Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Almond Pinecones


appetizers, dips

1 1/4 cup whole natural almonds
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise
5 slice bacon; cooked and crumbled
1 tablespoon green onion; chopped
1/2 teaspoon dill weed
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Spread almonds in a single layer in shallow pan. Bake at 300F, 15 minutes, stirring often, until almonds just begin to turn color. Combine cream cheese (let soften first) and mayonnaise; mix well. Add bacon, onion, dill and pepper; mix well. Cover and chill overnight. To serve, Form cheese mixture into shapes of 2 pinecones on serving platter. Beginning at narrow end, press almonds at slight angle into cheese mixture in rows. Continue overlapping rows until all cheese is covered. Garnish with artificial pine sprigs. Serve with crackers. Makes 1 1/2 cups.
