Our caravan of rental truck, long-bed pick-up truck, and Ford Explorer arrived in Indiana around 8:30 last night. When has there been snow on spring break? We did miss most of it, but the vehicle are covered with salt.
For a quick dinner, I brought with us the ingredients for tuna casserole made with evaporated milk, since we did not have time to stop at a store. I had to use canned rather than frozen peas, but I used spinach noodles and Gouda cheese. Our starving crew (my husband, younger stepson, and his friend) likely would have eaten anything, but they all praised it, and I have to admit, it is delicious. It's been a while since I've cooked for this many guys.
On Wednesday, I baked the lemon cake from Susan Purdy's The Perfect Cake and assembled it that evening--with lemon curd between two layers. I take it to the office tomorrow for a birthday celebration. I used Hudson Mill bleached flour this time, and the cake seems to have baked far better. (Thank you, Cass!).
I also tried the Lemon Drops recipe from Peter Reinhart & Denene Wallace's The Joy of Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free Baking, because one of the two staff members having a birthday has some kind of gluten intolerance. I tasted them-YUK. My husband agreed. There is a weird aftertaste. Maybe it's the Stevia in the Raw. I threw them in the trash--which is a sad waste of ingredients not to mention time. It's the first recipe I've tried from that book. I'm not sure if I will try another.
I also baked two loaves of my Buttermilk Grape Nuts Bread, which is my husband's favorite.-
What about Biscotti? KAF has a variety of recipes. I like the Barista Biscotti Bites (leave off the chocolate coating), the Maple-Walnut Biscotti, and the Butter Pecan Biscotti to which Cwcdesign introduced us last Christmas.
Also, I recommend the Greek cookies, Kouluria. The recipe is here in the thread from the Baking Circle that I posted, titled Kouluria.
Navlys–as for your request. I suggest going to “Search Forums,” and clicking on the search. Put in “cottage cheese” using the quotation marks. I did that, and 20 results crop up (not all of them recipes). See if one of the recipes is what you are seeking.
If you know who the original poster was, you can also search using “by Name of Poster.”
Rottiedogs, S. Wirth, and I saved as much as we could, but we probably only managed to save about 75% at most of what was there–and that percentage is amazing given how little time KAF gave us to extract what we could. If S. Wirth sees this post, she may have a clearer idea of whether the recipe that you are trying to find is here. In the meantime, maybe someone knows of such a recipe?
