Well, that was a fun weekend. Thanks John/Yvonne and Willem/Helle for hosting everyone. Next weekend - Sunday June 18 Jake and I will host everyone after church for a luncheon for Father's Day and Aalysia's and Emma's Birthdays. We hope that you can make it. Consider this your invitation! Several people asked me for recipes over the weekend, so here they are:
Boterkoek (Almond Tart)
2/3 cup margarine
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp almond flavouring
1 egg beaten
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup slivered almonds
Mix first three ingredients together. Add beaten egg - except for 2 tsp. Sift flour and baking powder together and add in with the other ingredients. Press this stiff mixture into a greased pie plate. Brush the remaining egg mixture over the top. Sprinkle on the slivered almonds. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 - 30 minutes. Cool.
Layered Salad
1 medium head of lettuce with some spinach or Romaine mixed in if you wish
1 cup sliced celery
3 hard cooked eggs, sliced
10 oz. fresh or frozen peas
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
4 green onions, sliced
6 oz. water chestnuts, sliced
8 bacon slices, cooked and crumbled
1 cup cheddar cheese
Dressing:
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup sour cream
2 tbsp granulated sugar
Shred, cut or break lettuce into small pieces in and 9x12 pan. Scatter each layer in order given (except the bacon and cheese). Mix the Dressing together and spread over the top being careful to seal right to the edge of the pan. Scatter grated cheese and bacon over the top. Seal with plastic wrap. Store in the fridge at least 8 hours. Serve.
