Baked in a water bath, this pie has a texture that's more like a custard than a traditional pumpkin pie. In place of canned or fresh pumpkin, I sometimes use cushaw, a type of crookneck squash.
This was one of my favorite dishes growing up and now it is my children's. Ground beef, cheese and tomato sauce are baked into a simply delicious casserole.
Ground beef, chopped onion, egg, and crumbled saltines are combined, seasoned with steak sauce, and baked in a 9 X 13 inch baking dish for about 1 hour.
Mascarpone (mah-skar-POH-nay) is a mild, buttery cow's milk cheese. In this dessert, egg whites are used to make baked meringue cups. The cooled meringues are filled with mascarpone-cocoa mixture and topped with fresh raspberries.
Shepherd's pie is adaptable to almost infinite variations. Here, the basic browned ground beef and potato combination is baked with canned French-style green beans and tomato sauce.
Eggplant slices are dipped in egg and bread crumbs and then baked, instead of fried. The slices are layered with spaghetti sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
