Baked Sauerkraut with Roast Turkey
(Also good with chicken or pork.)

Side dishes, mashed potatoes, or rice and apple sauce.
I usually double the dish for four to eight people.

1 lb Sauerkraut
1 stick of butter
1/2 cup of raisins
1/2 to 3/4 cup tomato sauce

In a colander rinse the sauerkraut well, several times.
In a pot melt a stick of butter.
Add the sauerkraut and raisins and tomato sauce.
Stir well.
Allow it to cook on medium heat for at least half an hour.
Stirring occasionally
Empty into a baking dish.
I cut the end of the uncooked turkey wings and place them on top of the Sauerkraut,
because it adds to the flavor when you bake.
Bake in a 350 oven for at least 35 to 40 minutes, or until slightly brown.
Depends on your oven as to how long it will take to brown.

Serve it with your Roast Turkey. We love it.

Shrimp Scorpio

3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 tsp. sugar
2 cups minced onion
2 cups fresh or canned tomatoes chopped
2tsp. minced garlic
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1tablespoon finely minced dill, {Opt}
1 lb. medium sized shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4tsp. dry mustard
1 cup crumbled feta cheese

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Heat oil in a saucepan and add onions. Cook stirring, until the onion begins to golden
Add garlic, parsley, dill, mustard, sugar, tomatoes and tomato sauce. Simmer 30 min.
Do not add any salt. Add shrimp to sauce and cook for three minutes. Pour the
mixture into a 1 1/2 quart casserole and sprinkle with crumbled cheese. Bake for 5 minutes
or until cheese melts. Recipe calls for serving immediately. I wait a little while for flavors
to blend, then I serve it.
Sometimes I serve it with rice or orzo. Other times italian bread and a salad and of course wine.

Grilled Rib Lamb Chops

These are great grilled outside on grill medium rare or medium.

1 rack of lamb {6 to 8} rib chops.
1/4 cup olive oil
handful of chopped fresh parsley
3 fresh cloves of garlic, chopped
salt and pepper
oregano and some lemon juice

Wash and dry chops. Separate them with a sharp knife.
In a small bowl mix rest of ingredients.
Place chops in a plastic bag and add the marinade.
Close bag and allow chops to marinate for a few hours turning the bag now and then.
My son Rick has grilled as many as 40 chops on our outdoor grill.
Multiply ingredients if more racks of lamb are used.
