Well, our hostess, Juli, for the 2nd dinner meeting did a fantastic job.  She started off with butternut toasts with sage ricotta and then a spicy crab with cream cheese on toast.  This was followed by the best cauliflower and mushroom soup I've ever tasted.  Really!!  I brought some home. … MORE

Kansas Baked Beans
Really good. Too hot - will cut back on pepper next time. But otherwise excellent.

Squash Potatoes
Really good! I never thought to do this. I used a Gold Nugget Squash that I've been wanting to use up. Awesome idea!!

Chicken Wild Rice Soup III
Very simple. I did not add rice. I just could not fathom potatoes and rice in the same dish. Since I had potatoes I wanted to use up, potatoes it was. I also did not not precook the chicken. It went in raw and actually still a hint frozen. I added the cream at the end and also the Wondra (in place of flour). Tasted fine. Not over the top, not bad. Just a nice easy meal.
