I seem to recall posting last Sunday and saying something like I was going to start posting menus and such starting today. Well, before we read any further, let me assure us all that it isn't happening. Again. This week. Oh well. :)
It truly was a busy week for us here in CO. The good news of course was my awesome post op check up on Thursday. :) I have no excuse/excuses for not having a menu planned out. I had good intentions, I just never got around to it. Next Sunday? ;)
Instead of a weekly menu though, I will share a recipe that I absolutely love. Thank you Paula Deen!!
blueberry cobbler
Preheat oven to 350. Melt 1 stick of butter(yes, this is one of those splurge things where you really do want to not skimp on the butter). Pour into a 13x9 inch baking dish. In a med to large bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, 1 1/2 cups of sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp cardamom. Mix well. Pour in 1 1/3 cups whole milk(again, this isn't something to skimp with)and whisk until smooth. Pour over melted butter and top/sprinkle/even out 6 cups of fresh blueberries. Sprinkle evenly with 2 tsp orange zest. Bake for 50 minutes. Cool for 10. Serve however you like.
I've tried doing this various ways in order to get it a little bit healthier. It doesn't work. I don't make it often, usually once, maybe twice a summer and that's it for the year, so I don't worry "too" much about all the butter and sugar and whole milk. Just don't eat the whole cobbler yourself! It's equally as good with fresh, homemade whipped cream, or Cool Whip or ice cream. Heck, it's even good all by itself. :)
Happy eating. :)
