Romance Writers Weekly ~ Favorite Holiday Recipes ~ #LoveChatWrite

This week, on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop, we're asked to, "Share a favourite holiday recipe."

So, my only real problem with sharing recipes is that I almost never measure. So trying to explain what I do is problematic. Also, I think I shared my cranberry recipe last year and that's the easiest-to-measure one.

So, let's try this. In my husband's family it is known as potato cake. You start with mashed potatoes. I'm not going to tell you how to do that, or how much you need to make--it's your holiday gathering, not mine. What I do, is boil potatoes, scald some milk on the stove, add some butter and green and/or grated onions and let it come almost to a boil. I add that and more cream and butter to the potatoes, mash them, add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. Nutmeg adds flavor to so many things.!

Next, I add mozzarella cut into cubes and mixed in well. Also grated parmesan cheese and Italian seasonings...to taste? I really don't know. You want enough cheese that it's really obvious. Then beat an egg and add that to the potato mixture. Turn the whole thing out into a buttered baking dish, dot with butter, cover with bread crumbs, and bake at 350ish degrees until the cheese has melted and the breadcrumbs have browned and (if there's enough butter) it's bubbling around the edges.
