CHOCOLATE GRAVY

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Courtney Breakfast
Chocolate American

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 tb Cocoa
1 c Sugar
2 tb Flour
2 c Milk
2 tb Butter
2 ts Vanilla Extract

Mix the cocoa, sugar, and flour together. Add the
milk, making sure it mixes smoothly. Heat (medium)
and stir constantly until it thickens. This takes
about 8 minutes. Take off of heat. Add butter. Stir
until it is melted and mixed. Add vanilla and stir
until mixed.

Serve hot over buttered biscuits. Buttered toast will
do in a pinch.

Notes: This is an almost lost Ozark classic. It hardly
ever shows up in ethnic or regional cookbooks.

If this cools, it becomes something else: chocolate
pudding!

Chocolate gravy is a great way to make sure your kids
get their minimum daily requirement of sugar!

Caramelized Onion Soup

Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Crockpot Low Fat
Main Dishes Soups/Stews
Vegetables Want To Try
Eat-Lf Mailing List

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 C Caramelized Onions – Lora Brody
To 4 C, Thickly Sliced
3 C Onion Cooking Liquid
3 C Nonfat Veg Chicken Broth, Low Sod — Note 1
Salt And Pepper — To Taste
8 Slices French Bread
Thick Slices, Toasted
Grated Swiss Cheese

Note 1: Original recipe used regular chicken, beef or vegetable broth

Lora’s way:
Combine the onions, cooking liquid and broth in a large pot placed over
moderate heat. (I had 2 C of the onion cooking liquid after cooking them
down in the crockpot so I used an extra 1 1/2 C of water). Stir
occasionally as the soup comes to a simmer. Add salt and pepper to taste
(I didn’t add any salt or pepper as I didn’t think it needed it). Preheat
the broiler to high with the rack in the upper part of the oven. Select 8
oven proof bowls and place them on a sturdy baking sheet or in a rimmed
roasting pan. Ladle the hot soup into the bowls and top with a slice of
toast. Sprinkle generously with cheese and broil until the cheese melts
and begins to bubble (I didn’t use the cheese).

Serve immediately.

This is wonderful!! Fabulous aroma and wonderful rich flavor.
