Hey Grandpa, What's for Supper? Part 2

[thechickenchick]

OK! I figured out what to have. This was one of my Dads favorite things my Mom cooked. I made it for my DH the first time this summer. He loved it, and its cheap!! Bonus! Its a German thing called a Runsia. Really easy!

You can use frozen bead dough. I use my bread machine.
For my family of 3 I use
half head of cabbage shreded
Half med size onion chopped
1 pound burger
salt and pepper

Brown burger and onion, add salt and pepper. When brown add shredded cabbage and a little water to pan.Cover and let simmer until cabbage is soft but not mushy. (cabbage will cook a little more in oven) Using rolling pin roll out a section of dough(about dinner roll size). Then put a scoop of filling on bread. Bring edges together to seal. Put on baking sheet seam side down. Brush with egg and bake about 15 minutes. Can serve with brown gravy but my DH perfers ketchup!

Have the chicken carcass simmering on the stove- I think I will make the broth into a creamy wild rice soup...

I am so excited that you are going to make it for your family! You can use fresh made dough. Thats how I did it about 20 minutes ago. Then I just put them in the fridge until about 45 minutes before I plan to bake them. Let me know what you think of them!

thechickenchick - that sounds delicious! Thanks.

Potato soup with cottage-dill bread for us tonight. Egg custard for desert (I thought egg production slowed in the winter!

).

Aneesa - glad you're back! I know those critters keep you busy, but you've been missed.

Does anyone know when the Big Delete is going to happen?

I wonder if we could save them ourselves. If they'd allow us a little bit of time, perhaps we could each take about 20 pages of the thread and copy any recipes into a new document. Since most of our posts are more statements of what we had, it may not take all that long.

What do you think?

So, no one is up for joining me in this task? Just for fun, I went through about the first 5 or 6 pages of the thread in a few moments and found only a handful of recipes. Best way I could figure that we could do it would be to open the old thread, minimize it, then open a new thread. Then, it'd just be a matter of copy & paste.

If we did this, we'd probably want to put the recipes in a different thread than this one. Otherwise, we'd just be saving this thread next spring.

But, if no one is interested, I guess we'll just let them go.

I am pretty computer illiterate but I would be willing to try and help.

It's not all that hard.

1. Open up the old thread, then minimize it.
2. Log in again to BYC, open up the new thread. Click reply. Minimize.
3. Open up the old thread again, scroll through your assigned pages. If you find a recipe, copy it.
4. Open up the new thread again and paste it into the reply window. Submit.
5. Repeat.

I'll be happy to create the new thread if others are willing to join in and help save the recipes

I'm just guessing here, but it would appear that it'd take less than 15 minutes to do 20 pages. If just 20 of us would dedicate 15 minutes of time, we could save all of the recipes before the Big Delete. And, it really wouldn't matter if we got them out of order.

Plus, we could paste our new recipes over there as well so that we wouldn't have to do this again.

Thanks! You can count me in. Is anyone else interested or is it just us!?

I'm just going to start it. I'm sure as others see how easy it is (and the whole idea of rescuing our recipes) they'll join in. We need to move quickly though.

I'm off to get it started!
