I didn't get any recipes to try for the dinner with my brother and his family so I decided to make things we used to eat as kids. It was a big hit. The Russian sister-in-law begged for the second recipe. I thought I would share a couple of the recipes with you...

The smell of this recipe cooking is almost as good as eating it. It is also a good topping for baked potatoes, macaroni, etc.
