Mardi Gras Mambo
Monday, February 23rd, 2009 | recipes | No Comments
It wasn’t until later this afternoon I realized why I’ve been such a crank ass today– tomorrow’s fat tuesday and I haven’t had any king cake yet. So i remedied that this evening by making two reduced fat Apple and Cream Cheese filled King Cakes. I’m sure there is something wrong with making them reduced fat, but it makes me feel better about eating it so it’ll do. I’m sure mine taste better than the two sad ones in the bakery at Giant this evening.
I have this one on the cake pedestal I bought for $10 at the “garage sale” at Suzie’s Bakery this weekend.

1 can cream of mushroom with roasted garlic

1. Cut off pinched edge of one frozen pie crust and let both crusts defrost
2. Saute garlic and onion in butter, then add c-fish tails and crab boil
3. Cook down and add cream of mushroom soup (At this time place uncut pie crust into 400 degree oven for 7 minutes)
