Bronzing and Oven Roasting- 4 Recipes for A Quick Meal

I don’t want to cook! So here are my go-to recipes for a fast and easy meal that has great flavor. Bronzing was developed by Chef Paul Prudhomme as a substitute for his blackening technique which cannot be done in a home kitchen due to the smoke and high heat. I use all his Magic Seasonings depending on the type of meat I cook. Some seasonings are hard to find, so I have included the recipe for Poultry Seasoning. It is good to make up and keep on hand, especially for days like this! Enjoy

    Scalloped Potatoes

    Scalloped Potatoes have always been one of my favorites but I rarely made them because they were so labor intensive. But this recipe is relatively easy compared to making a sauce for other versions. Caramelizing onions takes a while but can be done early while working in the kitchen. A bunch can be cooked and stored in the freezer for a variety of uses.

    There is no sauce to make in this recipe. The heavy cream and Parmesan cheese will make its own sauce while the potatoes cook. The result is creamy potato slices with a flavorful cream sauce. You must try this recipe. Enjoy!

      Thanksgiving Menu- Decadent Mashed Potatoes and Green Bean Au Gratin

      We made Decadent Mashed Potatoes very often at Sweets & Eats. Mainly because they never seized up and got hard. That is a boon if you want to make them ahead of time for a Take and Bake or make them the day before for a busy meal. It is full of calories with cream cheese, sour cream, butter and everything you dream about! But it’s Thanksgiving, so go ahead, splurge and enjoy!

      As you know, I am not a fan of canned soups.  So Green Bean Casserole is not a highlight of our Thanksgiving meal.  Then I found the recipe for Green Beans Au Gratin.  It is the perfect substitute with a creamy, cheese sauce and it can be topped with canned onion rings if you wish.  Yes, it is a little more trouble but it is worth it,  Enjoy!
