashed banana (really ripe work best) 1 & 3/4 cups whole wheat flour 1/2 tsp sea salt 1 tsp baking soda 1/4 cup hot water 1 cup chopped walnuts
Heat the oven to 325 degrees
In a bowl beat together the applesauce & honey. Add eggs and mix well. Mix in the bananas and vanilla. Stir in flour & salt. Add baking soda to hot water mix well, and add to mixture. Mix everything together. Add the walnuts. Mix until the walnuts and coated in the batter. Give it a few good mixes. Spread into a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan, you can spray with cooking spray first or just use a nonstick pan. Bake for 60-75 minutes. Let cool before slicing. If you wrap it well it stays moist for days.
Tips:
Banana: This recipe is best made with bananas that are almost ready to be thrown away. I always have one or two bananas left at the end of a bunch, and instead of tossing them. I peel them, wrap in aluminum foil, and freeze. You pop them out to use for this recipe, and it works great. Just let them defrost for a few minutes, and you mash them in a coffee mug with a wooden soon. Or you can defrost them for a minute in the microwave.
Walnuts: You can vary the amount of walnuts you use. You can use more, use less, or not use any at all.
Applesauce: I use this instead of vegetable oil, I find it makes the bread more moist, with a better flavor.
Whole wheat flour: You can use plain white flour if you prefer.
Eggs: You can substitute egg whites for the whole egg. Just use four egg whites instead of two eggs.
Organic: I usually make this bread with as many organic ingredients as possible. The stop & shop brand nature's promise has great applesauce, honey, flour, etc..

Re: Official Newlyweds Cookbook - If you want your recipe in the cookbook it has to be on THIS thread.
Johnny Casserole (name after my husband Jonathan, this is his favorite dinner)
1lb whole wheat pasta (rigatoni works well) 1 bag frozen broccoli 2 cans Campbell's 98% fat free broccoli cheddar soup 1/4 cup reduced fat milk 1 package reduced fat shredded Italian cheese blend 1lb 99% fat free ground turkey 2 tbsp grated pasta cheese
Pre-heat Oven 350 degrees Cook turkey meat & drain. Boil pasta according to package & drain. Add pasta back to pot, mix in turkey, frozen broccoli, milk, and two cans of soup. Mix well until everything is coated in the soup mix. Spread evenly into a casserole pan. Spray corners or pan with cooking spray first. Top with grated cheese, & shredded cheese. Bake for 25-35 minutes until bubbling, and the cheese is melted. I usually put the broiler on for 5 minutes at the end to make the cheese really crunchy. Just keep an eye on it, b/c it will brown fast.

Re: Official Newlyweds Cookbook - If you want your recipe in the cookbook it has to be on THIS thread.
This is from self magazine from last year. I made them at Thanksgiving last year & they were a big hit.
Flourless Chocolate-Walnut Cookies
Makes 60 cookies
* Parchment paper * 2 1/2 cups walnut halves * 3 cups confectioners' sugar * 1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder * 1/4 teaspoon salt * 4 egg whites * 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1.
Position 2 racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Heat oven to 350°. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Place walnuts on a work surface and finely chop. Transfer to a separate large baking sheet and toast until fragrant, about 9 minutes. Let cool. Mix sugar, cocoa and salt in a bowl. Stir in walnuts. Add egg whites and vanilla; beat with a fork or an electric mixer on medium until batter is just moistened. (Do not overbeat batter or it will stiffen.) Drop batter by the teaspoonful onto baking sheets in evenly spaced mounds. Bake cookies until tops are lightly cracked and glossy, about 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Re: Official Newlyweds Cookbook - If you want your recipe in the cookbook it has to be on THIS thread.
Waldorf Chicken Salad (poultry):
Use your own judgment with quantities and measurements, depending how thick you want it:
Canned white meat chicken (98% fat free)-drain and rinse off in strainer (to get all that yucky water out that it was packed with in the can) chopped celery chopped granny smith apple chopped red seedless grapes golden raisins chopped walnuts squeeze half fresh lemon (keeps apples from turning color)
Then in another bowl: miracle whip 1 spoonful brown sugar a little cinnamon squeeze 1 1/2 lemons
then mix all 'dressing components' and combine into bowl with the rest of the ingredients.
Serve alone, over mixed greens, or with appropriate bread/bread product of your choice.

Re: Official Newlyweds Cookbook - If you want your recipe in the cookbook it has to be on THIS thread.
Ok...these may be too darn lame...but just understand I was single in a tiny Manhattan apartment until I was 41!
Suzanne's banana campfire smores
I find these to be lighter and more delicious than the traditional combination. My camping friends are always skeptical until they have a taste.
2 graham crackers (plain or chocolate) Three marshmallows One banana cut in slices 'the long way'
Lay out graham crackers on plate with slices of banana on top of one side. Use toasting fork to toast marshmallows until golden. Do not burn!!! Trust me, it the marshmallow catches on fire, toast a new one.
Place toasted marshmallows on top of banana and finish with second graham cracker.
Enjoy!
Ambien popcorn
Does anyone else get the munchies after they take an ambien?
I have been known to tinker in the kitchen and came up with this.
Melt butter and tabasco sauce together in microwave. Top air popped or 'no oil' microwave popcorn.
Yummy!

Re: The 09er's Official Newlyweds Cookbook - If you want your recipe in the cookbook it has to be on THIS thread.
I made this for thanksgiving and it was hit!!! It is so easy to make and a delicious dessert!!!
Flan
Serves 6-10 people depending on how you cut it
Ingredients
1 cup white sugar 1 can sweetened condensed milk 1 can evaporated milk 3 eggs 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In a small saucepan, heat the sugar over medium heat. Shake and swirl occasionally to distribute sugar until it is dissolved and begins to brown. Lift the pan over the heat source (4 to 6 inches) and continue to brown the sugar until it becomes golden brown. You may slightly stir while cooking, but continually stirring causes the sugar to crystallize. Pour caramelized sugar into a dish or a loaf pan, and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
Combine sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs and vanilla. Pour over the caramelized sugar.
Place the dish into a larger pan and fill with outer pan with water as high as you can. Then fill the inner pan with the mixture. Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until set. If knife comes out clean, it's ready. Remove and let cool. Put in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours then when ready to serve invert the pan onto a serving, the caramel sauce will flow over the flan.
Then enjoy!!!

Oreo Truffles - I make these every year for Christmas and already my friends at work are making requests for them! They're really easy (but messy) too.
Ingredients 1 (16 ounce) package OREO Chocolate Sandwich Cookies 1 (8 ounce) package PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened 2 (8 ounce) packages BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate, melted (I use the tubs you can just microwave)
Directions Crush the cookies to fine crumbs in food processor; reserve for later use. (Cookies can also be finely crushed in a resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin.) Place in medium bowl. Add cream cheese; mix until well blended. (I usually put this 'dough' into the fridge for about an hour at this step, it makes it less sticky!) Roll cookie mixture into 42 balls, about 1-inch in diameter. Dip balls in chocolate; place on wax paper-covered baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Store leftover truffles, covered, in refrigerator.
I also use the Chocolate Mint Oreos, or you can add flavoring to them (one year I used orange extract, one year was raspberry.)
