Clarisse Luncheon November 11th, 2019

This is our cook for November

Her name is Cook Clarisse

she made us a delicious lunch.

We are sorry Nancy couldn't join us but 

it was Veterans Day and they were invited

for visit family.  You were missed Nancy.

Thanks Clarisse for the wonderful lunch

and fun time visiting and catching up with

all going on in town and out of town.

Our baby Pat, had to have shoulder surgery,

and not fun but she made it to the luncheon. She did great and the doc

got her all fixed up.  Had to have

open surgery and that is not fun.

This was a fantastic luncheon, and I loved it.

Clarisse Surprise Potato Casserole from Mary Ann 

This is really good thanks Clarisse for your old

Family recipe.

4 pounds of russet potatoes cut into ¼ inch cubes

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

6 tablespoons butter, cubed

1 (8oz) package shredded cheese, I used Monterey 

Jack cheese or whatever cheese you like

1 (8oz) bottle Ranch dressing

Heat oven to 400 degrees

Grease 9x13 pan

Put potatoes in the baking dish and season

with the the seasoning above or do your own thing

Put all in the baking dish be sure and evenly put the butter over the whole thing.

Cover dish with foil and bake one hour in a preheated over, until potatoes are tender, remove from oven and mix in the cheese and Ranch dressing and cook for 10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.

From Clarisse below: 

My sister gave me this recipe and I have used it a lot.

I think I could use the cubed frozen potatoes instead of the other kind? But need to figure out how much to buy in place of 4 pounds of russet potatoes.  Any ideas on that ladies?

I asked for the BBQ rib recipe and Clarisse said just wing it.  It was so good, and

she did a great job on the BBQ.
