Why the change...this month I have spending some time cooking for other families and I thought about how helpful this can be to someone. It is so heart warming when you see an email list to sign-up for a meal to take to a family and it is filled up. Wow, people are so generous!! It got me thinking what do people make?? I would love to know!
I will share with you one thing I started making along with a main meal of lasagna is breakfast. I made a plate of Raisin Bran Muffins. They appeared to be a hit and I was asked to send them the recipe. The fabulous thing about this recipe is it makes a lot and stores for up to 6 weeks in the fridge. Plus, the kids love them!!
Raisin Bran Muffins
4 eggs beaten
5 cups unsifted all-purpose flour (I used wheat)
1 quart buttermilk
1 cup cooking oil
5 teaspoons baking soda
3 cups of sugar (you can cut this back to 2.5 cups)
15-ounce box of raisin bran flakes
Combine all ingredients well, and refrigerate at least overnight. Batter will keep as long as six weeks. Spoon desired amount of batter into greased muffin tins. Bake a 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. Makes 5 dozen muffins.

I guess I didn't make as many "gift" things this last month. I can't wait to come back and see what other people have linked up.
Yay! Those muffins are so very delicious! I am excited that you posted the recipe. Now, I just need to get motivated and make them . . . ;-)
I often find myself making soups when I bring meals. Chicken soup with potato salad. Salmon Chowder with Homemade Bread. Tortellini Soup with Baked Potatoes.
BTW I think the muffin idea is great!!
What a wonderful idea with the muffins. I have a great muffin recipe I haven't used in ages (it resembles a jelly doughnut when finished). I'll have to dust it off and make a few batches as gifts to friends :)
