I added some low fat pepperoni I had leftover from another project and it was good. My son and his girlfriend liked it (hit - score!) and took half of the leftover salad home. My husband wouldn't touch it - he is such a poop! His loss!
~Cher~I made it too. Was a bit dry. I think it needed more juice to marinate in. I like the idea of salami in it.
I am with your hubby.......I tried twice and just couldn't get to really liking it. Others at the 4th party loved it. Everyone has different taste buds. I thank MamaB for sharing it
Has anyone had success with Turkish Delight? I attempted it last year during our Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe unit. It looked revolting with the green pistachios in a powdered congealed mess. It didn't taste too bad (there was entirely too much sugar for it to turn the kids).

Cream Scones
2 cups flour ¨÷ cup sugar 1 T. baking powder ¨ö t. salt ¨ö cup dried fruit, reconstituted (I used blueberries and cherries and used ¨ö cup of each) 1 ¨ù c. heavy cream
Position a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425¡ÆF. Have ready a large ungreased baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Whisk the first 4 ingredients together thoroughly in a large bowl. Add the dried fruit and toss it with the dry ingredients to coat the fruit. Mix in the cream with a rubber spatula, or fork just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Gather the dough into a ball and knead it gently against the sides and bottom of the bowl 5 to 10 times, turning and pressing any loose pieces into the dough each time until they adhere and the bowl is fairly clean. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and pat the dough into an 8-inch round about ¨ú inch thick. Cut into 8 to 12 wedges and place at least ¨ö inch apart on the baking sheet. Brush tops with 2 to 3 teaspoons cream and sprinkle then with sugar.
Bake until the tops are golden brown, anywhere from 12 to 18 minutes. Let cool on a rack or serve warm.
2 cups flour 1/3 cup sugar 1 T. baking powder 1/2 t. salt 1/2 cup dried fruit, reconstituted (I used blueberries and cherries and used 1/2 cup of each) 1 1/4 c. heavy cream
Position a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Have ready a large ungreased baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Whisk the first 4 ingredients together thoroughly in a large bowl. Add the dried fruit and toss it with the dry ingredients to coat the fruit. Mix in the cream with a rubber spatula, or fork just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Gather the dough into a ball and knead it gently against the sides and bottom of the bowl 5 to 10 times, turning and pressing any loose pieces into the dough each time until they adhere and the bowl is fairly clean. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and pat the dough into an 8-inch round about 3/4 inch thick. Cut into 8 to 12 wedges and place at least 1/2 inch apart on the baking sheet. Brush tops with 2 to 3 teaspoons cream and sprinkle then with sugar.
Bake until the tops are golden brown, anywhere from 12 to 18 minutes. Let cool on a rack or serve warm.
Soak gelatine in water. Heat milk hot but not boiling. Hint: If you pour sugar in the milk but do not stir, it will not burn. Remove from heat. Add gelatine, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Cool; add cream. Put in refrigerator to chill 5 to 6 hours before freezing in an ice cream freezer. It makes 1 gallon. Variation: Chocolate Daily Queen Ice Cream - Mix together 3 tbsp. cocoa and 1/2 cup extra sugar. Heat with milk. Proceed same as vanilla flavor. This gets very fluffy. Enjoy!!
Dissolve 1 - 3 oz. pkg. jello in 1 cup hot water. Divide jello in half; add 3 Tbsp. cold water to one half, and 1/3 cup sour cream to the other half. Pour jello into bowl (starting with the one to which the cold water has been added). Let each layer set before putting on another layer. Repeat for each box of jello. Very colorful to serve in a glass bowl (10 layers).
Butter Chicken 2 eggs, beaten 1 cup crushed buttery round cracker crumbs (I like the Keebler Club crackers the best) 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt ground black pepper to taste 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves 1/2 cup butter, cut into pieces
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F Place eggs and cracker crumbs in two separate shallow bowls. Mix cracker crumbs with garlic salt and pepper. Dip chicken in the eggs, then dredge in the crumb mixture to coat. Arrange coated chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place pieces of butter around the chicken. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
(Added note: I cover w/ foil for the first 25 min. then I remove it.)
