Hi Everyone!

I hope you're having a great day! We're in a big thaw here and it's a nice break after last week's bitter cold!

I wanted to remind you if you haven't seen Terry Rigg's Bill Organizer, be sure to check it out today! It's only $5 and is a fantastic tool to help you get organized for the new year.

We had a reader with an order problem that we can't contact. If your name is and you called and said you sent a money order to order your friend a book, I never received it so please contact me.

Have a great week!

Today's Tips:

At first glance, this week's menu may look pretty ordinary, but every dish has a different twist that makes it different and delicious! Be sure to look at each recipe closely to see what is unusual about it.

Today's menu is particularly nice because you can place three of the main dishes in the oven all at the same time. If you can, always try and bake more than one thing when you have your oven on to save on energy.

In addition to the recipes, today's tips offer some more ideas to improve your normal meatloaf:

Today's Tips:

Using today's meatloaf recipe, make meatballs to serve at a Super Bowl party. This is a delicious alternative to the regular barbecued meatballs. If you use the recipe to make meatballs, turn the oven temperature down to 375°.

If a meatloaf recipe that calls for a little milk, use buttermilk instead. This will give you a more tender meatloaf.

Instead pouring ketchup on top of your meatloaf, try this glaze on it:

Meatloaf Glaze

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard

1 tsp. cider vinegar.

Mix and pour on meatloaf about 15 minutes before it is done.

When making baked apples, you can put all kinds of things in the center, including candied pineapple, orange peel, ginger, peaches, berries, raisins, honey, corn syrup and even marshmallows.

Today's Recipes:

*Extraordinary Meatloaf

1 lb. ground beef

1 lb. sausage (hot if you like it)

1 cup bread crumbs

2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

2 eggs

1 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

3/4 lb. (3 cups) Colby cheese, grated

Heat oven to 400°. Mix all ingredients and place in a loaf pan. Bake 45 minutes.

*Baked Potatoes

If you are watching your weight or you want to eat healthier, replace regular potatoes with sweet potatoes. This works especially well if you have a hard time sticking to a strict diet. Sometimes if you start slowly, substituting one or two healthier things for each meal you can stick to a plan more easily than if you make yourself eat only carrot sticks and broccoli for each meal.

*Broccoli Salad

2 bunches broccoli florets

1 bunch green onions, chopped

1 cup white raisins

1 cup sunflower seeds

Bacon bits

Dressing:

1 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup sugar

Mix broccoli, onions, and raisins. Mix dressing. Pour over broccoli mix and chill. Just before serving, sprinkle with sunflower seeds and bacon bits.

Feel free to adjust this salad. Use less or no dressing for fewer calories and, if you prefer, you can use regular raisins instead of white.

Bread and Jam

Years ago a stack of nice soft bread with jam was always eagerly gobbled down and was a staple at every meal. Wheat or white, homemade or store bought -- it didn't matter, especially when it was spread with butter and your favorite jam, honey or apple butter.

Sometimes we watch so many gourmet shows that show you how to make and use breads with names you can't even pronounce that we forget how much our families love the simple basics like bread and jam.

Baked Apples

Apples, cored

Brown sugar, 1 Tbsp. per apple

Margarine or butter, 1 tsp.. per apple

Cinnamon, 1/4 -1/2 tsp. per apple

Nuts, 1 Tbsp. per apple

Place apples in a baking dish and fill the center of each one with sugar, margarine, cinnamon and nuts. You can also add a small amount of water or apple cider to bottom of the pan.

To kick these up a notch, make apple dumplings:

Set each apple in the center of a circle of pastry dough (pie crust). Then fill with sugar, butter, cinnamon and nuts. Pull the dough up and around the apple. Seal well. Brush with egg white or milk and sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 425° for 10 minutes and then turn down to 375° for 20 more minutes.

Sauce (for 5 apples)

While apples are baking, mix 1 cup water, 2 Tbsp. butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1 tsp. cinnamon in a saucepan. Bring to boil over medium heat. Dissolve 2 tsp. of cornstarch in 2 tsp.. of water and whisk into the hot sauce. Cover and keep warm.

When apples are done, pour some sauce on a plate and set the apple on top.
