Penny’s Cranberry Sauce

I have been making this since 1983 or 1984 and have made it almost every year. I do change it up sometimes by using Splenda and SF jam or adding some orange zest. I love it!

Boil 2 cups of cranberries until they pop in 1/2 c water and 1/2 cup sugar. Cook until berries are soft and then add 1/2 to 3/4 cups apricot preserves. Chill and Serve.


Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce

 

 

Hannah and Josh loved this growing up! The kids always collected those little free recipe cards from the grocery store when we would go shopping and the store would have samples of food and a recipe cards to take and make the recipe at home. This is one they collected for us and they loved it so much it was one of their favorite meals. We always served it with garlic toast or bread.

 

 

1 small can Campbell’s Cream of broccoli soup

A small chunk of Velveeta (enough to make the soup cheesy)

¾ cup milk

1 t dried basil

3 plum tomatoes, diced

¼ c parmesan cheese, grated

12 oz fettuccine pasta, cooked and drained

 

In sauce pan, mix soup, cheese and basil over heat until it heats just to a boil, stirring continually, till creamy, then add tomatoes and parm cheese. Stir till to blend and cook over heat for a couple minutes.

Toss over hot fettuccine.
