Hi I just noticed this. You now have another 15 votes of 5 stars from the all the computers in my lab at work

YOU ROCK Uncle Bob!!! Daily rating needed. This is going to be a long friggen six weeks!!

I've had bad experiences with Kenmore too, especially a Kenmore Elite washer that lasted just 5 years

Anyway i spent 20 mins and my morning coffee in our lab voting, got you back from 4th place into 3rd

You are a doll!

Yes the dishwasher is a Kenmore Elite!! Under 4 years old, had the repair guys in at least once a year. That thing was not cheap either!! So much for top of the line.

If I win I get a Whirlpool one. My mother has informed me she'd rather have the fridge anyway...LOL.

OK, you got my vote... your recipe looks delish, but I'm already modifying it in my head to match my diet requirements, since I can't used anything Pillsbury, or commercial canned soups, or cream cheese....

But I used to love casseroles with biscuits on top, and there's no such thing as too much cheese!

Thanks Kira! I don't normally use pillsbury biscuits to make it but for the purposes of this contest I had to adjust. Normally I'll make some pie dough and make real pies, or I'll make my own biscuits from scratch.

The soups? Yeah...I still use those but working on an alternative, I haven't had the time yet to do so though. I hate how much salt is in the canned soups (amongst other things), but it does make for a tasty combination.

Let me know what you come up with to replace the soup with...would love some ideas. I have in the past made this with soy cheddar cheese (for hubby), and it turned out quite well. Not as much oompff but still pretty good. I think one could use some goat cheese in it combined with the soy cheddar to get more of a zing if needed for dietary restrictions, and using pecorino cheese (the italian goat type of parmagean).

Just voted for you. Strangely enough, I made a chicken casserole last night that was somewhat similar. l used Parmesan cheese and cream cheese, and used leftover chicken and gravy. Everything was from scratch. Topped it with tea biscuit recipe from my Better Homes and Gardens and it didn't last long. Good dish for the guy out combining the corn though. Hope you do well in the contest. Hard to beat chocolate truffles tho.........darn them anyway!:)

My inclination would be to use some dry curd cottage cheese -- I think Western Dairy makes one in Canada (I can ask the Canadian members on my SCD list if you're interested) with 0 carbs, and that means it's lactose-free. I'd whip it smooth with a hand-blender, probably add a few pinches of sage or my homemade poultry seasoning. DCCC can be had either salt added or salt free. I use mostly salt-free -- got into the habit because of my Mom -- and then just add a small amount of salt to it to make it the way I want it. If the whipped DCCC is too thick for your purposes, I'd thin it with water or homemade chicken stock to get the thickness I wanted.

<g> No soy cheddar for me... I stop breathing if I eat soy, and since I'm somewhat fond of breathing....

Fresh Parmesan and sharp cheddar together is yummy -- I make an almond flour muffin with those two added. Which would probably make a good topping for the casserole.

If you make your own pie crust, here's something I used to make:

1 cup flour
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1/4-1/3 cup fresh peanut butter
pinch or two salt

Mix flour and cheddar cheese. Cut in peanut butter as for a pie crust (peanut-butter = shortening) and prepare dough. Roll out very thin and cut into bite-size squares, Bake on a cookie sheet at 300F until lightly browned. May wish to salt lightly when they first come out of the oven. Allow to cool. REAL peanut butter and cheese crackers!

Yumm. Those sound good!! Will have to try.

My daily boorass to remind everyone to vote.

Just checking in to see how Froro's Stuffing-the-Cyber-Ballet-Box Campaign---ooops, I meant "Baking Challenge"----is coming along.

Seriously, more power to you, Froro... and maid service too!


P.S. All your baked creations look absolutely wonderful!

I'm not stuffing as bad as some. Seriously...over 400 votes to Deborah in less than 10 minutes! hmpf!

Thanks SWS!! I think I'm going to have to be baking a lot of cookies to send out as thank yous when this is done.



edit that...over 600 votes in 20 minutes. Nothing like making it too obvious!!

scratch that. almost 900 votes . I know how to do it too but not going to chance disqualification thank you very much!!

Just may have to boycott Deborah's entire arsenal of baked goodies from now on...

But if anyone ever needs high-volume IP-spoofed vote-casting scripts... Deborah might have an inkling.


Drum roll and a bump for those so inclined: http://www.bakingchallenge.ca/recipes/82161242af/
