Layer thin slices of summer
vegetables, cut with a mandolin slicer, with homemade sauce, mushrooms, garlic, and a 1 cup mixture of ricotta cheese, cottage cheese with 1-2 beaten eggs. Layer all and add to 400* oven for 1-1/2 hrs. Top with mozzarella cheese and pop back in the oven for 10 more minutes or until cheese is bubbly.
Boxed pancake mix is only meant to be used as a shortcut. They are essentially asking to be, as my Mom would say, "doctored up." Today we used Jiffy mix and added to the standard recipe on the box.
2 cups Jiffy mix
1 1/4 c milk
2 eggs
2 tbs oil
We did this and ran with it adding
1/2 c ricotta cheese
1/3# smoked pork
and bourbon syrup
1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 c regular sugar
1/4 t real vanilla extract
1/2 c water and
1/4 c bourbon, we used Makers, like there'd be any other.
I had my pancake maker working the grill whilst I was making syrup and building these masterpieces.
Add the sugars and water to a smallish (Tim Halverson-ism) pan on high heat just to boil.
Turn heat down to low, if you're using an electric stove remove while burner cools down. Let syrup barely bubble for 5-7 minutes or so and add bourbon. Stir and let rest while building the stacks.
We added an egg cooked in brown butter, I know all these color distinctions, right?

Sauté some garlic in olive oil, add some chopped red peppers, celery, and onions.
Sauté until onions are translucent.
Mix 2 tbs lime juice, 2 tbs tequila, and 1/2 tsp corn starch and set aside.
Add chopped mango to skillet, then thawed peeled raw shrimp.
When shrimp begins to look pink on bottom, gently flip the shrimps over and cook an additional 2 minutes or so.
Cook just until shrimp is 90% done and move everything to the outer edge of the pan.
Add the tequila mixture to the middle well of the pan and agitate until it thickens.
Mix well and serve over hot cooked whole wheat angel hair pasta.

Combine softened cheeses in a bowl
