I'm looking for some appetizer recipes. What do you have?

This recipe would be for those that really like sweet potatoes. I saw a recipe in a new cook book I got and it was for sweet potato soup. I thought I'd give it a try and see what it tasted like. I can honestly say, it was different, but I liked it and so did R. It was really simple to make.

Sweet Potato Soup

1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
1/2 cup chopped celery (1 stalk)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon butter
1 sweet potato, peeled and cubed (about 2 cups)
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/2 cups half and half or light cream
1 tablespoon maple syrup
sour cream (optional)

In a dutch oven, cook onion, celery and garlic in hot butter over medium heat until onion is tender but not brown. Add sweet potato, broth and nutmeg, bring to boiling.Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 20 minutes or until potato is tender. Remove from heat, cool slightly.

Transfer mixture to a blender or food processor. Cover and blend or process until smooth. Return all soup to the dutch oven. Stir in cream and maple syrup; heat through. If desired top each serving with sour cream and nutmeg.

this is the bomb but only cut the bread in half not 3 pcs

16 pieces white bread with crusts trimmed
Bacon
6 oz. cream cheese
1/2 lb. sausage, browned and drained

Mix sausage and cream cheese; spread on bread. Roll into a roll lengthwise. Cut in three piece. Wrap with enough bacon to reach around and place cut end of bacon down on cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. These may be frozen and reheated.

June, thank you for the healthy treats.
Blaze, thank you for what sounds like a divine yumminess!
Wolfy, is that soup sweet or savory?

Blade · 01-11-2010, 05:21 PM

You are welcome and that is exactly the word that came out of my mouth at a Christmas party when I first tasted it.
OH MAN THAT IS DIVINE!

Okay so I have to ask. Was the person who made that from the south? Because that's got southern written ALL over it. Bacon AND Cream Cheese AND Sausage AND White Bread?

'Dusa! Quick! You want this recipe.

Chuckling...yes ma'am she was very southern. But guess what you can make and freeze them so I make them on Sunday and take a few to work with me for breakfast.

These make great appetizers. Easy to make. And delicious.

One package of frozen potato and onion pierogies.
Five Roma tomatoes chopped finely
One clove of garlic finely chopped
Handful of fresh basil torn up
Salt to taste
Sprinkle of nutmeg
Butter for cooking pierogies.

Melt three tablespoons of butter in a frying pan. Add pierogies and brown on both sides slowly so they dont burn.

While pierogies are cooking, add remaining ingredients into a saucepan and cook until hot. Do not allow to boil or it will change the fresh flavor of the sauce.

When pierogies are browned remove from pan and put on a serving plate. Top with sauce and serve immediately.

R said to tell you, it's a mild sweetness and think the creaminess makes it drinkable if you pour it into cups when serving. I don't think it could be savory because of the sweet potato.

Oh and forgot to say, I just got another new recipe book in the mail. This one has 175 one dish recipes. I'm looking forward to making some of the recipes I've already looked at.
