Jeff's Mom, Ivey's Creamy Mac and Cheese






Hebrews 12:
28 Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe,
29 for our God is a consuming fire.




Jeff's Momma's Mac and Cheese
Boil noodles like normal, add some salt. When noodles are tender, drain and rinse, then pour back in pan. Cut and add 1 large full box of the Velvetta cheese and any other cheese you may have in frig, add milk and warm to melt all the cheese. Stirring constantly. Lick spoon then redip to taste and make sure if needs more salt or pepper. When cheese is melted, pour into a buttered casserole dish, lick spoon again. If it does not have much milk in it, add more, you want it alittle juicy. You may need to add more salt & pepper to taste. lick spoon again. Cover the top with a thick layer of Shredded Mild Cheddar cheese, I usualy have a whole bag ontop of mine. In a separte bowl beat 2 eggs (don't lick the fork unless you like the taste of raw eggs) then pour egg mixture lightly all over cheese topping. After poured all over, fork the egg into the mac n cheese, do not stir it into it. You may have to add more cheese. As you can tell I like to use alot of cheese. Sometimes mine is never the same as it depends on what cheese I have in the house. Bake on 350 for about 30 minutes or until top gets brown. But you may want to really think if you want to let anyone else try it because when they do, there is no getting away from doing it again and again lol They will hound you especially on holidays to make it. So be extremely careful on who you let taste it LOL
* I used 2 boxes noodles
Biggest block velveeta
Large block mozzarella 
Milk & half/half to make juicy
Topped with 2 eggs & block of sharp cheddar 
Made a deep, large pan
* shred your block cheese in food processor* 

Chinese Red Dipping Sauce




Is.26:3-9
3 You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.
4 Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock.
5 For he has humbled the inhabitants of the height, the lofty city. He lays it low, lays it low to the ground, casts it to the dust.
6 The foot tramples it, the feet of the poor, the steps of the needy."
7 The path of the righteous is level; you make level the way of the righteous.
8 In the path of your judgments, O LORD, we wait for you; your name and remembrance are the desire of our soul.
9 My soul yearns for you in the night; my spirit within me earnestly seeks you. For when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

Pear Fontina Walnut Tartlets














Hebrews 10:31
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.



Crescent Rolls, cut out circles to fit mini baking pans, reserve scraps to re-roll to make more circles
1 large sweet pear, peeled and chopped into tiny pieces, salted and peppered
3/4 c of Fontina cheese, chopped into tiny pieces
3/4 c of Walnuts, chopped tiny
Honey, to drizzle tops of filled mini tart shells

Using a Pam sprayed mini muffin pan, 12 count, place crescent roll circles in bottom. Place a few pieces of pear, then cheese and then the walnuts. Drizzle with honey. Bake 350 degrees until slightly browned, 20-25 minutes. Let cool in the pan, then remove. 



*** The third batch, I tried it a little different. I softened 3 T of cream cheese and added 1 1/2 t of honey and whipped it with a fork. I used this instead of the fontina. Layer the same, pears, honey-cream cheese mixture and walnuts. It was very good! It yielded 3 pans of tarts.
