Chuck's Favorite Mac and Cheese
The weather here cooled way down-went from 95 to 55 in one day-so I decided to get away from the BBQ and try this mac & cheese casserole. Great combination of flavors! Make sure to pay attention to the quantities in the receipe- 8oz of pasta not 12 oz and you will come out allright. Also add a can of evaporated milk & a teaspoon of dry mustard powder. Top with panko crumbs mixed with a 1/4 cup parmesan. Make sure to use good quality local cheeses and don't worry about the fat. Savor the moment!

Boston Brown Bread III
This bread recipe is great. Baking in Central Oregon is always a challenge - I'm at 4200 ft and dry, so I used two smaller pans. The bread came out done in the middle with a nice crust. Also used Bob's Red Mill unbleached white flour & whole wheat pastry flour. Served with Boston Baked Beans made with Canadian bacon - great meal for a snowny Sunday afternoon.

South Coast Hominy
This dish is a meal in itself. I used panko for the breadcrumbs so the topping came out nice and crunchy. I also doubled the recipe 'cause all I could find here was a 29 oz can of hominy - I felt lucky to find that - most people in Central Oregon don't even know what hominy is!
