I made noodles last night, but they were rather tough. The recipe is 1 egg + 1/2 c flour per person. I wonder if I overworked the dough? or did I not work it enough?
How thin did your roll the dough? one egg per person actually seems like a lot. I probably serve one eggs worth per 2-3 people and we always have plenty. (I make chicken and noodles).
I roll it as thin as I can manage. Lots of flour, and almost paper thin. One eggs worth of noodles would be about 2 foot by 3 foot all rolled out.
I'm looking for a tried and true breakfast casserole. It's for a bridal shower brunch. There will be other sweets so I need an egg dish. I tried a breakfast casserole dish and it turned out very runny. Any good recipes? Thanks!

My children only eat: mac n chz chix nuggets ham and cheese sandwiches milk yogurt fruit bread tortillas/cheez HELP!!!!! Any ideas to expand their cuisine?
I saw a show recently that asked children to name chicken, a real one, and then when they couldn't the person showed them that chicken nuggets were chicken.
My husband wouldn't eat chicken when we married. He liked chicken breast, no bones or skin. So I made chicken breasts with no bones or skin, or I boned the chicken that I cooked before I served it.
I would start with the foods your kids like, go to the "natural" version and then have them help cook things they like that are healthy. Instead of pizza, make mini-pizzas with spagetti sauce (canned is okay) and cheese and cooked meat (shredded chicken or beef, ground beef) and broil thepizzas until the cheese melts. We like bar-b-q chicken pizza, use bbq sauce, shredded chicken, red onions (probably not for kids) and mozzarella cheese. I wouldn't try these the first time, but who knows.
Ask your kids for their favorite meal and try to include them in the cooking of that meal.
I think what they need is some veggie-based stew. Maybe you could blend some chunks (of both meat and veg) from the stew and make a pate-like spread to dip their finger foods into. Make it real tasty with their favorite flavors at first, and then each consecutive time put a little less cheesy/ketchupy stuff and little more veg.

TEAROOM SQUASH SOUP Form Southern Lady Magazine 10 – 12 Yellow squash 2 onions, chopped Salt 1 tsp cumin 1 tsp garlic powder 2 sticks butter (I put only one) 3 8oz. Pkg Velveta Cheese (I used 2) 1 tsp cayenne 1 tsp white pepper 1 quart half & half ¼ tsp baking soda
Cook squash and onions in a large sauce pan with water to cover. When tender, drain and puree. You can use a stick blender in the sauce pan or transfer to a food processor in small batches. Combine puree with salt, cumin, garlic powder, butter, cheese, cayenne pepper, white pepper, baking soda and half & half. Heat thoroughly and serve. Garnish with parsley and sour cream. 10 Servings ( Easily serves 12 –15)
Note: Always a hit. I leave some squash pieces to add to the pureed mixture for a better texture.
