This doesn’t last long in our house – kids prefer this over white bread!
1 C + 2 Tbsp water
1/3 C honey (or a little more)
1 ½ Tbsp shortening
1 ½ C whole wheat flour
1 ½ C white flour
1 ½ tsp salt
1 Tbsp dry milk
1 ½ tsp active dry yeast
Place ingredients in bread machine with wet ingredients first. Put the yeast in last in a small depression made by your thumb or spoon (to keep the yeast dry until the mixing starts). Select whole wheat setting (probably best on the lightest color setting) and press start.

Brown beef and add spaghetti sauce & 1 C. water. Let simmer till the rest is ready.
Beat egg in a medium mixing bowl. Add ricotta, parmesan cheese, ½ C. water, 3-4 C. mozzarella, parsley, nutmeg, salt & pepper and mix. (If it’s difficult to stir, add more water).
Preheat oven to 350. Pour 2 C. of sauce mix into bottom of 9x13 pan. Rinse lasagna noodles in hot water. Place first layer of noodles in pan then add half of the cheese mixture spread out on noodles. Pour approx. 1 ½ C. sauce over cheese. Add another layer of noodles and repeat cheese then sauce directions. Add last layer of noodles and pour remaining sauce on top. Sprinkle parmesan cheese and mozzarella on top (I like A LOT). Cover and bake 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake 15 more minutes. IMPORTANT: Let stand for 10 minutes before serving (or noodles will not cook all the way through).

Stefani's German Apple Pancakes
The original recipe fills one 9 inch or so pie plate. If you double it, it's good for a 9x13 pan. I have used all different kinds of apples- pretty much whatever is cheapest (except not red delicious). Good eating!
Original: 1/4 c butter or margarine
1 1/2 c milk
3/4 c flour, unsifted
1/3 c sugar
3 eggs
1/4 t salt
3 apples peeled and sliced thinly
1 1/2 t lemon juice
3 T brown sugar
1/2 t cinnamon
3 T butter
Preheat oven to 400. Put butter in glass 9" pie plate. Bake 5 min or until butter melts and bubbles. Adjust heat to 450. Put milk, flour, sugar, eggs and salt into blender. Mix on med. speed until smooth. remove pie plate from oven. Immediately pour in mixture all at once. Return to oven. Back for 20 min at 450. Lower heat to 350. Bake 8-10 min more (until edges are puffed and browned). A well will form in the middle. Meanwhile, make filling. Toss apple slices in lemon juice. Set aside. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. Melt butter. Stir in apples. Sprinkle with brown sugar mixture. Simmer for 15-20 min.(until apples are just barely tender). Spoon into pancake.

Amy's Green Carnitas Enchiladas
2 10oz. cans green enchilada sauce
1 1/4 C. chopped fresh cilantro
1 bag of 'Costco Carnitas' (2 bags come in a container-find it in the refrigerated section by the prepared meals)
2 1/2 C. shredded Mexican cheese
Salt & Pepper
about 12 taco-sized, flour tortillas
Adjust rack to middle position and heat to 400 degrees.
Butter bottom of 9X13 baking dish.
Puree enchilada sauce and 1 C. cilantro in a blender. Slightly heat carnitas while in bag (30 seconds). Pull carnitas apart with fork (removing and fatty parts). Combine 1 C. enchilada sauce mixture, carnitas, and 1 1/2 C. cheese in a large bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt & pepper.
Wrap tortillas in a clean kitchen towel and microwave until pliable, 30 to 90 seconds. Top each tortilla with 1/4 C. carnitas mixture and roll tightly. Arrange seam side down in baking dish. Lightly butter tops of enchiladas or spray lightly with cooking spray, then top with additional 1 C. enchilada sauce mixture and remaining cheese (my kids prefer less of the sauce on top). Bake until cheese is melted and enchiladas are heated through, 15-20 min. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro and serve. I like to serve it with chopped olives, tomatoes, and avocado.
