For those who make their own preserves or jellies, this is a real opportunity to show them off. This recipe has been handed down four generations, and is a real favorite.
Flavorful Tater Tot Casserole
This is a tastier version of Tater Tot casserole with hearty ingredients for a full meal. Made with Owens Original Breakfast Sausage, Ro*Tel Diced Tomatoes, frozen broccoli cuts and Ore-Ida Tater Tots. I like it because it is easier than shepherd's pie. My friends and their pre-teen kids love it too. Spread more cheese over potatoes before baking if desired.
Stuffed Eggplant Parmesan Rolls
Had this for the first time at a take-out pizza and pasta place in southern California. We all loved it so much that we came up with our own version that is just as good as the take-out one. This has become an all-time favorite in our house. Serve with your favorite tomato sauce, cream sauce, or other topping sauce. We serve this over spaghetti noodles, then top with favorite sauce sprinkled with cheese. Or just eat as they are straight from the oven.
