Texicalli Crab & Shrimp, Reuben Bake, Curry Tuna Spread
TEXICALLI CRAB & SHRIMP ¼ lb. frozen baby shrimp or salad pieces, chopped ¼ lb. shredded crab meat or artificial crab meat shredded 2 T. lemon juice 1 c. chopped dill pickle 4 T. dill pickle brine 2 ½ T. grated horse radish 1 - 12 oz. bottle chili sauce 1 (6-8) oz. can tomato paste 2 - 8 oz. bricks cream cheese Mix all the ingredients except cream cheese together well. Divide into two portions. Spoon each portion over a brick of cream cheese and serve with crackers. Shrimp and crab sauce freezes well for later use. The sauce part can be frozen for use later. I usually only put out 1/2 of a brick of cream cheese and 1/4 of this recipe at a time. REUBEN BAKE 8 oz. Swiss cheese (shredded) 1/2 lb. corned beef (chopped) 1 c. mayonnaise 16 oz sauerkraut (rinsed and drained) 1 med. onion (minced) 1 loaf party rye 1 loaf party pumpernicke Mix all ingredients together. Bake in covered bowl or casserole dish at 350 F for 30 minutes. Serve bubbling hot and spoon on to slices of party rye or pumpernickel. CURRY TUNA SPREAD 2 (6 ½ oz.) tuna in oil ½ c. raisins chopped ¼ c. peanuts chopped ¼ c. onion chopped ¼ c. green onion chopped ¼ c. plain yogurt ½ c. mayonnaise 1 tsp. lemon juice ¼ tsp. salt ½ tsp. curry powder Drain tuna well. Discard oil. (Most cats and dogs love it as a treat). Blend all ingredients together well. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours. Serve on toast points or crackers.
Thank you so much Bea for the lovely recipes. Since I cant be at the open house I am still going to try a few things on your mouth watering menu. Hope the open house is a sucess. ty Brooke
Thanks Brooke. It poured rain all day, (There goes the snow), but folks seemed to enjoy themselves. We didn't have many left overs, so that's a sign that they enjoyed the food at least. I hope you enjoy these recipes. The curried tuna sounds strange, but it really does taste great, (if you like curry).
