I was wondering if anyone has a recipe for any of the gingerbread cookies from the Grand Floridian gingerbread house? I love those cookies as we got them for our Christmas Eve cookies for Santa in 2006 and 2008 when we were in WDW. Unfortunately, by the time we got there for both stays, all of the recipe cards were gone. :( Does anyone know of any other place to get the recipe or can share it? I am so sad that we won't be in WDW this Christmas! There is nothing better than WDW at Christmas!

But I'm trying to cut back on calories and fat so I'm looking for a substitute.
Skim milk doesn't do it -- it lacks that depth and richness and adds no taste.
I tried fat free half & half -- liked it until I discovered that it doesn't wash out of my coffee mugs. They come out of the dishwasher with a white film in them that looks like I painted them with glue. (It's not on the other dishes, so I have to assume it's the ffh&h, not the dishwasher) Yuk -- makes me wonder what it does to me!

Island Kielbasa :facelick:

While my attempt at the recipe was okay, it was not as good as my friend's. I used turkey kielbasa and it was just a little bit...okay, a lot...more salty than I would have liked. (we're pretty much a salt-free family unless it's for steak on the grill or corn-on-the-cob) Apparently, turkey kielbasa has a lot more salt than 'regular' kielbasa. Another way I probably could have lowered the salt content may have been to use a ketchup with less sodium. I would definitely recommend reading the reviews/comments/suggestions that are listed beneath the recipe. ]]> The Kitchen: Food, Recipes, and Good Health DyanKJ130 http://www.passporterboards.com/forums/kitchen-food-recipes-good-health/208495-island-kielbasa.html http://www.passporterboards.com/forums/kitchen-food-recipes-good-health/208481-cast-iron-fry-pans.html Mon, 09 Nov 2009 18:03:09 GMT I have recently been given my mother in laws collection of cast iron fry pans.

A Year of Slow Cooking: Slow Cooker Baked Potato Soup Recipe

I used my slow cooker but you could easily make it on the stove!

The potato soup turned out so yum! I didn't quite use 5 lbs and I only used 1 1/2 qts of broth and 12 oz cream cheese.

I topped it off with shredded cheese, bacon, and fresh chives.

It seemed like there was a lot when it was finished DH and I had about 2 bowls (lunch and dinner) (even my picky 3 year old) had seconds and there is only a tiny bit left (which I hid in the back of the refrigerator) so I can have some to take to work for lunch!
