PEANUT BUTTER REFRIGERATOR
COOKIES
Makes about 5 dozen cookies
½ cup butter or margarine, at room temperature (1 stick; see note)
3/4 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter, at room temperature
2 eggs
1-1/4 cups firmly packed brown sugar
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
Beat butter or margarine, peanut butter and eggs for a few minutes;
beat in sugar and eat until mixture is light and very well-combined.
Sift flour with baking soda and salt; add to butter mixture, mixing
well. Form the dough into 2-inch rolls, roll up in wax paper or
aluminum foil, and store in refrigerator until firm. Or put the rolls
in a freezer bag and seal, freezing until needed. When ready to bake,
preheat oven to 375 degrees. Unwrap dough and slice about ¼-inch
thick. Place on greased baking sheet.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until a delicate brown.
Note: Use real butter or stick margarine that's at least 80 percent
fat. Do not substitute reduced-fat spreads; their higher water content
often yields less-satisfactory results.

Impossibly Easy Chicken Pot
Pie (Betty Crocker)
Makes 6 servings
"This pot pie couldn't be easier. It's loaded with chicken and
vegetables in a
creamy sauce and baked under an impossibly easy crust."
Ingredients
1 2/3 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
1 cup cut-up cooked chicken
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup Original Bisquick® mix
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
Directions
1. Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Mix vegetables, chicken and soup in
ungreased glass pie plate, 9x1x1/4-inches.
2. Stir together remaining ingredients with fork until blended. Pour
into pie plate.
3. Bake 30 minutes or until golden brown.
High Altitude (3500-6500 ft): Heat oven to 425 degrees F.
Betty's Tips:
Add more flavor by stirring 1/2 teaspoon of your favorite dried herb
into the veggie mixture. Oregano, basil, thyme and dill weed are all
great choices.
Have leftovers from another meal? You can substitute leftover turkey
for the chicken and the same amount of cooked vegetables for the
thawed frozen vegetables, if you like. Change the flavor by using
another variety of condensed creamy soup.

Subject: Soups
Egg Drop Soup
Serves 4
Ingredients
1-1/2 quart chicken broth, or clear soup stock
2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed in 1/4 cup of cold water
2 eggs, slightly beaten with a fork
2 scallions, chopped, including green ends
Directions
Bring soup stock to a boil. Slowly pour in the cornstarch mixture
while stirring the stock, until the stock thickens. Reduce heat so
stock just simmers. Pour in the eggs slowly while stirring the soup.
As soon as the last bit of egg is in, shut off heat at once. Serve
with chopped scallions on top.
Substitutions and Variations:
Tomato Egg-Drop soup is just a variation of plain egg-drop soup. The
added tartness of tomatoes gives this soup an extra "zing" and
helps
to pick up sagging appetites. The addition of 1 medium-size can of
stewed tomatoes is all that is needed. Bring stock to a boil. Add
the tomatoes. (Mash the tomatoes if the pieces are too large.) When
soup boils again, add the cornstarch mixture as before. Add the eggs
while stirring. Shut off heat at once and serve topped with the
chopped scallions.

WONTON SOUP (from Weight Watchers Cookbook)
Serves 4 (about 3/4 cup of soup and 5 wontons each)
Ingredients
2 oz. cooked ground pork
1/4 cup chopped scallions (green onions)
2 teaspoons Teriyaki sauce
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
20 wonton wrappers (3 x 3-inch squares)
SOUP:
2-3/4 quarts water, divided
3 packages instant chicken broth and seasoning mix
1 cup shredded spinach
1/4 cup thinly sliced mushrooms
WONTONS: In small bowl combine pork, scallions, teriyaki sauce,
cornstarch and ginger, mixing well. Spoon an equal amount of pork
mixture (about 1/2 teaspoon) onto center of each wonton wrapper;
moisten edges of wrappers with water and fold wrappers in half,
triangle-fashion, enclosing filling and forming 20 wontons. Press
edges together to seal; bring base corners of each triangle together,
overlapping corners, and press to seal. Cover and refrigerate until
ready to use.
SOUP: In 3-quart saucepan bring 2 quarts water to a boil. Add
wontons; when wontons rise to surface, cook for 1 minute longer.
Using slotted spoon, remove wontons to plate and set aside. Discard
cooking liquid. In 1-quart saucepan bring remaining 3 cups water to a
boil; add broth mix and stir to dissolve. Add spinach and mushrooms
and cook for 1 minute; add wontons and cook until heated through.
