Can you substitute the cream with something else, like milk or yoghurt? I’m not a big fan of cream…
Hi Chanelle, you can use this recipe to substitute 1 cup
3/4 cup milk
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted and cooled
Combine and whisk well.
Thanks Chantell.. I’ll post a new one later today.
This is such great recipes…Thanks so much, a life saver I would say!!
Keep them rolling in…
Agreed, but winter is nearly over… only 5 weeks left
Thats a great idea as my husband does shift work and there is nothing worse than coming home and having to cook just for one, when thats the case I would rather just have a snack but in winter its not that great one would rather have a hot meal.
Haha, I have been doing a bit of that lately!!
If you have some small casserole dishes, make a few and freeze them.
Once a again great recipe, they sounds easy enough to make even for one.
