BLINTZ SOUFFLE CASSEROLE

Pour half the BATTER in the baking dish. Pour all of the FILLING on top of the BATTER, then cover the Filling with the remaining BATTER. The top BATTER will not evenly cover the top, but that's OK.

PORK CHOPS AND ZUCCHINI A LA PEG BRACKEN

Steps:

• Combine the pork chop breading ingredients - flour, Parmesan cheese, salt, dill weed and pepper -in a plastic or small paper bag. Shake the pork chops in the mixture and SAVE WHAT'S LEFT IN THE BAG. (Can you tell I didn't do that one time?) Brown the chops on both sides in a little bit of oil in a skillet large enough for the chops to nestle together in a single layer. If you choose a pan you can also serve in, life is even easier. Once they're browned and "nestled", slice the two onions and spread them over the chops; add 1/3 cup of water, cover the pan and simmer over low heat for 25 minutes. Remove the cover and add the zucchini, sliced (I slice it 1/2" to 3/4" thick). Now go back to that bag of ingredients that you've saved; add the additional 3 Tb Parmesan cheese, the 1/2 tsp paprika and the 1/2 tsp dill weed. Shake it up to mix it all together and sprinkle the concoction over everything in the pan. DON'T STIR. Just let it sit there on top of the zucchini. Replace the cover and simmer for another 15 minutes. All done. Serve "as is.".

THE MOST TENDER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Turn oven on and set at 350 degrees.
• Mix the first 7 ingredients together thoroughly. Using your hands is the best way to get it done. Form meat into a loaf shape and place in a baking dish.
• Place the meatloaf in the oven bake for 60 minutes.
• While meatloaf is in the oven, mix the final 3 ingredients together.
• After the 60 minutes, remove the meatloaf from the oven and spread the ketchup topping over the loaf.
• Place back in the oven for 15 minutes.
• Note: Make sure meat is cooked. You don't want to eat rare pork. Also, the meatloaf serves up easiest if you let it rest a few minutes before slicing.
