Sunday Brunch Casserole
This is one of my standard brunch dishes. I used to make this in the crockpot ... assemble about 10 pm the night before, then let cook on low overnight, and it was all done in the morning. But my new crockpock cooks too fast to do that anymore. I have made this for many occasions, and it's always appreciated. I usually used chopped ham instead of the bacon (more flavor, I think) and dry mustard instead of the dill. People love this, because it has everyone's favorite breakfast ingredients in one dish. Not fancy enough for you? Make a French toast casserole to go with it. A big bowl of fresh, cut-up fruit, a basket of homemade muffins or coffee cakes, a pitcher of juice, mimosas ... there's your brunch, with little effort and great taste and appreciation from everyone else. My daughters make this now for their brunches, also to rave reviews. Don't skimp on the milk, or it will be too much egg in proportion to the rest of the dish and take forever to bake.

Chocolate Zucchini Cake III
A really deep, dark, moist cake. Recipe says bake in a 13x9, picture shows it in a Bundt. I used a Bundt pan and didn't frost or glaze. I reduced oil to barely 1-1/4 cups and sugar to 1-1/2 cups, and I'm sure I could have used just one cup each and it would have been fine. I also put in only 2 cups of zucchini, because that's all I had. Used Hersheys Special Dark Cocoa. An excellent recipe that does not have to be followed to the letter. My family really liked it. Dh was going to take it to a work event. but once he had two pieces, ended up taking something else so he could have this cake at home. If you really love chocolate, add mini chocolate chips for a complete chocolate experience.

Apple Crisp II
A decent crisp recipe, but it didn't need all that water. I think it's a matter of knowing your apples and how much moisture/sugar they need. I prefer brown sugar in a crisp, so that's what I used. But if you want an after-dinner dessert that goes together quickly, this will do it.
