            STUFFED STEAK

   1 Round steak, about 1/2 inch thick
   1 can of Stovetop Stuffing (you won't need it all)
   seasonings to your taste ( I like cavenders)
   1 cup of Pepsi
   1/4 cup brown sugar
   1 cup spaghetti sauce
   about 10 toothpicks
   1 casserole dish

   Take the round steak an cut it down the fat line into 2 pieces. Tenderize the steak pieces with a meat hammer  

   until about 3/8" thick. Rub your seasoning into the meat. Take a small amount of  Stovetop Stuffing and 

   place it lengthwise in the middle of the meat. Now poke a toothpick threw one side of the meat near an end, 

   bring up the very end of the meat and poke the toothpick  threw it and then the other side of the meat. 

   You should now have a pocket, stuff the pocket with the stuffing bringing up the sides of the meat and 

   holding it in place with a toothpick. Your steaks should now look like 2 tubes. Place the tubes in a casserole dish.

    In a small mixing bowl, place the Pepsi, brown sugar, and spaghetti sauce and mix well. It should be slightly runny.

    If it 's not add small amounts of water.

   Now pour the sauce over the tubes making sure that some of it gets to the stuffing. 

   Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes in the covered casserole dish.

   Pull the toothpicks  before serving, cut the tubes in 1/2 (make 4 smaller tubes) serves 4.

               20 CLOVE CHICKEN
 

     4-6 BONELESS SKINLESS CHICKEN BREASTS
     2 BULBS OF GARLIC
     APPLE JUICE

     Break apart the garlic bulbs and remove only the loose skin, do not peel.
     Line the bottom of an 9X13 glass baking dish with the cloves of garlic.
     As many as it takes to cover the bottom fairly evenly.  Lay the chicken boobs on
     top of the garlic, and fill the dish with apple juice, about half way up the side of
     the chicken, so it will absorb the flavor.  Cover with foil and bake about one hour
     at 350, or until done.  At the table, each person squeezes the garlic cloves onto
     good Italian bread, or onto toast. You will be amazed at the flavor and mildness
     after it cooks in the juice. A garlic lovers dream.

               PASTA WITH BROCCOLI

     1 lb. long pasta of your choice (I like angle hair)
     2 pg. frozen broccoli cuts, or one cauliflower & one broccoli, or two
     cauliflower, according to family tastes.
     1 can Chicken Broth
     garlic to taste
     onion to taste

      Cook the pasta as per directions and drain.  While the pasta is cooking, chop
      onion, crush the garlic, salt and pepper to taste.  Cook the vegetables in the broth,
      onions, and garlic.  Pour over the drained pasta, in a serving dish, and serve hot.
      I usually use a soup bowl to eat out of due to the liquid.
     An option that I use sometimes is to cook a couple of chicken breast (boneless,
     skinless) in the broth, then remove and shred.  Add it back to the broth while cooking
     vegetables.

             MIRLITON  STUFFING


    6 medium-size mirlitons or as many as you want.  This depends on how much
    stuffing you want to end up with. (Coyote       Squash or Vegetable Pears)
     l/4 to 1/2 cup of chopped yellow onions (or white onions)
     l/4 cup milk
     2 tablespoons margarine or butter
     3/4 cup of finely chopped green onions
     3 garlic cloves, minced   (optional - or you can use garlic powder depending on
     personal taste)
     1 cup of bread crumbs
     l/4 cup parsley (fresh or dried)
     l/2 cup olive oil
     l/2 cup of raw shrimp, chopped fine   (See note about meat at bottom of page)
     l/2 cup cooked ham        (See note about meat at bottom of page)
     l/2 teaspoon salt
     l/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper       (optional - use to taste if want hotter)

      NOTE:   While cooking mirlitons, you can be getting meat ready; cut up all seasoning.
       Fry off ground meat and ham; shrimp should be cooked just a little.

      1.) Wash mirlitons thoroughly; cut in halves;  place cleaned mirlitons in pot
      and cover with water; boil until tender (about one hour).  Tenderness can
      be tested when fork can be place into mirliton with ease.  Remove from
      heat; remove mirlitons from water; place on plate or other flat surface until
      cool enough to handle with bare hands.  Scoop out seeds and discard.  Scoop
      out pulp and place in bowl.  This can be done easily with a teaspoon.  Try not
      to make hole in skin.  Place on side.

     2. Sauté onions, green onions, garlic and parsley in olive oil.  Just enough olive oil
     to cover bottom of pan.  Add meat.  Cook, all ingredients stirring gently until
     well blended.

     3. Add mirliton pulp, smash pulp to mix in with sautéed ingredients.   You will
     notice mixture sort of watery.  Add bread crumbs, little at a time.  Mixture will
     begins looking like a paste.  Add your milk and margarine and cook
     until paste consistency is acquired again.  Mixture should be cooked down
     until it looks a little tan looking.  Remove from heat.

     4. Mirliton shells can be filled with mixture or place finished mixture in a baking
     pan.   Sprinkle lightly with bread crumbs and bake in 375 degree until
     bread crumbs are browned; about 15 to 20 minutes.  (Another way to do
     this place under broiler until bread crumbs are browned; about 5 minutes;
     keep close eye on mixture when doing it this way.  Can burn quickly.)

     NOTE:  You can use any type of meat you desire; shrimp, ham, ground meat.
     You can also mix two or three together (example:  shrimp/ham;
     ground meat/ham; ground meat alone or ham alone).

      GOOD LUCK AND HOPE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THE RECIPE
