After meat has cooked (either in oil or margarine), remove to serving plate and increase skillet temperature to 375 degrees. Add flour to make a thick paste. Season with salt and pepper and cook about 3 minutes. Add enough milk to make desires consistency.
When meat has cooked, remove to serving plate and increase temperature in skillet. Add mushrooms and saute until cooked. Add enough flour to pan to make a paste. Cook and stir about 3 minutes. Add milk as needed to reach desired consistency.
If you use a wire whisk you are less likely to get lumpy gravy and will be able to add milk more easily if it becomes too thick.
Heat drippings from roast in pan the roast was cooked in. When they are heated and boiling, stir in mixture of 1 cup water to 1/2 cup flour that has been stirred or shaken vigorously to remove lumps. Use as much as necessary for desired consistency or thickness. Bring to boil. Season with salt and pepper and/or add Kitchen Bouquet- just a couple of drops.
Water may be added to pan to remove browned drippings at the very first. When making gravy, reserve some of the water the giblets have been cooked in to make more gravy.
Brown hamburger, add onions and cook until onion are done. Boil 1 package of spaghetti until tender. Drain and add can of tomatoes and mushrooms. Add cream cheese in small chunks, mix and season with remaining ingredients.
Wash frying chicken parts, melt margarine in large skillet until it starts to brown. Roll chicken pieces in flour and place skin side down in skillet. When first side has browned, turn and brown second side. Add salt and pepper to taste. Lower heat and continue cooking for crispy chicken. Or add a small amount of water, cover and cook slowly for softer chicken. Cook for about 45 minutes.
Cook fettucini per package directions. (I like the spinach fettucini) Drain cooked fettucini and add margarine. When margarine has melted add half and half and about 1/2 cup parmesan cheese. Toss lightly.
Spray 9x13 inch pan with non stick spray. Brown hamburger, add onion and cook until onion is translucent. Place half the tortillas in bottom of pan, spread to fit as well as possible. Add drained hamburger and spread evenly. Pour undrained beans evenly over hamburger and add sliced or grated cheese over beans.
Place remainder of the tortillas over the cheese. Mix the tomatoes, chicken soup, salsa and pour evenly over tortillas.
Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees. This freezes well. You should not use an aluminum pan since the tomato and chilies will eat through the pan-that is experience talking!
Combine all ingredients and bring to boil. Simmer for 10 minutes.
For barbecued chicken, place chicken in 9x13 inch pan, pour barbecued sauce over, cover and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
For barbecued pork ribs, put ribs on rack in baking pan and bake at 400 degrees doe 45 minutes to 1 hour. Drain off all fat. Remove rack and pour barbecue sauce over ribs. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. I usually cover the pans with foil to prevent over browning.
Place lemon juice and milk in a cup. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add shortening, banana and sour milk mixture; mix until all flour is dampened. Beat vigorously for 2 minutes. Add eggs; beat 2 minutes longer. Stir in walnuts. Bake in 2 greased and floured (I use Pam/ flour spray.) 9 inch round pans in 350 degree oven for 35 minutes. Cool 10 minutes in pans then remove from pan. Frost with sour cream frosting.
Beat eggs, add oil, sugar and zucchini. Sift dry ingredients together, add to wet mixture; add nuts or a few raisins if desired. Grease 2 loaf pans and flour. (I use the Pam spray with flour added. It works really well)
Bake at 325 degrees for 60 to 65 minutes.

Paper Loaf Bread Pans (purchase at Sur La Table) These are such a neat and fancy way to gift breads, other than the typical tin loaf pans. I haven't used them yet, but am going to.
