Elven Matson 1 cup orange juice 2 tablespoons grated orange rind 1 cup sugar 1 cup orange sections cut in pieces 2 tablespoons cornstarch 3 egg yolks, beaten 2 tablespoons lemon juice 2 tablespoons butter/margarine Add orange juice, lemon juice, orange
rind, sugar, cornstarch and softened butter ****************** Machiel Williams 1 dozen tortillas, cut into one-inch
squares 6 to 8 eggs 1 cube margarine or butter (cut in half) 1 lb. cheddar cheese, (grated) 1 pint sour cream (not imitation, at room
temperature) 1 bunch green onions (chopped, use ends) 2 cans chopped olives 1 can Rosarita Enchilada Sauce (use only
3/4 of the can) Assembly: The easiest method is to use an
electric frying pan because it is the right size and has a good lid and is
easy to regulate the heat. Have all ingredients ready before you begin.
Melt half the butter at medium heat and add squared tortillas. Toss around
and cook at medium until most of the butter is absorbed - they will be
golden in color. Push all tortillas to the very edge of the
pan, leaving as large an area in the center as possible. Melt the
remaining half cube of butter in the center of the pan and crack all eggs
into the pan. Do not disturb until the whites of the eggs are mostly set
(medium to medium low heat). After the whites are set, toss the eggs with
the tortillas. Sprinkle half the green onions over the egg mixture.
Drizzle the enchilada sauce over the egg and tortilla mixture. You
shouldn't use the whole can or it may be too runny. Now, an even layer of cheese, using it
all. Now, the black olives. Now, the sour cream and sprinkle the last of
the onions over the sour cream as a garnish. Cover for about 20 minutes,
on low heat or until you are sure the cheese is melted. Turn off the heat,
remove the lid and wait a couple of minutes before serving. This will make
it easier to serve. ****************** Chocolate Zucchini Cake (Bread) Deborah Oakeson 2 & 1/2 cups flour 1/2 cup cocoa 2 & 1/2 tsp. baking powder 1 tsp. salt 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 tsp. baking soda 3/4 cup margarine 2 cups sugar 3 eggs 2 cups zucchini, fresh 1/2 cup milk Sift together flour, cocoa, baking powder,
