I need a recipe for cream of broccoli soup. Thanks in advance!

Does anyone have a good recipe for Chinese vegetables like you get at restaurants. It has
celery and onions, maybe bean sprouts and is nicely flavored. Is this just a typical stir- fry dish? Thanks,

Laurel

Someone asked for fun Halloween recipes recently- I would like some too. Maybe something that
works as appetizers rather than desserts though. Thank you for anything you all may have.

Mini Elephant Ears

White dinner roll dough (10 rolls)
Cooking oil
1/2 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. ground cinnamon
3 Tbsp. butter (melted)

Thaw dough at room temperature for 2 hours. Heat oil in electric skillet to 375°F. Combine
sugar & cinnamon; set aside. Stretch each piece of dough into a flat ear shape. Fry, a few at
a time for 1½ minutes per side until browned. Drain on paper towels. Brush with butter &
sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Makes 10 servings.

The real, the original, the authentic Recipe-

Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookie

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks, 1/2 pound) butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated [white] sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 cups (12-ounce package) NESTLE TOLL HOUSE Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
1 cup chopped nuts

COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar
and vanilla in large mixer bowl. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition;
gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto
ungreased baking sheets.

BAKE in preheated 375-degree [Fahrenheit] oven for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Let
stand for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

PAN COOKIE VARIATION: PREPARE dough as above. Spread into greased 15"x10" jelly-roll pan.
Bake in preheated 375-degree [Fahrenheit] oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool in pan on wire rack.

FOR HIGH ALTITUDE BAKING (>5,200 feet): INCREASE flour to 2 1/2 cups; add 2 teaspoonfuls
water with flour; reduce both granulated sugar and brown sugar to 2/3 cup each. Bake at 375
degrees Fahrenheit, drop cookies for 8 to 10 minutes and pan cookies for 17 to 19 minutes.

Re: Food gifts for Amber

I've been doing food gifts for years. The possibilities are endless, soup mix, cookies, breads, sweet breads, cake mixes. My favorites are soup mixes, especially Friendship Soup which I may have gotten originally from this site. I made it originally for my niece when he was a college student. Now she is a pharmacist and still occasionally makes it.

Friendship Soup Mix

1/2 cup dry split peas
1/3 cup beef bouillon granules
1/4 cup barley
1/2 cup lentils (I prefer red lentils ­prettier)
1/4 cup dried minced onions
2 tsp Italian Seasonings
1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice
1/2 cup Alphabet or other small macaroni

Additional Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef
3 quarts. Water
1 can (28 oz ) diced tomatoes, undrained

Friendship Soup

Directions:
In a 1 1/2 pint jar, layer the first eight ingredients as listed in order. Put the macaroni
in a small Ziploc bag. Put the bouillon cubes in a small Ziploc bag. Seal Tightly. Yields
one batch

Note: Square Spaghetti Sauce jars or the Dole Fruit jars (24 oz) are perfect for this.

To prepare the Soup:
Carefully remove the macaroni and bouillon cubes (or powder) and set aside. In a large sauce
pan, brown the ground beef. Add water, tomatoes and the remaining ingredients of the soup
mix. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat; cover and simmer for 45 minutes. Add the
reserve macaroni; cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the macaroni, peas, lentils and
barley are tender. Yields: 16 servings (4 quarts.) per batch.

I thought I had the amounts to use for making 8 or 10 batches from when we did this as a
church project but I can't find it.
