Eatmore (and eat more and eat more)

This is a recipe called Eatmore. Not eat more. Eatmore. It's fairly simple, easy, fast, and above all, Yummy!

put together in frying pan

2 cans of corn
2 cans of stewed tomatoes
3 tablespoons dried onion (or 1/2 cup fresh onion)
1 can beef ( or cooked hamburger)
2 1/2 cups macaroni noodles

turn burner onto medium and cover with lid, or top

cook until almost all of the juices have been absorbed, then put a layer of cheese on top, with dollops of sour cream for a finishing touch.
Then, all you have to do is enjoy it!

I hope it turns out well, if you try it.
Best wishes, and I will be back!

Apple pancakes (don't forget the baking soda!)

        This is my first blog I've ever done. I'm 12 years old, and will be relating my cooking experiences on here. One of my big goals in life is to go to Culinary school, and get a job as a chef somewhere.The first recipe we're going to start with, is Apple pancakes.

       This is not the first recipe I've done, but it seemed like a good place to start. This blog is going to be quite hit and miss, because I don't know how often I will get to make something new.I will try to write as much as I can, so bear with me. My mom wrote this one down for me to try. Here it goes.

Mix in bowl

one and one half cups of flour
one half cup dry oats
two tablespoons sugar
one teaspoon salt
two eggs
two tablespoons oil
two and one fourth cups milk
two tablespoons vinegar
one teaspoon cinnamon
two teaspoons baking soda
one teaspoon nutmeg
dried apple slices soaked in water

Pour on to griddle in generous amounts
Flip over, when sides are a light golden color
Then sit back and enjoy!

When I made these, my mom forgot to put baking soda in the recipe, so the pancakes, came out yummy, but very crepe like in texture. A word to the wise, NEVER  forget the baking soda. I'll try to write soon, with another tasty recipe.

P.S. I'm not responsible for any disgusting tasting foods that may result. If that happens, take a closer look at the recipe!
